JUST NEED TO THROW KURAMA IN HERE

[verysunny]

[Hinata promptly BLUSHES at SAID VERY LOVING HUG

Ino is so AFFECTIONATE KYA]

I-INO-SAN!

[Once she gets used to said hug, though still BLUSHING, she nods.]

Y-Yes, of course! I wouldn't want to miss a chance to be with everyone.

LMAO MASS BAR PANIC

[blondambition]

[SMOOSHSMOOSHSMOOSHLOVE.]

Good! Let me buy you a drink!

[Ino is already doing so, so you can't refuse her~]

KURAMA YOU CANT FIT IN HERE WHAT ARE YOU DOING

[verysunny]

[SCREEEEEEEEEEEE--oh]

Oh! No thank you! Sakura-san already--

[--What did Kiba steal this one too? IT WASN'T EVEN ALCOHOLIC.]

I guess...I already drank it.

AND HE IS LIKE FUCK ALL A Y'ALL LET ME IN OR IMMA WRECK THIS SHIT-- AGAIN B[

[blondambition]

[Ino gives Hinata a drink. It is very alcoholic. PEER PRESSURE, HINATA.]

Here! You're young and good looking, you need to enjoy life more~

[Seriously, Ino is enjoying life enough for all of them, tho...]

LMFAO AGAIN

[verysunny]

[HNNNN Ino did buy it for her. Takes a small sip and at least it's a little better than the beer. She's about to thank her for being so kind and buying her another drink (alcoholic but still) but GOOD LOOKING??]

Eh!? But I'm not-! I mean, I'm not nearly...!

You're much more pretty than I am! And you have so much confidence about it.

and everyone is drunk and is like OMG CAN WE PET A TAIL at least Ino would totally ask that

[blondambition]

It's all about confidence! You have the Hyuuga good looks already! Plus, you know--

[Ino points to her own chest.]

If you were a little more outgoing, you could get tons of guys!

KURAMA IS JUST LIKE 'UGH HUMANS' WHILE NARUTO SITS ON HIS HEAD

[verysunny]

[Hyuga good looks? Hinata quickly COVERS HER CHEST even though her jacket is like...

the most conservative jacket ever.]

But I-I don't want a ton of guys! [SHE ONLY WANTS ONE GUY.

Or girl because MY OTP.]

INO WANTS TO BRAID HIS TAILS

[blondambition]

A kunoichi should have lots of experiences, Hinata!

[Ino slaps her on the back.]

But lots of experience with one person can be good, too.

[INO KNOWS LOTS OF THINGS, GIRL. LOTS.]

I mean, it can even help you to advance in the world. Like I was telling Sakura! We never would have passed that Chuunin exam in Suna if I hadn't--

[She looks at Hinata, so good and pure.]

-- never mind, Drink more!

NARUTO WOULD LET HER AND LAUGH HIS ASS OFF

[verysunny]

[A small wince from the slap while she considers her words. She probably means...sexual experiences? Oh lawds. She drops her gaze to the ground, feeling her cheeks get burning hot.

Yes, maybe she did need to drink more.

ANOTHER SIP. At this rate it was going to take all night for her to get even the smallest buzz.]

You took the Chuunin exam with Sakura-san? [YES THIS IS A GOOD SUBJECT]

EVERYONE FEELS HAPPY WHEN THEIR HAIR IS NICE, KURAMA

[blondambition]

And Chouji. The three of us aren't like your team. We're not made for roughing it in the desert.

[Ino takes a looooong sip of her drink.]

Let's just say I made one of the Sand Siblings very happy and in exchange I got three days worth of supplies and a map of the desert.

/TSUNS EVERYWHERE

[verysunny]

[Hinata doesn't think she's necessarily made for roughing it in the desert but it did seem easier for them compared to most. It was Kiba's survival instinct and Shino's bugs and her Byakugan that made it manageable for Team 8.

And because Hinata isn't mentally retarded and understand implications without being blunt (like Naruto) she fumbles with her drink and nearly spills it all over herself.

MAYBE THIS ISN'T A GOOD SUBJECT]

I-I-Ino-san!!

/WHISPERS TO NARUTO'S BELLY/ LET ME BRAID YOUR TAAAAILS

[blondambition]

[Ino looks serious for half a split second.]

