Lol, I love how Lee's gif is just Lee, and Elle being Ino's gif fits so well.
I imagine Kiba thinking back to Shikamaru's bday and Neji smelling like him🤣Poor Neji, doubt Kiba would toss the chance to give him flak.
Oohh, if Asuma and Inochi were still alive, what would be theirs? Inochi's reaction would be especially interesting considering. Would he be more accepting than he was towards Genma and Naoki?
Also, at what point do NejiShika consider themselves "official". Like, How would they answer being asked when their relationship started. I imagine it'd a "its complicated"😅 They had so many different stages of their relationship.
Heya Anon! ☕️
Ha. Glad you enjoyed those!
Yeah, Lee is pretty standard in his response. Afflicted by The Youthful Feels. 🫠
I imagine Kiba thinking back to Shikamaru's bday and Neji smelling like him.
Oh ho ho! His nose clocked it long before his noggin did.

Interesting question re: Inoichi. Probably his initial reaction would be this:
Inoichi:
Suspicion and doubt, an immediate urge to consider the source and do some fact-finding. Again, depends how he learned the information. But yes, after everything with Naoki and Genma, he’d be far more open and accepting after validating the truth.
Asuma:
He’d prioritise how Shikamaru felt about the whole thing. Because Asuma got a hint of Shikamaru’s possible involvement with a potential “He” in BtB, he wouldn’t be super shocked — however, a lot of his response/reaction would be dependent on the impact on Shikamaru.
Also, at what point do NejiShika consider themselves "official".
They don’t explicitly state this. It’s understood privately between them that they are exclusive; but given their day-to-day existence and the urgency of events leading up to the War, they’re not thinking ‘long-term’. They’re far too focused on living stolen moment to stolen moment in between the chaos.
Like, How would they answer being asked when their relationship started. I imagine it'd a "it’s complicated" & they had so many different stages of their relationship.
Ha yes. Definitely complicated. Ino would want all the details and Shikamaru would be like…
Both Shikamaru and Neji are extremely private and protective of what they have. It’s not something either of them would feel comfortable discussing. That’s not out of shame (though Neji would risk more backlash from his clan over this than Shikamaru). I mean, look at how guarded and private Asuma and Kurenai were. It’s partially-societal and particularly due to their private natures. I mean, hell, Shikamaru didn’t even want to talk about the Suna twins! 😜
Cheers, Anon! 💜
