endgames: (No seriously)

012 -- [Voice || Action]

Show of hands if someone tried to prank you yesterday.

[Annoyed as he sounds, he's mostly gotten over it. Simply put, Shikamaru is just too lazy to hold a grudge when it comes to most things. He's still curious, however.

...but no longer orange, thankfully.]


------

[Later on, just before evening, Shikamaru can be found on his way back from the Item's Shop to CH 1, a certain book in tow. And for a book that stands at half his height and is nearly two feet thick when closed, we do mean tow. He'll be taking frequent breaks along his way back, dropping the book with a loud thud before sitting beside it on every bench he comes across.]


Damn thing weighs more than Temari's fan...

[Yeah, yeah, he's pretty weak for a ninja, he knows, but hey. The book does weigh about a hundred pounds or more. 8|

A passerby might catch him during one of those breaks, looking over it's contents in curiosity while the light is still good outside. But from there it's back to lugging it home.

The Nara Clan's medicine manual... the old man would kick my ass if I just left it lying around.]

Well that's not the right sort of attitude to have! My Big Big Sister says that if you're going to do a job you ought to do it properly, and anyway, it would be bad for this lovely big book if you left it here and it rained before you could take it home.

[Shifts the aforementioned freaking huge weapon more firmly on her shoulder.]

If you want some help, I can carry it for you.
stungunning: (Huh?)

[Pride commeth befall a fall; and let's face it you don't want to fall when you're carrying a book like that, deer boy.]

[Also wonderful Milly Misinterpretation is GO!]


That's not big? Goodness, what do you think is a big book then?

[Blink, blink.]

[Smiiiiiile.]


That would be a really, really big book.

[But holy moly, look at the size of this thing. It's a whopper.]

Is it an encyclopedia?

I didn't think it looked like light reading. Or light at all, really, eh heh!

[She chuckles to herself and then looks at the book again.]

Are you sure you don't want any help carrying it?
stungunning: (now don't you worry your head; it's ok)

Don't mention it! I'm happy to help people out if I can, it keeps me out of trouble.

[Beams right back at him.]

I'm Milly, Milly Thompson.
