Wellspring Arms & Meditation Centre, Wednesday

She was... there. Not at the desk though, but rather spent some time flitting around and taking care of her plants before retreating to the meditation room.

Settling down on the floor Ino closed her eyes and tried to clear her mind. It wasn't working so well though, and after a solid forty minutes of trying, and failing, to find her center, she wandered back out to the desk and flopped in Cable-san's chair.

What did that mean? She'd always been able to find her center before.

Ino bit her lip, and worried about that.

Wellspring Arms is Open.

And in what should be no surprise, Worf showed up. "Is the meditation room available?" He asked in his usual gruff manner.

Worf bristled slightly. "Would you prefer that I march into the room and interrupt someone in the middle of their meditation?" he snapped back.

Worf glared at Ino. "I was merely being... polite," he said with some restraint. "From now on I'll ignore your presence and simply go into the room. If I interrupt anything the fault will rest on your shoulders."

Lana stopped in to see Ino.

"How's it going?" Lana asked, looking at her with some concern.

"Sometimes thats all you can ask," Lana said. "And I'm okay."

He had his class, yes, but he also had a few minutes between when he could squeeze in the time to bring someone some lunch and a few cookies.

The broom helped.

"Ino?"

He looked around before trotting in.

"I believe there's a fee involved," he teased very gently as he wandered over to sit down next to her. He didn't really have much time, but he'd just skip his own lunch and ride like the wind.

"Something the matter with the plant?"

"Possibly. You'd have to discuss it with the Unnamed God. Generally, from what I've seen, He's open to negotiation or those huffy old men have wasted their time. Then again, Kumbricia or Lurline might give you a better price."

Blasphemy, of course, but he didn't rightly care. And he thought it might make her smile.

Then he turned to the plant.

"Are you misbehaving for her?" he said as if speaking to a child, "You really shouldn't. She's a very nice sort and beyond that, she only wants the best for you."

It was afternoon when he came down, this time; and rather than his usual check-up rituals, Cable's eyes flicked to Ino upon entry. "Ino."

A moment, and then he picked his words carefully. "You've been absent for days. You fell asleep on the job. You challenged one of your colleagues to a fight you knew you couldn't win."

So he hadn't actually told her about the colleague bit yet. Whatever. It was calmly, if sternly, that Cable finished-- "Mind telling me why?"

"You fought Temari," Cable provided, helpfully. It didn't change the stern much, even if he did manage a curious inflection. "'Stuff'?"

Worf's use of the mok'bara might have been a little more violent today as he "meditated".

No plants were harmed, though one plant did get close to be knocked over.
