Plops on his bed with plates of his favorite food.

“I’m staying here tonight. Also, I brought books, so you aren’t

allowed to complain and say I’m a nuisance.”

Because she totally isn’t feeling at home in her own place, so crashing

here is a-okay.

“You also beat my ass today, so this is definitely payback and not because

I actually have human emotions. Those are for pussies.”

Being around another girl is easier for Rin, even though she spent her time in the company of men. They were gentler on children, she thought, or at least that was what instinct said. Mothers, right? Not that she had enough experience with her own to know. Still, she relaxes with this one and nods. “That would be very nice, Saki-sama. Would you stay with me?” It’s not that she’s scared, not exactly. It’s just that she doesn’t know what else – or who else – is here, and people make her anxious.

“Y’ can just call me Saki, neh---- no one uses honorifics with me, honestly.” If the girl stayed here for very long, it might become apparent that Saki’s own family had a strong dislike toward her. No, she was the black sheep of the Otsuka clan for a reason.

Saki paused, nodding in agreement. “Sure, if that’s what you’d prefer. Do you need anything else, hime-chan?”

he just wanted some bloody peace and quiet. was that so much to ask? he almost regrets asking to stay here; the compound is almost too noisy for him.

he eyes the bag of supplies before sighing and looking to the girl instead. she doesn’t seem intimidated by him, which irritates him a tad.

“ …thank you, i suppose. do you treat all your guests this way? “

“Well----we don’t usually have guests, but I’m less apt to give a

foreigner the stink eye if that’s what you’re implying.” He seems

irritable, but Saki figured that it wouldn’t be the most awful a thing

to give him. “You look exhausted----I can tell everyone to not bother

you, if you’d like. The compound will be less busy tomorrow since

some are leaving for a fishing trip.”

“Ah----! You’re the man that Yu’s letting stay here, right?

Otsuka Saki. If y’ need anything, just let me know, all right?”

She’s even brought him a bag of general supplies. “There’s

some clothes in this if you need some extras----they should be

close t’ the right size and if they’re not, I’ll get them fixed up for

ya.”

For the next five questions my muse can not tell a lie.

There’s a face he hasn’t seen in ages.

“Saki!” Asa yells, running up beside the girl – no, woman, definitely woman, the colder gaze that turns to him is not the one he expected, and the years have obviously had their toll on her.

“I, uh, uhm…” He pauses, dumbstruck. “Hi?”

“Asa-san.” Her eyebrows raise----there’s a face she hasn’t seen in a long,

long time. “Long time no see, yeah?” There’s a mischievous glint to her eyes,

but the years have dulled it. After all, she hasn’t been home in years, either.

“You look the same.”

“Thank you for your help,” Hana says as she watches the woman make the fire. It’s surprising a stranger would offer to help her, but it is better than being cold.

She enjoys the warmth for a moment before speaking again. “I’ll have to remember to get those things when I go back home. What is your name?”

“Otsuka Saki at your service.” She bows, not as formal as the other villagers,

but it’s better than nothing. “Your dialect is distant. Not from any of the

closer countries. Where are you from, if ya don’t mind me asking?”

@cheerfulcheckers

“So you’re the little lady that Yu-chan brought home, ne? You’re very brave

being in that forest by yourself----and braver for dealing with my cousin. He

wasn’t a buttface, was he?” Saki hopes she proves to be less intimidating

than Yu. Even though he likes kids, she knows he can give the wrong

impression.

“M’ name’s Saki. I’m the Kage’s student and super strong, so ya don’t have

to worry about anything hurting you while we wait for your friend to find you.”

In her hands are soft towels, a fluffy bathrobe, and a colorful kimono that

should be close to the right size. “I’ve drawn a hot bath for you. We can’t have

you catching a cold, hm? And I can help you get into the kimono later if you’re

not sure of how to get all the parts on correctly. Is that okay?”

@bloodgrain

And he was vicious─── from the first moment his sand was torn apart, the fracture in formation was quickly repaired, twisting around the room and slamming to the door behind her. Grains of rust, tainted by the very ROT of thousands of bodies Gaara had destroyed thrust to the windows, layering amidst the room.

He wouldn’t let her escape.

He doesn’t speak back to her──── After all, from the moment he realised SHE would not be HIS, He was entirely gone.

A hand splays out, sand travelling thick amidst the air. He doesn’t send any more towards her, but rather, approaches her himself.

Pale eyes festered with madness, (In the end, there would be no way she could save him).

Finger and thumb pointed ahead, he reaches for her eyes.

THOSE BEAUTIFUL, MOTHERLY EYES.

