...is that a...dinosaur???

Serves that bastard right for running away when I told him to wait. Now he's gone and got himself stuck in that freaky prison! And I'm in no fit state to go after him...

What happened to me, anyway? Something to do with the Sage of Sixth paths getting sick...? I don't really get it. But if Sasuke doesn't know what's going on either...

Guess I have no choice but to leave it up to him.

[retsuden]

I'm there willingly. I can handle a simple prison if it means finding answers.

[ SIMPLE. DINOSAUR PRISONS ARE SIMPLE. ]

[daddobeyo]

What's simple about a killer dinosaur?! You should've went with someone! How are you going to escape by yourself? Kill the killer dinosaur? He's kind of cool. I wonder if he likes toads...

[retsuden]

I could just use a genjutsu and paralyze it. It seems rude to get rid of their most efficient form of security.

[creationrebirth]

How did that work for you?

[retsuden]

[ WOW. He came here to have a good time... ]

It turned out fine.

[creationrebirth]

Thanks to whooooo?

[retsuden]

... An annoying doctor.

[creationrebirth]

Sasuke-kun!

[ Look, she just wants to be useful, don't take this moment from her. ]

An annoying doctor who saved your life...more than once.

[retsuden]

I think it's fair to say I returned the favor.

[creationrebirth]

You always do. In the meantime, I think you need to take the dinosaur a little more serious.

[retsuden]

... Fine.

[creationrebirth]

You say so much in one word.

[daddobeyo]

You heard that guy about that mist, what if a genjutsu doesn't work on him? ...her? Whatever. You just don't want to kill it 'cause you want to get closer to that guy in charge. He kind of reminds me of my cousin.

[ He's got Karin's hair anyway. And he wears glasses. And he smiles like a creep. ]

[retsuden]

[ You know what!! He had no back up plan if a genjutsu doesn't work, so he's going to do what he does best and ignore that. ]

I don't want to kill it until I know there isn't something important in its existence in this place. Anything could be a link to answers. [ A beat. ] ... You're not wrong about Zansul.

[daddobeyo]

[ Great plan, that always works out. ]

You mean other than being a guard dog? I guess, but if it comes down to it, you should do what you need to do to get yourself out of there, you hear? ...wait are they related??? AM I RELATED???????

[retsuden]

Tch. I won't let myself die.

[ More importantly, he hadn't thought about this whole Karin/Zansul possibility until Naruto brought it up and he HATES IT, THANKS. ]

It could just be a coincidence.

[daddobeyo]

That's not up to you alone, you know!

[ By that logic, Naruto's letting himself die by sitting around while everybody else looks for answers for him....... YOU'RE WELCOME. But Naruto doesn't exactly like that possibility either. ]

They look alike though, don't they?

[retsuden]

I just mean I'll kill it if I have to. Don't worry.

[ Says the dude who is worrying so hard that he's in a dino prison. Don't @ him. ]

Mm. Too alike. It's... [ CREEPY. SUPER CREEPY. ]

[daddobeyo]

It's my job to worry about everybody in the village, and that includes you. I know you don't like to kill if you don't have to.

[ Please, he LIVES to @ Sasuke. ]

Just a coincidence, like you said. Probably. There can't be that many Uzumakis I didn't know about!

[ He will be PISSED. Why did they never send a BIRTHDAY CARD. ]

[retsuden]

I'm not usually in the village.

One would think. But maybe they're scattered enough that none of you know about the others.

[creationrebirth]

Neither of you know what's going on and that's why I have to get involved.

[daddobeyo]

I'm causing trouble for everybody, heh. So you're running off on me too, huh.

[creationrebirth]

It's a little too important for me to stay behind and wait for answers this time. I think Sasuke-kun could use the help. We want you better sooner rather than later, after all!

[daddobeyo]

Yeah, I wanted him to go with someone but that bastard always runs off on his own... I'd feel better if you went with him. I'd go with you but I'd just get in the way like this... And it looks like you guys will have enough problems without me.

[ WITHOUT ME. He does not like being left behind. ]

[creationrebirth]

I know you hate to sit things like this out, but you'd better get used to now that you're the Hokage. You know you can't be running around after everything. Especially when you're sick.

I bet you never took into consideration that being Hokage would mostly mean sitting behind a desk!

i forget people's nicknames fff

[daddobeyo]

Heh. I know, I know, the next generation needs to do the running around now. Shikamaru's always going on about that. I can stand back because I believe in them, but I'm still going to jump in when they need me! That's why I've got to get better.

You know, when I think about it, I usually only saw Granny Tsunade and Master Kakashi in the Hokage's office... But the paperwork, Sakura, the paperwork...! They never had mountains of it like I do!

[creationrebirth]

And you will get better, you just have to find a way to not make it worse by running into the battle as well.

Well, first of all, they are better at organization than you. But, secondly, there are a lot more people living in Konoha now.

[daddobeyo]

You really think so? Seems like it's getting worse even with me staying behind and taking it easy.

Hey, I have a system! I guess I can't complain about the village growing, even if it does mean more paperwork for me to fill out...
