I know you can.

I don't think I could handle seeing it happen. So it's for me. And for Naruto, too. I can speak to him in a way he'll understand.

[hallowing]

all right.

i'll leave it in your capable hands then, sweetheart.

[chokuto]

Cy.

I love you.

[A little emotional from the conversation, maybe, but it was bound to happen on this topic of discussion.]

[hallowing]

[chokuto]

I just wanted to say it.

What are you doing?

[hallowing]

[hallowing]

（ so he just sends a picture. he is absolutely up a tree. ）

[chokuto]

[You're in a tree, his favorite hangout place, WITHOUT HIM?]

You texted me first. About clones.

[hallowing]

[chokuto]

[hallowing]

[hallowing]

[hallowing]

[chokuto]

You're the one acting stingy.

[hallowing]

maybe you can convince me otherwise

[chokuto]

Fine. I will.

[A sucker for a challenge...

He isn't far from the Vale, which houses the tallest trees in the resort, so it's simple to cut over through the conservatory and descend down into the humid, forested area below. Unless Cy uses his ability he's not going to be able to sense him, but that's okay. He leaps into the first tree he finds; he'll check every single one if he has to.]

（ cy, meanwhile? is literally just chilling in a tree, comfortably sprawled out. his back to the main trunk, legs crossed and supported along one of the branches — he's got a stalk of grass between his teeth and he is idly whistling in a soft refrain — not loud enough to be heard from far away, but enough that once sasuke's close he'll hear him.

he doesn't want to make it too easy — but he also doesn't want to make it too hard. ）

[chokuto]

[The whistling certainly helps in proximity, but Sasuke does not lack skills in hunting men down, so he follows other signs of trespass in the greenery — Cy had no reason to cover his trail to take a nap in the trees. Perhaps he should have made it harder.

After a short time, he's in range enough to pinpoint the correct branch, hesitating only in the decision of his approach. In the end, he drops down from above — utilizing stealth not to be noticed — weight jostling the branch where Cy reclines.]

Too easy.
