How often have you run into people in Luceti that you personally knew already, back where you're from?
[It's something he's been wondering about idly these past few days. In the last week, five people have shown up from his world. Most of the people here now he's met face-to-face - hell, went to school with - back home, sans Itachi. And he'd at least heard of him. He knows it's not unusual for people you know to show up here, but now he's beginning to wonder how frequently it happens.
It also makes him wonder who else might show up here someday. Not just from his world.]

Not sure if you remember me or not - this is Nara Shikamaru. If you have a moment, I'd like to talk to you.
[He and his friends have been lucky so far, in that everyone who's come from home is an ally. If someone from the Akatsuki were to show up, or someone like Uchiha Madara...
Not for the first time, a certain list comes to mind. He went to the trouble of updating it over the weekend, but there's still more to be done. At this point, he's not even sure if it's worth the risk keeping the list around, but until he makes a solid decision he's gotta keep at it.
Which also means looking more into these names, as well as some that aren't on it. Not all at once - he doesn't have the time. But he'll start with something odd he heard on the journals once, before he was kidnapped in July.]

I have a few questions for you, if you'll hear me out.
[After he's finished his to-do-list for the day, Shikamaru makes his way to the Seventh Heaven for a particular game of shogi. It's only later on that he catches on to what the day is - possibly by being suspiciously informed several times B| - not that the date means much to him.
As always, though, it's a good reminder of what the day after is. And that he should get on that. How troublesome.]
[Filtered to Masaomi Kida || 100% Unhackable]
You around?
[Unless dragged off somewhere, Shikamaru's bound to be hanging around town today, looking at items like clothes and jewelry and other things he would never get for himself because why would he ever need something so stupid. 8|
Eventually, he'll wind up at Flonne's Flower Shop of Love in particular. Girls like flowers; Ino likes flowers. At least he can't go wrong there, right?]

[Because giving suggestions when he doesn't need them will be impolite. :(]

action;
Ah, of course, Shikamaru-kun.... [A slight pause.] May I know the reason why?
action;
It'd suck if I screwed it up, though.
action;
I- I will not go anywhere. Please feel free to choose the flower you like best.
action;
How about this? It looks... pretty, I guess.
[It's a gladioli, thought it may not be the best choice...]

...I'm not even going to ask. [Sigh.]
action;
This one? It smells okay.
[It's a double-flowered stock.]
action;
Shikamaru-kun, I think you might have just found the perfect flower.
[And she's pleased by this. Your luck might be turning for the better now, lazy genius.]
action;
[Oh, and finally someone who works at the shop seems to be here now
because I said so.]I'll just have them wrap it up for me so it looks nice, and I'll be good to go.
action;
That sounds good. I'm certain Ino-san will like these flowers. More importantly, b- because you picked them.
action;
action;
I- I'm glad I can help, then.
action;
So I'll see you around?
