 * RL|- When Mushiki laughed a part of him did become worried in what he had said but the next moment and how the light refracted off of her face and her overall appearance made him quickly forget what his shoddy thought process was ticking over, instead he’d come to notice her bright smile and their eyes met once again. She spoke of how she really did come to see if he was ok and she mentioned how this was what she normally wore. That surprised Ranta really it did, for a shinobi to be this formal. No scratch that, for a shinobi to be this majestic but fiercely lady-like was amazing, nearly incomprehensible for the inexperienced boy. He missed the whole portion about the gift because he was so tied into his own thoughts, though when she re-adjusted her body posture and spoke about it being a pleasure to be here and enjoy this scene he finally spoke again. “Anytime really, I’m just glad to have you here. Sorry if that came out weird.” In reality, we know nothing was weird about that at all but his mind was hyper active and causing him to gutter mouth whatever his head is thinking which could be destructive. So, he breathed in deeply and exhaled deeply a singular time. This slowing releasing all of the tension/pressure that was oh so building up for Ranta.

Upon the mentioning of the six months it had gone noticeably more quiet and this caused him to gaze over at her quickly and then back out to the view ahead, she began to speak again. It was hard, both of them could share that simple sentiment in common very much so. Keeping memories close, making ourselves stronger for the better, not forgiving so history can no longer repeat itself. All of what she spoke was like a resonating drum of connectivity. He was glad she understood, even without him saying it outwardly. His eyes wandered back over to her again, noticing her nice long hair which caused him to simply smile and then he turned his eyes back to the open air again. Until he himself was asked how his six months went, he could feel her eyes on him but he just continued to blankly look forward.

'''“I wasn’t awake for 3 week of them, I’m sure you weren’t given the details but to make a long story short. When we finally got to our mission Objective we encountered their possible base of operations. I was afraid of following down towards the monster’s voice with no other possible exits, so I forsake the Hokage’s daughter and blew the building to kingdom come. It wasn’t necessarily because I was a coward, it was because I didn’t want my Team, MY GENIN to die for her. But even after our best efforts the man appeared from below ground and engaged us in combat, I poisoned him with my puppets to a large degree but he had Jinchuirki level chakra and four arms. Also, a fan that could manipulate three different elemental natures. After extended combat he nearly snapped my spine into two halves.” '''

He grit his teeth and stopped speaking for a good two minutes, at this point Mushiki could interject physically or with her words. Depending on either or he’d continue to speak.

'''“I’m lucky to be alive, I thought it was all over for me. I didn’t even know if I saved my Team or If I had failed. It was like being in purgatory. Then when I finally woke up and was briefed, I was so glad but in the same respect I felt like a failure. I wasn’t strong enough, even if the odds weren’t fair I wasn’t strong enough. Now that I once again have life I won’t allow it to happen again.”''' Even through the immense pain someone Ranta found more inner strength a true testament to his soul. - |RL|
