Hunger had been the motivating factor in getting Genma out of the lab. Hunger and a certainty he'd gotten the undetectable poison perfected. Which it wasn't, damn it all. Tsume could help him. Would help him. At least right now. But from the look on her face, if he even asked for a twenty minute break while he grabbed some chow, that would be twenty minutes in which she could very well change her mind and rescind her offer of help. He looked at Tsume, glanced at the door to the cafeteria, and decided that all things considered, he could let the dubious Tuesday lunch curry wait a little while. After all, he'd still be hungry when they finished, and curry--especially the cafeteria's curry--improved with sitting. And with hunger. Maybe they'd even throw something good like shrimp in by the time it was dinner curry.
"Great," he said, and gave Tsume a grin. "We should get coffee from the machine in the encryption office. They have better stuff than the rest of us get, on account of the fact that they're practically chained to their desks working on that stuff till their eyes cross. I wouldn't work Intel Internal if they paid me five times what they do now." He laughed, sure Tsume would agree with him on this point. Most Hunters would, but Tsume especially. He didn't think there were any Inuzuka working paperwork anywhere in Konoha.
"We'll go steal their coffee and then swing by the lab, if that works for you." |
