[Open] How irritating.

It was raining. Hard, irritating rain that at the very least wasn't cold... but also seemed to have no discernible source. Staring upwards in pure irritation, he narrowed his eyes, once again failing to see even a single cloud in the sky.

He didn't bother going back to change, as he'd already done so once, only to quickly find himself in a repeat deluge the second he left his home again. No, instead he stalked toward the village, utterly irritated with the bizarre weather of this place and the fact that it had decided that he desperately needed to experience the weather of a country he was happy to leave less than a year before, very largely in part because of this.

He was already not impressed, but he simply crossed his arms and leaned forward a bit. "Continue."

How can you not be impressed! Really.. He took a drink of water and went on. "They actually sealed the kyuubi inside Menma, who's my best buddy. Apparently he's the Naruto everywhere else. He's actually a great guy, and uh... he wouldn't hate you considering we're all from the same village, Orochi-sannin~" he promised.

"You're actually a great guy too, you know? Our Hokage and you can do some scary nifty medical stuff. You're most often away doing your own things god-knows-where, but you're out when it counts!"

His eyebrows arched, just a bit, at this information. "I'm still in the village in your version of things?"

"Huh-huh! I mean... that's kinda news to you, but it's normal to me." a grin. "Good news?"

"I never had any plans to leave the village without being forced out, so this is perfectly acceptable to me as an alternative variation of the situation."

"Same here~ I wouldn't leave Konoha and deprive our village of the last and greatest Uchiha on its soil~" yes, he certainly had an ego.

He stared at him for a long moment at that. "Do tell me what causes that particular change, hmm?"

"Change?" a blink. "Oh, because I'm not a rampaging ball of anger and whatnot? Well.." he briefly recounted how his brother gave him the task of rebuilding the clan after he decimated it with his own hand.

"Essentially, it's up to me to make the Uchiha into the greatest of clans! Oh I'll sure bring back the pride from the founding days~" yes, this made him current clan head in his world. Be afraid.

That got him to cant his head to the side, and Orochimaru finally hummed a soft noise of interest. "I see."

"Uh-huh! That's what makes me the greatest and most awesome of those with my name~ Oh, and I trump them all in fashion too." he purred "But yep, that here's my plan! ...whenever I go back to my world, that is."

"You seem to be quite devoted to your ideal then." He stared him down for a long moment, then moved to brush past him, curious if the rain would affect anyone else. "I'm going to the market if you wish to continue speaking."

"I do have an important mission~" reviving his clan would be done, indeed.

Someone was willing to hear him out and interested? Of course he would follow! "Sure, I'll--" whoa wait what was this rain doing coming closer!? Eyes widened, and he thought of attempting a minor earth jutsu, but--- no.

"...I'll need to change out of this.." good reason to head to the markets. "How did THAT even happen?" a drenched Sasuke... was a funny-looking Sasuke, because for about three seconds, his soaked hair would stay down. Never more than that. "Can't have too many changes of clothes, so I might just have business there too, and we can talk. And be underwater buddies.."

There was something rather satisfying about not being the only drenched person walking down the street, and he kept going, taking his rain bubble with him. "Now you ere saying?"

"Something about being the greatest and most awesome... even if i look like a drowned rat right now." he spluttered.

"Aside from that, I was pointing out we were both equally devoted to Konoha where I am from." he kept wring his hair uselessly now and then.

"You'll dry later I'm sure." He rolled a shoulder in a careless shrug and looked over at him. "Konoha... is my home, this I am willing to admit."

He felt a sudden chill as the rain moved back away and he was left with-- okay that breeze was BAD because he felt he was freezing.

...and so he quickly stepped to walk side-by-side with Orochimaru. "...think being soaked till we're inside is better... wind and water don't mix." he still had goosebumps on his arms. "B-but yea, it's home..."

A small smirk touched his lips as he gave a soft laugh at the reaction. "You prefer the rain do you?"

"After freezing, I sure do." a pause. "...and at least this rain isn't cold, just..uh.. wet."

"...Imagine spending over a year in this every day."

"I think by then you'd grow gills and be able to breathe underwater, no?" a pause. "...wait have you had that rain following you for that long?"

"No, but there is a country named Rain which I spent over a year in... and this was the weather."

"I wonder why they named it like that. It leaves absolutely no surprise, does it?" he wrung out his hair even if he was getting soaked again immediately. "So uh... brings back memories?"

The look you're getting for that Sasuke. It is a very much not impressed at all look.

"Oh, hey! That's the same look I gave the chibi-me when he tried to convince me he didn't eat three whole tomatoes within a single morning all by himself!"

His tone couldn't have been drier. "Then I have no doubt you understand what it means."
