[Open] Oh really now?

[sparkplug_chan]

Practicing with the new weather... issue was an interesting thing to try to do. Especially given the water formations seemed especially prevalent on the outdoor training fields.

She didn't, however, hesitate to work with her elements, since if nothing else, she'd long since learned how to deal with Naruto, and it would be fun to finally be able to spring an appropriate reaction on him when he did a dousing jutsu to try to shortcut in their spars.

Unfortunately, it also meant that when she decided to take a break she was sopping wet, her clothes were half falling off, and she'd had to chase her sword across the field when one of the spouts had landed on her.

This time when she kicked him it probably hurt a bit, because she looked a tad miffed. "Don't bring Hinata into it."

She let it go though, focusing on the plants. "They haven't fruited yet, not here anyway."

[konohasuperstar]

It did hurt, by how he coiled briefly on himself and gritted his teeth. "ugh.. n-no? Ah, right right. Fine." note to self: no mentioning Hinata, girl self gets violent.

"Keep an eye on those once they start, then." that mini-him would get a few of those if he ever spotted them...

[sparkplug_chan]

She relaxed when the topic of Hinata was dropped, smile returning. "I will. Those are mine after all, and sharing would require my permission."

[konohasuperstar]

He got back to his feet, although would certainly sport a light bruise where she kicked. "Yea... not like he,s not hogging those that're within sight in the kitchen.." he massaged the hurt area. "If I kick like that.. hm, I should do it more often.."

[sparkplug_chan]

She rolled her eyes. "I'm also a girl, I have a higher level of lower body control than you."

[konohasuperstar]

"You mean middle, don't you~" he snickered.

[sparkplug_chan]

There was a beat of pause, and she narrowed her eyes. "Well I do now."

[konohasuperstar]

He laughed again. "I know everything~ ahaha, sorry sorry, that one was too tempting~"

[sparkplug_chan]

She gave a single nod, then reached out and punched him in the arm. Hard.

Satisfied, she dropped her hand and looked at him like she hadn't done anything at all "Understandable."

[konohasuperstar]

"Ghh!" First it was a kick to the side, now it was a punch!? "H-hey that doesn't mean it's happening right now! Not to me!" one day, he'd stop making it worse...

[sparkplug_chan]

She rolled her eyes and then crossed her arms. "You're really bad with people, aren't you?"

[konohasuperstar]

"Only on my days off~" he gave a wink. He was quite amazingly tame when he worked at the shop really. He only flirted here and there with Ino because she flirted right back with him and they both knew it would lead to nothing yet had a grand time.

[sparkplug_chan]

"Which means you use up all your people skills where you get paid. Not every Sasuke is as forgiving as I am." She shook her head at him.

[konohasuperstar]

"I'll cross that bridge when I get to it." he shrugged. "Am I that much of a crime being myself?"

[sparkplug_chan]

"You were doing fine before you brought in the dirty humor."

[konohasuperstar]

"Hmm, you gave me an opening. I take it when it's there." he gave a shrug. "Those who don't like it are free to roll their eyes or scoff. I should change how I am to suit everyone?" Go, Sasuke! Chidish, irrational stubbornness. This isn't what makes you famous, and normally Menma is there to whack your head, or Sakura keeps you on a leash wither nicknames.

[sparkplug_chan]

"No, but don't look so shocked when someone hits you for it either. I'm not going to apologize."

[konohasuperstar]

Sasuke did have his own faults, and kept unchecked, without anyone else to cover for his stupidity, it could be blinding."When did I look shocked?" more like, when did she hit him?
Really, what is there to expect of someone that uses his sharingan to get out of promises...?

[sparkplug_chan]

She just stared at him for a long moment and leaned in, almost touching noses with him. "Find someone already and calm down with them, mm?"

[konohasuperstar]

"Y-yeah, easy for you to say... even without those jokes, either people're taken or just don't give me the time of the day, or just...." he turned away, suddenly uncomfortable. "...I'm not what anyone expects of any Sasuke at all, and I'm not goin to change cause I can't and I don't want to anyway."

[sparkplug_chan]

The look she gave him was irritated, and she reached out to swat him again. "You don't have to change. How much of that is on you though? You're just as bad for expecting people to be like you remember."

[konohasuperstar]

"Huh? When did I say I wanted anyone to be like that?" he cocked his head, rubbing at that spot she had swatted. Vicious one, she was. "I don't think anyone being different from what I expect is bad, cause anyway I got the idea pretty fast that I'm the only one from my world." he gave a shrug. "... unless you meant me thinkin everyone'll accept my bad humor, but it isn't anything I take out that often" a pause. "Or at least...I don't think I do it that often."

[sparkplug_chan]

"First, I said expect not wanted. Secondly, you may not think that it's bad, but you still think it's wrong, don't you?"

[konohasuperstar]

He gave a sigh and lowered his eyes. She was right in everything. A deeper thinker than he was and might ever be. "Sorry." he murmured. "There's a lot I did wrong, then." there was a pause, and he went on. "Still, I need a place I can just be loose in. I like working, but when I,m out of it, I don't feel like restraining myself. maybe if I try and... lose that humor..."

[sparkplug_chan]

She took a deep breath, then moved to peer into his face from up close. "Stop. Trying. So. Hard."
