Naruto stomped over to his door, scowling. He hadn't figured out how to get back to Tora, and now someone was demanding to come in, and they probably wanted to beat him up again because of the whole 'touching Ekusa and Raksu' thing, and he -
- found that it was Ekusa pounding on his door. "Could you move any slower?" she jeered as she slid past him.
"Huh? Why're you here?" he asked, turning to face her and letting the door swing closed - which got a very annoyed sound from Sasuke, who'd just arrived. He shoved his way in with an expression that said he'd much rather be doing something - anything - else, and glowered at Ekusa. "Don't. You. Dare."
"Dare what?" Naruto asked, watching them both with a certain amount of suspicion - it could be that Ekusa wanted revenge for what he'd done, even though she'd seemed to like it at the time -
Raksu and Sakura both came in through the door as Ekusa walked up to Naruto and handed him the grooming kit she was carrying with a simple demand. "Groom me."
"Uh?" Naruto looked from the small bag of brushes and combs in his hand back to Ekusa, who'd switched to the form of an angora rabbit. "Why?"
"Because he -" Ekusa jerked her head at Sasuke - "says I'm not to ask you to touch me again. So. You see that big, flat brush? Use that. Slow strokes. Try and get through to my undercoat."
Naruto blinked at her, then at Sasuke, who was brilliant red and glaring at Ekusa as if he'd like to set her on fire, and then shrugged and sat down on the floor. "Okay. C'mmere!"
