Masaomi is the kind of person who thinks clothes make the man.

[Figuratively or literally. Could be both, but he won't explain. Ikki's smart, and can derive a meaning from that.]

I think he's starting to see beyond that lately, but he still forgets sometimes. Should you feel like it, it can't hurt to remind him of that.

[That he's cool, that is. Shikamaru thinks he could hear it more.]
