Preparing for the festival.

[youngesthokage]

He had a neat pile next to him on the counter, black and silver leather rabbit god mask at the very top. It was a bit morbid, the story of that, but it seemed like everything about this festival was morbid, so that was actually appropriate, in a way. He had the pale off white and frost blue kimono pulled most of the way up his shoulders, and he turned carefully one way, then the other as he examined himself in the mirror.

The reason? He was playing around with Oiroke, but he was doing it behind a closed door in the bathroom, and he sincerely hoped no one came to see what was taking him so long. He was just... curious. After all, he'd never spent much time in the shape and he had a memory of doing so.

Still, did it really change so little about his appearance?

She just smiled when he broke the kiss, content to let her forehead rest against his as she closed her eyes, just enjoying the closeness and affection. Sasuke might not say much aloud, but his actions usually did the rest. "You were great," she murmured, rubbing her hand up and down his arm. "I've never seen someone match me like that~"

"It comes with a lot of practice," He mumbled back, making sure to slide some of the callouses of his fingers gently along her skin before he leaned in to kiss her softly again.

She let out a breathy sound of appreciation at the feel of his calloused fingers against her skin, pressing in more firmly against him to return the kiss and hold it for a long moment. Her own fingers brushed over his cheek to hold him in against her, then down to his chest to start pushing back back, trying to pin him against the wall as she broke the kiss. "Itachi might come looking for us," she breathed, though she didn't try to move away just yet.

He let her go through with the pin, looking at her with her hands going to rest gently on her hips, "Do you want to find him?"

[bunsofsteel]

"Later." She stayed in close, humming softly as she brushed her lips over his jaw and glanced up at him. "I want to spend more time with you first."
