"...so we can't just find the answers?" Kiba groaned, flopping on the rooftop with his lunchbox on his chest. "I mean, that's the best answer right?"

"Things are different here," Shino noted, glancing at him briefly, judged by the shifting of his glasses! "Cheating is not a skill here. You should know these things from class."

Kiba lifted his head enough to glare at his teammate, "I know where the teacher keeps shit."

"Ahno..." Hinata winced.

"Ugh! I'm going to FAIL! Does that mean I'm kicked out of college and have to wait on the sidewalk all day?!" Kiba moaned, flopping his head back.

Hinata winced and patted his leg gently, "no, but you will need to repeat a c-class if you fail?"

"THAT'S WORSE!" Earth America History was so BORING. The others yeah he could scrape by without cheating but there was just no focus for him there. Even when there were battles he made his notes on how stupid it was and zoned back out! And they had so many leaders in so short a space!

"We will mourn your failure," Shino noted drily.

He lifted his head to glare at Shino again then groaned, "that's fair. Fuck I'm screwed. Could one of you clone technique me?" Take his test for him?

"That's cheating!" Hinata yelped.

"Team integrity!" he countered. He knew it wasn't going to fly but hey, he had to try. "I'll see if challenging the teacher to physical combat helps," he grumbled. It might? Who knew?

"Don't do that," Hinata sighed, "please. The teacher is a civilian!"

"Yeah yeah," he grumbled. "Sorry guys."

Shino snorted, "try reviewing notes before the test."

"I'll consolidate some notes for you!" Hinata beamed, launching from the roof to go find his classmates.

"...fuck," he grumbled.

"And heavy p-proteins," she smiled, stepping back. "Sorry our t-teammate jostled you!"

"Akamaru captured," Shino noted to Dezzi so she could get ready with a timer when he was tossed in!

"Totally worth it." the guy said before moving off to his own study group, chattering about the chase and capture.

"Thanks!" she said, getting her stopwatch out and waiting for her favourite nindog to enter the building.

She giggled softly and moved to watch the screens again, "did Akamaru intercept or w-was he hunted?" She'd been distracted!

Shino wiggled a hand back and forth slightly? Bit of both after all! And the nin-dog barked a laugh as he came in the window.

Dezzi laughed back at him as he hit the ground, and thumbed the stopwatch. "Five minutes!" she told Akamaru when Kiba was out of earshot again.

::Oh, he doesn't know that!:: happy pup was amused as hell! ::He'll be annoyed!

Hinata...knelt to wrap his annkles in bandaging and fishnet? Something to make things a bit more fair if Kiba decided to try tying him up instead! "Are you skewing the odds?" Shino teased lightly.

"AHNO!" ACK was she?!

"Bah, if Kiba didn't want things interesting," Dezzi said, "he should have studied sooner!" which got a roar of approval from the other students.

Shino looked at the others, then at Akamaru, arching an eyebrow..."I will refrain from suggestions," he decided, though it was utterly teasing in this case. This endeavor wasn't set up to be the kind of trap that more teammates could add!

Hinata giggled, scritching the nin-dogs chin once she was done wrapping, "v-very true!"

Dezzi didn't argue with Shino. This seemed fair, really. Akamaru got a kiss on the top of his fuzzy head before Dezzi called five minutes and opened the door for him.

"This is so much fun."

Akamaru yipped in amusement, checked the go pro on his collar band, and bolted silently after that moment!

"He's being more careful of the cameras," Shino nodded slightly, pleased to note that. "Next drop off we throw food at him."

Hinata nodded, "yes, carrying weights r-repetitively..." made for hungry work!

"I think he's posing for the cameras." Dezzi corrected with a howl of laughter. She then started making up some quick-to-eat foods and stuffed them in a bag he could shove in his belt.

"Just before he stuffs them in the student's shirts," Shino agreed with mild amusement.

"Ahno...what are other students feelings on s-stairwells?" Hinata winced as a girl got tackled over a railing to take the patented Dezzi Elevator(™) down several stories with Kiba!

Dezzi watched jealously. Stairs were her thing with Kiba. After a second, "Oh, uh. I did say it was possible." but she was going to pout anyway.

Shino nudged her very gently and passed a roll stuffed with cold cuts for the Kiba pouch, "he will have a headache if she screamed." So food was more important!

"Right." Dezzi agreed, "Gotta get to Willis tower at some point..." she muttered while rolling up more meat-rolls for Kiba.

"...Willis Tower?" Was this a strategic point they should be aware of?

"Tallest skyscraper in Chicago. Lots of stairs." for her to go plummeting down in Kiba's arms.

"Adrenaline addiction," he teased mildly. It was sort of funny though and the couple truly did enjoy it it seemed! "Look," he pointed to the camera that HAD gone dark after hitting that fall. It had jimmied free of the shirt to show the less than gracious way Kiba carried the, more like a rolled carpet on a shoulder as he chased another.

Not a single thing to be jealous of nope.

"Okay, good." she said at the sight, then she grinned at Shino, "Not adrenaline. Just...Kiba."

"Both," he countered. "You danced on roofs." JUST SAYING.

"Meet him on the roof." To pass food of course. Hinata and he would handle playing catch.

"That was just because..." she gave up, and dashed for the stairs to meet Kiba on the roof of the gym.

Kiba had tossed the two nearest and swung around to head out again when he spotted Dezzi and curved back up to the roof? "Eh?"

"Food!" Dezzi yelled, tossing the bag at him. "You're doing pretty well!"
