Kaede laughed, and she laughed surprisingly hard for someone who just coughed up a fairly substantial amount of blood.  Natsumi was able to certainly bring a smile to her face (not that she wasn't prone to that anyway).<br/><br/>"Ah... not so much anymore; my experience is liquor isn't good when you're coughing up blood," she explained, moving over to Natsumi and putting an arm around her shoulders. "Again: new skirt, then someone who can make sure I'm not bleeding too bad internally.  After... how about something yummy, then a massage later?  You know, a quieter evening?  You look like you'd prefer that, hm?"<br/><br/>Kaede also figured if she promised to 'behave' then there would be less a chance of Natsumi's superiors coming to speak to her about the clusterfuck of a holy ground or whatever it was that the other woman destroyed.  Chance someone would need<em>somebody</em>to blame after all...<br/><br/>"Oh, and no, not mad about that; the Stoners did that to both of us, way I see it," she responded as she gave the woman's shoulder a squeeze. "So put on a smile and try and enjoy the rest of our time together; I promise to behave better 'til I leave."<br/><br/>Of course, what she didn't say is that she didn't expect anything less really; she was a shinobi of another village, if Kumo were not the dangerous powerhouse towards them... well... Kaede wasn't terribly stupid after all, just chakra-impaired.
