[ She lets out a huff, and leans her head back against the wall behind them. ]

I guess.

[ She doesn't think he was wrong about some of it, but boy does she wish he would listen to her about how to behave in a place like this. He might be able to get away with whatever he wanted at home, but ...

She turns to look at Allen again. ]

Still, even there, it was Zuko that made him crack ...

[save_the_souls]

Yeah, it was...

[Sure was a gamble that paid off in Allen's book, to be honest, but he'll look curiously at her]

Are you jealous it wasn't you?

[ino]

Wh --

[ She sits up ]

I'm not -- I'm not jealous! It's just frustrating that something so difficult ...

[ino]

[ She sits back again, folding her arms across her chest. ]

It's like, he didn't even have to try, you know?

[He pauses as he looks at her]

[save_the_souls]

Ah...

[He'll then smile at her]

You've helped a lot of people, Ino. I know you've gotten a lot of people to open up that I never would've been able to do so.

But helping people isn't as simple as just "trying really hard". Everyone's different and has different things they need.

...Maybe Sasuke just needed someone who could understand his past without being part of his past.

[ino]

I know that it's not that simple.

[ It comes out a bit harsh, though, so she takes a breath before continuing, a little softer. ]

And maybe you're right. But it's still frustrating.

[He'll reach over to give a one armed hug]

I know it is.

[Since hey, you guys have been trying to reach out to him since BEFORE Allen met you crazies. So yeah, he could see where it'd be frustrating as hell to have a new guy just waltz in and do it much easier]

[ino]

[ Oh. She ... didn't realize she needed a hug until it happened.

She leans in after a moment. ]

Thanks, Allen.

[He offers a shrug and a smile]

What are friends for?
