Finished june 28, last day of school. Last day of school, last drabble. Seems fitting. If anyone has any suggestions, I'll type them up and publish them at the end of the month. I wrote drabbles mostly about the Konoha 11 because i like most of those characters. Aside from Jiraiya and Kakashi, i don't like most of the adults. The more i read over what i've written, it seems i've finally found my style and genre! Horray for angst and descriptions! r&r!!!

Temari sighed as she watched Kankuro fiddling around with one of his puppets, trying to find a way to cram even more weapons into it. It was a balmy day in Sunagakure, a day where nothing seemed to happen and everybody seemed bored. Even Gaara was affected, finding it too hot to go on a killing rampage.

"Shit!" Swore Kankuro, holding his bleeding finger. He had sliced it on one of Karasu's few unpoisoned blades, and was very glad he hadn't nicked it on one of the poison ones. The poison he had coated them with made all your skin flake off and gave you a fever that would break thermometers. Temari rolled her eyes and glared at her younger brother.

"Damn it Kankuro, do you have to cut yourself on every single weapon you have?!? It's getting stupid," she groaned. The Sand siblings were currently lazing about in some apartment room, they couldn't remember where, and were bored out of their skulls. Gaara was lying upside down on the large bed, staring at the ceiling, with his gourd beside him. Temari was sitting on the windowsill, leaning out above the bustling main street of Sunagakure. And Kankuro was currently sitting in the middle of the floor, surrounded by vials of poison and pieces of his dismantled puppets.

"Shut up. Just cuz you can't appreciate the delicacy that it takes to manipulate puppets doesn't let you-"

"Delicacy?! If it involved any sort of delicacy you wouldn't be able to do it!" Barked Temari, pouring the kind of venom only big sisters can apply into her statement. Kankuro growled at her and tossed one of his poisoned knives at her. The kunoichi sighed and stood her fan up in front of her face, ignoring the sound of the knife bouncing off the meal fan. "Yeah, that's real smart. Just go ahead and throw one of your oh-so deadly knives at me. Do that again, oto, and you'll need to go shopping for some new puppets."Her younger brother growled again. "And stop that growling, You sound like some sort of filthy beast."

That comment resulted in Kankuro leaping up and flinging puppet parts at his sister, who merely flapped her fan in front of her face and shielded herself. "Shut up! You think you're all high and mighty just cuz you know how to use a little fan," he sneered, crossing his arms and taking a defiant stance.

Temari wasted no time retaliating. "This coming from you, the guy who uses dolls for fighting? Ooh, I'm dying!" She fake wailed, holding her face as though it were melting.

Kankuro flared up at once. "Karasu is not a doll, he's a puppet!"

Temari wagged her finger in the air. "Ah, but both are children's playthings."

"So are fans!"

"SHUT UP!!!" Came a roar from the bed. Temari and Kankuro turned to see Gaara lying on his stomach fixing them with his famous death glare. "If you two don't shut up, I'll tape your mouth's shut," he hissed. Temari and Kankuro covered their mouths in an attempt to hide their giggling. Gaara narrowed his eyes again. "What?" He asked, which caused his siblings to launch into greater fits of laughter.

Temari was wiping tears from her eyes as she answered. "Do you have any idea how funny that sounds coming from you?" She slipped deeper into her pool of hysterical laughter, sliding down the wall as she did so. Gaara raised a hairless eyebrow. "I mean, i-if you were trying to threaten us, you would tell us you'd kill us, not tape our mouth's shut!" More laughter.

Gaara shrugged and returned to staring at his patch of ceiling. "I'd kill you if it wasn't so hot. The blood would seep everywhere and would stink up the place," he closed his sea green eyes. "Killing you two would be more trouble than it was worth." Kankuro and Temari fell down laughing at that statement. Turns out Gaara of the Desert does have a sense of humor.
