[ An absolutely scandalized and outraged expression right here. Fucking prodigys, flashing their amazing abilities all around and then just. Picking their fucking nose as if anyone can do it. ]

Why wouldn't you?!

[shirogaki]

Seems like a lot of work. I don't get what difference it makes.

[ Especially not when it comes to how other people see benders. What do they care if he's really good at it? Those who want benders gone would probably like him even less. ]

[nobleofmadness]

[ why you little lazy-- ]

It makes a lot of difference! You -- you could be our ace in the sleeve! Besides, you know, renowned masters are famous. People throw free tours and meals and honour at them!

[shirogaki]

[ He blinks, finger still stuck up his nose as he turns his head to actually look at Katsura. ]

Do they really?

[nobleofmadness]

[ level stare ]

[ normally I'd describe how genuine, earnest and honest-to-god it looks, except he's got it on pretty much always when he's lieing or just making shit up, too. there is literally no way to tell. ]

Of course. Simple shop owners feel honored that someone like that even shows up to dine at their place. It's like free advertisement.

[shirogaki]

[ Wait a minute.

He flicks a booger at Katsura. ]

Are you sure? I've never seen anything like that.

[nobleofmadness]

[ Ew why would you do that. Tilts head hoping it will fly past. ]

Of course I'm sure.

[ He really is, because everything he says is true in his head. ]

Naturally, you may need to do something more if you wish to have your statue erected in the city, but less than that is enough to make people want to placate you.

[shirogaki]

Hmmm.

[ IS IT STILL WORTH THE EFFORT, THOUGH? ]

Maybe I should just join the Pro-Bending Tournament. Become the champion.

[nobleofmadness]

[ considers it. ]

That's not a bad idea, Gintoki. We could even make merchandise and sell it.

[shirogaki]

I need a team, though.

[ EYES KATSURA. ]

Why haven't you practiced your bending better, aa? And you think you've got any right to get on my case about it.

[nobleofmadness]

[ FROWNS ]

What a mean thing to say. You do know I practice every other day. I'm sure my hard work will pay off sooner or later...

[ huffs ]

Anyway, why not take Shinsuke? He's pretty good.

[shirogaki]

Obviously every other day isn't good enough.

[ A huff. ]

I still need a third.

[ Tatsuma? He's so not a fighter, though. ]

[nobleofmadness]

[ He does want to bring up Tatsuma, too, but Gintoki's face already suggests what he'd think of it. ]

Well, maybe if you agreed to spar with me more often, it would go faster.

[ It's not like they have to sign up for the tournament TOMORROW, right? The whole life's ahead of them. ]

[shirogaki]

You're the one who doesn't want to let me lie down while we spar.

[ He'd still hold up perfectly fine. Why should he be standing up? ]

[nobleofmadness]

[ sorry, have a proof of why he's having trouble with water as he ]

[ PUNCHES YOU SQUARE IN THE JAW ]

Who the hell lies down while fighting?! It's disrespectful to your opponent, disrespectful!

[shirogaki]

[ Slow blink. ]

Your point?

[nobleofmadness]

[ ... ]

[ KICKS VICIOUSLY ]

[shirogaki]

[ SCREAMS in a manly way AND JUMPS BACK. ]

Hey! Want me to put a rock in your skull, bastard?

such best frands

[nobleofmadness]

[ wOW way to threaten your best friend ]

You wanna fight, bastard?!

The bestest

[shirogaki]

Bring it!

[ Come hither motions. The not-seductive kind. With all fingers. ]

[nobleofmadness]

[ TAKES A FUKKEN STANCE ]

[ UNCORKS HIS WATER BAG ]

[ SENDS A WATER WHIP AT GINTOKI'S FACE WITH A NICE SWISHY MOTION ]

[ ...it just sort of splashes him in the face and drips down, no different from an angry girl throwing her drink on him ]

1/2

[shirogaki]

...

2/2

[shirogaki]

[ JUST FUCKING DOUBLES OVER LAUGHING ]

[nobleofmadness]

[ TWITCHES ]

[ JUST STANDS THERE, EYE AND CORNER OF MOUTH TWITCHING ]

[ THEN SLIGHTLY HYSTERICAL LAUGHTER ]

Haha, that's exactly what I meant to do! Ha...

[shirogaki]

Cut the crap, Zura! Just admit you're shit at this!

[ That's not entirely fair, because he also knows Katsura is capable. Just for some reason it's not constant. ]
