Kunai the 8th: [Video/Olivine Action]

[itsjustdust]

[It's him, though only the goggles were in view, his headband having been neatly adjusted so that it was just dark blue cloth and the metal plate was quite hidden in the folds of material. It was definitely long enough for it. He was also lounging back on a bed with a blank wall behind him, his charmander dozing on his chest]

So. How many of you have had a moment where you're sitting there going 'when the hell did I become the smart one?'

I mean, I've never been stupid, but things have been ridiculous lately.

[Steady... staring. You did WHAT now, Obito?]

... The announcement was less than ideal... [He'll admit it, almost reluctantly. It places them all in a trying situation. Her political power means nothing here. A Hokage without a village...]

Her announcement was reckless, dangerous, and put every Konoha shinobi with a Hitai-ate on alert. I figure I'll just... be ranking shinobi until she you know, figures out how not to do that.

I mean, I run my mouth, but REALLY?

[He knows, he knows. But is Obito in any position to declare himself the higher than her just like that? No hard feelings, but Tsunade is still his Hokage.]

... Regardless, rank means very little without structure on which to base it on. [A handful of genin and two chuunin. Yeah.]

Yep. I mean. I respect her in a battle position, but uh. Until she can get out of the enemy camp I kinda can't trust her anyway. Just precaution, you know?

[aburame]

Understood. [It was nothing but well-intentioned, but he realises it's still hard to place one's trust in that. Especially since Obito has never known her personally. Shino knows you can't force trust; it's something built up over time.] You will find an ally in both Naruto and myself. Why?

Because we are fellow leaf ninja.

[Obito probably knew that already, but Shino is going to impress it further. These things are important to him.]

I'm glad. I had issues with Tenten. I had to pretty much bribe her to actually stop being bitchy.

[Oh, you're making sensei face at him.]

See, she was pretty ticked at me for being a chunin and actually noticing she was a girl and it was all down hill from there.

Re: VIDEO | locked

I... see.

[Shino's only real experience in dealing with those from the opposite sex was with Kurenai and Hinata. No problems there. He has absolutely nothing to add to this topic. Should he offer his condolences..?]

[itsjustdust]

That was my reaction too. Made zero sense to me man, kami.

[He does not envy you, bro.

... But he also has a healthy respect for Tenten and is smart enough not to verbalise it.]

I gave her a blade, that settled her down pretty quick since they're kinda illegal here. So shh.

It's good that you are not on bad terms...

Because she specialises in weapons, I suppose she would be grateful for it.

[SHINO'S BODY IS DEVOID OF INSECTS AND IT'S DISTURBING.]

And are you okay? What with the whole, you know thing they do here.

VIDEO | locked

[aburame]

You'll have to specify what the 'thing they do here' is... because I do not 'know' what you are referring to.

Changing the physical around so it fits normal, including chakra, scars, and I'm guessing your bugs too. You seem pretty antsy for an Aburame right now so it made me wonder.

[Obito was that a bug pun.]

... I am without my kikaichu presently. [An Aburame without their insects is like having a blind Hyuuga. Unheard of.]

[itsjustdust]

I can't even imagine that. So. I take it you're gonna be all over the bug types and communing with them and stuff?

(OOC: I'll just be over here, laughing my ass off.)

[aburame]

For now, that is the plan...

(OOC: ... d-don't look at me best/worst typo ever. Also oops I lost notif for this one, sorry.)
