"First person to bring me thirty dollars gets some very valuable info on this wild pegasus chase…maybe.”

[ramenlovingbaka]

"Thirty dollars?!" Naruto gasped. "That's so freakin' expensive!" A pause. "How about a nickel?" They're shiny nickels. 

[steelmagonlia]

"I’m not sure, I didn’t ask what was for dinner seeing as I didn’t help cook tonight for once." Asami said thinking about it. She hadn’t paid attention when she had walked into the kitchen either.

[ramenlovingbaka]

"That's great! Now I can actually eat something edible for once." Naruto joked. He was digging himself an early grave, man.

[thegesumonster]

"Do you think that’s a wise choice!?"

[ramenlovingbaka]

"Probably not. But I gotta check it out! Watch me kick down the door all super cool like--"

[ramenlovingbaka]

"Put it away."

"You can’t tell me how to live my life!" Devours his tenth bowl of ramen. Screw prom diet Naruto will accept his freshman fifteen.

⊰ ♠ ⊱ — Everyone has an escape from the dark reality that they face. Some put their happiness in worldly possessions… Others, in the heart or body of another person, their very existence giving them the light from the cruel world that they need to survive… Leaching off of another as your source of happiness. He thought it was disgusting and foolish how the world put it’s pleasure and very life upon the existence of another living creature. What good had humans ever done? Nothing. Instead, he put his one escape from the hell of a world he lived in upon something within his grasp.. something he created. Music. Slender, pale digits gracefully glided across porcelain keys

               The song that emitted from the instrument began very simple, in a minor key that caused it to be haunting as it echoed through the empty music room — as it was after hours. He was no longer a student here, graduating 4 years prior.. However his music teacher appreciated his talent so much that he was granted a key so long as he kept funding the school through donation; being perhaps the one kindness he grant. He continued to play, the song progressively adding more notes and different patterns to the some how sad tune.

                                                                                                         His hands danced over the piano even after he heard the slight creaking of the door, judging by the unwary footsteps, it was no one to cause harm… Assuming it was a school working, he continued, closing emerald hues as to encompass himself in only the music that filled the empty corridors of the academy. The music picked up further, his body now slightly swaying with the tune as it progressed. It was almost as though he wasn’t even breathing, his entire focus solely upon the sound he was creating that flowed all too well.

                And then it slowed. The chords became basic once more, the dissonance growing before ending on a major chord, rather than minor… a surprisingly light chord to end a dark song upon. The strings from within the instrument rang even after his hands left the keys, however, he did not open his eyes until the sound had finished echoing through the room. “I wasn’t aware there were still students here at this hour.” His tone was almost harsh, as though giving a warning that he didn’t particularly wish to be bothered after he had figured out it was no worker. Still, he did not turn to face whomever may be there.

Some days you had to break. Not necessarily in a negative way. Breaking out of your comfort zone was always a plus. Naruto's comfort zone was a blanket built up as easily as it could be taken down. He methodically pulled down those walls everyday. When no one else was around. And he had the entire space to himself to be... himself. 

He couldn't be free at the Orphanage. He couldn't open his mouth and let the words and melodies and music flow out in his room. So he took the Subway over to school, late at nights, to take off a bit of heavy armor. To be himself and just let everything go. 

He ran down the halls, jumping steps two a time, his mind set on one destination. As he got closer, he started to hear music. Eerie, haunting, and deceitfully inviting. Anyone, son of Apollo or otherwise, would slow their steps to listen. Naruto eased down to a jog, to a walk, one foot carefully moving on front of the other as he yearned to hear more.

Obviously someone else was in the room, killing Naruto's plan of a solo session. But that was fine. Whoever the pianist was could keep playing all day as far as Naruto was concerned. The melody was beautiful. He pressed against the wall, right by the doorway, and took a second to just soak up the music. As a child of Apollo music was the same thing as air. Easy, accessible, life-bringing. Shivers danced down his spine with every chord struck, and before he could stop himself Naruto was already walking towards the pianist. 

