Irreplaceable;

@desolateroot​ from here;

It wasn't the nickname that Sai used that was making her heart flutter- it was the expression he was making. Big, black eyes, searching for positive emotions after a long period of absence. He had spent a long portion of his life, fighting with unfeeling- and now, he was ready to surrender.

But how could she reassure him that he was not a replacement for Sasuke when he resembled the boy so much? The same beauty, the same genius... and the same, heart breaking loneliness.

Except for one, fundamental difference- Sai did not sever bonds. He wanted to forge them. He struggled, yes, but his efforts were what truly set him apart from others. In Ino’s eyes, she thought Sai was the masterpiece he wanted to paint. He rose above the despair and trauma of his life, by wanting to look at the beauty of the world, rather than running from it. That showed strength of character, and earned her respect more than any glorious nickname he could have came up with it.

"I enjoy spending time with you as well, Sai-Kun. You're not a replacement for anyone,” she began quietly, softly. Her pale eyes held his and she offered him a soft smile.

 “A person’s mind can lie, but their feelings are always sincere. You did used to look like Sasuke-Kun at first, but you have made your own place, not just in the heart of team seven, but everyone else's heart too. And the place a person has in someone's heart is not an easy thing to erase. You are irreplaceable, Sai-Kun.”

The bees knees;

@desolateroot

Thoughtfully, he takes the flower and examines it, closely.  Studying flowers and their varying meanings has become a recent hobby for him.

“What does this flower mean?” He asks, curiously, glancing at her.

The delicate scent of fresh lavender permeated through the store. Ino had managed to secure a whole batch of them and enjoyed the light fragrance that clung to her fingers.

She even handed one over to Sai, who she hailed by the store when she caught him walking past.

“Lavender smells lovely and attracts bees. You had wanted to paint insects, didn’t you?”

Study and use them in battle if he could, so she was trying to help.

“Oh, hehe. Its meaning is just as lovely as its scent. A lavender for faithfulness. And look at the colour on this!”

Lost & Found

@saiology

❝ Sorry, I think got a bit carried away ❞, a tiny smile in apologies, closing his sketchbook. He had left for a more quiet, remote place to draw early in the morning and hadn’t bothered to return to eat or notify anyone since then.  

❝ Did you need me for anything? ❞

Yes, Ino had been searching high and low for this elusive artist when he had not arrived at the meeting place all the rest of the rookies had promised each other to meet. Ino had of course, volunteered to look for Sai, hoping to get him alone to herself, if only for a few minutes- but she sorely regretted it when it took over an hour or so.

But finally, finally, she spotted him. Hunched over his sketchpad, almost in a world of his own.

“Sai-Kun...?”

Sai offered her one of his quiet, enigmatic smiles and she had to be a little curious as to what was more important than eating breakfast with everyone?

“Did you forget, we have to eat breakfast with everyone on their day off. Naruto’s new prosthetic arm has arrived!”

“And Sasuke-Kun refused his. But yeah, we’re all eating together- so come on!”

paintersai replied to your post “FMK : Kiba, Sasuke, Sai”

"...Ino. I...don't think I'm ready for marriage..."

Oh great. He had also overheard it. HOW?

And the boy probably thought Ino was crazy and creepy in more ways than ones.

A high, false laugh. "Ahaha, Sai-San."

"It's just a game and it's unlikely to happen. Well, I know it won't happen."

Room-mates <3

The other emitted a chakra that Sai has never encountered before. It was less like a chakra, to be exact.

The shinobi blinked at the gesture he got in return. It was something that he didn’t expect. Weren’t people supposed to shake hands when they first meet? Perhaps from where his roommate came from, their practice is different…

"Ah. Nice to meet you, Gremmy."

"By the way, is that what your people do when they introduce themselves to others? It’s unlike from what I’ve seen or read in books."

Gremmy's smile widened as the shinobi spoke, he'd forgotten that you were meant to say that as well.

"Nice to meet you too~"

His head tilted as he considered the question, he'd not expected a quiz and especially not such a question. Though his brow crinkled at the last comment, "Yup~ I saw it on tv!" Well that wasn't strictly true, he'd actually read it in a book, back when he was in the vandenreich not that he had any intention of admitting to reading...let alone which book it came out of. "Pride and Prejudice" wasn't exactly a masculine book. 

"Your people are the same as Ino-san, right?" He asked curiously, the other felt similar but also different.

[everyonesfavouredvisionary]

"Hello. My name's Sai. How do you do?" The shinobi greeted with a smile on his face. "We'll be staying here together, so I hope we'll get along well." With that said, Sai offered his hand for a handshake. From what he learned, it's a gesture that people usually do to introduce themselves to someone.

The childish Quincy tilted his head, studying the stranger. A room-mate…he’d never had one before, well he hoped that the other Sai didn’t mind the occurrences which tended to happen when the imaginative Quincy slept.

"I’m Gremmy~" He smiled sweetly, "I’m sure we will~ If not I’ve always wanted a pet fox~" He finished, taking the proffered hand and kissing it with a smile. That was what people were meant to do right?
