Description My half an art trade with .

I've never drawn ShinoTen before, and the art gods...seem to ironically approve o_o. But my sister said if not NejiTen it would be NejiLee (in that order) so....sorry Shino. I'm still going to have to invent someone for you.

My thought process went something like "ShinoTen huh?...What would they do as a couple?...................................................walks. I think they'd both like walks."

Hope you like it . I'm quite impressed with myself actually.

Aws, cute! Personally if I had to pick someone else for TenTen to be with, my next two choices would've been Kankurou and Kiba (in that order and separately, of course). But this is well-done (not like steak, like good art ) Background is cute and they're just so happy!

I don't think I can ship this... One of my pairings for Shino is KibaShino (in that order, again What can I say, Kiba accepts him as weird as he is )

I agree with Neji;if they were being any more intimate, it would probably bother me (nearly put "bug" and decided it was inappropriate ) Well done, as always, Reggie

Glad you can enjoy it, at least.

Not a ship I would join either, but it's cute enough in it's own way.

Ha, I knew it! I don't know how I knew you shipped that, but I did .

Always

Yes, but TenTen would completely de-masculinize poor Shino, and she wouldn't try to either!

Because I'm getting ridiculously predictable, I suppose I'll have to do something random and stick it on my page. Shock to you all to pieces

But I like all my pieces where they are.

*feels like a traitor*

I just faved a pic that does not have NejiTen...but TenTen with someone else....

And that someone is SHINO!

This is a really great picture! I think what really made it was the fact that they look like they are so happy, and they are just holding hands. I mean if it were any more intimate I probably wouldn't have liked it much, but who knows lol.

Shino approves of this pairing. You can tell.

I do think Shino and TenTen would be cute, but...NejiTen is DESTINY!

Great job on this again, I really like the background too.

I really like this picture. And right after NejiTen I like this Tenten pairing best. Just something about Shino makes me think he and Tenten would get along well. Great job on their expressions and hands. Also the shading and background is very well done! I like how much taller Shino is than Tenten to. Don't know why.

ode2sokka In reply to innocent-rebel [2009-10-22 02:49:37 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, I think it's slid into second on my list. Which used to be NaruTen, actually .

Heh, Shino is so tall anyway, it amused me rather. Glad you like it .

LeeTen is still third. It's hard for me, though, because they're so much brother and sister in my head

innocent-rebel In reply to ode2sokka [2009-10-22 15:07:05 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, after reading your stuff and everything I've kinda started to see LeeTen as one of those close friendships that could be confused as romantic love between the two, but it's more just deep friendship. I think Lee having a crush on Tenten early on is very plausable, but I think that's all it really would be. Just a cute little kid crush that we all get. I remember one of my best guy friends I wanted to marry in elementary school. XD

ode2sokka In reply to innocent-rebel [2009-10-22 15:15:35 +0000 UTC]

I totally agree with that. She's one of his few friends, and at first it would be a cute crush, but after he told her and she was like " D: But-but..." they'd go back to being just friends .

innocent-rebel In reply to ode2sokka [2009-10-22 15:29:06 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, especially with how deeply Lee loves and how he really didn't have that many friends as a kid. He could confuse friendship for something more. Poor Tenten though. She doesn't like him like that. It's awesome they can go back to being friends though. A lot of times that's even better than romantic love. ^_^

ode2sokka In reply to innocent-rebel [2009-10-22 18:20:06 +0000 UTC]

Yes, exactly. But, eventually, he would understand, and then thoroughly enjoy picking on his 'sister' .

Family Fluff > Friend Fluff > Romantic fluff.

At least in my world view.

Konoha never knew what hit them. That's for sure! The sad thing is, if Yori was still herself I bet she'd love to meet Guy's team. Probably get a kick out of how they run him around like he and his team used to her.

She would enjoy it. Which is so sad T_T.

Guy loves his kids, but they drive him nuts. Particularly when Lee is a mood to rile TenTen up, because no one can push her buttons like he can .

I don't even know Yori that well and I really like her. Just feel bad for her. *hugs her*

LOL! Lee knows exactly what buttons to push, when to push and how many he can get away with pushing at the exact same time! Which of course leads to her freaking out, Neji getting in the middle to try and save Lee's life and Guy has to pull her off of both of them before he has two dead bodies and a lot of explaining to do. Poor man. He probably has a collection of stress balls.

She's really just a good person and sensei. Strict when she had to be to keep her students alive in a war, but usually just a kind and caring individual. Poor thing doesn't deserve the fate I gave her.

Probably what Kakashi gets him every year for his birthday, a different kind of stress ball .

