It had been a boring couple of office hours, so Tyler had decided to bring in some games to give himself something to do besides drinking coffee and trolling on the Internet.

Today, he was playing pool against himself on a miniature pool table. He kept cheating when it was stripes' turn.

[OOC: Open office hours.]

So.

Ino had skipped his class on Monday and, well, that probably deserved some sort of explanation.

She rapped lightly on his doorframe. "Tyler-sensei, you--" her lips quirked, "too busy playin' pool to talk a second?"

Or a minute. Or--whatever.

"I don't know the rules very well," she said, smiling a bit as she took the cue he offered her. "But I suppose the rules are only important if everyone agrees on them, mm?"

A beat.

"Wanted to apologize for missin' class, mostly," Ino admitted.

"Bit of that," she confessed, leaning against his desk and watching. "Bit of a head injury, too. Nurses weren't impressed with me much for waitin' the whole weekend--as if I had much of a choice."

intraspective: (huh?)

Her lips twisted. "Got hit--knocked out--Friday evening. Didn't wake up as me 'til Monday. Totally not my fault but did the nurses care?"

Nooo. Geez.

She stared at him for a long moment before her shoulders slumped and she looked away. "I know that," Ino said, "I didn't argue with the nurses at all 'bout it."

Well. She'd barely argued. This was Ino.

"And I've been being good 'bout what kind of training I've been doing all week too. I'm not being dumb about it, promise."

intraspective: (sit down it's a talk)
From: [personal profile] intraspective
"You do not want to know about my weekend," she informed him seriously, "and I don't want to talk about it because talking about it sucks."

A beat.

"What did I miss and what do I have to do to make up for it?"

Ino stared at him, rather dismayed.

"Why is this week all about parenting? I don't want to think about that."

At all.

Mother was the worst word ever right now for her. Right up there with calamity.

"It would be deeply appreciated," Ino told him earnestly, even resisting the urge to give him a dirty look for his first comment. "Otherwise you're stepping right into weekend issues and you don't want that."

"For an assignment like that," she said, smiling at him. "I'll even buy you coffee for class on Monday."

It worked. She could do that no problem.

intraspective: (style!)

"I will," she promised. "I'm kinda fond of it, after all."

You know, all things considered.
