Echoing what has been said above, and I really like the balance of Yuugao's newbie observations, and Hayate's I-live-here POV, (for some reason, ANBU captains having offices tickles me), with the process of them getting to know one another.
Which is the reason I think we could never successfully write this as a standard one-POV fic. I like knowing what the other person's thinking, and I'm especially fond of the way they keep mistaking each other. Awkward = yay! in writing, if not in real life. XDD
You know the ANBU captains throw office parties, and hang out to complain at the water cooler. And possibly use the couches for purposes other than napping, but no one's supposed to know that.
Kakashi: uses his couch as a dog bed for Pakkun. Raidou: can't find his couch under the books he has piled on top of it. Ends up sitting on the floor, on a cushion, reading. Yamanaka: has installed grow lights, and uses his as a plant shelf Ibiki: has a couch with bloodstains Genma: *leers* "You wanna know what we can do on my couch?" Hayate: After that one mission, when Yuugao fell asleep on his couch... Hayate can't look at his couch without blushing.
There is so much love for you. XDDDDD It almost makes me want to write a discussion about the couches just so we can use Genma's line (though I think in Moonlight on Masks, Genma and Raidou may have already left ANBU. I'm not sure about this, though. Can you believe we've never discussed it?)
Yuugao falling asleep on the couch will go in at some point, though. ♥!
When Genma had signed up for ANBU, he hadn't really paid attention to the clause that said former ANBU members could be recalled at need for missions after retirement. Genma hadn't really expected to retire alive, and although ANBU could force their agents to do many things, he doubted they called up dead agents for missions. Often. Surely he wasn't specialized enough

Usually you're pretty quick to reply, and I was wondering if you'd wandered away, and kind of sad I wouldn't get to talk LJ at you any longer. I never dreamed you'd do this--and make it WORK. Make it work so fabulously that I am torn between falling at your feet and giggling my head off.
The last paragraph... There is nothing I can say except love. I really like that line about "careful lack of suspicion", too.
OMG you make me grin so hard! And I know I"ve made it as a fanfic author when my fanfic spawns fanfic of its own. This is absolute, pure delight. <333333333
