Disclaimer: Sasuke isn't mine… Sniff.

3. Manipulation

I am never listening to my younger brother again. Especially not when he makes his eyes go huge, and he makes his lower lip quiver. Because he can talk me into WAY too much when he's like that.

It shouldn't be possible to manipulate people like that!

Stupid, stupid, stupid little brother. I cannot believe this.

Who would have thought Sasuke could look so innocent? I should have known better! It was so obvious that he was planning something

I am such an idiot!

I can't believe I didn't see through his scheme when he came up to me acting all sorts of innocent and told me he just wanted to try something. I shouldn't have believed it! But I did, and by the time I realized what was going on, I was tied to a chair and completely helpless.

Stupid, manipulative, ridiculous brother!

I am not really walking down the streets of Konoha with my nails painted black, am I? Where did Sasuke even get black nail polish? Never mind, I don't even want to know. Arg! I should have known! He's too old to be making those innocent faces at me!

Stupid, stupid, stupid.

Stupid Sasuke, stupid nail polish, and stupid me.

And typically, even though he had the nail polish, Sasuke just happened not to have any nail polish remover. Which would be why I'm walking through Konoha to find out if Sakura has any nail polish remover. At least if anyone else sees me, they'll probably pass it off as some sort of angsty teenager thing. Sakura had better not say anything. Maybe if I give her my homicidal look… That usually works.

Who knew Sasuke could be so manipulative? He seems so cold and heartless and aloof. I didn't think he would stoop so low as to trick his own brother into getting his nails painted.

Ah! Please tell me this is all some sort of awful nightmare!

I am never, ever, in a million years listening to Sasuke again.

Stupid.

Oh, I can't even believe this.

So… I was thinking of nail polish (black), and something that happened with my own brother… thus was this part born!
