[A very disgruntled looking blond is sat somewhere on the ground, topless as a set of bright orange wings begin to flex behind him. After a few moments of glaring at it, a very simple message is broadcast across the journals:]

Where am I, and why do I have wings?

[...]

AND WHO THE HELL UNDRESSED ME?!

[If his first words to her when they see each other are 'you look weird' she'd punch the stripes right off his face.

So. Good call, Naruto.]

Haha, well, I thought I'd change things up a bit!

... It's good to see you, Naruto.

[believeit]

I almost didn't recognize you! But it's...good! [How do compliment girls?]

Hehe, I bet it's been a while for you, huh? Hey, we should go and get some food together! [Shikamaru told him about the store where you can just pick up whatever you want.]

[medicalpunch]

[Yes that is the best store. Shopping with no budget needed! You can bet Sakura's made good use of it.]

Good, huh? Well, I'll take that. At least you don't think I'm a stranger!

Ha, now that you're here, they've probably stocked up on ramen just so you'll be taken care of. [Either that or there will never be any because the Malnosso are jerks like that.] I could use some lunch!

[believeit]

Of course I'm gonna remember who you are. [C'mon it's not like you're Shino.]

D'ya really think they have!? [Hey maybe those Mal-whatever guys aren't so bad after all!Probably going to be devestated if they don't have any though.]

Then it's decided! Let's go eat lunch together, Sa~kura-chan!

[medicalpunch]

[No one wants to be Shino.]

I don't know! Maybe, they're good at making things pop up like that. Kankuro showed up, and bits of his puppets did at the same time, so maybe the same will hold true. You never know!

[Hearing him lilt her voice in that familiar, cheerful rhythm lifts her heart; Naruto sounds so cheerful, in a way that he hasn't in far too long, by her estimation.]

[believeit]

[Not even Shino wants to be Shino.]

Kankuro...? Oh! That guy. [Yeah doesn't really give a damn if he got puppet bits, he's more concerned about ramen tbh. But it does remind him of something else...]

What about clothes? Those guys stole all my stuff, I can't walk around just looking like this!

[medicalpunch]

[Hey, be nice. Kankuro's kind of the reason she survived against Sasori, after all.]

Sure you can, at least as far as the clothing shop. At least it's not winter anymore! [She's still pissed about that, by the way. Thanks, Malnosso.]

[believeit]

[Poor Sakura. He's thankful for that, at least.]

Yeah yeah, but will they have something there like the clothes I normally wear? Why did they take it off anyway, bunch of perverts!

[medicalpunch]

Well, they weren't going to stick wings on you through a jacket!

[Although really, she agrees with him. Bunch of perverts, stripping people like that!]

Usually they'll have something of yours ready. But if they don't, I'm sure we can find something orange that'll fit you!

[believeit]

[Oh yeah, the wings! Excuse him a sec going to try and look behind him to get a proper look at them... though ending up just going around in a full circle kind of like a dog trying to catch its own tail]

What's with these things anyway? One of the others said you can't even do anything with them. If I have to cut holes in all of my clothes just for these stupid things I'm gonna be mad!

[medicalpunch]

[Okay, that was really kind of funny, and she can't help giggling at him as he spins in a circle.]

Apparently they're pretty important to your health, so don't hurt them. I've done some checking and they seemed to be tapped pretty deeply into our chakra systems, so keep that in mind.

[And she turns to show him her back; no holes, just a bit of bulginess where her wings are folded tightly against her back under her shirt.]

They fold up pretty well, though, once you get used to the feeling. It's a little cramped, that's all.

[believeit]

[Peering at her back now- well I guess that works too.]

Why do we have wings that we can't use but are gonna be a pain if we do anything to them. I don't get it. [HUFF.]

[medicalpunch]

Neither do I. But it's through them that you'll understand other people here, and apparently there's some kind of native magic that you can use because of them. I haven't looked into it yet, though.

[But that's not really a good enough trade-off for having their bodies messed with like this.]

Mostly I just try to ignore them.

[believeit]

Dunno how you can ignore things like that.. [Naruto you are going to forget they are even there in like ten minutes time]

[medicalpunch]

It just takes a little practice, that's all!

[She smiles resignedly, flipping a hand at him.]

You'll see. It'll help when they stop being sore; they start to feel normal pretty quickly.

[believeit]

[Grumble grumble, lousy wings. He doesnt seem too bothered by it though.]

Sooo.. what have you been doing in this place anyway?

[medicalpunch]

Not really much of anything, actually... a little medical work when it's needed, a bit of training...

[believeit]

So we can go eat together then hang out! We haven't done that in ages!

[It's been.. way too long since any of them had been able to have a normal lazy day, at least as far as he's concerned.]

[medicalpunch]

No, we haven't.

[And there's so much riding in those words; here, Naruto's been gone since before she came, and at home... at home, there's too much war and heartbreak for something like 'hanging out' to have been a consideration for ages.

It'll feel good to be normal again, with her teammate.]

I think it's a plan!

[believeit]

Then it's a date!

[Ha..haha..]

[medicalpunch]

[He never gives up. Never.

But she wants to see him smile. There've been too few of those recently, from when she's from, and she doesn't expect many more in the near future once she returns to the battlefield.

Enjoy them for now.

So she offers Naruto a smile that's mixed warmth and amused resignation.]

Sure. It's a date.

[believeit]

[YES. They are so going on a date!]

WAIT you said yes?!

[That actually worked??!]

[medicalpunch]

[Okay now she can't help laughing a little at his disbelief. Naruto's a whole lot of things, good and bad, but it's never a dull moment with him, that's for sure.]

I did! Crazy world, isn't it?

[And he doesn't even have to worry about money, everything's free here. He can show her a good time.]

[believeit]

[And he still isn't entirely convinced that this isn't some sort of elaborate dream or genjutsu so.. he's just going to go with it.]

Sakura-chan's going on a date with me to a place where I don't even need to pay for food, now I know this has got to be a dream!

[medicalpunch]

[And now she's just laughing outright -- not mocking, but he's just being really cute right now. Resisting the urge to pinch his cheek...]

I'm afraid it won't be the best dream, though. There's no Ichiraku's here. [And she's not letting him feed her cup ramen!]
