deidara was lazily lounging in the akatsuki base, trailing his hands through his own hair, trying to not show that he was very upset. his bestfriend sasori had died last week, all because of a weakling pink haired medic. he wanted to kill her, just to get revenge on sasori. but he knew it wouldn't do anything to bring back sasori, and he let out a stifled sob. he buried his head in his hands, sniffling, while trying to hold back the tears, but it all crashed down. deidara started to cry, his whole body shuddering from the force of each cry of pain.

konan was peeking through the door frame with tobi, looking at deidara as a wave of pain washed over her heart. she knew how deidara felt, she had lost yahiko. but at least yahiko was now "pein", the same couldn't be said for sasori. konan moved a foot to go and comfort deidara when tobi went into madara mode and said seriously "just let the boy cry, he needs too, afterall his best friend and mentor just died." konan nodded, and returned to her room to go bug pein but she wondered would deidara evr really recover from this?

tobi was staring at his partner in crime, and a frown tugged at his mouth; hidden by the mask he wore. deciding it would be best to leave deidara to wind down by himself, tobi skipped, hopped, and jumped back to thier shared room. now if only he could find a decent pair of pants around the base...
