[Open] Finally, good news.

When she'd gotten home the other night it had been to the horrible news that her eldest Itachi had had a complete meltdown and she hadn't been there to help. Unfortunately, she simply didn't have the ability to be home all at once, but it did put it in her mind that her and Kushina needed to have a talk if the woman intended to go around breaking her babies.

She was hardly the only one she needed to speak to though, and she heaved an agitated sigh, trying to sort out what to do.

She heaved a deep sigh. "No."

"That's what I thought," He nodded, smiling and leaning in to kiss her cheek, his hand moving to hold hers. Somehow, he just felt like being much more affectionate to Mikoto as of late, and their conversation upon meeting again helped...

"Take some time and talk to her when you feel you can. There's no rush, Mikoto."

She snorted some and reached up, catching him by the nape of the neck and reeling him in for a proper kiss over her shoulder. "I know that."

He kissed her properly, a little surprised by the move but certainly not protesting against it. He held it for a good long moment before finally moving to sit beside her, "I'm somewhat less than impressed with Kushina-San myself, but I want to reserve judgement until I've heard everything. It's not too far of a stretch to think that she was provoked, even if that level of action was unwarranted."

A beat, and he added, "I can see about talking to Itachi as well. That he feels so poorly about himself... It shouldn't have to be like that for him."
