Rating: pg
Summary: Shikamaru discovers that he has two shadows now: his own, and Konohamaru. Little vignettes about the evolution of their friendship.
Disclaimer: It doesn't say "Masashi Kishimoto" on my underwear, that must mean that I don't own Naruto... merde.
A/N: I've been busy writing a paper on morality in ancient Rome... It was fun, but I really miss my boys! I hope these are good; I'm feeling a bit out of shape.

Scarf

"What's that?" Shikamaru asked, pointing at the strip of yellow cloth in Konohamaru's hand.
Konohamaru smiled widely, and stretched the strip of fabric out for Shikamaru to see clearly. "I got the baby a scarf," he said excitedly.
"No."
Konohamaru frowned. "No?" he asked, raising an eyebrow.
Shikamaru nodded slightly. "No," he said. He continued: "I don't want the baby to become some scarf-wearing weirdo."
Konohamaru shot him a glare. "Hey! At least it wouldn't wear its hair in a ponytail like a girl," he countered.
Shikamaru quirked an eyebrow. "But, the baby is a girl…" he said slowly.
"Oh, right," Konohamaru whispered.
"What are you boys blathering on about?" Ino asked, materialising behind them-- she tended to do that, Konohamaru thought. "She's not going to be like either of you!"

Ha, poor Konohamaru; he's so silly. Thank you for reading. I would be much obliged if you review.
