[He slides across the floor like a worm so he can at least be in front of the camera again.]

I haven't even heard about most of this stuff! Are you sure we learnt it in the Academy?

[medicalpunch]

[Gosh, Naruto! You're making it really hard for her to keep a straight face here.]

Well, not in the Academy, no. This is the jounin test, Naruto! These are all things you should have learned since graduating. I mean, you haven't been a chuunin at all, but you spent all that time with Jiraiya-sama...

[Which is a tough topic, let's not linger there.]

Anyway, if a chuunin leads small groups, a jounin has to be ready to lead big ones! You've got to really know your stuff.

[believeit]

Well Ero-sennin taught me jutsu and how to fight, he never said anything about codes and rule numbers! I bet he didn't even know 'em anyway!

[This is no help argh.]

Do you know them?

[medicalpunch]

Hmm. Well, it's possible he kind of forgot about those. I mean, he wasn't really active for a long time, wasn't he? Just wandering around writing those filthy books...

[She pauses, considering how best to proceed, then grins wickedly.]

Of course I know them! Here-

[And she just starts rattling off things that she figures sound pretty good, filling them in to be the "five hundred fifty-five laws of defense." Most of it is just common-sense defensive techniques, but pad it all out with enough big words...

On the other hand, her poker face might be wearing a little thin. That's a real sparkle in her eyes right now...]

[believeit]

[He's listening but he doesn't get any of it. Cue the whining]

Sakura-chaaaaaaaaaan!

[medicalpunch]

[And that's when she breaks -- she just can't take it anymore, can't keep up the façade in the face of that whining despair. Time to dissolve into helpless giggling.]

Naruto, your face...!

[believeit]

What about my face?! [This isn't the time to be laughing Sakura, this is serious!!]

[medicalpunch]

[It's cute and dumb, that's what about your face.]

You... hahaha, you're falling for it... [And she's just covering her face now, laughing.]

[believeit]

[There's a few seconds of confused silence.

But then he gets it.]

THIS WAS ALL A JOKE WASN'T IT?!

[medicalpunch]

[She's laughing too hard to answer now, but she nods broadly. After a moment or two, she pulls herself together enough to ask,]

You got that all from Kakashi-sensei?

[believeit]

YOU WENT ALONG WITH IT!!

[He expects this shit from Kakashi but NOT YOU Sakura]

[medicalpunch]

It was too funny not to!

[Baby troll has taken her first few steps to a larger world of messing with people's heads.]

[believeit]

It's not funny!!

[medicalpunch]

Of course it is!
