Library; Monday [ 03/02 ].

[not-a-mused.livejournal.com]

Feeling pretty grumpy as he clung to his coffee and open the library, Cal was wondering if they could have their vacation back. Please? Pretty please? With a cherry on top.

Sighing, he resolved to try to stave off the back to school blues by doodling a little more in his notebook and trying to make something out of all his little scribbled spurts of inspiration.

"Uh huh," she said with a firm little nod. "Because otherwise I wouldn't have known about Mount Rushmore, so this is totally your fault."

Even though it was her fault for, well, everything else. Ino was ignoring that. Sort of. Mostly it was fun to come in and accuse him of stuff.

Cal snorted a little. "Are you going to research it, or something?"

Re: Third Period -- 03/02.

"I have to present on it in class this week," she informed him. "For marks."

Never mind that she'd totally agreed of her own volition for this.

"Oh, man," Cal smirked. "I've started a trend. Think you can make it as good as my awesome dictation on Smyrna?"

Re: Third Period -- 03/02.

[intraspective]

"Hopefully," she said optimistically. "Though you had the luck of, you know, knowing what you were talking about, so that's not really fair."

"Did you pick Mount Rushmore?" Cal asked. "Or did things end up being oddly fortuitous that Algren or Durden picked something we've talked about?"

Re: Third Period -- 03/02.

[intraspective]

"Well," she said slowly, "I had to ask permission to make a diorama of it 'cause it, I guess, made more sense to me than what we'd covered in class. So Algren-sensei said I could do a presentation on it, and the faces on it, and what they did."

Re: Third Period -- 03/02.

[not-a-mused.livejournal.com]

"Ah, but see?" Cal pointed out. "You picked it, so you can't complain. I didn't get to pick mine."

Re: Third Period -- 03/02.

[intraspective]

She stuck her tongue out at him. "Diorama's are totally different from presentations, geez. I asked 'bout a diorama."

Re: Third Period -- 03/02.

[not-a-mused.livejournal.com]

Cal just looked at Ino, sighed a little, and shook his head.

"Never mind. So you're doing your diarama on Rushmore. You going to actually take some rock and explode it into form?"

Because she should. All that talk of blowing things up.

Re: Third Period -- 03/02.

[intraspective]

Well, now she was totally thinking of it.

And kinda staring at him.

"...you do realize that the diorama's were for our mid-terms, right? Which was, you know, the week before spring break?"

Re: Third Period -- 03/02.

[not-a-mused.livejournal.com]

Cal took a moment to think back.

"Shut up," he said. "Anything that happened before spring break is officially wiped from my brain and that was a rough week for the mun."

Re: Third Period -- 03/02.

[intraspective]

"Anything that happened before spring break?" she teased and the mun completely understands!. "Should I remember to do any awful things, if they come up, right before it then next year so you won't remember after the break?"

Re: Third Period -- 03/02.

[not-a-mused.livejournal.com]

"Anything school related, Ino," Cal clarified. "AKA the unimportant stuff."

Re: Third Period -- 03/02.

[intraspective]

She pouted at him. "It was totally worth a shot," Ino insisted.

Re: Third Period -- 03/02.

[not-a-mused.livejournal.com]

"Why," Cal asked, "would you want to do awful things to me, anyway?"

Re: Third Period -- 03/02.

[intraspective]

"I wouldn't want to," she said, wrinkling her nose at him. "But stuff has a tendency to happen, so it was a just-in-case sort of thing."

Re: Third Period -- 03/02.

[not-a-mused.livejournal.com]

"'Should I remember to do any awful things' sure doesn't sound like 'stuff' having a 'tendency' to happen..."

Re: Third Period -- 03/02.

[intraspective]

Um.

Ino grinned innocently at him. "Small details?"

Re: Third Period -- 03/02.

[not-a-mused.livejournal.com]

Cal just rolled his eyes, shaking his head.

"Too small to deal with, right?"

Re: Third Period -- 03/02.

[intraspective]

"Maybe," she said, still looking innocent. "I mean, it's not like I get in trouble that often, right?"

Oh Ino.

Re: Third Period -- 03/02.

[not-a-mused.livejournal.com]

Cal was not even going to say anything to that. His look said it all.

Re: Third Period -- 03/02.

[intraspective]

"I've been good lately!" she said defensively.

Because good totally involved ripping into Liir's every fault.

Re: Third Period -- 03/02.

[not-a-mused.livejournal.com]

"Lately," Cal agreed with a nod. "I think we almost got into a whole thing recently, but I can't remember details. The cruise fried my brain to a delightful ignorance."

Re: Third Period -- 03/02.

[intraspective]

"With children," she said, making a face. "So we'll ignore it 'cause then I'd have to hit you and I don't want to hit you 'cause at least you didn't get married while drunk and get married to the wrong person."

...

"...I didn't either, just in case you were confused."
