Ninja shenanigans

[pinupninja]

[ there are very few fights where Kasuga has found herself backed - no, slammed into a corner, and she's loath to admit it, but without Sasuke, she can't confidently say she would still be alive.

But she is, and he is, and although their opponent still lives, he's doing so at a safe distance-- far enough for Kasuga to dazedly drag herself up against a nearby tree and fumble for her medical kit. Sasuke-- she'd lost sight of him, and she leans back against the trunk with a ragged breath before she turns her head to see if she can spot him now. ]

[ thankfully, this one should end with no injuries and higher spirits. Shingen will be proud. ]

[ And Yukimura can finally calm down.

But Sasuke meant what he said- though he's going to start out simply. Leaving her a flower every once and a while, or doing her some small favor. Little things to show that he does care, but things that don't interfere with their work.

Wouldn't want her thinking he thinks that she's weak again, after all. ]

[ the flowers go unseen by the majority of Kai's soldiers, quietly pressed and tucked away inside of her room. True to her word, Kasuga is far from easy to woo; she still snaps at Sasuke, still grumbles, but she can't fend off what aren't quite advances, and it forces her to realize how much care he's taking with her.

So maybe she starts seeking him out more these days, just to talk, to plan for the next mission, to scold him when necessary. ]
