[Finally, some semblance of life in this girl. They didn't even have to be charged by a monster to get it this time. Not that he was one to talk, but he couldn't know if she was putting up the same walls consciously or not. And of course Neji knew he wasn't the full cause of that amused look, not when she faltered and had him pry his gaze away from those dressing rooms they were supposed to try their luck in. Still.

He'd made a poor show of being Lee's comrade, hadn't he?] It's not as if I've made telling me these things easy. [And really, if someone wanted innate gentleness they'd have to seek out his lady Hinata. Her image is buried as soon as it's brought up. It was Kozukata Yuri Neji was attentive to now, curious.] Superior sight isn't given to just anyone in my world, either. There are measures in place to ensure certain secrets are well protected, and the abilities stay with the people who will best use them. [And then there were the Uchiha. But anyway.]

Chakra is something very basic. Because of that, it's difficult to put into words. I suppose you could call it a life force. [But they were talking of it because he still had it, so, no that couldn't be all that it was.] We'll just have to imagine what you can see and what I can feel are similar.

At least until we can test it.
