My dad met one, didn't he? [ That much is thoughtful. Naruto gives a little shrug. ] Hah. They're people. I guess that doesn't help much. Sousuke is really smart, pretty smooth most of the time, he understands things. Me. He's really strong. Ichigo was really strong too but he wasn't like Sousuke in other ways. See? People.

No. ...it was more like people would pay and I'd entertain. [ HOW TO PUT THIS DELICATELY. ] Kinda like a prostitute. Except not.

I see. I suppose even gods are people in their own right.

[ Neither his expression nor his voice changes. Not one bit. But on the inside? Might be a different story. ]

You were a prostitute. How did this come to be?

[willoffire]

Sure they are! Why not? Sousuke likes tofu and he doesn't like eggs, see?

No. I said kinda like a prostit-- I was never a damn- ... [ A little testy on this score. ] Long story. Got screwed over by someone calling themselves The Tradesman. Madara was there y'know. Or that guy pretending to be him.

I didn't know there were eggs in the afterlife.

[ He falls silent for a moment, thoughtful. ]

One day, Naruto, you and I will have much to discuss. Beginning with this Tradesman, and Madara... But we needn't talk about such unpleasant things now.
