Konoha Genin - Team 9[/b][/center]

As Hiron gave the briefing on their actions during the mission, Shikaroku simply nodded. He had known what his faults were, and though it was nice to hear that they had done well, Shikaroku knew that as a team, they still had far to go. He himself had noticed Mia holding back during the mission but, unlike Masami, Shikaroku wasn't upset by it. He thought he already knew what Mia's reasons were, and though her actions had proven to be slightly detrimental to the success of their mission, they had still pulled through. And so he held no grudge against Mia, nor any hard feelings. They would all have plenty of time to work together and strengthen their teamwork. 

Shikaroku was excited for the prospect of working alongside a Hyuuga and an Inuzuka. They each had a particular set of strengths that would work well together. Coupled together with his shadow jutsu, Team 9 could be a formidable foe. He was brought back into the present by Masami's offering of tea. He was a little hesitant to accept the offer at first, still not one hundred percent certain how his migraines were going to fare after that mission. Shaking off his doubts, he decided that getting to know his new teammates was more important than hiding away for fear of pain.
