ninja commiserator

[sunshrouded]

[from here!]

[ . . . . snorts.

Tenka just laughs faintly at that and well -- he can acknowledge an attempt from someone to try to cheer him up.]

Ahh, well there's that! I guess any place with decent food can't be all bad.

[sagemodes]

Right? I mean, I don't get all these ballroom dancing too, but they're a bit fun!

[ ...beat. ]

Well, when you're not tripping over each other, that is.

[sunshrouded]

[ . . . . and he just laughs a bit at that.]

Yeah? You fall on top of a lady friend tonight already?

[sagemodes]

...Kind of! It wasn't as embarrassing as I thought, though.

[ No it was the topic that caused him the trip that was embarrassing. ]

[sunshrouded]

[Tenka just cracks up at that.]

Bahahaha!! Really? She didn't slap you or sock you in the gut?

[sagemodes]

Nope! Well, I won't be surprised if she did, though. We didn't really start on the right foot, to be honest,

[ ...whether he means it literally or not is up to Tenka's interpretation. ]

[sunshrouded]

Well, getting the steps right to start would probably help--

[Though he's mostly joking at that. Still, he's laughing.]

I'd call you a lucky man though. Most ladies don't take well to being fallen on.

[sagemodes]

Really? I thought most girls would understand if their partner are not that good at dancing.

[ no naruto they'd probably slap you. ]

[sunshrouded]

[That much manages to get Tenka to crack up.]

I have this one I've known since childhood -- [though Kiiko's much less girl and much more woman] -- and I'm pretty sure even if I warned her that I wasn't good at it, she'd sock me in the gut.

So... congrats!

...and i thought i already tagged this

[sagemodes]

Heh, thanks! [ even if he doesn't really know what he's being congratulated about. ]

So, what's your name! Mine's Naruto Uzumaki, and I'm going to be the best ninja to ever live!

no worries!

[sunshrouded]

[ . . . . . . damn, that's a lot of confidence. Tenka raises a brow at that before laughing.]

Naruto-kun, best ninja ever, huh...? Well, I'm Kumou Tenka, 14th Head of the Kumou Family - strongest in all of Shiga!

[damn who put these two boastful guys together]

[sagemodes]

Heh, strongest guy, huh! That sounds like a reputation to live up to!

[ someone stop them before they get really loud. ]

[sunshrouded]

[why would you stop this meeting of idiots]

Well, it's just a fact! I'm famous in other prefectures, even!!

[sagemodes]

[ for the sake of sousei's sanity, maybe!? ]

Whoa, really!? I'm honored to meet a guy like you!

[ oh lord. ]

[sunshrouded]

[who gives a shit about sousei's sanity!!!]

Bahahaha!! [what an obnoxious laugh] That's right, that's right. Don't worry, I get that all the time!

[nO HE DOESN'T?]

If you're lucky, Naruto-kun, I'll even take you under my wing!

[sagemodes]

Alright, I'll make sure to get strong enough to be worthy of you!

[ beat. ]

For now, you're my new friend!

[sunshrouded]

Bahaha!! Well, you won't see me arguing that any time soon!

[HE'S ALWAYS HAPPY TO MAKE NEW FRIENDS.]

You'll be part of my family in no time, Naruto-kun.
