[19] business as usual

[asuka_sensei]

Mission is coming up. Sai, Sachiko, you're coming along. Meet me and Shikako at the east gate in two days, 0900 hours, for a brief before we go. Expect to be gone for a while, so pack accordingly.

Don't worry about it.

See you when you get back. Maybe I'll even cook for you.

[asuka_sensei]

... please don't burn down my apartment while I'm gone. I've gotten very fond of it.

[chiriku]

Y'know, one time, that one time in which I accidentally singed my robes because I was tired...

[asuka_sensei]

Yes, that one time. And no, you will never live it down.

Ever.

[chiriku]

It was five years ago!~

[asuka_sensei]

... so? It's not like you've ever needed to cook again since then, miss master of temple minions.

[chiriku]

Hey now, I didn't make houshi-sama until well after that incident.

[asuka_sensei]

And so? Miss temple master of temple minions in training probably didn't have to cook very often, either. And it's not like boiling cabbage exactly takes talent. Even I can do that.

:P

[chiriku]

*sniffs* I can do more than boil cabbage, thank-you-very-much. And I still had to cook as often as the others. Just less than the acolytes. Considerably more than Sensei, I can assure you.

Re: :P

[asuka_sensei]

That's because you don't have a temple master of temple minions in training to cook for you. Or any nearby take-out.

Re: :P

[chiriku]

You know, if you weren't heading out on a mission, I'd say today was a lovely day for sparring. Dork.

[asuka_sensei]

If I weren't heading out on a mission, I'd take you up on that offer and kick your holy ass. It's my only redeeming quality.

[chiriku]

And what if I said taijutsu only? You have redeeming qualities?

Tsk.

[asuka_sensei]

I can use chakra and still do taijutsu only. It's a very carefully hidden redeeming quality.

:3

[chiriku]

Sure, sure, brag about chakra-use.

Fine. Taijutsu only, no chakra.  So hidden you'd need an Inuzuka to sniff it out?

Re: :3

[asuka_sensei]

... too bad I'm going on a mission, huh?

... I don't think he'd be sniffing out the hidden redeeming qualities, if you know what I mean.
