[005] Damn, it's snowing outside...

Damn. Snow.

You know, I probably  could take my fan and blow all of this fucking snow elsewhere...I hate snow. I'm not a fan of snow, much... I'm more of a hot-weather kinda gal...

Well, I was born and raised in the desert...go figure.

Gaara's escaped from the Hospital Wing before he was supposed to

Yeah, but sand makes lousy snowballs. *grin*

Let me talk to Lee first. I've found out... it's true, what I suspected about the past. They were best friends, and I never knew. Distracted, you say? Sakura said he doesn't seem to remember anything since before the masquerade. Do you know where he is?

Kimimaro stayed with Lee while I was on the field trip, and he's in Gryffindor Tower now. I'm training with him tomorrow in the Great Hall, but I'll try to get him down to the Wing for a checkup before anyone comes in for breakfast.

I heard that. I don't control sand, Gaara does. I'm more of a wing-type person.

...

WHAT??! What do you mean they were 'best friends'? Where the Hell did you get that idea from??

Gaara is in the Slytherin Tower right now. Last I checked, he was looking out of the window (I saw him from outside).

Wait, what does Sakura have to do with Gaara? How does she know...?

Remember I told you there was a possibility that Lee and Gaara had met in the past? It's been confirmed. I saw a picture; it's definitely them. *rubs brow wearily* They couldn't have been more than five or six at the time, but Lee didn't tell me about it until this year. He still hasn't mentioned Gaara's name. That shattered hourglass Lee was crying over on the Tower... it was a present from Gaara, and Gaara was the one who broke it with a glance.

As for Sakura, she was the one who alerted me to the possibility -- she recognized Gaara from Lee's description of his old friend.

[[Info dump yay!]]

*took a while to absorb it all*

What's this picture you've been talking about? How can you be sure it's them...? Sure you didn't recognize that kid with someone else...?

I dunno if...*sighs* You know, forgive me...I'm still in a little blind disbelief at hearing all of this. It's just so coincidental...In any case, if what you say is true...shouldn't I approach him first...? I mean, since Gaara's my brother...

I dunno...should we even talk to him...together...?

[[S'okay, you can 'show' Temari the picture, but you don't have to actually link to it since I already know what it looks like...]]

I already gave it back to Lee... but if you'd seen it, you wouldn't have any doubts. The face, the hair, the eyes... smaller, gentler, but it's definitely him. I find myself wondering who took the picture.....

I think you're right. We should talk to him together. He was going out to the greenhouses with Kimimaro today. I'm working to catch up on Arithmancy, but should be done in time to meet him there afterwards.