The stench is awful & it reminds her very much of the rot of swamps. Even

more so of Shima’s legendary corpse plant, its blooming smells almost as

bad as this. Even with the madness choking the air around him, she is hopeful,

naively so.

But fire and lightning will do little against sand, a natural nullification of such

things, and it’s enough to cause her mild concern.

“It’s a lovely day out, you know? The sky is so vast and blue. I’ve not seen the

likes of it in Shima.” So she uses idle conversation to distract from the problem

at hand. Simple, but sometimes it helps diffuse this sort of thing. “You should

visit a rain forest sometime, though. I think the sounds of rain might help calm

you. The birds make songs like a lullaby.”

Saki does not move. She is confident in her taijutsu----she is confident that the

Shimakage’s teachings will not fail her, not even now. Masa told her this would

be an adventure. Right now it is for all the wrong reasons.

“But if you take my eyes, I would be very sad. They wouldn’t be able to see

the sky or watch the tigers play with their cubs. Wouldn’t it be better to share

those things?”

She’s never been one to ask for help. Unfortunately it was beginning to get cold and she had no clue how to start a fire. Hana looked at the other woman before answering her.

“Could you please? I really have no idea what I’m doing.”

“Not’ta problem!”

Saki gives her a little salute before her hand is encircled with flame.

When the kindling sparks, the rest is slow to begin burning, buy the

fire would grow healthier as the wetter wood dried.

“There ya go. For future reference, it’d be a good idea to carry some

flint and steel.”

@santatobisms

“So you’re the guy Yu-chan likes, huh?

Well, you’re handsome, I’ll give ya that.

But if you break his heart I’ll break your

fucking face.”

And she was so pure, just like she was. It made his head lull on his shoulders- his eyes rolling to his skull, and bones threatening to LOCK.

His breathing was shaky. An asthmatic──── Gaara was never GIFTED with velvet lungs, So he stood there, wheezing as his vision tricked him again,

and again,

and again.

Fingers slowly curl up, And he tastes her name on his tongue, “─Otsuka.. Saki..” for a moment, he seems calm. Serene. Understanding.

And then that expression SHATTERS,

＂…Ｉ＇ＭＧＯＩＮＧＴＯＴ̴̳̹͇̼͚̣ ̮̲̮̺͈̜̫͡Ｅ ̨͙͖͚̬͉̗Ａ̲̲͢ ̵̜̭Ｒ̼̻̲̯ ̜͇̟̥̗̺ ͡ ̢̪̙Ｏ͖̻͘ ̛͕͓̯̙̖ͅＵ̻͖ ͚̝̳͠Ｔ̥̭̙̤͢ ̭ ̪̜͡ ̸̮̺Ｙ͙̥̘͡ ͖͔͎Ｏ ̶͙̱̜͔͈̺Ｕ̜͚͖̣̗̳̪͘ Ｒ̻̭̮ ̤ ͍̯͜Ｅ̝͚́ ͎̳͓̙͇Ｙ̢̘̲̬̜̼̣̮ ̙̯̬̲̤̺͟Ｅ̘̤̞͟ ̩Ｓ͟ ．＂

And with no warning, sand ruptures from his gourd- Shooting right at her with no MERCY.

“Oi!”

A sphere of chakra erupts around her, splitting the sand and causing her dress to ruffle. Sure, the one time she decides to be casual and it ends up in a fight with a vessel.

Fucking figures.

“That’s not fair. At least give a lady a warning----”

Perhaps he needs to exhaust himself, exhaust the rage he feels. And if all else fails...well, she hears him wheezing just fine. If his lungs are weak, smoke will make matters worse for him, enough that she’d be able to have him at a severe disadvantage.

“I do not want to hurt you, but I am not beyond defending myself.”

“────No, I just─” His formalities are dropped around her, fingers quickly grown numb─ Insanity pulsating within his eyes. He lets in a shivering breath (inhaling the burning air of someone who was truly suffering), afraid, and feeling so SMALL against the large world,

His hands become clammy.

“──I-I’m not gonna.. ..Hurt you.”

What was spinning around in his head? It was making him d͇̺̻̦͖i̸̹̭e͏̝͍̦͈͇̼ inside.

“─Come b- Come here.”

It’s not going to get any better, is it? But in this case they were both alone. Yu wasn’t here to swoop in and save her----then again, he and Masa were the only ones that cared, but Masa was gone.

“Whoever you see----I am not that person.”

A gentle reminder that despite his agony there was indeed another person there.

“My name is Otsuka Saki.”

She did not step toward him, no, instead held out her hand for him to come to.

Those that were feral did not do well with the unknown approaching as if they were a friend.

It was best for him to come to her, wasn’t it?

“I’m not here to hurt you. Please, let me help.”
