7th Punch | Video
[It's one of those things she feels like she ought to say. Ought to let people know, because it's important. They're important, even if they're not here anymore.
On the video, her expression is carefully calm, forced into composure -- but for those who know her well or who are very good at reading faces, it's obvious she's not at all calm about this, not really. They're too important to her for that, and Sasuke in particular... it feels like not enough time. Not enough to getting to savor having her team together again, whole again.]
For anyone wondering... Uzumaki Naruto and Uchiha Sasuke have both gone home.
[Once again, she's the bearer of bad news for Luceti's Konoha population. She takes a breath to say more, but then pauses. What else is there to say, really? And her throat is so tight with it. Her teammates, her boys, are gone -- but they're back where they belong.
It's not enough to ease the sense of loss, though.]

[Sakura's smile in response is shaky, but at least it's there.]
That's true... my whole team isn't gone. [Yet.]
Umm, Kushina-san... I hope this isn't presumptuous, but at some point, could we get dinner together or something? [She'd like to spend more time with her. Both because she really likes Kushina, and also because it might feel a little less like she's been abandoned.]

Sakura doesn't have anyone.]
Sure. [She smiles warmly. Sakura wasn't being rude at all.]
I'll send Minato off to spend time with Kakashi. He should spend more time with his student anyway.
[She's sure he must be feeling guilty too, even if it wasn't his fault. And she can't leave Minato alone either.]
Re: video
That's good. I think Kakashi-sensei could use the attention, too... [After all, this isn't the first time that Sasuke and Naruto have gone off and left the two of them behind. It hurts less than last time, at least.]
Maybe tomorrow evening?
Re: video
Mn. Did you want to come here? [Well, maybe not.]
Or we could go out somewhere. [Since being in the family house seems more empty.]
no subject
Either is fine...! I don't want to make you cook if you don't feel like it... [She certainly doesn't want to impose.]
no subject
I don't mind it. [She says it just a little subdued. If it's for someone like Sakura. Or Minato. Or Naruto...]
I'll leave it up to you, Sakura. [Since she's worried about Sakura's happiness rather than hers.]
no subject
Let's go out somewhere. [Get Kushina out of the house.] They'll have a Boys' Night and we'll have a Girls' Night.
no subject
Yeah, but ours will be a better night. [She hopes.] I can already see the two of them just talking about politics or having a strategy meeting like they used to.
