Closed to Obito

[sekihan]

[It has taken a good few months for her shame and embarrassment to ebb, since she woke up the day after she parted ways with 'Iori' and noticed that she had messaged somebody on her scroll. But she shall dawdle no more!]

Dear Obito-sama,

I humbly apologize for the...less than poised demeanor I displayed in my last missive to you.

Please, forgive my impertinence.

Repentantly yours,

Kuzuryu Ashiko

[The letter was a surprise, but he didn't let that stop him, instead simply replying, thoughtful.]

Ashiko-san,

There is no need for apology. I assure you that your previous messages were highly enlightening and will be something I never forget.

Uchiha Obito

[sekihan]

Obito-sama,

If that was intended as a reassurance, I am pained to inform you that it fell somewhat short. I count my blessings you were the only witness to my mortifying lapse in eloquence.

Sincerely,

Kuzuryu Ashiko

[thebestuchiha]

Ashiko-san,

I might have felt the need to share your artwork with the relevant parties.

They thought it was cute.

Uchiha Obito

[sekihan]

[Oh no. Noooo. He didn't.

...ugh, how embarrassing. The pair probably saw the 'cute children' comment too.]

Obito-sama,












...that was vengeance for the flagrantly impertinent implications towards your age, I take it.

Sincerely,

Kuzuryu Ashiko

[thebestuchiha]

Ashiko-san,

I promise that there was more reason than that, but it was mild enough, wasn't it?

Do you even remember what you sent me?

Uchiha Obito

[sekihan]

Obito-sama,

I have incredibly messy drafts and what you sent me, so yes, essentially.

I thank you for your mercy.

Sincerely,

Kuzuryu Ashiko

[thebestuchiha]

Ashiko-san,

...

You had even messier drafts?

Uchiha Obito

[sekihan]

Obito-sama,

I don't think you quite grasp how potent the sake was in that tavern. I personally consider it a stroke of divine fortune and a credit to my teacher that I did not perish while learning how to swim.

Sincerely,

Kuzuryu Ashiko

[thebestuchiha]

Ashiko-san,

That sounds even more worrying, if that was possible.

Uchiha Obito

[sekihan]

Obito-sama,

To quote very nearly every person to ever over-indulge, 'it seemed like a good idea at the time.' But the important thing is that the evening ended without casualties.

Sincerely,

Kuzuryu Ashiko

[thebestuchiha]

Ashiko-san,

Reassuring to some degree, as casualties would be bad.

Uchiha Obito

[sekihan]

Obito-sama,

I agree. I do regret being so flippant about mentioning how we met, though.

Sincerely,

Kuzuryu Ashiko

[thebestuchiha]

Ashiko-san,

It wasn't exactly a flattering meeting for me. If anything it was one of the more facepalm meetings I've had.

Uchiha Obito

[sekihan]

Obito-sama,

If memory serves, it was a nearly flattening meeting for me.

Sincerely,

Kuzuryu Ashiko

[thebestuchiha]

Ashiko-san,

Hardly my fault that town built buildings with really bad roof support okay?

Uchiha Obito
