Mahogany Town is pretty great all around, don't you think? [ Just a couple weeks ago, she was back in New Bark Town and she's made it this far? ] I guess it's an unfair advantage knowing people who can use Fly and get you from place to place pretty quick. No complaints here though!

[ It might have been difficult to tell where she was had she not announced it. There's aluminium bleachers stacked up behind her and she's picked up a new shirt with longer sleeves. Not that she'll need it for much longer as spring is approaching, but it's nice to wear at a skating rink. ]

There's a couple people I know who have been here for a long time, like, long enough to actually grow here? What happens when they return to our world? Wouldn't someone back home notice the changes? [ Of course they would, everyone in Konoha has an astute memory and something being off physically is a red flag that something's up. A red flag that can't be ignored easily. ] It's a concern because a few of my comrades have returned home after living in this world long enough to change physically so I'm concerned about their fate.

Doesn't it change our future? Wouldn't I remember something since I'm ahead of them in the timeline?

This topic must come up a lot here when people get sent home, but I've wondered it myself since... well, I left? [ But she didn't return home. This is something she's not interested in making public information however, so she just frowns in favor of an explanation. ]

Oh, I think Naruto's finally got his skates on. Time to see what's so fun about sliding around on ice--but hey, will you leave me your answers? Just a little should be enough to give me peace of mind.

NOTE | Sakura will reply to all messages a few hours after she's done trying to distract her teammate~

[ He's just saying that because holding her hand is better than holding some teacher's hand, huh!! Not that she suspects that because Naruto is SO OVER his crush on her RIGHT??? ]

Not so quick-! [ Managing to keep up with his pace, she does loosen her grip if he gets a bit out of her range. No need to accidentally yank him back. ] This will hopefully help you back home too.

At least, um, I like to think it does. That's weird, isn't it?

[Yeah O B V I O U S L Y he is...]

[He slows down a little once again though, so they can skate side by side.]

I don't know if it does or not. I guess it must, though? I mean if we go back, who knows. Maybe if we don't remember being here, our body still remembers things like iceskating? Do you think?

[ If she can get over Sasuke (if this can be called 'getting over him' in any way) due to the age gap, he can get over her due to her fake confession. YEAH!!! ]

That's what I think.

Your body will instinctively move your legs the right way and who knows, you might not fall flat on your face back home due to your practice here. I, I like to think that's how it is.

It might not be, but it's better than believing our experiences here are a complete waste.

[Continuing to skate beside her, it's a moment before he speaks up again.]

Dunno when we'll get the chance to go skating back in Konoha though.. [Or when they'll get the chance to even go back to konoha, currently.]

[ Skating in a bit closer to his side because of the topic. She's not wholly aware of what she's doing, but her voice lowers. ]

I mean not just that... You'd be better at walking on water through your experience by ice skating--but I guess there's really not much water nearby in the war either, huh?

punches

I didn't see any. [where they are fighting kinda fits war though,right? It's empty and dry and hard and barren, at least it is now that a giant group of ninja have wrecked it.

But this isn't the time to talk about it, they're meant to be having fun, so he puts it aside and attempts to cheer her up (and himself).]

But you know, you're probably right, heh. So this is like training, yeah?!

21st-Apr-2014 08:39 pm (UTC)

[ It's okay, someone will restore it to a valley full of foliage and flowers soon enough. That's usually what happens, right? ]

Yeah, it's like training!

[ Nothing cheers the nerd up more than training when they're supposed to be having fun, then again, training is fun for her so it all works out. ]

punches

24th-Apr-2014 12:13 am (UTC)

[Training just makes him all that more determined. But how about a bet to make it a little more fun.? Now that he's got the hang of it, he begins to let go of her.]

Hey, first person to make it to the other end has to buy lunch!

believeit

25th-Apr-2014 06:01 am (UTC)

Is that so?

[ His confidence only causes her to start skating ahead herself. ] All right, I guess I've got to win this.

[ Her wallet can't take paying for Naruto's appetite. ]

punches

25th-Apr-2014 07:04 am (UTC)

Try it! [All talk here, as soon as she gets ahead of him he has to scramble and TRY to get ahead, though it doesn't work out so well.]

believeit

25th-Apr-2014 10:10 am (UTC)

Don't fall-!

[ Just calls that over her shoulder and doesn't bother to look back.

If she does, the GUILT will set in and then she would have to let him win. Can't be having none of that. ]

punches

28th-Apr-2014 02:58 am (UTC)

[He manages to speed up and goes for trying to win instead of keeping his balance- meaning that he only half a second behind her at most before he goes slamming into the barrier at the other side, though he still loses.]

...I guess it was a draw huh. [He can TRY..]

believeit

2nd-May-2014 05:58 am (UTC)

That wasn't a draw. [ ARE YOU TRYING TO PULL ONE OVER ON HER NARUTO??? ]

You were really, really behind!

punches

3rd-May-2014 03:51 am (UTC)

Are you sure?! I'm pretty sure we tied!

[Welp he tried ahaha. Though it's not so bad. He lets out a long sigh.]

I guess that means I'm buying lunch for you huh?

It'll be like that date you owe me.

[ Except it's not a date, it's just LIKE a date. Friendzoned 5ever. ]

punches

8th-May-2014 03:57 am (UTC)

D-date?

[Does she want to go on a date with him? He's already determining now that lunch will be a date.]

Just tell me when you want to go, yeah?

believeit

8th-May-2014 12:03 pm (UTC)

[ No, he doesn't get it whatsoever. She said it's LIKE A DATE!!!! NARUTO READ BETWEEN THE LINES. ]

We can go once we're done freezing our butts off from falling on the ice.

punches

10th-May-2014 05:13 am (UTC)

Okay!! Hehe.

[He pushes himself off of the edge, slowly skating off around the rink.]
