usogi | [ i already regret sasuke and senri ]

You're going to get the rest of us disqualified by being murdered.

[That is TOTALLY the reason. Absolutely. Senri is in the way even when being told not to be in thE WAY.]

[holy fuck

he can't even

keep a straight face]

..... is that so.

Okay, pitch me this explanation. [while sasuke does that,] Do you want rice balls again? I was thinking stir fry for dinner.

Because you keep talking to-- [A short pause; he says, "I guess," and then:] --everyone else without filter. You've lied once to me already.

If you keep trying to be friends with others, they're going to do something stupid on your behalf.

Worse, you'll do something stupid on theirs.

I didn't lie to you about anything important, don't make me repeat myself. I don't gain anything by doing that.

[let him get that straight first even as he goes around the kitchen to get cooking supplies

that said he'll also look over his shoulder and grin]

How's that 'worse', ninja-san? I thought you didn't care if I died, Sasuke-kun.

[his fucking switching between ways to address sasuke is absolutely just to make an incredibly annoying point]

[At first, Sasuke looks Shook(tm) about the formality being replaced, and then his eyes narrow in exasperation. If they could throw shurikens, they would be doing it for sure.]

I don't. I want to be spared from the whining and crying everyone else would do. And I don't want to be accused of a murder I didn't commit.

[senri is just grinning because of course he is]

I think you're overestimating how well-liked I am - not to give you a reason to actually think about killing me or anything. I'm not that worried that anyone would throw themselves on a sword for me - we're all here for our own reasons, after all.

[he's... weirdly aware that this is a competition at the end of the day, even though he wants to make friends? he looks through the meats selection]

Beef or chicken?

Shrimp.

[He blinks, pausing, seeming to realize that Senri is one hundred percent conning him into being normal. His face grows as our as usual.] Stop. I don't want anything. I'm not hungry. [THIS GUY IS SO FRUSTRATING.]

I'm not surprised you don't care. Shishimaru said you loved attention. Tch. [Finally, maybe he can get under Senri's skin instead.] That you... hated "being alone."

Shrimp?

[dude what the fuck. senri's pouting even as he looks for shrimp.... it's probably way in the back?? he has to dig for it but eventually manages to find some.....]

What were you saying -

[and then i'm so sorry that sasuke was trying to get under senri's skin because senri will just face him and]

Oh! Yeah.

I get lonely really easily.

[gOD, PLEASE HAVE SOME SHAME]

[God damMIT TO HELL. This is worse than Naruto, by far. Worse. Any insults or jabs he took at Naruto, the orange jumpsuit bastard would jump at to fight him back. Calling him scaredy cat so many times resulted in so much useless boistering.

But this.

Sasuke sighs loudly and heavily. His face is still bunched, and his brows are still together, but he won't look Senri in the face.]

I'm leaving.

[Get lonely really easy, huh.]

[sasuke picked the wrong insults honestly - and he's still not taka, who senri will dunk on for breathing

but ugh wtf. his expression falls pretty predictably]

Hey - that's not any fun.

[he aLREADY MADE THIS PARFAIT BY HIMSELF, SASUKE, HE'S DONE HIS TIME!!!!]

[Sasuke turns around almost like he's planning to just start walking away as he usually does, no goodbye, no nothing. Except he... just turns around and that's all. He doesn't leave, but he keeps his back in Senri's direction.

His arms cross, and he leans back against the edge of the counter.]

Have you spoken to Sincerity?

[what the fuck, sasuke should really stop giving senri what he wants.

because he's prickly when sasuke turns away - but also relaxes when he seems to be up for sticking around after all. whatever annoyed retort that was ready to fly seems to disappear and he goes back to getting ingredients for dinner.... he picks up tomatoes first, and then actually has to go check for a recipe of how he can put shrimp and tomato together,,]

Uh-huh. I've spoken to... half the gods now, I think?

And then I've been told about the other half.

Why?

[Sasuke's dark eyes skim the floor back and forth idly. The edge of his face seems thoughtful, if much too intense.]

What did she tell you about the world she wanted to create?

[why does sasuke keep pulling them back to bad conversation points when senri is trying to MAKE FOOD]

.... I have a question.

Are you going to try to kill every god you don't agree with? Or are you just trying to make sure the bad ones don't win?

Just answer my question. Don't worry about the reason why.

[because he's sasuke uchiha]

I don't believe in answering questions I don't trust. If this is an information game, why would I give information to someone when I might not like what they'll do with it?

I won't suspend that rule even for you, Sasuke-kun.

[Frowning, he glances back over a shoulder through the edges of his hair.]

Answer my question so I can compare your information to information I received from another source.

Not until I know what you'll do after...

You'd probably still dislike Indulgence the most out of all the gods. Is that enough?

[and he waves a hand]

Learn to negotiate better - I want to trust you, but you make it really hard.

[Negotiate better.

Sasuke looks back ahead, and he's quiet for a long time. Even in Team 7, it was hard for him to work together with others. Sakura got in the way. Naruto lagged behind, made stupid choices. Near the end, he did... so well, and then...

And then he was on his own again, not having to worry about it.

But didn't they defeat Kaguya by working together? A common goal... even if it was Naruto, even if it meant saving the village he just wanted to destroy.]

If you tell me, I'll cook instead.

[fuck

senri is a bitch who loves to be pampered]

.... are you any good?

You aren't in the position to make conditions. [Just as an aside.] I watched my brother cook when we were young. I learned when I was on my own after I left my village.

Are you taking it or leaving it?

[senri hummmmmms thoughtfully

and then he'll leave the ingredients he already pulled on the counter, then turn to sasuke]

I already started pulling the foods you like. But add making me dessert and you have a deal.

[why is he like this]

[Sure, if Senri wants the shittiest dessert possible because Sasuke hates sweets, so not only can he not make them, but he won't taste it either.]

Fine. Start talking.

[He'll exchange positions with Senri after rolling off the counter.]

[he's going to BITCH until sasuke makes it right

and then senri will pulls himself to sit on the counter a little ways away, legs swinging as he watches sasuke]

Sincerity wants a world where everything can be beautiful, and exciting. Where everyone can reach their full potential, and be as fabulous as they want to be. They're a peaceful god, and don't encourage the murder part of the game at all. But they're also fairly protective of their followers.

[and only after senri gives his description - ]

Whose information is mine getting compared to?

[Sasuke goes about this with as much integrity as he puts into, say, ninja work.

He unravels the belt at his waist and lets the robe fall away, which seems initially terrifying, but he has loose pants on beneath... thank god. (He looks so much better without the dumbass robe.) The rope belt he loops around his arms and across his shoulders to tie his sleeves fully back even if they're already not very long. The armbands are missing(?), weird.

For now, he leaves Senri's ingredients, and he instead begins digging through everything to see what's available. He pauses and stares distant, and it's a wonder he's heard anything Senri said when he looks so focused.

But then he begins making dessert, giving it time to set while the other food cooks. Hm. Something powdery white, sugar, something red and pasty he forms into balls. Cornstarch sprinkled on a pan, maybe for sticking.]

Have you ever thought about whether or not the gods aren't telling us the whole truth about what is required for their worlds?

[Is he ignoring the last question.... maybe...]
