NO. [Naruto had frozen where he sat, now glaring at the table fiercely and trembling slightly]
You're not fine. I'm not fine. Yosuke's not fine. Nill's not fine. NOTHING about ANYTHING is fucking FINE. I am fucking sick of everything going to SHIT and I'm not losing ANOTHER best friend. [he suddenly rubs his forehead, shielding his face] ...Fuck.
Yeah, you rotting in here instead of being home with us isn't "lost". Look-- [he leans forward and stares intently at Shika, palms down on the table] I'm with you on this. But I'm not giving up on you, not now, not EVER, and stop pretending that this is all "okey-dokey" because it fucking ISN'T.
[oh. well. had him fooled for a minute. he leans back again, folding his arms and sulking but in a good-natured sort of way] Good, or I'd hafta punch some sense into you, dumbass.
