You are Yamanaka Ino, and you are currently watching a staredown between a tall girl with red, peeling skin and a straight-backed boy as pale and cool as a snowbank.
Fire and Ice, eh?
Nice imagery.

"I believe you owe me an apology."
The third Google result for this phrase is the lyrics for The Game's Change Your Life.
I bring this up because the following lines were:
Next day she like "You owe me an apology"
I'm like "What for?"
She like "Why you unfollow me?"
Since we bringing up old shit
Last time you gave me head, bitch why you ain't swallowing?
For some reason I find that inordinately funny.
Anyway, Nine Inch Nails-Terrible Lie has something close.
Also Donnie Brasco(1997).

("Ooh, check it out, catfight brewin'.")
("That's a guy, Gaara.")
("For real?")
I swear, Gaara does this just to get a rise out of his siblings.

Neji looks up at her balefully. "For what? Advising you against facing an opponent you almost died fighting? If we had been in a civilian building you could have killed us all."
("Holy crap you were right! Where'd the other one go? There was a chick, too, wasn't there?")
("She's over there with the spiky-haired kid. Bastard didn't even wake up when the room was on fire, can you believe that?")
Ami glares. "I won, didn't I? I beat the big bad Mist-nin you were so frightened of."
"You fight like a genin," he replies coldly. "You should drop out of the exams right now if this is the extent of your skill. Someone who spares no thought for the greater situation is completely unfit for promotion."
"You smug-!"
"Neji!" Gai says, a little too jovially. "The medics inform me that Lee has just awoken! Shall we visit our youthful teammates?"
Neji nods at him, not giving Ami a second glance. "Good. Let's go, then."
Your lanky teammate seethes.
*sigh*
Neither of them are likely to be sent for diplomacy anytime soon, are they?
And they both just gave away the fact that they were briefed by someone, in the presence of competitors.
It's safe to say neither will be making chuunin.
I mean, Ami may have started it, but Neji escalated in ways that you would think he had a blood feud with her.
And all she wanted was a little acknowledgement.
I wonder if the scar would have helped.
[X] Shit, no way, Ami needs to hear someone congratulate her and Shikamaru needs to know Kankuro can shoot him.
This.
She is your teammate after all.
Not that there's a need to tell Shika anything about Kankuro's gunmanship; Shika's smart enough to have considered it after Gaara pulled one, and he already knows Kankuro is a puppet user.
Besides, Sand isn't dumb; the Yamanaka-Akimichi-Nara alliance is well known, and it's entirely possible that Gaara leaked that bit to misdirect Ino.
And Kankuro is sharp enough to play along.
Unconfirmed info is unconfirmed.
