She can't help but smile a little at his dry reply. It is nice to see that nothing has changed her cousin. Yes, the other version of him is able to still give small smiles and make some of dry, amused comments, but she worried that this particular version of Neji might be...bitter towards her.

She feels a little lighter, to be honest. "I shall endeavor to keep myself out of situations like that then, if only to ease your mind."

They both know what she really means. If Naruto is in trouble, she will forget about herself again and keep the man she loves safe above her own life. Although, here in Michi no Sato, she has more assistance in keeping Naruto-kun safe and they are not in the midst of a war either.
