(Bluesky hates me. I'm JUST NOW getting this notification. 😭💔 Temma gonna smother in kisses to make up for taking 2 months to respond.

"That sounds like a wonderful idea. I'll be sure to let Gaara know before we head out. I plan on leaving in three days, so that should give us more than enough time to get things packed for the trip."

"It's a side project, mostly. Gaara requested that I make this. His student seems to be quite attuned to wind Chakra, so as a test, he wants me to recreate a mock version of my first fan. I'll be over there for about a week, just to make sure the kid knows what they're doing before coming home." +

"I'm just about finished. Just need to place in a few finishing touches then let the paint dry before mending it together." She places a hand on one of the board pieces. "Believe it or not, this fan isn't for me. It's for a student back in Suna."

Her hand froze before she quickly placed her paint brush back into the ink as a sigh left her lips. "Hello to you too, handsome. Did you have a pleasant nap?" Temari leaned back into his hands, allowing the knots in her shoulders to become untangled from his gentle movements.

Temari could be found sitting on the back patio with several fresh planks of bamboo laid out while carefully painting symbols over them. She hummed softly, making sure everything remained still. Looks like she was making herself a new fan.

"Oh, hey there kiddo. I hope you've been staying out of trouble.."

Good answer. He's safe from sleeping on the floor. ♡

"I suppose I should give some credit to this crybaby." @eien-no-hono.bsky.social

She raised a brow at him. "Really? Huh.. I'm surprised at you, Shikamaru. Why didn't you go to confirm whether it was him or not? There's nothing worse than struggling with self-doubt from the past."

"Oh, that's good to hear - at least about Red going into the academy." Her lips twisted a bit. "Are..you referring to your Sensei?"

"Shikamaru..?" Temari wraps an arm around his waist as she leans her head against his shoulder. "Is everything alright?"

{ @noteggysensei.bsky.social Talking with my twin and we are going back and forth about which male Naruto characters could pull off being a geisha. So far, Shikamaru, Kakashi and Iruka are the top candidates. This conversation is making me giggle.

It's bed time for @sabakunotemari.bsky.social and him~ He is going to give her all the s m o o c h e s and the cuddles before bed~

{True, true. I'm sure that at least 200 of those followers are multiple accounts that belong to one or two people. xD;

"Don't mind me. Just making up for lost time and giving you lots of kisses.~" 💕💋 @eien-no-hono.bsky.social

{Says the Shika with 400+ followers and I'm barely breaking 200.. I'm not all that popular.

{Which I am very surprised at. You seem to be very popular..

{ And if anyone needed a reminder, it was to have Albedo at 1k and Tema at 500 by the end of this month. If I reach that goal, I'd post a pic of me in cosplay. No way in hell is that gonna happen. Again, totally fine with me. I didn't want to go digging for that cosplay pic anyway.

{So, by the look of things. It doesn't seem like the challenge I posted on Albedo is going to be met. That's fine with me. Ya'll don't need to see my ugly mug anyway. :p

(I'm glad he did the thing, too. It's funny because Temari was the one who was nervous during the whole date.

(I'm with Ino on this one Bruh it was so painful watching Shika try to ask her out. 😂😂

(Sorry for not being on here or Ino. Haven't had much of a Naruto muse lately. My writing muse has been mostly on Melony and Athena. If you wish to follow me on either you can find me here @chillingxlove.bsky.social & @wisdomxwar.bsky.social

(Yeaah..no. I guess I'm not in the right head space to do temari today. Kinda not in the mood for the jabs and jokes towards Tema.

(Temari was just worried Shika would give an excuse to be lazy and sleep for the rest of the day. :p

Oh! Well, that's fantastic! ♡ In that case, a family movie night sounds perfect.

That depends. Has Shikadai been behaving?

Choose wisely-

"That's rather sweet of you. Thank you." ♡

(You are loved! Though I used to rp both of those muses, you're doing them both well! ♡♡ We love you and your writing.

"Awe..Thank you. Did you get these from Ino's shop or did you hand pick them?"

Why the stuttering? Is someone nervous?~ ♡

Oh? "What do you have there, kiddo?"

She'll have a handsome deer between her legs to go.~ ♡ No need to rush either. That's the one thing she doesn't mind he takes his time with..😏

{Sooo Imma head off of Temari for a bit, The 'running to Temari whenever Shikamaru does x' is wearing down on my muse. May or may not get on tomorrow. So I'm off to my Melony account.

She may have something in mind.~ 💕

If she feels that he needs to be taught a lesson, challenge him to a fight. See if she 'put him in his place'. Hopefully she does better fighting against Shikamaru than she did fighting against Temari.

O h ?~ Don't tempt her with a good time darling deer.

Perhaps she should have been more specific for what she wanted rated? Seemed like a pretty vague inquiry if you ask me.

S I G H As far as she is concerned, the situation with Neji, a Jounin she knows very minimal information about, Shikamaru is shit at using words. This sounds like a friend issue between you two. Not her problem.

She loves him too. 💕

Temari believes that he is finally catching on to how opinions are handled in Suna. IF YOU CAN'T HANDLE AN OPINION YOU ASK FOR THEN LEARN TO GET TOUGHER SKIN. NOT EVERYONE IS GOING TO THINK YOU LOOK LIKE SOME DIVINE BEING. He has his preferences and she respects that.

You know what? She's gonna allow it at this point since she was honestly asking for it. He was honest. She ain't mad. She would rather he be honest than lie to make the other happy.

{STAPH You're gonna make me craaaai.. Seriously though, this shit is adorable.
