       Neji's eyes flickered open.  "She isn't.  She's teasing you to
let off nervous energy."
       Anko was suddenly standing in front of him.  "You, Neji-kun, are
reminding me of why I hate Hyuuga."

Heh.

       "Make it short," Neji said dryly, "or at least entertaining.  I
already had to sit through one of these this week."

*SNRK*

Neji is embarking on a new career as a stand-up comedian.

       "I know that," Sakura responded without thinking, letting a
little too much irritation into her voice.  "Neji-san is stronger than
me.  I wasn't going to have any chance to win at all if I didn't take
risks."  She paused.  "Besides, I know Neji-san at least a little, and I
didn't think he'd go for that sort of strike right at the beginning
against me, particularly if he didn't think I was a threat.

Right, because he was EVER so easy on Hinata in the FIRST Chuunin exams...

True.  I'll probably rework a bit.

He has issues with Hinata that he never had with Sakura.

       The only interesting event in her time here had been when that
Leaf team had brought a Sand missing ninja who had been captured in the
Bird Country.  Temari smirked as she remembered how she had needled the
girl she'd fought in the preliminaries.  Now, that had been fun.  It
hadn't been fun enough to make up for the months of boredom, though.
Maybe accepting the promotion to chuunin had been a mistake.  If she'd
taken the exam again, she'd be in the Leaf Village now.  If she was
lucky, she might have ruined that Tenten's chances a second time.  That
would have really been fun.

Gee, she's nice.

It tends to be drowned out by Gaara's murderous psychosis, but his
siblings are kind of jerks too.  :)

Let's just say that I did not think the worse of Gaara for threatening 
to kill his family members.
