2.2 : [010] Not a meek and mild mannered alter ego

Feb 19, 2009 19:04

[Sakura is pacing the in front fofthe medical tent, lit by firelight, the sphere following]

Neil, thank you for tea the other day. I really needed the company, I appreciate it.

Miss Allison, would you like to train together a bit? I'd like to see how you fight.

[She takes a deep breath, turns and glares at the sphere]

Sasuke. Both of you. Stop avoiding ( Read more... )

/is so smooth SO SMOOTH redpaperfan February 20 2009, 04:23:23 UTC

Not particularly. It's just less likely to happen, so it leaves an impact after a while.

Yes, so smooth. RIGHT. fearlessflower February 20 2009, 04:37:38 UTC

[This is a glare]

Don't correct me when I'm annoyed.

Are you coming to visit or do I have to find you?

Pfft, so he's a bit rough. Oh, this is so filtered, too. =|a redpaperfan February 20 2009, 04:40:55 UTC

[ Raises an eyebrow, and a cup of tea. ]

Tea?

[ Because it's more interesting if she has to find him. ]

Filter; A bit, like sandpaper, or a chainsaw? Also, Icon wins. fearlessflower February 20 2009, 04:45:32 UTC

[Glares more. Because he is an impossible man and really, honestly, why does she put up with him again?]

Fine. It better be good tea.

[Picks up her medical bag out of habit and pours sand over the fire, than heads off to search for Sasuke, sphere following.]

Filter; Think diamond blades. =|b And thank you <3 redpaperfan February 20 2009, 05:02:33 UTC

It's decent.

[ He's sitting nice and neat in his treehouse. He's not bothering to mask himself, since by now it's a moot point as far as concealing his residence is concerned. ]

Filter; Oooh ho ho. Most omnious tea ever. fearlessflower February 20 2009, 05:06:03 UTC

[Dark, dark muttering.]

[She arrives beneath his tree about ten minutes later and looks up, hands on her hips.]

Hey.

Filter; Ho-ho-ho-ho~ redpaperfan February 20 2009, 05:20:11 UTC

[ He raises a hand in greeting, then gestures to one of the pillows on the floor.

What western seating? ]

You wanted to talk.

[ It could have been a question, except he didn't phrase it that way. ]

In person fearlessflower February 20 2009, 05:26:27 UTC

[She switches the sphere off, settles down on a pillow and stares, jaw set stubbornly.]

Why have you been avoiding me?

[Not "have you been" because that would be inane. She actually has a lot she wants to talk about, but that's a good start.]

MANO A MANO redpaperfan February 20 2009, 05:36:06 UTC

[ He makes sure his sphere is off, takes a sip of his tea - pours Sakura a cup - and then...

Answers, in his way. He sounds almost bored, but that's more a function of his tone's neutrality than feeling. ]

I felt it would be wise at the time.

FACE TO FACE fearlessflower February 20 2009, 05:39:52 UTC

[She murmurs a thanks for the tea, ingrained politeness as she takes the cup.]

[She's pretty good at filtering out the Sasuke-tone and trying to read the real cadence of his voice. She's fairly certain he's not actually bored.]

Why?

[Insistent. Why? Why? She could probably ask questions all day and never satisfy her need to know things.]

Is it because of the other you, the one from my world?

TEACUP TO TEACUP redpaperfan February 20 2009, 05:45:24 UTC

[ He holds his head tilted a bit to the side, before briefly closing his eyes. ]

More or less. It's easier to form an understanding of someone new by observing them.

[ Or the people around them. He hadn't wanted to interfere inadvertently in any sort of first interactions between the two. Politeness and respect for the individuals involved, really. ]

ONE ON ONE fearlessflower February 20 2009, 05:54:56 UTC

[She lets out a sigh, more like a sharp exhale, and takes a sip of the tea before it gets cold.]

But why avoid me? You talked to me fine before. I've known since the start you weren't him, that doesn't change that I consider you a friend.

[She was still confused how to treat the situation, but she'd been unhappy when Sasuke sort of backed off. With Naruto disappearing she'd felt pretty lost. He might not have been her Sasuke, but she still felt closer to him than anyone from other worlds, even if Neil was starting to really gain her trust.]

...WHEN THEY'RE DANCING CHEEK TO CHEEK~ redpaperfan February 21 2009, 06:45:44 UTC

Distance seemed necessary. If the matter were on a confusion of identities, I wouldn't be sitting here talking with you now.

[ And that had the air of truth - a complete and utter truth, to him. ]

FINE YOU WIN fearlessflower February 21 2009, 07:37:13 UTC

[She considered him, seriously, then let her gaze drop down to her teacup.]

I guess so. Does distance still seem necessary? I would like to talk to you more.

\o/ redpaperfan February 21 2009, 07:50:40 UTC

[ He pauses, gives one definite shake of his head, and sips at his tea.

Then breaches an entirely different topic. ]

I see you've been talking at Itachi.

/o/ fearlessflower February 21 2009, 08:35:20 UTC

[She looks up, surprised and interested.]

Yes. Probably more than wise.

Why? What happened between you two?
