Who: Ino and you!
Broadcast: Yes
Action: Three Twins only
When: Tonight!

[ action only -- for anyone who might be keeping an eye on her while she's been unconscious ]

[ It's been a few days, and while she's been asleep, a few strange changes have occurred ... her face and hair a little longer, her body a little more filled out -- so on and so forth. A couple of days is no time at all when you're busy remembering a whole year or two worth of memories!

But tonight is when she suddenly groans and moves to sit up a little, face in her hands for a moment as she rubs her eyes. ... And then she's looking around. ]

... Wait. What?

[ broadcast; ]

[ A somewhat familiar -- but a little older looking -- blonde appears on the network. She takes a moment to fix her hair before she speaks. ]

Well ... hi again, everyone. I guess I'm back now? Super weird, but what else is new, right? -- Did I miss anything exciting?

Then you should get some rest. Some actual rest.

[ he reaches up to brush her hair from her face, just because he can - and just because it's so good to see her awake again - before he lets his hand fall away. ]

And you can tell me about everything that happened over breakfast. Alright?

I just got up, though ...

[ She laughs, though, because it's so contradictory. ]

I mean, maybe in a little bit. I don't think I could sleep just yet with everything going on. [ She makes a gesture towards her head. ] Too much to think about!

[ he nods as if he understands, even though the concept is honestly a little beyond his grasp. he can't actually imagine what it would feel like for this to happen. ]

Sure. Tell me about it, then?

Um, well ...

[ Where to begin? Maybe why she's been so busy ... ]

Sakura and I have been working a ton lately. We're trying to get all of the paperwork and training taken care of to get the place open.

[ Right, he wouldn't know what place she's talking about. Working backwards, here ... ]

The hospital. I mean, the hospital we're trying to open ... It's going to be a mental hospital, for kids.

[ well, okay: that makes it hard for tadashi to feel literally anything but a surge of admiration and pride, and the smile he gives her is a pretty clear indicator of that. ]

That's incredible.

[ she's incredible, is what he seems to mean. ]

You're gonna help a lot of people.

[ She can't help but preen a little under that smile. ]

There were a lot of younger kids that got involved in the war ... civilians who got caught in the destruction, or they lost their parents or their friends ... I think it'll help if they have someone to talk to.

[ Maybe they can prevent an army of tiny Sasukes. ]

Anyways, turns out there's a lot more to it than just laying claim to a building and putting a couple couches in it. Oh -- and Naruto and Hinata are gonna get married soon. It took the world nearly ending completely for them to get together, but I guess he's just that dense.

Naruto? Really?

[ not that tadashi had known him for long, but... ]

That's, uh - well, good for him, I think. [ he isn't going to let that first part go, though. ] The world nearly ended?

Oh, yeah. That was, uh ...

[ Jeez. How to even explain this one. ]

Basically, we found out there was a shinobi living on the moon? He built this device that was making the moon move towards the Earth, with the goal of, you know, having it eventually hit it and destroy everything.

There were shinobi living on the moon.

[ he'll repeat that in the hopes that it'll make it more palatable eventually. and then... ]

How long was he there? Why would he even - what's the point of destroying everything?

[ it's not that he disbelieves. he just doesn't understand. ]

I guess he was there for a really long time? We don't know for sure, though.

From what I heard, it sounded like he kidnapped Hinata-chan to marry her. Then they were gonna be put to sleep on the moon until the Earth was totally wiped out, and he was gonna like ... you know, repopulate it with her or something.

[ She grimaces. ]

Super creepy.

[ what the fuck ]

But who- was gonna wake them up?

I think they would just automatically wake up, or something ... ?

I don't know. He was crazy. And I didn't see him, anyways, this is just what I heard from Sakura. I was down on Earth trying to keep everyone from losing their minds.

You know.

[ he's just going to kind of settle back into bed next to her here. ]

Maybe you bringing over some surprise boyfriend from another world won't raise that many eyebrows.

[ She grins, sliding a hand to his lower back. ]

Honestly, with all the inter-village travel going on right now, I doubt anyone will even ask. Shikamaru and Chouji both have girlfriends from other villages now.

[ wow he has missed her, and he'll shut his eyes to sort of just focus on the feeling of her hand, thanks. ]

I could be your girlfriend from another village.

[ She laughs, wiping an eye. And then, like she's read his mind: ]

I missed you.

[ he's amused here, not scornful. ]

You didn't remember me.

It still feels like forever since I saw you last.

[ Since ... it kinda has been. ]

[ he peeks one eye open at her, lifting his eyebrow when he does. ]

You still think the geek thing is cute, right?

I think you're cute.

[ She smiles, drumming her fingers against his back. ]

Just because I'm a war hero, and a clan leader, and a mental health clinician doesn't mean I'm too cool to hang out with you.

[ Is she bragging? Yes. She's totally bragging. ]

[ ino, seriously, wtf is he going to do when you meet a cool ninja guy who can actually keep up with you?? ]

Charitable, too.

[ oh, well. he'll just try to draw her in for a little kiss. ]

[ Considering that never really happens and her canon husband is a total weirdo ...

... Anyways, she'll kiss him back. ]

I try. I've got a charitable amount of words to have with Sasuke later, too. If he's still here.

[ his eyebrows go up as if to say 'oh'? ]

Oof. What are the chances of me getting to be there for that?

One hundred percent? You know I have no qualms with publicly humiliating him.

Glad to see you haven't changed that much.

[ he's laughing still. ]
