[ VOICE ] ✿✿ [ March 27 ◦ Morning ]

[punches]

For those who knew of him, Naruto Uzumaki has returned to the--[ There's a pause here, almost as though she intended to say something like 'battle', but instead is cut short with a different word. ]--home. He's gone home.

[ It wasn't like Naruto to keep quiet, but Sakura held off for as long as she could before making the confirmation. So it was only right for her to share her findings with everyone else. First Hinata, then Naruto... how many others were going to return before she could? Maybe she should have held off on this information since today was Hanabi's birthday, but it was better to get it out over this than in person. At least for her. ]

I'm going to be busy today, but if anyone feels that they need to talk about it, I can make some time to be there for you. [ Satisfied with that, it cuts off. ]

There's no need to feel that way. [ Forcing on a more cheery tone. ] That sort of thing happens here all the time, doesn't it?

Just means I have to work hard to find someone else to team up with. [ And punch a lot. She needs a daily skull to crack. ]

[grab_my_bells]

I suppose. [Too often to his teammates, though.]

...Good luck with that.

[voice]

[punches]

It can't be that difficult, right? There's plenty of experienced fighters here. I just need to find someone battle ready and without a partner.

[ See, she can distract herself with this task. At least she sounds more hopeful with the prospect than she did with her original announcement. ]

Besides, he could just always show up at another time. Then I'd really get onto him for leaving us without saying goodbye.

[grab_my_bells]

And who you can resonate with.

[Kakashi, on the other hand, is all D= but he's glad Sakura can seem so happy.]

...I hope you get that chance.

[punches]

Yeah, that's the tricky part. There has to be someone on my level still available, yeah? I'll be back on my feet and involved in missions before you can notice my lack of attendance.

[ No need to worry him with her feelings. She'll be lucky if she can even find the energy to leave her bed at this rate. ]

I'll get the chance. Even if there's no one, I'll make it happen.
