It was bad enough that they had been in his home, now they wanted to dictate the temperature of it. Neji followed the others movements, eyes narrowing a little more with each step his sensei had taken across the creaky floorboards. He was sure the other had some excuse or another for trying to give him a cold. Turning his head, he let out a huff, the air already so cold that his breath was showing. He muttered under his breath, the blank look on his face returning as the elder man continued. Leaning back on his hands he lets out a breath he calmed himself. Then stretched out a foot, to gently kick some of the wood burning in the middle of the room into the fire pit more. " It's just winter. There's hardly any nature at this time." Looking toward the other, he stares, watching them intently "The air is nice, when it's cold." Before he could help himself he turned his head away, realizing he had been happy that the other had showed up. Rather than annoyed by them, even if they had been opening all the windows, a faint smile inched onto his lips “ My day wouldn’t have started of, or even ended right, if I didn’t see you at least once. I suppose.” Neji says, trying to seem casual and dismissive about it. attempting to undersell what he was saying.
