Oh a very, very small amount.

madshinobi replied to your post “madshinobi replied to your post: No you can not have 88 horses But...”
I fear if I say that means we should have -more- we will end up with 200 horses...
Are you simply going to stand for this then? The Senju already have more livestock, more birds, more goats, more horses. Here we are with a sad 20 some horses and there the Senju are with 88 horses. Don’t we look a bit pathetic?
Not quite. You did give him the damn thing knowing how he is. Alliance or no, it's hardly safe for him to parade around in it. A fact perhaps you can aid me in reminding him? Hm?
Did you, perhaps, explain... why it might be such a suboptimal decision?
And if so I’d sincerely doubt the effectiveness of myself repeating it.
You do realize he's wearing your gift. With the Senju crest. Around my camp.
/There seems to be a lengthy period of internal discussion accompanied by an illustrative, by his standards, face journey./
... I recommended that the crest at least be covered.
And therefore I am absolved.
Do you not find chakra reading easier and more intense with skin contact? /A genuine question as his hand is promptly pulled away, shaken, wiped off on his robe for good measure before the glove is put it back on. A shrug./ Think what you like, but you can not have a sea without a stream to fill it now can you? It can be more impressive and important than at first glance.
I should think that proximity rather defeats the purpose...
/A particularly critical squint is cast over the other, while his hand is tucked into crook of his elbow, out of harm’s way./
...As would taking such artistic liberties with something as immutable as sensing.
Still, your assessment is accepted.
It's just a giant salty lake, is it not? /He comes close then, a quick look over the Senju with a frustrated sigh before settling for placing his bare hand over Tobirama's where it rested over his bicep. He leaves it there as he speaks./ You're not the sea, as I understand it. Or a lake. No. You are a stream. A mountain stream, specifically.
/That comment functions so expertly as a diversion that… that does not result in instant horrified recoil, but rather it’s tempered into plain old bewilderment. Despite this the presented concept is clearly given a few moments of thought, the end of which heralded with a short clearing of his throat./
… I maintain. The sea is the correct conclusion to be drawn here. However, if that is what your… hand reading has… scried? Then that’s it.
It wouldn't be possible, no. We've been surrounded on all sides by enemy clans for as long as I've been alive. /A wave of his hand, to both dismiss the subject and to continue the motion to remove his glove with more flourish than necessary./ Well, hold still a moment and I'll tell you. If you're looking for a serious answer.
/Seemingly still in thought, he would have been quite content to remain still. That was before the Uchiha apparently decides to do what may well be one of the most single-handedly ominous things he could do in this situation. If anything the sharp turn of his head and defensive arm-refold is an under reaction./
That hardly means you don’t know what the sea is like.
Well?
/The answer brings an amused smirk, growing as the Senju continues./ So, you are saying I'm a bit difficult to reach, but the view is worth it when you do? More poetic than I expected. From you. But, I will take it. However, no I will not compare you to the sea as I have never seen it. It would be inaccurate to do so.
/Throughout this the Senju may as well have been chewing off his tongue with the strain of not spitting back some predictably venomous rebuttal, certainly his expression would lend credence to that much. All hackles, the makings of accusatory point are initialised. Yet as quickly as it manifests that indignation seems to be drained away./
… You’ve… never seen it? … I suppose borders as they were it wouldn’t-…
/He trails off, the point still hanging in place until he seems to catch himself./
Nonetheless. What, then, if not that.
