Naruto jumped slightly when he heard Airi from behind him but quickly moved to help when she tossed him the key to her house. The smile that slid on to his face as he opened the door was a soft one that very few in the village had ever seen, as it was not lost on the young ninja how willing Airi was in trusting him. It reminded him a lot of Teuchi and Ayame.

Without being prompted Naruto assisted with putting the recently gotten goods away “Oh I was wondering if you could answer somethings for me and the snacks were awesome” he replied with his normal enthusiastic grin as he placed the eggs next to her so she could put them away.

“I was wondering if you knew why Kakashi-sensei is always down” The genin asked without any preamble as he kept putting things away “It’s only when you’ve been around that he feels normal, all the other times he sounds the same but it’s like something heavy is pushing down on him” he explained as best he could, but it was tricky to put in to words. “I was also wondering if I could borrow part of your garden so I could grow some herbs, everyone is telling me I need to eat better so I figured I could stare with smaller green things first.” He continued on not realizing just how bizarre it was that he was able to get a read on Kakashi at all.





Kakashi just nodded as he stepped inside the house and followed her in to the front room. He quietly inspected the various art pieces that were scattered here and there, and was rather impressed. He wasn’t much for the art it’s self but could easily tell the skill involved in each of the pieces. Some of the newer ones, if the smell was anything to go by, reminded him of Suna and he wondered if they explained the sandy scent that was lurking in the background.

He pulled his attention back to Ana as she started to explain why Airi had agreed to the marriage, he muttering not going unnoticed by the skilled ninja. Afterwards Kakashi sat there with a look of confusion on his face as tried to fit everything together. He understood all the individual parts that were being told to him, the parent’s weird requirement, the desire to help family, the frankly terrible luck of who. It was just when it was all put together it didn’t make as much sense to the silver haired man.

“That does answer my question, thank you.” He said after a moment of processing what was told to him “I have another question, if you don’t mind, and I apologize if this comes off as rude but why not go out and date people despite your parents?” It was the only other question that he couldn’t wrap his head around. Maybe it was to do with having parents? Or maybe it was a civilian thing, Kakashi was honestly not sure. Raised in a ninja house hold and then orphaned at a young age due to suicide and bad luck meant that he was unaware about how the ‘normal’ world worked.

So the portal is open, who all has plans on walking through it?
Decided against taking control of Ana for the moment as it would end up being a wall of text that would leave much room for you to contribute. so rather then have it just be the Kakashi show, I had Naruto swing over to Airi in a unintentional mimicry of his nosy Jonin. the kid has questions, the difference is that I don't think that Airi will have the answers.
The moment that Ana opened the door Kakashi picked up on some of the fresher scents that were in the house. There was a hint of soap that was floating about the house and it also came from Ana that told him she had taken a bath recently. The bread she had was fresh, made within a day or so he would guess. Put that together with Airi’s scent that was, both detectable both on the porch where he was and, wafting from inside made him think that he had arrived just after his friend had left.

Then there were the heaver scents of paint and sand, the paint was old and somewhat baked in to the house. ’So she was successful at becoming a painter’ was the thought that came from that smell, but he couldn’t place why the sand. He had a few guesses, she had taken a trip recently or had a delivery brought from wind but there just wasn’t enough for him to be able to say for sure from just the smell.

“Hello, can I help you?”

“Hi, you must be Ana. I’m a friend of Airi’s, she doesn’t know I’m here and I was wondering if you could help me understand something” Kakashi replied with abashed sincerity, half of which was just an act. He was sincere about wanting the help, but he was by no means embarrassed by his snooping, most people were just more willing to help someone who looked as if they were.

“Why did she agree to marry Guy?” he asked letting his honest confusion be plainly apparent in his voice.




Unknown to Kakashi, or the rest of team seven, one of his students had decided to take a break from his normal after missions routine. There was a few questions that had been bugging the kid for a while now, and he figured that he might as well try and get them answered alongside the questions that had popped up today.

He went straight home after being dismissed by Kakashi-sensei, and made himself a small snack to go along with the treat he had received from Airi earlier. It wasn’t the same as his normal after mission meal but he didn’t want to spend too much time at his favorite restaurant today as he would miss out on being able to ask his question, or at least that was the young boy’s thoughts on the matter. Afterwards he switched out his normal black shirt for a simple white long sleeved one and just tied his jacket around his waist; he watered his plants and then set off.

His destination was oddly enough where he had come from earlier in the day Delicious Delights. He had a few questions, and a request for Airi, and he was reasonably sure she would actually listen to him unlike most of the other civilians in the village.

Eventually the blond ninja found himself at the back door of Delicious Delights, he chose the back door for two reasons, first was it meant less people glaring at him while he waited for someone to answer and two his request had to do with the garden.

Taking a calming breath Naruto knocked on the back door and waited and hopped. He figured that Airi was a good person like Iruka-sensei or Jiji as she didn’t feel prickly as most of the village did, but it was always good to be on the safe side.
@FamishedPants Don't tell me what to do, I'll do things all day long if I want too.
True, but currently the only information that has been given points in Justine's direction. Penny could just as easily give Beacon information about Mint, besides Penny is already considered guilty by virtue of being a monster girl.
@Flamelord Penny made a deal for information with the mint, not to betray the Beacon, She is more likely to betray them rather then the other way around.

To your general point, this is a very good point. Have you considered joining the dark side? We have a variety of flavors from psychotic anti love crazies to wanton destruction waifus.
@Flamelord I think Penny would still be allied with Beacon after such a unification. Do you think we should bake cookies?

"What if this isn't the end of something, but just the beginning?


Well Penny was already invited to the castle siege, so you better believe she is going to want in on that, not sure if we have time to build an army considering it sounded like the final ritual sacrifice is close at hand already. That being said, Plans have been approved to help out with that siege, I'm just waiting to see who all is going down to check the wreckage before I put them in to motion.
