"Jiraiya! Staring at your cards like that won't make them all magically change; decide already!"
"Tsunade, this game requires skill…strategy…concentration. You cannot rush these things."
"Oh, please Jiraiya; if you don't hurry up we're going to make your decision for you." She huffed and turned to her other companion, "Orochimaru…make him hurry up."
The said genin lifted his glass of lemonade to his lips and took a sip, drawing the moment out as if savoring the taste of lemon on his lips for the first time. He finally spoke, "I believe that when sensei told us he wanted us to spend our day off together he also asked that you two at least try not to bicker."
"I did try," Tsunade pouted defensively, "It's impossible to get along with that idiot."
Jiraiya's face fell slightly at her biting words, but he covered it up quickly as he sighed dramatically and made a flourish with his arm. "I have decided!" He paused for good measure and proclaimed with enthusiasm, "Tsunade…do you have any…tens?"
Tsunade blinked once before narrowing her eyes at her teammate. "I despise you," she seethed, grudgingly handing over two of her cards.
He chuckled, enjoying his small victory as she stuck her tongue out at him. "Love you too, Tsunade," he said teasingly.
