テマリ

Hurricane

テマリ

Wind

The wind she controlled did her calling—so when she asked for it to snap Shikamaru's arm she was surprised when it refused.

Easy

"I'm okay, you frail human. Pfft. Do you really think that an S-class criminal could bring Subaku no Temari down?"

Control

Even if she didn't know it, she had Shikamaru wrapped around her little finger.

Star

The more the stars she shows in battle on her fan, the more dangerous it is. The more stars come out in the sky, the more harder it is to not take her then and there.

Underestimate

When the Sound shinobi underestimated her they died painfully. Of course, they did hurt Kankuro…

Games

"Damn you Nara! Just watch! One day—don't give me that smirk!—I'm going to beat your ass in Shougi good!"

Never

Never, in thousands of years, did he think he would fall for such a troublesome women.

Rock

She enjoyed the painfully loud music he called trash.

Pfft

"I want marry a regular girl who isn't too ugly or too pretty. Have two children, first a girl, then a boy. Retire after my daughter is married and my son becomes a successful ninja, and spend the rest of my life playing shogi. Then die of old age before my wife."

"But Shikamaru…I'm gorgeous."

Suna

Suna with it's scorching sun and terrible memories made her want to forget the pain Gaara felt because of their parents. Suna with its cold nights and smiling villagers made her want to remember better times.

Konoha

Once upon a time, she wouldn't hesitate to leave Sunagakure. But then, Gaara was a demon and Kankuro weak.

Kazekage

She held her tongue when Gaara told her he was going to become the Kazekage, because it was what he was determined to do. But really she wanted to demand why and ask if he wanted to turn out like their bastard of a father.

Father

When she met Shikamaru's dad she asked herself why she got stuck with a man who hated their youngest.

Mother

She didn't remember much of their mother, but when she did she remembered warm hugs and sloppy kisses.

Badass

Despite her badass attitude, Shikamaru (and her brother, for that matter) found it amusing bugs scared her to hiding.

Fear

Her fear of losing held her back, until she began to fear Gaara and refused to stop training.

Phobia

When she met the team of genin on her team, and the girl had anemophobia (fear of wind), she whispered it was okay, and she'd never let it hurt her.

Lose

She refused to lose. Because nothing could stop her. Not poison, not the weapons hurling at her. Nothing. Nothing would stop her from getting to her little boy.

Strategy

Shikamaru's strategy of getting the girl! by INO~

1) compliment her 2) take her out on a romantic date 3) rescue her!
she'd scoff. yeah right. she can rescue
me.

Death

When he asked about her father, her eyes turned angry and she said it was good he was dead.

Snow

The first time they went to the snow, Temari turned misty-eyed and whispered how her mother loved it.

Hourglass

Instead of a watch, she used a small hourglass. When he asked her why, she simply sighed and said it reminded her of the new Suna.

Tan

When she got a tan, and her eyes were even clearer, he cursed his bad luck.

Ino

She became jealous of Ino's time with the frail human, and blushed when Ino teased her about it.

Yoshina

Temari decided she liked Shikamaru's mother. Shikaku and Shikamaru did not like the new arrangement.

Wedding Dress

When she found the perfect wedding dress, in her sense, both Ino and Sakura got her out of the store as fast as they could. Black, ripped mesh, and leather were not on the list.

Shikaku

She seemed to amuse her (future, before they even knew of it) father-in-law greatly, thus resulting in her new position as "Shikamaru's wife," much to his son's embarrassment.

Shukaku

If you hurt my brother, you'll be surprised how I can hurt you.

Ambassador

Being the ambassador meant she would be able to visit often. Damnit.

Lipgloss

On her birthday, when she wore lipgloss and her hair free, Shikamaru tried to strangle her friends more than three times.

Poison

The poison in her bloodstream was slowly killing her, and when Shikamaru found out he dragged Haruno Sakura to Sand, half-killing themselves on the way.

Siblings

"You're my little brothers, twerps. Little brothers exist so older, more mature, sisters can make their life miserable."

Teal

Teal clothes, teal fruit, teal curtains, teal candles—yeah! Thanks Konoha, making her eyes everywhere.

Velvet

The velvet apron (how much money did it cost?) made him blush as red as the cloth itself. Because she only wore the apron.

Job

"Please, Baki. Like this is actually going to be my job. Weeds. Yeah, right."

Baki

When Baki died, and she found out who dared to, Temari was surprised to see it was Yūgao Uzuki, a beautiful ANBU member. When Temari demanded why, Uzuki's merciless eyes told her the story. He killed my lover.

Touché

"I hate you."

"Kind like you said that to your brother, and then two seconds later kissed his cheek?"

"Touché."

Deer

The deer in the forest seemed to love her, always approaching her without fear. "Now, if only the Nara heir could do that…-sigh-."

Heels

Little black dress + Heels = run

Gold

The gold band around her finger made Kankuro sputter.

Overprotective

Her overprotective brothers and husband made it very hard to go on a girl's night out. Her son didn't help much, either.

Boss

"Listen here girly. You may be my daughter and Kankuro may love you too much, but this is the rule: don't even try to sneak a peak when the bedroom is closed."

Ponytail

"If you have four pon'ails and daddy had one, den does dat mean I have to have five?"

Plants

Shikamaru's favorite habit went from watching clouds, to watching Temari watch plants.

Fragile

"NARA! What kind of fragile man are you to faint when I'm giving birth?"

Temari

The ball made of stained silk and lavender stitching made her eyes water. He never asked why.

Coffin

The coffin that contained his body made Temari feel sick. She might be old, and her children grown, but it didn't help that she just became a widow.

Cute

Her cute little shoes made him flinch—what if she kicked him with them?

Windswept

Her windswept hair and her tearing clothes did nothing to help the pain in his stomach.

Escort

"You're my escort. AKA, don't look at other girls. What are you smirking about? Oh. I said that out loud, didn't I?"
