023 -- [Accidental Post]
[Earlier, when looking through his father’s book for the first time in several months, Shikamaru found some pictures he’d never seen before being used as bookmarks. It was… nostalgic, to say the least.
He finds another bookmark to replace them; puts the photos in a drawer to look at later. Because haha, he knows how this works, right? He leaves them out, and somehow his journal accidentally records it. Yeah. Hell no. He’s smarter than that and doesn’t leave his journal anywhere near them. On top of that, he takes it with him when he leaves to assist with a chakra training lesson. Crisis averted!
Guess what he sees when he opens up his journal two hours later.
Where’s the nearest wall. He needs to beat his head softly against it while he attempts to figure out how this happened. Feel free to action it up when he’s back at CH1 too, if you like.]

It's what makes you such a great leader.

[It's said automatic, before he can think twice about it. Jeez. How did this conversation get turned back this way?
May as well continue. No sense in giving him a chance to argue his point.]
I will be someday, but I'm not there yet.

[There's a faint smile on his lips.]
Someday.

Brushing it off would be the simplest thing to do. But he's outgrown his past self's need to do that. If he wants to be someone as great as Asuma one day, he can accept that and move on. He nods.]

We will speak again.

[He's smirking too much for that to be ill-taken.]
Later.
