Oh, God. It was everything that she’d feared this whole time. Even though it wasn’t Kakashi... even though it wasn’t Gai or Minato... the panic was stifling. Jiraiya had one of those easily-recognisable faces, after all. ...Maybe he wouldn’t be able to tell, though. She’d grown up over the years, and... with all of that time between this encounter and the last, she had to hold out for some hope that he just wouldn’t be able to tell. Wouldn’t be able to sense Isobu, or single out the markings on her cheeks. ...Okay. “You were looking for the head medic?” Casual. Collected.
