[ With Tenten's recent failure of her mission, Tenten self doubt started to slowly grow. Her focus diverted to dedicating as much time as humanly possible to becoming the best Meister ever for Santana, and, to be able to properly resist madness wavelengths. As such, she's been hitting the gym. A lot.

The feed clicks on to show the brief interface of a treadmill. The time spent signals steadily increase. So far, she's spent nearly two hours on it alone. She seems to be moving at 9.5 miles per hour. Her heavy breath gasps for air irregularly. She takes the feed and focuses on herself as she continues to train. She hangs the feed in a place that's more focused on her and less on the treadmill. ]


Good afternoon, Death City! And hello to all of you newcomers! My name is Tenten, and I run the weapon training at morning training with the actual weapons. Not the "I'm a person but I'm also a staff" type of weapon. If you're interested in sparring or honing your skills, drop by!

I wanted to ask the entire network a couple of questions. [ She wasn't quite sure how to phrase them that'll cast herself in a negative light. Hooray for neutral phrasing! ] The first is, what type of qualities to you seek out or find admirable in a Meister? If you're a Meister who wants to talk about what qualities you wish to have for your weapon, that's all right too. 

The second is one that should apply to everyone. What do you view failure as? An opportunity to grow? Something that's shameful that you'll never ever reveal? A lesson? How do you cope with failure? It's not that I failed [ Tenten: She's Tsundere over failure! ] I'm just curious about it since I heard that the missions suddenly became really really difficult over night. Stupid Kishin eggs getting stronger. Seriously, what's up with tha-

[ And then Tenten does something stupid. She stops moving. Immediately, the high speed treadmill flings her off the belt. She hollers loudly as she careens into a collection of punching bags causing them to eject at the impact and spread out around the gym. One of them rolls towards the feed as Tenten struggles to get up. ]

Fuck! I've had my teammates sent home, my foot chewed on by a damn Kishin egg, been lit on fire and robbed, grounded at the hospital watching everyone else enjoy themselves, failed a mission and now my partner's avoiding me, I've just been flung from a damn treadmill and it's still January. [ A brief impatient huff as Tenten strolls back to the treadmill. Her hand lingers over the feed as she turns it off with a very caustic remark. ] Happy 2010. Everyone just answer the questions, please. Ignore what just happened. [ SHE WILL MAINTAIN DIGNITY. ]

...Are you alright Tenten?

[He will answer your questions though]

I think a Meister needs to be someone that I can work well with and trust. That is what is most important.

I guess your second question depends on what type of failure it is. But if they can be fixed, I would work on that. If they cannot, I see no point in worrying over what has already happened.
ink_nin: (hmm perhaps)

..I would prefer a Meister whose background was similar to mine, at least with Military knowledge. I understand that is not a common thing here though and we cannot afford to be too fussy.

[Of course he is going to give you the worst answers Tenten] Well.. if you made a mistake which caused somebody to die, that would be something that you could never improve. Or if you died yourself, of course.

And i suppose anything else that resulted in a permanent, serious injury for somebody or resulted in a ruined relationship...?

[Its ok <3 i am super late too getting caught up on stuff D:]

I believe some people are capable of learning, even if they do not currently possess the knowledge.

[Its true- he fully believes that there are people here that may seem like ordinary civilians to them but could easily adapt to that military mindframe.]

Then it is fixable. All you can really do is talk to them and find a way to work around the problem, Tenten.
ink_nin: (smile)

I agree, as long as the person has he right personality or mindframe for it.

I am sure you will be more than able to work through your problems Tenten. [He smiles because he believes it is true]
ink_nin: (peace)

;D

[personal profile] ink_nin 2012-03-11 10:53 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm glad I could help, Tenten.

[He smiles, actually having NO IDEA IF HE HELPED, OR HOW.]

...Yes, I spoke to him on the day he arrived. Why?
ink_nin: (explaining)

[personal profile] ink_nin 2012-03-14 09:07 pm (UTC)(link)
To be honest I have no idea. When I spoke to him I didn't think it was right of me to mention anything about what happened with Sasuke, but he does know they were partnered.

To be honest I haven't really spoken to any of our group in a few days. You may know more than I do.
ink_nin: (blush thinking)

[personal profile] ink_nin 2012-03-15 10:36 pm (UTC)(link)
I know, but still I didn't really feel it was my place to say. you know I don't talk to Sasuke obviously and I haven't spoken to Naruto since he arrived back here so..

What do you think about it?
ink_nin: (D:)

[personal profile] ink_nin 2012-03-16 05:36 am (UTC)(link)
You know I agree with that Tenten, I just-

[He doesn't care about Sasuke, but he does about Naruto. And doing something to one tends to affect the other.]
ink_nin: (Default)

holy hell did i forget about this orz orz

[personal profile] ink_nin 2012-03-23 02:03 am (UTC)(link)
[Silence]

It's just..

I would be more than happy to tell Saralegui everything but the only reason I don't is because of the obvious tension that would cause between everyone.

You know how Naruto might act if I did that.
ink_nin: (explaining)

[personal profile] ink_nin 2012-03-24 10:08 pm (UTC)(link)
We were only partners for a couple of days, and we are not partners now. He doesn't even know me.

What would you do, in my situation?
ink_nin: (>_>...)

[personal profile] ink_nin 2012-03-26 06:55 am (UTC)(link)
Er- I don't think they are, no.

[Hrm. Maybe he will tell him, then. Or at least tell Naruto to tell him. Or let tenten!]

Why do I have to do it?
ink_nin: (Hand staring :|)

[personal profile] ink_nin 2012-03-26 08:12 pm (UTC)(link)
How about I just agree to telling him if the subject ever comes up in conversation again.
ink_nin: (fake smile)

[personal profile] ink_nin 2012-03-27 09:38 pm (UTC)(link)
And if he does, I shall give them to him. [Oh Tenten |D]

they do lol
