Action: optional, but on the caprine
When: rite meow!!!

So, it's September already, which means my birthday is coming up!

I mean, it's technically February back home, but I'm not gonna complain about celebrating my birthday early. Besides, that seems like way too complicated math to try and figure out what it should be.

[It actually is not that complicated. It's the 28th of February where he's from. C'mon Jojo...]

[But then again, this is the guy who struggled at determining the age of someone who was a baby 50 years ago...]

Anyway, I'm gonna be nineteen on the 27th. Just to give you guys the heads up. You know. [He grins.] In case you wanna get me something.

[ Tries really hard not to look smug.




... Fails really hard at not looking smug. ]

The two of you are a little too young for me, as it is.

[nextlineis]

[................]

[...What is that look for?]

Ino, no offense, but I'm really not interested. You know that, right? I mean maybe if you didn't have a boyfriend, but even still. I don't think we're all that compatible.

[ino]

[ You'll find out eventually. But in the meantime ...

Oh my god. ]

Neither of you understand when I'm joking, either.

[nextlineis]

[Oh.]

...Ino, are you sure it's us? I'm starting to think you're just really bad at jokes.

[ino]

Don't make me come over there and hit you.

[nextlineis]

...You wouldn't do that.

[He thinks. He hopes. Please stop hitting him. 8C]

[ino]

[ She just looks into the camera, eyebrows raised. ARE YOU CONFIDENT IN THAT ASSUMPTION, JOJO? ]

[nextlineis]

[Joseph swallows hard.]

...Right?

[ino]

You seem awfully confident in that statement, Jojo.

[nextlineis]

I-I am.

[PLEASE STOP.]

[ino]

Awfully confident. Maybe a little too confident.

[nextlineis]

[He just sorta. You know. Blurts this out.] You can stay where you are!

video -> action LMFAO

[ino]

[ She's past being angry and is now more in trolling territory now, so ...

She disappears from the screen, and pops up right behind him. Ninja teleportation. ]

I'm not hearing a "please".

[nextlineis]

[Joseph jumps so bad he falls right out of his seat and into a heap on the floor with a very undignified yelp.]

Goddammit, Ino! Give a guy a little warning before you do that!

[ino]

[ Sorry, she's laughing too hard to respond. That yelp was A+, 5/5, would terrify again. ]

[nextlineis]

You are such an asshole, you know that?

[He pulls himself back up into his seat.]

[ino]

[ Wiping her eyes. And still giggling a little bit. ]

You weren't totally wrong.

[nextlineis]

[He shakes his head.]

There's something very wrong with you.

[ino]

Wow, now you're really asking for it.

[ Makes a show of cracking her knuckles. ]

[nextlineis]

[He stumbles back out of his seat and holds up his hands.]

Come on, Ino! There's no way in hell I deserve this this time!

[ino]

[ For being so tiny, she sure can do the menacing looming thing pretty well. ]

Didn't your granny ever tell you it's not polite to tell girls they have something wrong with them?

[nextlineis]

[There's definitely floating around Ino.]

I'm pretty sure when Granny Erina talked about girls, she wasn't talking about girls like you.

[ino]

I'm just as much of a girl as any other girl.

Or are you saying I don't look like a girl, either?

[ IT'S A FUCKING TRAP. ]

[nextlineis]

What?! No! I'm not-- I never--

[YOU ARE CRUEL, MADAM.]

[ino]

[ REACHES OVER ....



To pat him on the head. Good puppy. ]

That's better.