Poor Yori. And yet...I think her fate adds so much to Guy's past. Because she's there...but it's like she's dead because she's not who she was.

I could see that!

Exactly. And it's more painful because of it, I think. Kaori and Junichi he can mourn. What do you do with someone stuck in limbo?

Makes me laugh. Makes me laugh more that Guy would really use them.

There's really nothing you can do. You can't hold on to tight because then it only hurts worse, but you can't let go either because then that's like just abandoning them.

He would! Guy would be the only one to ever have broken a stress ball!

ode2sokka In reply to innocent-rebel [2009-10-22 19:08:01 +0000 UTC]

*hugs him* I really want to draw him seeing her in the pysch ward. Even if it's sad...just to draw it.

Bwahahahaha! I could see Neji saying that. And that's when Tenten gets Guy another stress ball and lee goes off on how cool that is that Guy blew that up like he did!

ode2sokka In reply to innocent-rebel [2009-10-22 19:14:15 +0000 UTC]

It's therapeutic, somehow.

Those two may cause more messes, but they know how to get themselves out again too. And if they can't, they know their sensei will. And Neji stands back, shakes his head, and has learned to duck.

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

innocent-rebel In reply to ode2sokka [2009-10-22 19:27:36 +0000 UTC]

It really is. I feel so bad for Guy to because he's still there and senseis seem to become like a parent almost to their teams. So in a way...it might have been like loosing his mom.

Neji: it's fetile position time! *Drops down into ball to avoid rampaging teammates*
Guy has probably had to pull them out of more situations than he can count. I can just see him having Lee flung over his shoulder and carrying Tenten under his arm like a board as he walks away from some sort of destruction.

ode2sokka In reply to innocent-rebel [2009-10-22 20:15:43 +0000 UTC]

Probably was. He was pretty young when his parents died.

LOL! And then Neji would be tagging along behind going "I TOLD them it was a bad idea, sensei, but they didn't list to ME."

That's so sad!! How old do you think he was when that happened?

Neji gets to look like the boy scout, but he secretly enjoyed their pranks just as much as they did! hehehe. Guy is probably just muttering under his breath and nodding and trying to keep his sanity.

I thought he was eight, myself. No reason just...did.

It's true . It's his own way of getting attention- getting to be the one that tells. He's like Hanabi that way .

Poor Guy. He didn't realize how much WORK teams were.

innocent-rebel In reply to ode2sokka [2009-10-22 20:43:38 +0000 UTC]

Dang that is young. I always thought he might be a bit older, like twelve or something, but that's just me. And with the wars going on...I could see him loosing his parents at a younger age. Poor kid.

I love it!! Neji's a tattle tale! But considering the kind of trouble Tenten and Lee get into that's not always a bad thing. Like if either got their hands on explosives, I think telling would be the best thing. O_O I can't even imagine how terrified he must have been when Tenten got to start practicing with paper bombs.

He didn't!! It's a labor of love. And the headache medicine people love it cause jounin with teams probably buy that stuff by the truckload.

ode2sokka In reply to innocent-rebel [2009-10-22 20:48:07 +0000 UTC]

That was sort of my thought. That war had been going on for a while, and I'll bet most of the kids around his age are orphans. Thus, Kaori's goal.

I was just thinking that! She probably got her hands on some explosive tags for some trouble, and fell in love with the noise and pretty fire. She'd start practicing as soon as she got out of the hospital for the first time .


No doubt. Whoever decided that giving hyper active twelve-year-olds sharp weapons was a good thing was crazy.

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

innocent-rebel In reply to ode2sokka [2009-10-22 20:53:50 +0000 UTC]

And Guy is doing everything he can to carry that goal out! Because in a way, his team are orphans of war. Neji's dad was killed to stop one from happening, Tenten's parents are so consumed with drugs and alcohol so she's like an orphan as well because of the abuse, and Lee...even if he has his mom, he's kind of like the kid that everyone else forgot. So he's an orphan of war in that he was forgotten. Plus I'm convinced his dad left. Don't know why, or if this makes sense, but yeah.

LOL!!! She probably loved the fire and was all, must play!!! I bet she did start practicing like crazy after she got out of the hospital. Probably scared Guy to death!

Or a genuis. I would have loved that many weapons as a kid!

ode2sokka In reply to innocent-rebel [2009-10-22 20:58:14 +0000 UTC]

They really are. They certainly are orphans, and all three of them forgotten. They're all unwanted, and until Guy nobody cares about them at all. Which is why I think they're all so close. All they have is each other, and when that's all you've got to lose you'll keep it as safe as you can.

I'm sure it did the first time, but he'd probably given up talking her out of it after the first few days.

