Mandatory vacation time was a bane to Kakashi's existence. Technically, that wasn't exactly what was happening, as he was assigned to watch over his gennin as they explored the carnival and trained for the exams, but that's what it essentially was. For the rest of the time for the Chunin exams he wasn't supposed to so much as darken the doors of the missions office and Sarutobi had made that abundantly clear in explicit detail. He hated it. It left him with too much time with thoughts and he struggled…-

Sakon didn't like the things happening in Oto, it was unnatural. Before, Otogakure was a beautiful example of embracing the reality of the world. It didn't hide behind the pretty words and comfortable lies of the world. It embraced the nature of the world. Kill or be killed. Eat or be eaten. The strong rule and the weak follow or die. It didn't pretend it was anything more than that. At least, it used to. Things had changed. Orochimaru, or rather Orochitama, had changed. They now healed and coddled the…

Sabaku no Gaara was beginning to question existence. That strange woman had defeated him with a casual ease that even now, weeks later, made his blood run cold and his gut clench as he thought of her, and ever since then his world seemed strange and foreign. He sometimes wondered if he was still dreaming; after all, this level of clarity and ease of thought could only happen in a dream, right? His father and Baki had spent much time trying to convince him that he was truly awake, but he wasn't sure of…

I had no idea what made Tsunade decide to play a game of poker with me for help with a cure for Kimimaro's autoimmune disease, but I certainly wasn't going to pass it up. Especially since the woman herself won games of chance so little that she took winning as a sign on oncoming disaster. Was she counting on that for her victory? If she won she'd actually take it as a sign of something bad being about to happen and she should run for it? I couldn't say. What I could say though was that I had no bad…

Jiraiya had to admit, the amount of seal work that had to go in to making one of those lightsabers was impressive. Possibly one of the most impressive things in a whole play rife with jutsu. Particularly since he was pretty sure the damn things couldn't cut anything at all and would just give someone some toasty skin if it touched them. The various seals placed around the tent that produced sound on command were also rather inspired. Genjutsu was generally separated into two categories. The most useful…

"I have to make a bet with a sucker." Orochitama stated, squaring her shoulders before leaving the room with purpose. Kabuto watched her go and then, after a few minutes, let out a shaky sigh or relief. That interaction had been terrifying, but also informative. It confirmed that the profile he had been building was correct. Orochitama had been avoiding some actions due to a subconscious desire to avoid emotionally complex situations. Assuming that said vulnerability was not just displayed for his…

Sarutobi felt the ache in his soul as he walked towards his meeting. Every step felt as a small eternity as he tried to keep a kind face and a generous word. It was very hard, sometimes, to continue to act kind and doting at times like these. "Come on! I really really wanna go! Can't we? It's literally right outside. We should go! I heard they had great food and there are these neat shows going on!" Konohamaru asked. Again. "We can go after we've made sure that-" "I'm amazing though! I'm not gonna get…

Jirobo thought that the current plan was absolutely brilliant. Best mission he'd ever managed to get on in his entire life. They didn't have to be sneaky, they didn't have to risk their lives, they were being paid, and most of all the perks. "I'm sorry. It's what?" The Konoha ninja asked. "Fun Nel Cake." He stated as he dusted the golden flakey crust with some powdered sugar like the first pure snow on a grateful land. The aroma made his mouth water and he was already eyeing the portion he had already…

Momochi Zabuza hadn't expected himself to think deeply about teamwork again. He'd pretty much pissed off everyone back home and the life of a missing nin rarely allowed for someone to build up enough trust with someone to have anything resembling proper teamwork. Yet here he was, watching a bunch of wet-behind-the-ears gennin train and having to contemplate the best way to structure them for the upcoming exams. "The brats giving you that much trouble?" A voice called behind him and he resisted the…

I checked the heart monitor again. The pulse was still steady and the rest of the readable vitals were the same as when I'd last checked them. Everything remained frustratingly the same. That is to say, on a slow and steady decline. "The last batch of tests has had no observable effect." Kabuto stated. I assume it was for Kimimaro's benefit since I was staring at the test results. "I am unafraid." The bone user said as he looked at me with complete faith. Faith was the correct word too, because I was…
