Helloooo, Paradisa, and welcome to the first -- Issue? Edition? -- whatever, of ... what are we calling this?

I'm not calling it anything. "Things Ino Said and Sakura wrote about"?

That's the dumbest name I've ever heard of. ... But alright, it'll work until we think of a better one. Anyways, in honor of the summer, which will end pretty soon, we'

[You know what ladies? James's respect for you both went down a little bit with this. Well, more his respect for Ino, at least Sakura was trying to be helpful. But still.

Bathing suits?]

Ladies, may I, inquire as to why this is such an issue? [Says the man who hasn't updated his sense of style since the early 1900's.]

[jamesholmes]

[Yeah its not really all that hard. But that's a good thing because it means he doesn't stick out to her as a fashion issue! But its not that hard to imagine when your choice is either slacks or this thing.]

I have too worn a bathing suit before. [Just nothing modern.]

[yamanaka]

Really. [her tone says she totally doesn't believe him asldkjasd] Like trunks, or what?

[jamesholmes]

Yes really. [Total flat tone of voice here, he's telling the truth.] You could call it trunks I suppose...with a matching shirt.

[yamanaka]

What's the shirt for? [HONEST QUESTION, she wants to know if it's a fashion statement or a modesty thing or what]

[jamesholmes]

[Ahhh alkjsf make the mun do homework xD] In the time period that I last wore a bathing suit, it was for modesty. Men and women alike weren't supposed to show a lot of skin.

[yamanaka]

[lsfkjsdlf ♥] Well, there aren't any kind of rules like that here, if you haven't noticed just by walking around. [considering there are a lot of people wearing pretty skimpy clothes, her included half the time sdkfjsd]

[jamesholmes]

Set rules? No there are not. But it was how I was raised, and it is, unfortunate others, don't leave, things to the imagination, in other parts of their clothing then besides swim wear. [He really doesn't like modern, skimpy clothing if she hasn't noticed yet unless it's on Helen but don't tell her that.]

[yamanaka]

Well, it all comes down to what people are comfortable in, I guess. I could never wear a big, long dress that covers everything all the time, I'd never be able to fight or anything.

[jamesholmes]

Precisely, comfort is all there is to it. [This is the biggest concession he will ever make.] A big long dress is not needed however to look, appropriate by the rules I know, just don't show excess skin. [If you want to know what he would never be caught dead in you'll have to ask.]

Are you a, shinobi like Ms. Haruno? [Yes topic change to avoid sharing his very silly clothing likes.]

[yamanaka]

Well, we had some weird Victorian thing around Christmas. It's more experience talking than what you were saying.

Yeah, why?

[jamesholmes]

I have, had to learn to make, concessions, in my lifetime. While I would prefer a setting like what occurred around Christmas, I, realize it's not always possible.

Just curious is all. Is it a common profession in your world?

[yamanaka]

Well, you can wear whatever most of the time -- just don't be surprised when the castle transforms all of your stuff into tutus or something one day.

In my world? Not so much, I don't think. We live in a village that's mostly inhabited by shinobi though.

[jamesholmes]

[There is a pause here as he realizes Helen would laugh at him for that...] It is a risk, I have, lived with for a while. Or my clothes get eaten.

Ahh, alright then, was just curious is all, hearing that you and her share the same profession and all.

[haruno]

I think Ino's said anything that she'll ever need to say on the subject.

Which is not much.

Really.

[jamesholmes]

I would imagine so, this is, one of the most peculiar, sort of, announcements, I have ever seen.
