The polite (and slightly imperious) princess and the off-white knight.

You could take that act on the road.

I wonder how much they expect we'll need to be taught. They did see us trap Itachi afterall.

Your mother snorts, and bites down on a smile. "Excuse me," she says, running out into the hallway and bursting into cackling laughter.

Tenzo sighs, visibly deflating. "Well, then," he says, smiling weakly, "shall we go to the park?"

Tenzo's abilities are interesting. You don't believe you've encountered someone whose powers encompass the manipulation of both trees and dead wood; the tiny playhouse he makes for you on the spot is almost comically detailed. Your own abilities are geared specifically toward 'awakening' life; Tenzo's appear to revolve around 'wood-charming', pure and simple. Life-manipulation is an adjunct of the power, not its source. Furthermore, he makes use of the handsigns you've seen other ninja use for elemental techniques.

So when he asks for a demonstration of what you yourself can do, you're faced with a minor quandary. Should you be up-front regarding the actual extent and nature of your powers? Or should you attempt to use your (admittedly scanty) knowledge of handseal theory to conceal the fact that they don't fit the existing paradigm of 'wood users'?

[X] Go all out.

[X] Mimic Tenzo's abilities.
 
Hard choice... On the other hand we could go all out and they would think its a new bloodline limit or something or then we could try and pass it as the more traditional ninja arts but i dont trust our ability to mimic the hand seals well enough and sensors maybe able to tell the difference between what we do and what Tenzo does.
so yeah gotta go with
[X] Go all out.

-[X] no seals, just copy what he made, but bigger (grow a tree, then make a treehouse in it)
 
(x) It doesn't hurt to have an ace or twelve sleeved. Use handsigns when using life awakening powers.

So....who thinks just faking the hand-signs might ed up screwing up whatever we try to do?

Click to expand...
Click to shrink...
Eh, I figure just faking handsigns without getting chakra involved would be fine.
 
But would n`t that also raise the issue why we are unable to copy tenzos jutsus if we try to make it appear as if we emulate him there?
 
[X] Fake learning.
-[X] Don't conceal the nature of your powers. Start with smallish effects and work your way up, like you aren't sure what your limits are and are working it out as you go.
-[X] Make random handseal-inspired shapes. Octopus, Itsy-Bitsy Spider, Go Longhorns. Don't bother trying to make them fit what you're doing.
