[TWO INCHES. Shikamaru hasn't noted it yet - his whole life, he and Chouji have always been about or near to the same height. Being fresh from the showers, the missing scars on his abdomen struck him harder, their absence bringing some Luceti memories to the surface.
By the time Chouji's found him, he's asked around and made better sense of things, but he's pretty irritable. That visibly fades to relief the second he sees who it is. A familiar face - a face from home - is a welcome sight right now.]
Chouji... [Sorry if that question needs repeating. He's uncharacteristically at a loss.] Hey.
