3 Jutsu: [Action]

[Action: Incredibly early in the morning.]

[It was still dark outside and Nagato already knew he wouldn't be able to go back to sleep. That dream had been... He'd woken up like this more than once since his memories had been interfered with, it's true, but he hadn't remembered why.

He hadn't remembered the dreams. Now, he was somewhat mortified, very confused, and extremely concerned if this was some kind of revenge from his Sensei from beyond the grave. Given the man's later works and his philosophies where women were concerned he wouldn't exactly be surprised but...

But that still didn't make it any less strange, or embarrassing, or confusing, given that he'd never had dreams like this in his life.

Though, to be fair, he hadn't exactly been healthy enough for that to be the case. Not that he realized that this, more than a determined ghost of Jiraiya, was the cause of his disturbance.

No, instead he just dressed, and went hunting outside for somewhere to train to try to get his mind off of it, and to try to... calm his nerves.]


[Action: Later that morning, before noon.]

[Getting his mind off it hadn't worked. No, instead, if anything, he'd picked at his thoughts mercilessly because he'd given himself time to think about it instead of keeping himself occupied with something intellectual.

Not the wisest plan he'd ever had. In the end though, he didn't know what else to do, but he needed to know if this was... incredibly abnormal, and the medics he'd worked with were still back in Ame so...

Clinic.

He'd just... go in there... and apparently stand incredibly awkwardly just inside the doorway trying to decide if he should ask to see someone about... this.

He had no idea why he thought this was a good one.]

[He was a grown man and she was having to discuss puberty and sexual urges to him. Why was there never a hole in the ground when she needed it?]

N-nagato-san, I remember that you were married to Konan-san, yes? P-perhaps now that your health is well...[She coughs politely into her hand.] Perhaps all of you is well now.

[That hole was so late. Perhaps she should burn some incense to the hole gods so they would respond better next time. Yep, she'd do that after this conversation ended... if it ended...]

...Perhaps it should have, but that is not always the case in these situations. Illness can sometimes play a part in hormonal suppression. When the body and mind are weary, hormones are sometimes the first thing that fall to the wayside. However, when the body is well again, and you are put in a situation that...um, stimulates you... it will awaken to those urges again.

Shall I join you? I can program a scenario into the Battle Dome.

[She can keep an eye on him just in case, but if he really is flushed from just waking up... A thought occurs to her. Maybe he had some sort of embarrassing dream, like finding himself in only his underwear in a room full of people. Perhaps it's just some latent stresses or something of that nature.

In which case some time in the Battle Dome may do him some good.

That would be best. I should probably put away my laundry before we go, too.

[She's not self-conscious about it, but she does prefer not to be a slob and leave chores undone.]

Shall I meet you in half an hour, then?
twinlionfists: (I love you)

[personal profile] twinlionfists 2013-09-30 07:16 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes, that certainly can happen, Nagato-san. And, sometimes, I can depend upon what the stimulation is as well.

[Konan leaves the room with her laundry, unaware that it's been an unintentional cause of embarrassment. She puts away her clothing, folding and hanging it neatly, and even has a small snack before they head out.

Half an hour later, she's waiting for Nagato in the hallway.

[Hm. Well, his features look much closer to normal. Maybe it was some sort of dream that caused his cheeks to flush that way, or maybe he'd woken up in such a way that all the blood rushed to his cheeks.]

Yes. I had something to eat, too.

[Konan can't help but notice the way he's looking at her. Perhaps she's just imagining things and there's some leftover bias from the memories of their former life. Part of her wants some of that old physical affection they had like that. Another part feels like it would be a betrayal to Yahiko's memory, even knowing that he'd want them to live on and be happy.

She settles simply for offering her hand out for Nagato to take.

Let's go.

[There's some comfort in this simple touch. It's something that could be a gesture between people romantically involved or between two people who are simply very close friends. Because regardless of whatever complications there might be at the moment, they're still extremely close.]

Reasonably often. Sometimes I practice in the forest or the mountains instead, but the Battle Dome has the advantage of being able to program in just about any sort of foe and terrain.

[There's one particular foe she programs in with about the same frequency that she programs in the Third Party's cultists, this time factoring in reality warping potential. If he shows up here, she can't afford to fail.]

[personal profile] origami_ninja 2013-10-07 01:03 am (UTC)(link)
It's always a good idea to study the movements of the Third Party cultists. They're the ones most likely to kill the people in this enclosure. The Malnosso may treat everyone as experiments, but it's the Third Party who is openly hostile.

[She'd mention the other option, but...that would entail telling him that she'd died. She's not ready to tell anyone yet.]
twinlionfists: (flushed)

(Sorry about how long it took me and for the typo!)

[personal profile] twinlionfists 2013-10-07 04:38 pm (UTC)(link)
I was merely saying that perhaps the time spent "married" to Konan-san was the trigger to your physical...reawakening, as it were.

[She's right there with you blushing for all she's worth. Her hair might be dark, but her skin was just as pale as yours.]

It...it can be, yes.
twinlionfists: (embarrassed)

Shhhhh, TYPO. She likes blonds!

[personal profile] twinlionfists 2013-10-08 02:33 pm (UTC)(link)
[Back to wishing for that hole, yep. Why did she have to be the one to answer these questions? It would have been better if Luke-san or even Mizuno-san had been there to handle this. However, she was now stuck with answering this question, despite the fact that her face was the same color as Nagato's hair.]

I-I cannot answer that for you. It is something that you will have to discover yourself. Sexual...attraction sometimes means that you simply find the other person attractive. Other than that, you are on your own sadly.
origami_ninja: (calm resolve)

[personal profile] origami_ninja 2013-10-08 07:26 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes.

[She nods.]

The ones who attacked people later on.
