intraspective: (huh?)

In Front of the Dorms, Friday Mid-Morning

After class Ino wandered outside to sit on the lawn, and settled down to try and think of a way to write to her dad and tell him she really didn't want him to come for Parents Weekend. Sure, she wanted him to find out about the Yondaime but... other things? Not so much.

Judging from the tone of his letters Ino doubted she'd have much luck. Maybe she'd get lucky and he'd be sent out on a mission?

She also kept getting distracted by the group of wee knights who were plotting to take over the steps. At least, that's what she guessed they were planning from the amount of arm waving and pointing that was going on.

[Open!]

Kabuto smiled, looking innocent. "Threw what?"

"Huh. I wonder why someone would do that..." Kabuto frowned slightly, looking at the burnt patch of ground. "You don't have any enemies, do you?"

Kabuto let her; the better to keep up the innocent pretense. "Oof! That's not very nice. What did I ever do to you?"

"No, I came from my room," Kabuto said. Which was a blatant lie.

If he let her land a hit every now and again, there was a better chance of her underestimating him. Nothing wrong with that.

"I don't have them pre-made," Kabuto replied with a shrug. "And they're never anything terribly dangerous. I have a feeling if I tried to do anything really big, it wouldn't work." He grinned. "But I don't want to blow up the school. That's been done before."

"Yeah. Aliens blew it up at graduation." Kabuto was completely unfazed by this, by now.

"I didn't hear the full story, but it was apparently quite an event." Kabuto peered down at the mini-knights. "...I wonder how they burn..."

"...So?" Kabuto asked, blinking at her. "Why does that matter?"

"I won't learn how they react to things, otherwise," Kabuto explained, as if talking to the very dim.

"It's better when they're alive," Kabuto continued. "It gives a better perspective on what's truly going on." He smiled, tilting his head to the side. "It's good practice, keeping them from dying."

"Don't worry," Kabuto told her, chuckling. "I can't do that here. Only at home." He patted her head condescendingly. "I have much more free reign at home."

"A medic who understands bodies inside and out, in all forms of disrepair." Creepily enough, he had very good reasons for what he did. "I've learned things I wouldn't know otherwise; ways to repair damages faster and with less scarring. It makes me better." Kabuto was very serious, not trying to make himself sound more intimidating. He was just telling it as he - genuinely - believed it.

"No. They're good practice, though." Kabuto shrugged, ignoring Ino's nervousness. "There are significant differences in a body that's still functioning as opposed to one that has stopped."
