"Oh!" Yuki chuckled a little too loudly, now feeling utterly at ease.  "I...no.  Makoto got stuck in her puppet yesterday.  It was a lesson that I, too, need to be wary of situations where I might become snared."<br/><br/>He bowed his head. "No.  If someone had tied me up, I would not fear telling you.  My failures may shame me, but each is merely a lesson to grow stronger."<br/><br/>That was not to say he always faced failure with the most grace.  Maki had seen him rage and scream and cry before, but, he had gotten much older since he had started.  He had learned since the start that never giving up was the best technique and bloodline he could have received.  With the real bloodline of the Hyuuga, Determination Unending, he could conquer anything!<br/><br/>...except the hearts of women, but that was probably a matter to talk over with his psychologist rather than his Jounin.<br/><br/>"You have seen the worst I have done and the best I have done.  I have nothing to hide from you," he said with a smile, sure that he would never run the risk of ever having to reveal his sexual fantasies, at least.
