[It's another normal(ish) day. Temari hates normal. Normal is boring. Sometime during the early afternoon, she addresses the population at large.]

[Voice | Unfiltered]

What do you people do to keep yourselves occupied around here?

[As for her attempt to find fun, she's making her way toward a fairly empty spot not too far outside of town (despite the cold) -- after a detour to the grocery store. She was going for lunch but she found such a buy there that she couldn't resist.

If anyone asks about her carrying a large bag of nothing but pineapples, they're for target practice.

And, no, she did not take great pleasure in affixing the damn things to those poles she found. And she might even deny making dummies with pineapples for heads for any particular reason. It just seemed right.

And that scary smile when she proceeds to decimate one of those pineapple-headed dummies is just coincidence.

She should do this more often.]

[She sees you there, Shikamaru. Watch while she totally kills another pineapple.]

What? It's just fruit.

[Action]

[endgames]

[Just fruit. Uh huh.

...but he's happy to roll with it.]

Not anymore, it isn't.

[Action]

[dangerouswind.livejournal.com]

[She's so grinning at him right now.]

It's still fruit. It's just fruit in smaller pieces now.

[Action]

[endgames]

With some extra seasoning. [Snow and dirt. Yum.]

It's funny, though. You'd think something like a coconut would be more challenging for you.

[Not that he's implying anything.]

[Eyeroll. Thanks for that, Shikamaru.]

Hardly. [And a grin.] Want to break open a few pineapples yourself?

[Action]

[endgames]

Heh. Not really. [But he's grinning back.] Might as well take advantage of the opportunity though.

[Blink, blink. What? Is he...?]

To train? Or to make fruit salad?

[Action]

[endgames]

[Does he look like the kind of guy who'd make a fruit salad- you know, he's not even going to ask that.]

Since you seem to be fresh out of blueberries [/sarcasm], I think I'll just have to settle for target practice.

[Action]

[dangerouswind.livejournal.com]

The blueberries, I ate. [There's a pause, and then Temari suddenly has a kunai in hand. A flick her wrist and it's slicing through the air, aimed to pierce a pineapple dead-center.]

[Action]

[endgames]

Show off.

[A kunai of his own is flying through one of the other pineapples a moment later.]

[Action]

[dangerouswind.livejournal.com]

Look who's talking.

[She hefts her fan, then lets the end drop onto the ground while she leans on it.] I'm running out of pineapples.

[Action]

[endgames]

You could always find something that isn't pineapple-shaped.

[Action]

[dangerouswind.livejournal.com]

You don't like it?

[Action]

[endgames]

They work well enough. I just don't want you substituting them with my head when you run out.

[Action]

[dangerouswind.livejournal.com]

Learn to duck, then.

[Action]

[endgames]

Or. You could just not throw things at me. Maybe I'm be biased, but that seems like the less troublesome option.

[Action]

[dangerouswind.livejournal.com]

Less troublesome for you, perhaps. Just another target for me.

[Action]

[endgames]

You could make a target out of anything. Again, you'd think you could come up with something a little more interesting.
