It was--strange, seeing Naruto naked. They'd been nude around each other before, but that was when they'd still been a team, prepubescent and far too caught up in their rivalry to notice anything physical about one another. Now, however--now it was different. They'd both had three years to mature and change, and the young man Sasuke was looking at was barely recognizable from the exuberant little boy he remembered.

Feeling bizarrely self-conscious, Sasuke forced himself not to stare, smirking a little at his friend. Naruto looked--good. He looked stronger than when they'd last seen each other, despite a little less muscular than he should have been. It was to be expected; this place sucked the life out of people, and the food was less than nutritious.

"Hey idiot," he said flippantly. "About time your ass got here."

After taking note of the obvious physical changes in Naruto, he began to notice something slightly--off about the other. His smile seemed strained; much less bright and unassuming as before, and he would be foolish to question why. He'd heard what the others had said over the intercom, and it had infuriated him in a way he hadn't expected. Somehow, the thought of anyone tearing Naruto down--here, of all places, where they were supposed to band together, give each other strength--upset him on a level that was almost personal.
