"Reasons for Art"
------
Konan and Deidara are sitting peacefully in the Akatsuki hideout.
Deidara: Konan-sama?
Konan: Yes, Deidara-kun?
Deidara: I always wondered, why do you like origami so much, hmm?
Konan: I suppose for the same reason you like making clay explode so much. Just like how Sasori likes his puppets, and Kakuzu likes his sewing.
Deidara: I guess everyone has their own ideas about art, yeah.
Konan: -folds a small crane and watches it fly around- Art is truly a mystical force.

"Stitching for Profit"
Kisame: Kakuzu-san, do you ever use your threads to stitch anything besides Hidan's head?
Kakuzu: Not really. Why?
Kisame: -grin- I bet if you were really good you could make clothes and sell them!
Kakuzu: Hn... Why didn't I ever think of that?
Kisame: But knowing you, you'd probably make a weird patched up dress that nobody would buy!
Kakuzu: -sulks- Kisame... that was truly heartless.

A/N: More to come soon. I hope to go up to 4-5 shorts per chapter after this, if people like it enough.
