<strong>"And I won't tell you about Konoha-nin, to make it nice and even. I mean, honestly, none of our villages are at war anymore. How hard is it to be nice to each other and help each other out every now and then? Gosh."</strong>While her words were complaining, her tone was light and airy. Everything about the girl was screaming open and friendly at the moment, even if she had a particularly vicious-looking Fuuma folded on the back of her jacket and a . . startling amount of kunai holders all over the place. Well, that and faint scent of snake about her to those with enhanced scent like her Inuzuka teammate.<br/><br/>In positively no time at all Azuki had lead the way to a fairly 'girly' tea shop, filled with cutesy waitresses and an irritating amount of pink. Azuki's status a ninja was a bit more obvious with her choice of table she insisted on. Rather than a booth it was an actual table, with a wall mostly to Azuki's back but enough room to give her ducking-away space with a slight shift, and the window was in her line of sight. Really, it was the sort of stuff that ninja tended to do unconsciously after going through HELL TRAINING with her mother when she was younger.<br/><br/>She asked for some jasmine tea and (of course) mitarashi dango, letting Haitsuchi put in an order if he wished and waiting for the waitress to leave, before flashing a brilliant and disarming smile to the tall young man.<strong>"Have you seen it? There's a Suna puppeteer that apparently nobody has ever seen in person before, that rides around in a big puppet of all things! That's like, the opposite of normal puppeteer combat isn't it?"</strong>
