Looking

[painted_seals]

You're kind of fickle aren't you, Mun? [He smiles.] Wanting castmates is an irrational reason to look for a home, especially when you never cared about them before. You shouldn't base these decisions on foolish desires like 'nostalgia'. [He keeps on smiling.] It's sentimental stupidity.

I believe “impulsive” would be an accurate term to describe your mun, based on historical behavior.

Perhaps you haven’t realized that seeking allies would be a wise decision. Strategically, being without them can lead to detrimental outcomes.

[painted_seals]

Impulsive is an accurate assessment, especially considering these plans have since been, how they say, "thrown out the window".

Gaara-sama, what missions do you believe spies undertake? Allies get you killed, you can only rely on yourself when you're undercover.

*just woke up* :O

[no_dreams_for_you]

[He smirks slightly.] An expected outcome. She must have agreed with your assessment, then.

I have completed reconnaissance missions before, Sai. With reliable allies. However, you are correct in that the majority of those missions require sole independence. Simply not all of them.

You may assume the role of "lone canon warrior" - if you wish.

............ Wow. : |

[painted_seals]

My mun and I have never required canon-mates. It is a rarity to be placed in a home with them. This is no different.

...shut up i went to sleep at like 4AM >:|

[no_dreams_for_you]

By choice. [He inputs.] If you are well-suited in your current establishment, then you're not required to relocate.

Your point? Don't give me your excuses. :/

[painted_seals]

Exactly. [He smiles, a well-practiced one.]

whatever u.u

[no_dreams_for_you]

[Head tilt, looking almost amused.] You still need additional practice.

*pats*

[painted_seals]

[The smile never falters, though it strains just a tiny bit.]

You think so? Perhaps if you demonstrated what it should look like, I could better refine my own.

[no_dreams_for_you]

[That, he notices too. Getting better at this!

Still bad at social interaction, despite that. Sigh.]

I don't smile frequently. [Short pause.] I don't believe emotions are considered to be tangible...

[painted_seals]

I can wait.

[He looks at him.] Only the blind believe that.

[no_dreams_for_you]

[He just smirks again.] It would be a frivolous waste of your efforts.

Really. [He quirks a brow.] It is something that you experience.

[painted_seals]

Why would it be a waste?

It's fact.

[no_dreams_for_you]

You can devote that time to training, instead.

Rather bold of you to make that assumption, considering your own stance on the matter.

[painted_seals]

I can do both.

It's not an assumption Gaara-sama. Even children know it instinctively.

[no_dreams_for_you]

......

[He looks disbelieving of that.]

I was ordered to discard them, during early training. Therefore, it was intentional not to focus on their existence.

[painted_seals]

And you believe a ROOT nin was not given similar orders? [That smile returns.]

[no_dreams_for_you]

Of course. You, of all shinobi, should understand the difficulty of retaining that knowledge.

[painted_seals]

Is that why you don't focus on them? Because it's difficult? I didn't realize you were so impotent, Kazekage-sama.

rofl Sai don't make laugh too hard to tag

[no_dreams_for_you]

I was speaking in the past tense. You should pay closer attention.

Unless you share the same opinion as Naruto, in that developing social ties is a simple task.

What! He's not even talking about your junk this time!

[painted_seals]

It's not a simple task at all. It's irrational and holds no logical course to follow.

LAY OFF HIS JUNK ALREADY also last tag before i head out! /o/

[no_dreams_for_you]

Nevertheless, a worthwhile endeavor to pursue. You can gather a great deal of information, simply from observing your teammates.

This is Sai. It's like asking him to stop painting. Not going to happen. : |

[painted_seals]

My teammates smile's are false like mine.

[It's a testament to how much he's grown for him to even realize the smiles Sakura and Naruto displayed were all forced. They smiled at him to pretend everything was okay, to hide the fact that they were deep in sorrow over their ex-teammate's continuously detrimental decisions.]