I was much to fussy. I would have been scared of the other kids getting hurt .

innocent-rebel In reply to ode2sokka [2009-10-22 21:03:25 +0000 UTC]

I agree. They really only have each other at this point and they can't bear to even think about loosing a part of it. Plus they're all so different and have such strong personalities that they probably aren't close to many other people.

lol. I can see Guy just padding the walls and stuff and setting fire extingisher out just all nonchalant.

Aw that's ok. I was the kid who just had enough common sense not to jump off a roof. XD

ode2sokka In reply to innocent-rebel [2009-10-22 21:06:00 +0000 UTC]

I think most everyone is afraid of them. They're so...intense, that to those outside it's probably scary. And it would be hard to get close to them when they're already so close.

Sometimes, you just gotta roll with it.

I always had to look after my sister. Part of my very mothering personality I think. I probably would have followed you everywhere, totting my first aid kit in a bottle along behind.

innocent-rebel In reply to ode2sokka [2009-10-22 21:15:42 +0000 UTC]

Yeah! I mean, Lee comes up to Sakura after two seconds and is like: I LOVE YOU!" and when Neji finds Lee in the forest of death and he looked at the guy's that did it he was like: I KILL YOU! And when Tenten was helping Lee regain consciousness she was all: WAKE UP IDIOT!!! *shakes*

True. Sometimes it's just impossible to fight it. If he stops Tenten from playing with explosives...well she'll do it somewhere else where it's not as safe.

That's really sweet you did that. ^_^ lol. I would have given you lots of use for it I think. I was always climbing trees, running around and I've fallen off of more swings while in the air than a four year old. XD

ode2sokka In reply to innocent-rebel [2009-10-22 21:20:02 +0000 UTC]

I wouldn't exactly try and make friends with them either. They're so loud and just generally crazy, it would be really unsettling. Another reason they all get along so well, I think. Incredibly strong personalities that have more or less raised themselves, with Guy having only recently taken over.

Yep. Best to just allow it to happen where he can supervise.

I was an excellent mini-first aider. I've known basic first aid since I was six. Fastest band-aid unwrapper on the block .

innocent-rebel In reply to ode2sokka [2009-10-22 21:24:27 +0000 UTC]

I think I would, but I'd probably be really confused and not understand what was going on if I tried!! Neji would probably annoy me to at first. hehe. Yeah and with Guy's personality it's like he's there to guide them more than tell them exactly what to do and how to think.

For some reason I could see him making her wear a helmet.

*salutes* Thank goodness for band-aid unwrapping speedsters!! We need more of those in the world.

ode2sokka In reply to innocent-rebel [2009-10-22 21:31:09 +0000 UTC]

That's true. He's painfully aware that, as much as acts like it, he is NOT their parent or legal guardian, he has no right to punish him, and the best he can do is offer advice and just try and be there while they work it out for themselves.

That amuses me. Her pouty face would be so cute.

I still carry a complete mini first aid kit in a bottle . Mostly for me, though. Current example: My family went shooting last week, and I hit myself in the head with the gun.

Very true. Stupid legalities. Though I think he does have certain rights to punish them because he's their sensei. He can't ground them or anything, but he can do a few things.

Awwww. It would be!! And Panda would get goggles and get to watch!

It didn't actually hurt. I just forgot to lock my elbows and managed to get hit by the butt of it with the kick back. Barely bruised.

Something like that. Or decide who can go on a missions and stuff.

Ever seen the movie Rocket Boys? There's a scene in that movie that so reminds me of what would happen. The boys basically set up an experiment outside on one of their mom's brand new fence, and then seconds before it goes off realize they should be behind something.

That's good!! I like guns but they also make me nervous as heck. I prefer throwing knives.

True! Maybe that's why he smacks Lee. It's quick, it's simple, it gets the kids attention and once it's over it's over. HUGS!!!!

Dude I totally could! The whole movie is a Team Guy movie. Just the underdogs kicking butt and doing what no one thought they could. Plus it's got so many funny parts and explosions.

My grandpa was going to teach me, but when we went up to the ranch he watches for his brother we found it'd been broken into. *growls at whoever did that*

I'm trying to figure out how that'll be explained to Tenten in the story I'm working on. Actually I think that might just be the reason it's going so slow...O_O...but...I think I just got an idea on how to do it!!!!!

I liked it a lot more than I thought I would!

Yeah. I swear if I ever get my hands on them there's going to be a smackdown like none other! I mean that's where my grandpa grew up!! His parents built that ranch and some punk breaks in and steals something that was apparently in the family for over a hundred years. Sure it was just a farm tool but that's not the point! Plus it still worked!
