[ah, she's right, of course. it was perhaps a poorly-directed joke. he lowers his arm again managing a small smile. he knows he can't see Nel again, not for a very long time.]

I'll do what I can. And I still meant what I said.

[he sighs, lightly.]

It's been a very tiring week.

[ino]

Yeah, no kidding.

[ She glances at him, looking him up and down BUT NOT IN A CREEPY WAY ... she's just trying to see if he's still got any kind of injury ]

I heard you can regenerate. Are you doing alright?

[birdsbirdsbirds]

[he looks pretty good. pale, but he always looks pale. he pats the spot over his heart, where there was a horrible gaping wound a while ago.]

Yes, thank you. My new heart is adapting very well, I'm quite proud of it.

[ino]

Your new one? So what, he just kept the old one?

[birdsbirdsbirds]

No, it just kinda... [he makes a vague gesture with his hand that could really mean anything.]

[ino]

[ what the hell does that mean]

... He just -- [ imitates hand gesture ]?

[birdsbirdsbirds]

...No, he didn't do anything. It just kind of dissolved on it's own. The regeneration is very thorough about not leaving things behind.

[he makes that gesture again. you know, like that. like just dissolving on its own.]

[ino]

.. Oh.

[ thoughtfully: ]

I guess that's handy.

[birdsbirdsbirds]

Yeah...

[HEY how about we talk about something else:]

Did you do anything different with your hair today? I was meaning to ask, but it seemed a bad time until just now.

[ino]

[ Smooth subject-change-no-jutsu there, Robin. But she'll let it slide with a smirk ]

Yeah, I actually had a chance to wash it properly, now that we stopped at a place with actual beauty products.

[birdsbirdsbirds]

Oh, it looks really nice. [SMILING. good mood, activate.]

[ino]

[ Lifts an eyebrow. Is this what he meant by the awkward small talk? She'll respond with an air of confidence -- she KNOWS she looks good, Robin, not that she doesn't appreciate the reminder ... ]

Of course. I take good care of it.

[ She holds up the message she's got in her hand from the client. Something about transporting some kind of special, unnamed and therefore probably illegal cargo. ]

Did you come over to compliment my hair, or are you looking for something to do?

[birdsbirdsbirds]

It was mostly to compliment your hair, actually.

[but his eyes are drawn to the message, since he was loitering around for something like that earlier.]

But, something like that could be fun. What kind of job did you snag?

[ino]

[ she turns to let him view the message ]

Cargo. Not as exciting as a person, but judging by the tone of the message, I'm sure it'll be at least somewhat difficult to sneak it out.

[birdsbirdsbirds]

Huh. [he quickly scans whatever it says, and hands it back to her.] Maybe it's big. Or alive. Are you looking for a hand?

[ino]

[ ... Very clearly sizes him up ... ]

Depends if you can keep a secret.

[ she isn't planning to use much if any of her powers if she can help it, but she would prefer even the basics remain unknown to most of the fleet aside from her healing ]

[birdsbirdsbirds]

[oh he presses his hand to his chest as if to say OH HONEY TRUST ME.]

Starling, I keep more secrets than a king's private chambers.

[ino]

[ Starling. How cute. But she laughs, and motions for him to follow ]

Alright, alright, come on then.

[birdsbirdsbirds]

[he giggles to himself and follows... going on an adventure with Ino! yay!]
