Occasional nuisance and tedious pacing aside, Sasuke did enjoy going to class. Learning and improving was something he enjoyed, even if he didn't think he needed as much as his peers. As far as ninjutsu was concerned he was already ahead of the class, and he boldly predicted it would remain that way throughout their time at the academy. Did he know it all? No, and he knew that, but he was confident in his abilities. He knew discipline was a big aspect of it as well, and that too he thought he had in droves; he never got in trouble in class, unlike some of the other kids, and he did as he was told, wasn't that discipline?

"I know we're sneaky... Just some seem... Silly." Paper bombs for instance, what was sneaky about that? They could blow apart a building, there was absolutely nothing sneaky about that. Kunai he got, wire made sense, as did shuriken, but bombs? He was alright with his bow and he'd been practicing his kunai technique, not to mention he wanted to look into the Shadow Shuriken jutsu as well, shouldn't that be enough? He could probably use a few things fairly well, that should more than suffice at making him a shinobi. 

With the meal coming quickly to an end, they had to figure out what they were doing next. It was a little presumptuous for Sasuke to expect Yura to join him in anything, but he did want to try and keep her company for as long as he could. After being graced by another person, another Uchiha, for any period of time he had no desire to going back to being alone. She had been training before this, hadn't she? Well maybe she'd let him tag along, or even train with her; Sasuke knew he wasn't remotely equal to her in terms of skill, but it would be nice to have a partner. 

"Iruka...? I... I don't think so. He'd be happy I'm practicing," Sasuke answered uncertainly, hoping that to be true. Bows weren't really something they were taught to handle in the academy, he more took it up because of Itachi and from personal interest. If Yura was willing to let him train with it, something his instructors might not allow, then he was all too happy to do so. Looking at her somewhat skeptically when she said she'd snatch his arrows, the Uchiha boy hesitated briefly before giving a little nod, not seeing any problems with that. "If you want to, sure... I'll go get my bow."

Taking his polished off plate first to the sink, Sasuke set it down before hurrying off to his room, his bow sitting just under the window by the far wall. It was a little recurve bow, and he had roughly 7 arrows still in good condition in his quiver. Strapping the latter over his chest, he slung the bow over his right shoulder and hurried back out of the room, stopping briefly at the dining room to wave to Yura and show her he was ready. Then, slipping out to the back of his house he moved to the middle of the yard, waiting with some anticipation for his new partner to get here. Was he feeling excited? It was either that or nervous, he couldn't tell, but having a break from the monotony had him feeling all sorts of things right now.
