Anatole was definitely no Sunagakure when it came to views of the night sky, but Sasori had to admit the sunrises and sunsets could be rather spectacular due to the light-scattering qualities of the Mist. It had become a bit of a ritual for him, coming up to the rooftops to watch the sunset before heading off to work down in the underground; tonight however, he didn't have one of his usual Dismas missions, but something that was more of a self-imposed one.
He held his hand up to cach the remaining light, scowling at the string wrapped around his finger. He'd resolved to handle this matchmaking nonsense as expediently as possible at the outset...until he'd seen Helen's post on the network and been intrigued by her preference for hunting down her match rather than seeing them come forwards. Challenges were always something he couldn't resist, and so he'd chosen to play into it, even if he wasn't completely certain she was his match.
The rooftops seemed an ideal place to retreat to in order to make things more difficult for her. He just hoped that he wasn't wasting his time by doing all this. He could certainly use the distraction from thinking about the other aspects of his so-called social life, namely Sakura and Deidara.
