[The Sand ninja is in the biodome, practicing to improve his combat efficiency. The effects of the earlier shock are still wearing off, and training would give the secondary benefit of releasing pent-up tension

Why're you just flying around?

[fifth_kazekage]

[A beep from the device alerts him of an incoming message, and he hears Rei’s question coming through.]

I am training, Rei.

[tinypurplehead]

Oh. ...How does that help you train?

[fifth_kazekage]

I need to improve my speed… be able to travel faster through the air.

[tinypurplehead]

Oookay, I get it. But doesn't the shocks make it hard if you're flying?

[fifth_kazekage]

[Slight grimace at the reminder.] I have trained under more arduous circumstances...

[tinypurplehead]

[That is an ugly, ugly word for her.]

... ...An' what does that mean?

[fifth_kazekage]

[Oops. The onslaught just never ends, does it?]

This isn't the worst condition I've been subjected to.

[tinypurplehead]

[Thank you, that's better.]

Right...

[Pause before she remembers something.]

Oh, I was supposed to ask you, why would a girl be bleeding from a strange place? Joshua wouldn't tell me.

[fifth_kazekage]

[Well, not that much better, but it's a good thing she understood his meaning.]

......

[Oh, freaking crap.]

I beg your pardon.

[tinypurplehead]

[She's used to words like that now.

She blinks at his reaction, wondering if she said something wrong.]

Well, why would a girl be bleeding from a strange place? During last week Joshua asked if anyone was bleeding from a strange place but he wouldn't explain it to me.

[Love you, daddy. 8D]

[fifth_kazekage]

[Damn it.]

Was Joshua... injured? Or was he unscathed, in a female body?

[Gotta get his facts straight, of course.]

[tinypurplehead]

No, he was fine. Or she was fine, I guess.

[Of course.]

[fifth_kazekage]

[Murmuring quietly, more so to himself than Rei.] He must have been menstruating, then...

[tinypurplehead]

[She didn't catch that, so she'll just keep repeating her question until she gets an answer.]

Soooo why would a girl be bleeding in a weird place?

[fifth_kazekage]

[Uh huh, and here is Gaara wishing that there was a girl nearby who could help Rei answer this question firsthand.]

Did Joshua mention a specific location?
