[Voice / Action : Forest, 3/17] Arrival
Kai! [Sudden absence from the battlefield prompts Chouji's immediate attempt to dispel an illusion.]
Why won't the genjutsu break? It must be too strong. [Not to mention that genjutsu and fine chakra control are not his strongest skills. Pain should also work. It's hardly the preferred method for breaking illusions, but it's more reliable for anyone whose chakra control isn't near perfect. He reaches for a kunai, but none is available. Unarmed and unarmored in a genjutsu that could be used to do pretty much anything to him; somehow that isn't surprising. Chouji is starting to worry though. He crouches down, snatches a jagged rock, and slices open his left palm. Still nothing.
Unwilling to simply sit and wait, he pushes off lightly, leaping into the trees. Chouji conceals himself as well as he can among the branches, only now noticing the journal lying open on the ground below. Shivering from the cold, a twinge of pain between his shoulder blades makes Chouji twitch, wondering if the attack he's been braced for is finally coming. His eyes widen as he looks over his shoulder to see a pair of feathered wings. A little desperate now, Chouji makes one final attempt at breaking free. He stabs his thigh with the rock. Still trapped, he resigns himself to staying here until someone manages to free him, letting the stone fall back to the ground. Chouji keeps watch for any further signs of danger on the off chance the genjutsu's caster slips and gives something away.]
[Chouji can heard over the journal; he will pick it up as soon as he receives an answer. He can also be found in the forest or anywhere in the common areas of town after he eventually makes it there.]

"More like a nin dog or more like a summons?" Chouji asks for clarification, given her sudden appearance. He has no idea what a Pokemon is, of course.

Kiba's bond with Akamaru goes beyond partnership, after all.
"She can go into the ball, but she still lives with us. It's a pain. I told Masaomi 'no girls' when he moved in, and he broke that rule in less than a month."
He says this with a grin though, and a placating hand motion to Linda. He kids.
no subject
Shikamaru's attitude toward girls hasn't changed. "Is Linda less troublesome than most girls, then?" Chouji asks, grinning.
Finally, Chouji gets around to something that isn't a question. To Masaomi, he says, "The offer to cook extends to you, and to Linda if she's interested in prepared foods in addition to apples."
no subject
Well, Linda is speaking up then. She starts to articulate, with hand gestures and piis that of course she would like more things than apples if he can manage things which taste good and aren't obnoxiously fatty - oh! And no bitter things. She wouldn't mind something spicy, now she thinks of it...
"Appreciate it, my man."

"Now you're in for it. She'll be after you making things more than we will."
Shikamaru's side-eying Masaomi all the while, appreciatively.

Chouji glances between Shikamaru and Masaomi during Linda's long speech, noting the lack of confusion or curiosity on either of their faces. The eagerness comes through loud and clear, even if he can't understand a word she just said. "I don't mind. One of you will have to translate those requests, though."
A person would have to have a much harder heart than Chouji's to say no to Linda, especially when she appreciates the same thing he does. How could Chouji quash someone's enthusiasm for food? He's grinning at the electric mouse again.

He says this tongue in cheek, but he knows he isn't supposed to be saying that. Green's been talking about him being in control lately. Really, he's still juggling that with all the stuff he's built up upon in the last year.
no subject
"Anyways, I'm gonna get back to sorting through my shit. Chouji, you take a break."
That's a decent enough opening. The two of them can talk and get further acquainted, or Masaomi can seek him out if anything about this is bothering him.
no subject
Chouji relaxes in his seat, leaving decisions to the apartment's other residents.