It was a dark time.

[BUT SHE DOES NOT NEED TO GO INTO DETAIL WHICH SIBLING IT WAS.]

When Shikamaru told me to play to my strengths I don't think that's what he had in mind.....

NARUTO JUST STARES DOWN AT INO LIKE WTF

[verysunny]

[That second is enough to make Hinata gulp audibly. Just what...had Ino done?]

No...I don't think so either. But, um, well--

[And because Hinata is the most optimistic ever and NEEDS TO CHANGE THE SUBJECT RIGHT NOW or she might implode.]

At least you passed the exam, right?

SHE JUST WANTS TO BE FRIIIIENDS

[blondambition]

Right! I'll drink to that!

[Ino is instantly cheered up. Alcohol and Hinata will do that do a person.]

You need to drink more!

[And then tell Ino lots of secrets :D]

WHISPER LOWER INOOOOO :3

[verysunny]

[There's a relieved sigh, a small sip, and then a nervous smile.]

I'm actually not a really a big drinker. I just like being with everyone.

[THERE IS NO JUICY GOSSIP ABOUT HINATA, INO REALLY]

KURAMA WOULD NOT APROOOOOVE OR WOULD HE

[blondambition]

So......

[Everyone has SOME sort of gossip. Ino drinks more, not like she needs it.]

You want to, like, at least make out with Naruto, right?

HE'S LIKE WUTEVA BOY NEEDS A LADY

[verysunny]

[Hinata's is still practically full. Poor girl. She has to deal with all these shenanigans SOBER.

AND she's just going to FREAK OUT SILENTLY. INWARDLY SCREAMING.

INO.]

Kiss?! N-Naruto-kun?! I...!!

[a long pause where she eventually calms down and stares at her lap, bangs covering her face

the smallest of nods]

Yes...

CAN KURAMA SEE ALL THE THINGS NARUTO DOES...

[blondambition]

[YES now they are getting somewhere!!!]

Anyone else?

[Of course everyone knew Hinata had a crush on Naruto since forever but the girl wasn't a nun!]

A teammate perhaps~?

IF MINATo COULD THEN PROB....ABLY OHGOD

[verysunny]

Teammate...?

[Kiba? Shino? She couldn't! They were...they were her closest friends. Still, after being with them for so long she found qualities in them she also admired so much in Naruto.

Still, sometimes it was hard to see beyond the veil that was Naruto.]

Um, I'm not sure what you mean.

LMAO AND WHAT IF HE TRIES TO MAKE "HELPFUL" COMMENTS

[blondambition]

You know~!

[She nudges Hinata.]

Everyone has a drunken make out or two with a teammate! It's one of the laws of being a shinobi!

THEY WOULD BE THE MOST UNHELPFUL OH MY GOD

[verysunny]

[MAKE OUTS AGAIN HNNNN]

N-No! I haven't!

[Ino you're killing her with these embarrassing subjects. She looks around for Kiba like he's overheard and is going to barge in a say that they have or he's wanted to or just KISS HERE THERE ON THE SPOT.

...It's not as a horrible thought as she had originally imagined but STILL NO.]

I've never even kissed anyone!

BRING HER A DEAD ANIMAL TO SHOW YOU CARE

[blondambition]

... ever???

[Even Sakura let someone make out with her (and maybe touch her boobies??)]

Ever ever ever???

CRYING

[verysunny]

[Shakes her head.]

Never.

[IS THIS UNACCEPTABLE? SHE'S JUST...saving herself for Naruto okay sldkjgslkgjs]

INO FINDS A DEAD RABBIT ON HER BED AND SCREAMS

[blondambition]

So how come... you've never just done it??

[When Ino wants something she just grabs it. Nothing gets in her way.]

You can kiss or not kiss whoever you want but... kissing is awesome!!

NARUTO IS LIKE 'AWW KURAMA LIKES YOU :'D'

[verysunny]

It is?

[She blinks because SHE DOESN'T KNOW. She doesn't know Ino is really drunk and just saying all the things. It's still girl talk and she doesn't get that often.]

I guess it's because...I've never had the chance to. And I couldn't just-! It's too embarrassing. Ino-san, you're the confident one, not me.

[But she's trying?]
