Who: Yamanaka Ino
Broadcast: Open
Action: Only the Three Twins
When: Now!

[ no video here, just audio. because she looks terrible. she sounds terrible too, but hey, at least you don't have to look at her, just listen to her sniffles. run away, three twins crew. ]

Yeah, hi, whoever's running this stupid game?

When the HELL are we gonna stop on a planet that has some sort of plant life I can use to make medicine? Or, even better, how about one that's actually advanced enough to have the pre-made medicine to kill whatever this dumb alien bug is?

Don't piss me off. I will find a way to make you regret it.

Sincerely,
Ino ♥

Well, part of running a flower shop is knowing exactly what a plant needs to grow. You can't just throw seeds in some dirt any time you want and expect it to turn out alright!

Maybe we just don't have anybody left who knows how, then.

Where are you from?

A village called Konoha.

How about you?

A village? Like a little one?

I live in a big giant city. I don't even know if we have, like... little villages anymore.

Oh, no, it's not small at all. There's thousands of people living there. In fact, I think Konoha is bigger than pretty much any other village that I know of.

How many people live in your city?

[he yawns and rubs an eye]

Like... all of them.

[ a little laugh ]

All of them? So there's only one city that has people in it?

[kind of a sheepish look]

...That's weird, huh?

--Eh?

[ WAS HE ... NOT JOKING? ]

I mean ... I don't think I've ever heard of that before, no ...

It's just kind of how things are back home, I guess.

But everybody I've talked to here thinks it's weird, so... [he shrugs!]

Is it ... unsafe to be outside the city?

Oh, yeah!

[his eyes get a little wide and he picks his head up so he can look properly spooked]

It's super deadly outside the city. It's all, like... a big killer forest. That's why all the plants and stuff are regulated inside the city.

[he can't remember if he mentioned that part or not...]

Well, that makes a lot more sense, then. It would be awful if someone went out there and got hurt, right?

Well... I think they care more about stuff getting in, but yeah.

There's nothing good out there anyway.

So your whole city is self-sustaining, then? That's pretty impressive.

Well there's like... places where they grow food I guess? Outside of the city somewhere?

...I don't know how it works.

[understatement of the year]

But we can't really grow things in the city, so. There might be flower shops in the nice districts, but I've never seen one.