Stark. Black, midnight hair met his eyes. Pale fingers danced along the ivory keys. Naruto was mesmeroized. Then a voice broke him from his chance. He jumped, a little screech erupting from his lips. Dammit, he hadn't meant to be noticed. Naruto actually tried being quiet for once. 

The harsh tone had jarred Naruto out of his fantasy. Blue eyes narrowed suspiciously. "They don't. I'm here for..." Lie, Uzumaki. Lie. "Chemistry," he blurted, nodding to reassure his own lie. "I've never seen you here before, though. Do you even go here?"

Send one of the following to my muse to see how they react:

[ramenlovingbaka]

"Nh, don’t be so rough!"

"You don’t need to be so gentle."

"You’re really good at this…"

"Are you sure you know what you’re doing?"

"I want to try this thing I read in a book."

"Are you sure they won’t find out?"

"Don’t make me beg."

"I’m all for spicing thing’s up, but isn’t this a bit much?"

"I am not wearing that.”

"Put it away."

"Where do you even find this sort of thing?"

"Are you sure this is legal?"

"I’ll be there in five minutes."

"This is really inappropriate."

"What if someone catches us?"

"I don’t want to look at you right now."

"You have ten minutes, so make it quick."

"Who’d have guessed you could pull such a face?"

"What sort of noise was that?"

"We’re moving too fast."

"If you stay quiet, no one will know."

"I know your secret."

[thegesumonster]

"Someone told me a bunch of illegal stuff goes on in there!"

[ramenlovingbaka]

"I GOTTA GO CHECK IT OUT. FOR LAW ENFORCEMENT."

[magxcks]

      Literally avoids everyone. Nope. Not getting involved with any crazies tonight. 

[ramenlovingbaka]

Wonders why you're being even more creepy by avoiding people. 

[thegesumonster]

"I’d stay away from this building if I were you."

[ramenlovingbaka]

"What's wrong with the building?"

[steelmagonlia]

"not my fault if you get sick like you did last time." She told him in a matter of fact tone of voice before ruffling his hair. "Not go wash up, dinner if gonna be ready soon."

[ramenlovingbaka]

Naruto pouted. "Not gonna get sick," he protested, though he did roll off the couch. Stretching, his shirt peeking up a bit, he scratched at his stomach and rolled his head to the side. "What's for dinner tonight anyways? Please tell me it's something I can actually eat."

[ramenlovingbaka]

1920 and Naruto still has a fabulous ass. 

[steelxmagnoliax]

"Just people watching is all." Shura said with a smile on her face. "It’s pretty fun."

[ramenlovingbaka]

"Looks kinda boring..." Naruto could never just sit there and watch people. He'd get bored. He tilted his head to the side. "Do you ever, ya know, talk to the people you creep on?"

[steelmagonlia]

"it’s not my fault you decided to sleep in the hottest room in the building, go sleep in your room with the windows open then." Asami said sighing. "And come drink some water if you’re so hot."

[ramenlovingbaka]

Naruto puffed out his cheeks. "You nag too freakin' much, Asami! This couch is like, the comfiest couch in the entire place. Course I'm gonna fall asleep in like 4 seconds of putting my butt on here." Logic man. Can't beat it. 

[steelxmagnoliax]

"People are so very lively today." Shura said as she continued to people watch.

[ramenlovingbaka]

"Why are you just standing there?" Naruto stop looking at her boobs, you perv. 

[ramenlovingbaka]

freedomfought said: "Wow."

"Shut up! It was a dare! I didn't do this on purpose!"

[freedomfought]

[ramenlovingbaka]

Naruto had two tubs of ice cream in the palms of his hand. He was feeling pretty skeptical about this. Then again, no one should ever feel confident about sticking ice cream down their pants. But this was for a good cause! To keep Naruto happily buzzed on ramen. He was doing the right thing. 

"I'm sorry," he whispered to his nether regions before popping open the first tub. He pulled at the waistband of his pants and slowly dumped the ice cream down.

Naruto screamed like a little girl but in a court of law he would have denied the fact greatly.

The second tub was even worse.
