As Jiraiya lay dying, Tsunade holds her hands over his wounds, trying to encourage the blood not to escape, but it's futile.
"How's it?" he asks.
"You're dying," she whispers because he deserves truth.
"Fuck. Guess my date with Tsubaki-chan isn't going to happen."
There are so many things she wants to say. Instead, she leans forward, kissing him gently on the lips. He smiles, and then a deep, familiar sigh escapes his body and he's gone.
Tsunade doesn't attend the funeral. Instead, she goes out and gets rip-roaring drunk, making sure to treat the bar to several rounds on her.
