Shikamaru shot Chouji a glance to stop talking about it. She was soon going to burst out with anger and it was pretty obvious from her movements and expressions. Hopefully changing the subject would cool her off the subject of her diet. It was pointless to tell her otherwise about her diet or she would tear your head off. What a pain... It's hard to hold a conversation with someone who would get so upset in a matter of seconds. And the mood swings didn't help at all, usually things don't confuse Shika but this was just immpossible to figure out.
Shikamaru lent back into his set and looked at Ino. He nodded his head down and crossed his arms on the table. 'Should I really talk about that mission...' He thought to himself as he took a deep breath. It was his second major mission where he felt helpless and was more of a burden. Even his plans would back fire on him and cause his them to have to go through more trouble. Gai especially. Lee losing control of his body from that bastard Kusanagi was enough ,but forcing him to fight his own student was just torture.
Shikamaru looked up from his thought with a plain face and simply said three words. "Very.. Troublesome..Missions." He dropped his head again with a slight look of secrecy. " I ended up in the hospital for a few days just because of some guy putting a jutsu on me. It caused my body to completely shut down." Shikamaru looked back up and leant on his hand, looking at Chouji. "How bout you?"

Chouji lowered his head like a scorned puppy and nodded twice in a slow manner. "Of course Ino-chan I'm sorry. I was only trying to help" He muttered his plees and apologies more to his empty plate than to his teamate.
Swiftly he lifted his head as he heard Ino's question. Biting his lip he thought of how to explain his recent mission. Obviously it was nothing to brag over, family missions for him never were intresting like Shikamaru's. Shikamaru was given tougher missions where Chouji was left to try and get stronger without dying from a little circular pill.
His squinty eyes shifted to Shikamaru as he listened to the chopped up explanation. Raising a small eyebrow in intrest and a small smile twitched onto his pudgy face once more. "No mission is troublesome for you. Out of us all you always get the important missions Shikamaru" He nodded viciously and swivled around to look at Ino for a nod of confirmation. "Why must you say everythings bothersome? I bet its not. Unless of course it is." Chouji babbled as he moved one hand from side to side as he spoke.
Putting his hand back down on the table Chouji shook his head. "Me. I only went on a Akimichi clan mission. I told you that Ino-chan. But, all we did was get stronger ingrediants and looked for a better cure to the effects of the red pill. So that we don't have to lean to much on the Nara's for help" A smile grew as he explained. "Then I'll be sure to match you guys in strength once I get that pill's effects to a minimum" He gleefully clapped his hands. "Then we will be an unbeatable trio right? Right?" He turned his head to look at both of his teamates and friends with a lit up expression plastered to his pudgy face and a childlike determination and glee glittered in his eye. "Team InoShikaChou...yeah. On the way to history. I bet we could be stronger than our dads"

Ino rested her chin in her hand, twirling her chopsticks absent-mindedly, watching Shikamaru as she waited for an answer. Her instincts worried her. He was hesitating...he never really did that. She tried to read his eyes, and frowned when he blanked them before she could finish. She didn't like that. He was hiding something...
But she knew how that felt, so for once, she decided not to push it. Instead, she poked him sharply with her chopsticks. "You were in the hospital?! How come nobody told me?" She frowned deeply. Now she felt bad...she hadn't even known about her teammate being in the hospital...dammit, why couldn't she get this right?
Nodding to Chouji, she rolled her eyes. "Ne, Shika-kun, Chou-kun is right. You get the best missions, Chuunin-san. And even when you go on the same missions as us, you get paid more. Don't look a gift horse in the mouth."
Looking over to Chouji, she munched quietly on her rice without much thought. She really wasn't supposed to eat more...but they had training next, and so she figured she could go over just this once. She'd have to work twice as hard at practice though, to burn the calories. "Ne, still, something like that is important!" She chirped, smiling. "But you don't really need the pills, you know. You're strong enough as is."
Secretly, she was worried. As a child, she used to read the diaries of former Yamanaka. Akimichi's usually died young, and the more pills they used, the younger they went. Their weight and the effects of the pills were simply too much for their hearts...she shook her head to clear it of that thought. Chou-kun would be different. She wouldn't let him die. And that was that.
"Oh please, our fathers will pale in comparison to us," Ino smiled, setting down her chopsticks and lacing her fingers together. "We'll be the best damn InoShikaChou in the history of the village~!"

Shikamaru looked at them both and began to actually think about it. They were right. He would always get the more troublesome missions. The near impossible ones at that... Man they were such a pain..
He felt the chopsticks poke him and he looked at her while leaning back. "It's ok. I didn't want to worry you two so I asked for them not to go inform anyone about it." Shikamaru nodded to what he just said. He hated to see people worried for him. He has been in those shoes to many times and he didn't want anyone else to go through the same pain he went through. Waiting to see if Neji, Kiba, Naruto, and even his best friend Chouji were alright, was just too painful. No one deserved to go through something like that.
Shikamaru looked at both of them, when he heard about "that" pill. "Chouji, to me your strong enough without the pill. But if you really want to learn how to use the pill and have it's effects to a minimum. I'll look up some books to help you with that." Shikamaru smirked at Chouji and leant onto his own hand.
Hearing the formation name once again out a smile on his face. "InoShikaChou. I agree. Were the best InoShikaChou in generations to come."

[[I'll post out of turn. Because I feel like it. Oooooooohsnap.]] Ino bit her lip, watching Shikamaru with mixed emotions. She would have done the same, but...it was her job to worry over them...it didn't feel right, with him trying to keep her from fussing...it made her feel like she was a bad teammate, for somehow not caring enough or just not knowing that he was hurt...
She did not bother him about it though. She had to trust in him that he would know when he needed her to worry, and when not to. He was Chuunin for a reason...and infinitely more clever than her. She would let him make his decisions, and she would support him. She didn't think he really realized how much he needed that unquestioning, absolute loyalty. But she had felt the loneliness of losing such a friend (Sakura...), and she couldn't let him go through that.
Still, she smiled at Shikamaru's offer, envying the two. She was more of the outsider in the trio. They understood each other perfectly, and she...bah. Boys made no sense. The moment you thought they were just idiots with no real depth, they did something to prove you wrong, and then went back to idiocy. Hmph. But she wasn't nearly spiteful enough to force her way into such an arrangement. It would be overstuffing a vase, and it would simply kill them all off. Their dynamic was fine.
Her eyes flickered to a clock on the wall, and she blinked. "Ahh...we should hurry up. Sensei will want us at the training grounds soon..."

"Barbecue," Karin sighed as she drifted into the building. The smell was wonderful, heavenly. It made her stomach growl louder, sounding more like an animal than a girl's stomach.
After a few minutes, she had a plate full of what she saw as the best, most delicious food in the world. She took a seat, said "itadakimasu", and started eating. She moaned with joy as she placed some pork in her mouth. She continued eating, thinking about how wonderful this food was. Once she was done, she placed the amount of money needed to pay off the succulent lunch she just had. With that she left.
