[private -- to Marvelous]

[His usual matter-of-fact tone:] There are two more people from my world here.

[And then, much more reluctantly:] They'll be in need of a ship.

[private -- to Itachi]

Brother, my ... genin teammates are here. Former teammates. [A long pause, then:] It's complicated. I'll explain it to you if you want.

I'm not sure the captain will appreciate the influx of ninja, especially if more arrive and wish to follow suit, but I do think it's the best option for now.

[As much as Sasuke and Marvelous get along, he knows his brother ultimately doesn't care as much for the opinions of the crew anyway.]

[thethundersaid]

We have the room. As long as we don't fight, Marvelous probably won't care.

[If anything, the medical know-how is something they need badly. And in any case:] If they do cause trouble, I'll get rid of them myself.

[forthevillage]

Will you?

[The look he gives his brother next is hard to read.]

Let's hope it doesn't come to that, then.

[thethundersaid]

[Is that a dubious tone he detects? He can't put his finger on it and it rankles -- but without being able to explain what it is, he can't say anything about it. Sasuke settles for an acknowledging grunt.]

Let's hope.
