[mem] Character Qs for As.

ooh gimme tenten's 5, 13 and 35

5 She goes over her weapons! She's a collector, after all, and will eventually open a shop because she has so many they won't fit in her house anymore. (Yes, that's canon)

She'll just... go over them, admire them, perform maintenance if needed...

It's comforting to her, at least.

tenten, smiling softly as she sharpens a knife.......

exactly

13. Best way to cheer them up Ask her about weapons. Or give her some Chinese food, either or, but weapons are the quickest way to her heart. Another good way is to just, y'know, treat her as good and competent in her own right. Which is apparently rarer than she needs.

(I figure Neji, Lee, and Gai all kind of take it for granted that she knows how important she is to them, so they kinda forget to actually tell her, even while they're praising her to everyone else.)

(Tenten craves positive reinforcement, but apparently doesn't get much of it.)

(Or what she does get is awkwardly phrased, like "You sure are convenient to have around")

35. What makes them happy to think about Please don't sigh, but I'm about to say 'weapons' again. She just loves ninja tools, from the simple kunai to the exotic ones like the flying guillotine or three section staff. She finds even the plainest ones charming, in their own way.

If we're talking P90/Wilderlands Tenten, add Catra to the list.

(Unless she's in one of her moments of thinking this is entirely a pity relationship.)

(Tenten has a lot of self doubt, okay.)

(Like, even though she puts up such a proud front, she's a mess.)

(Especially when she compares herself to someone like Temari or, more pointedly, Haruno "Became everything Tenten wished she could be" Sakura.)

(You ever notice that she only started carrying super-heavy items after her fight with Temari?)
