Airi’s hands slowly moved away from her face as Kakashi came to her ad about the fact that they weren’t dating. It was sad that they had to say that… wait… sad? Why sad? Her brow crunched together slightly when she realized she was almost disappointed over the fact that they weren’t dating, or at least progressing towards it. That was a sudden and unexpected change of feelings. But for now, it wasn’t the time to sit and dwell on it. 

Shaking her head slightly, she returned back to the conversation to hear him use the reasoning of having her as a second set of eyes. Her cheeks calmed down and she lowered her hands to her side as she gave them a nod. [i]Good idea Kakashi.[/i] She thought, though had she known they were going to take this route, she would have brought a book and a pen with her to make it seem like she was actually here for this. But it was too late for that. 

Her blue gaze moved back to Kakashi for a moment, her eyes twinkling with a sense of anticipating and thankfulness that she gets to watched. He had a valid point of why it would be beneficial for her to watch but at the same time, watching him teach them would give her the motivation and skills to return to her former glory or… something close. Gaze flicking back to the students before she began to speak. “It may not seem like it but this guy,” She pointed directly at Kakashi without hesitation, “Is one of the best ninjas in the world and he can overlook some things because he does it naturally that he doesn’t think to share it. That’s where I come in; I think Kakashi would agree with me that the basics are the stability to become the best ninja.”

A laugh left Airi as she nodded. “And you’ll get a challenge, the basics aren’t easy but they are done so naturally that most people forget them. Master the basics for they are the true base of all ninjutsu.” Sliding her hands behind her back she leaned up against the last unoccupied post with a grin.

“I look forward to see your progress and Kakashi’s methods.” Her gaze moved to Kakashi again with a nod. “You should probably begin considering how long they’ve been waiting.” And as their training begin, Airi mentally took notes.
