TenTen is highkey under-appreciated and I'm lowkey disappointed

"Does Tsunade-sama have any other legendary skills?" Tenten eagerly asked Gai-sensei with her hands clasped.
Gai searched his fading memories of the Slug Sannin before replying, "Well, what's left is legendary drinking and gambling, I guess."
"But you can't imitate that," he said in amusement to her.
A young Tenten was angrily making her way toward the Kuraku Bar. Dressed in her signature adolescent outfit of a pink sleeveless qipao-styled blouse and dark green pants, she gritted her teeth as Gai-sensei's voice continued in her head to say, "You're still a girl after all. No way, no way."
Sarada gasped at the man's ignorance. Her Mama had imparted to her gender equality was a Thing, and she needed to be mindful of it everyday. Boys can cook and sew, girls can fight and also be absentee parents (Jealousy? Who is she?), and blah blah blah. Her hand itched to just reach into that moment and give that chortling man a good punch in his gut.
Tenten held back her strong urge to deck her teacher. So what if she was a girl?! A girl can be just as good as a man, maybe even better! After all, exactly which gender gave birth to that asshole? Women, that's who!
Clenching her fists to anchor herself, and drawing in a deep breath, Tenten threw open the gate to the bar and stepped into the bar while brushing away the noren hung on top of the doorway.
As she slammed shut the gate, she called out to the barkeeper "Sake!"
Not a moment later, Tenten was chastised by the barkeeper while held under his arm, "You can drink when you're twenty!" before being rudely thrown out of the premises.
ChoCho silently kept to herself in that she had already long ago drunk herself stupid with her lovely, clueless Papa during BBQ Nights, and that it just became a normal part of Akimichi celebrations. The drinking, not the black-outs.
Tenten wanted to indulge in her impulse to just SCREECH at the injustice she dealt with today.
So uh, sorry for the accidental 2 year hiatus? Lmfao, I got no bs to give except to tell y'all the coronavirus gave me no excuse to NOT update with 6 weeks of self-quarantine planned.
