Kotoha probably would have spent a little longer being stunned if Kankuro hadn't just as obviously been taken aback. There's a slight pause as she processes what could have caused that to happen - the dress, while nice, was unlikely to...oh. Wait.

This is the first time he's seen her in anything that shows cleavage.

Internally, she's grinning, but she manages to keep it off her face as she glides over to the ninja and his lioness, dropping into a curtsey as she reaches him, providing a nearly overhead view of her cleavage.

"Well, you certainly clean up nicely. I almost didn't recognize you without all that makeup on."

This is gonna be fun.

[bunraku]

Inwardly he was already groaning at her attempts, knowing full well that that full view of her cleavage was to get him to stare and drool. Even if he, inwardly, was already doing such. He was male, what could he do to change that?

Covering up the hint of pink dusting his cheeks he turns his attention to Joruri who merely stares back at him with a curious look on her face.

"Yeah, well, it's not often that I go without the paint. When you look so much like your goddamned father, you do what you can to fix that." Especially when the guy was a right bastard, but that was neither here nor there for the most part.

"Or if you look like every other shinobi in the village, need to be able to tell the corpse from the others."

Aaaaand that probably just killed the mood. Good job.

[unbroken_chain]

...wow. Wow.

Kotoha's going to just spend a few moments staring at Kankuro.

"You're terrible at flirting, you know that?"

[bunraku]

And he's going to sputter at her words, immediately going on the defensive.

"'m not trying to flirt with anyone!" He snaps, already blushing a deep crimson red as he looks away from her, huffing in response.

Or, well, he just hasn't the foggiest how to do this whole flirting thing anyway. It's not like he was the diplomatic one in the family and he certainly wasn't the one all the girls were going after.

[unbroken_chain]

"I was, though. Man, you're worse at this than my last girlfriend."

A slight pause, accompanied by the sounds of her skirt rustling.

"Anyway, come on and dance with me, will you?"

[bunraku]

Wait, back up. She was flirting with him?

Blinking at her a few times he takes a deep breath, managing a slightly nervous smile before gently reaching for her hand. He's not good at dancing, but he can certainly try, it wasn't a necessary thing for him to learn.

"Flirtin' with me? Now why the hell would you do that?" He questioned, voice trying to use jokes to hide the nervousness there instead.

[unbroken_chain]

Kotoha shoots him a sly grin.

"Well, now that I know what you look like under all your manly warpaint, you've made the leap from 'good friend' to 'boyfriend material'."

[bunraku]

Boyfriend material? This girl is ridiculously blunt the longer he hangs around her and he's not entirely sure if that's a good or bad thing.

"Temari would kill ya for that, you know," he mutters under his breath, knowing full well that pretty much every girl would have to go under her scrutiny back home. But he wasn't at home so this was... well, he was allowed to date being his age, wasn't he?

[unbroken_chain]

"Unless Temari is the man-eating dragon god of ice and snow or the physical incarnation of humanity's negative desires, I can cope."

Kotoha pauses for a moment before continuing.

"Fun party game: guess which of those two is an actual Pokemon!"

She'll just keep the dance going while you figure it out, Kankuro.

[bunraku]

"More like older sister that can and will beat the living shit out of someone for looking at her the wrong way." And who is overbearingly protective of him since she took on the mom role, but that's an entirely different story.

He pauses for but a moment at the party game, frowning at her soon after. "What if I don't want to play it?"

How he's managing to not step all over her toes is anyone's guess.

[unbroken_chain]

Hmm. Older sister. She can deal!

"Well, I guess I'll just have to tell you, then. It's the first one."

As for her toes, well...it probably looks a little weird, but Kotoha is the one leading here.

[bunraku]

If only she knew how much of a dragon she really was. But her loss.

"Somehow I'm not all together surprised," he returns, quite happily letting her lead since hell if he knows what he's even doing.

"You have any siblings?"

[unbroken_chain]

"Closest I've got is Hugh, and he's just a childhood friend."
