An accidental muse...whoops. Probably no spoilers? Mostly voicetesting

[twobells]

Yo. [Yep, just sitting there all casual-like with a book.]

So nearly 630 chapters and you're finally getting around to making a journal. How many years has it been since you got into this story? And the kids think I'm late. What will you tell them?

You didn't have to pick me. There are a lot of others you could have gone with. And I do mean a lot. Still, you and I are here now so we might as well make the best of it while we can. Thanks for going through all the trouble even though we both know I probably won't go to one of these games.

It doesn't matter. You've got a lot on your schedule and I've got things to do too. There are always little old ladies to help across town. [Lies. :|]

[woodnin]

It seems like you've got your work cut out for you, Kakashi-senpai.

[medinin]

Aren't you borrowing excuses? Not that I think he was lying, back then.

I can't picture you being late to anything.

[twobells]

[Hm. Oh, it's you. Where'd you get off to?]

It does seem that way. [Can you sense his distress? No, probably not.]

What about you?

[twobells]

[!!!]

[Rin. He closes his book and tucks it away.]

I've come up with a few of my own. Not that I'm lying either.

It's not my fault if there's an overturned fruit cart on the way to meeting my students.

[medinin]

[ Good choice. ]

Which ones did you come up with on your own, then?

[ She's actually curious. Are they entertaining? ]

Konoha seems to have a lot of little old ladies in dire straits, you know.

[willtowin]

Is this really the time to be thinking about little old ladies Kakashi-sensei? [Her tone was dry, and she was leaning on a wall looking at you.]

[twobells]

[No need for Rin to see the title.]

There's been so many. I forget which are his.

[No he doesn't. How could he?]

It certainly does, never noticed it before.

[aflashoffaith]

You know Kakashi, I'd think a shinobi of your caliber would be able to come up with a more believable excuse.

[twobells]

[1 out of 3 found. Nope, not putting his book away for Sakura.]

Probably not but I don't think my mun will be letting me go anytime soon.

[medinin]

[ She'd have to say something, and no one wants that. ]

Really. [ That's not a question, although it's phrased like one. ] I guess I have the benefit of never having heard your excuses.

[ It's not a benefit, but...it works. ]

Perhaps you should start a little old lady protection society, Kakashi. I'm sure they'd thank you!

[ This is apparently the appropriate time and place for light teasing. ]

[twobells]

[!?! All these old faces coming out of the woodwork.]

[To put the book away or not...]

Sensei. I could have said that there's a war to fight but there's a lot of talk of that lately.

[aflashoffaith]

[surpriiiiiiise]

[You're a grown-ass man Kakashi, you're allowed to read porn.

Besides it was written by Sensei and he's only the best author ever so it's fine.]

Too much, maybe.

...You'll be late in seeing me again there, too.

[Honestly.]

[twobells]

[No, no they certainly don't.]

It might be best if you don't. My students get angry when I show up late anyway.

[The real reason he's late is never allowed to be said.]

When Naruto-kun becomes Hokage then I'll bring it to his attention.

[Teasing? He'll accept it with a smile.]

[aflashoffaith]

[pssst.

don't encourage him, Rin.]

[medinin]

[ Like she didn't encourage Obito, too, Sensei. ]

[twobells]

[How did he attract them all?]

[Yes but this is in front of Sensei.

There's a big difference between him and Kakashi's students.]

Can't be helped. [The war is pretty big right now.]

I'll come up with a good excuse for that, I'm sure.

[medinin]

Like you used to do? Well, as long as you're keeping them on their toes! I always thought you would make an interesting Sensei.

[ And that it would be good for him. Obito, too. But she's not mentioning that part. ]

So your student is the future Hokage? We seem to have known a lot of kages. I wonder if that says good things about us.

[willtowin]

[Only three sensei? You're failing to count Sai again aren't you?]

Really? Does she have anything specific in mind for you or have you just been caught?

[aflashoffaith]

[...he did too, he's really got no leg to stand on here.


do as I say not as I do?]

[itsjustdust]

People keep telling me about this, but I never really believe them. You're seriously stealing my reasons for being late?!

[medinin]

[ And when has that ever worked?

Besides, she was the least problematic child on that team. You know this to be true. ]

[twobells]

Things have changed, haven't they? I do my best with that and with teaching them.

[It has been good for him. And he keeps Obito alive in his teachings.]

Not yet but I'm certain he will be one day. I hope so.

[twobells]

[No, he's failing to count Sasuke.]

She doesn't have anything planned for me. I'm not sure she ever will, actually.

[aflashoffaith]

[We all want to see what his face looks like obv.]

[It's not really appropriate to read porn in front of Sensei's son either, at least Minato is a legal adult.]

No I guess not.

But I don't think an excuse will be necessary then.

[medinin]

Time does that to people. I'd like to meet your students someday.

[ Here, obviously. Not...elsewhere, for obvious reasons. She debates saying he's all grown up, but that would probably give way to who isn't, so she refrains. ]

If that boy is the son of Sensei and Kushina, I don't think there's any other end result!

[ She talks to people here. Sometimes. ]
