"You should dye your hair," Kakashi says, apropos of nothing. Obito furrows his brow.
"What, why?"
"Because for most people, white hair is distinguished, but on you it just looks weird."
Obito frowns.

"Eh? Dye your hair?" Rin looks up. "Why?"
"Kakashi seems to think I look weird. That maybe I wouldn't scare off the delegates as much if I dyed my hair and used foundation on my neck and hand."
Rin looks. It's true, the patches of cloned skin can look a bit off-putting. His hand and neck are the color of an etiolated egg, translucent and criss-crossed with fine, purplish veins. And that isn't even taking into account the scars on his face, which are jarring even on a good day. Rin frowns at him. "Wouldn't the foundation rub off on your clothes, though?"
"I don't know, would it?"
"Here," she says, and she rummages through her makeup bag.

On a whim, Rin goes to the convenience store to pick up some hair dye.
"I got a couple boxes so you can pick out the best color black," Rin says. Obito frowns at her.
"There's different colors of black?"
"Apparently there is."
"I feel idiotic," Obito says. Rin sets down her bag.
"For the record, I don't think you have to do this. I think your hair looks fine the way it is."
They both look at the box. "This seems complicated," Obito says.
He doesn't dye his hair.
