"I'm delighted, really," she said, with a toss of her head.

"You should be," Helen said bluntly, but with a smile. "I do not suffer fools gladly."

Re: General Mingling (Summer 2008 - 2.0)

[intraspective]

"And what," Ino had to ask. "Is your definition of a fool?"

Re: General Mingling (Summer 2008 - 2.0)

"Hmmm.... one who will not stand up for oneself, who thinks too highly of their own accomplishments, one who will not listen to reason..."

Helen shrugged. "There are many other things. Though often they boil down to people who annoy me."

Re: General Mingling (Summer 2008 - 2.0)

[intraspective]

That got a laugh. "Nobody gets away with walking over me."

Helen raised her eyebrows. "Then we shall probably get along well. Unless you think that means you could walk over me."

Re: General Mingling (Summer 2008 - 2.0)

[intraspective]

"Only if you're going to let me walk all over you," Ino said. "Because I've got no problems doing so if I can. But, somehow, I'm guessing no. Which, really, is more fun anyway."

"It most certainly is," Helen agreed. "It is so tiresome when people slink meekly away."

Re: General Mingling (Summer 2008 - 2.0)

[intraspective]

"It's boring," Ino rolled her eyes. "Seriously. People are way more interesting when they argue back."

Re: General Mingling (Summer 2008 - 2.0)

"I absolutely agree," Helen said. "Though I do not necessarily enjoy arguing... But if one must, then one wants someone who will stand up for themselves."

Re: General Mingling (Summer 2008 - 2.0)

[intraspective]

"Some people," Ino said idly. "Would say I like arguing too much."

Re: General Mingling (Summer 2008 - 2.0)

[elephantgadget.livejournal.com]

"Some people," Helen replied, "Say that I am quite a bitch at times."

Re: General Mingling (Summer 2008 - 2.0)

[intraspective]

That got a flash of a smile. "I can handle that."

Re: General Mingling (Summer 2008 - 2.0)

[elephantgadget.livejournal.com]

"Good to know," Helen said with a smile of her own.

Re: General Mingling (Summer 2008 - 2.0)

[intraspective]

"I'm in room 504 if you ever feel like arguing," she said. "Or whatever. I'm all by myself in it right now, so totally feel free to drop in anytime."

Re: General Mingling (Summer 2008 - 2.0)

[elephantgadget.livejournal.com]

"I'm in room 501. With a boy." Didn't take much effort to see how displeased Helen was with that turn of events.

Re: General Mingling (Summer 2008 - 2.0)

[intraspective]

Ino wrinkled her nose. "Ugh, maybe he'll be cute at least?"

Because that was totally the important part. Seriously.

Re: General Mingling (Summer 2008 - 2.0)

[elephantgadget.livejournal.com]

"Hmmm..." Helen said, not having considered that point. "Perhaps. But even if so he will have to be most careful not to encroach on my privacy."

Re: General Mingling (Summer 2008 - 2.0)

[intraspective]

"Maybe you'll get lucky enough and he'll be one of those guys that are way too embarrassed to do something like that?" Even though Ino totally found those kind of boys rather... boring.

Re: General Mingling (Summer 2008 - 2.0)

[elephantgadget.livejournal.com]

Helen rolled her eyes. "And then he would be worse than useless as a human being."

Re: General Mingling (Summer 2008 - 2.0)

[intraspective]

"So you'd rather he invade your privacy?" Ino asked. "I mean, sure, you can't have it both ways. You'd get either boring and nicely private, or not-boring but less privacy."

Re: General Mingling (Summer 2008 - 2.0)

[elephantgadget.livejournal.com]

Helen shrugged. "Why can't there be a happy medium? But a doormat..."

Re: General Mingling (Summer 2008 - 2.0)

[intraspective]

"This place," Ino noted. "Is bad at mediums."

Re: General Mingling (Summer 2008 - 2.0)

Helen huffed. "Another thing to dislike."
