Azuki really did think she lucked out when it came to what Jounin she got. She heard some truly horrifying stories about certain other jounin, and while her specializations weren't really anything like Hyuuga Hanabi's, they managed to get along well for the most part. Plus, the young woman knew when to have a little fun and when to be proper and strict, which was a skill so many ninja lacked these days! The snake summoner had the same smoothie as Hanabi, reveling in the sweet taste.<br/><br/><strong>"So much fun! I'm getting a decent amount of information from all sorts of people . . . I could always use more though."</strong><br/><br/>She raised an eyebrow at Hanabi's mentioning her earlier 'diplomatic relations with kumogakure'. A grin quickly spread as Hanabi continued, taking on that sing-song tone and leaning in close. In reply, Azuki leaned in close herself, before giving the older woman a peck on her upper lip and a snake-fast slip of her tongue.<br/><br/><strong>"Mmm . . . banana mustache.~"</strong><br/><br/>Azuki's . . . 'overly affectionate mannerisms' were rather infamous in Konoha at this point.<strong>"Alas, our love is not to be. She is from the mountains, I am from the forests . . . I will not give up my attempts to promote international collaberation and improve diplomacy between our villages."</strong>She nodded sagely, before turning wide eyes Hanabi and holding her hands out a fair distance from her chest.<br/><br/><strong>"My god. For real. Wow. There are no words, Sensei. There are no words."</strong>
