Nightfall had approached quickly. They'd set up a campsite beside a small lake and unloaded their gear. It'd taken them moments; they never weighed themselves down with unnecessary belongings. Thankfully they'd stopped. Suigetsu wasn't going to complain. He was exhausted and whining only expended useful energy. The only thing to crossed his mind was whether a body of water is something Sasuke factored into the decision for the swordsman's benefit.
The Uchiha was softer than he let on… in his opinion. But this came from him; anyone just shy of murderous had a doughy centre. Ever watchful of his team - paying attention to three was much more difficult than only ever looking out for himself - Suigetsu takes night watch, preferring to perch on a large rock outcropping over the inky water. Wearing a solemn expression, he remains alert, but finds himself reminiscing.
'Why do you continue to follow me?' Every so often, it's asked. Every so often, he replies.
Selfish gain, maybe. He never really entertained himself with the question until now. He didn't care before. He has a solid footing in this team of four - his goals seem to tread closer with each passing day. With them, he feels anything is possible. His dream isn't just a dream now, it's something attainable, something so close he can taste it. He doesn't know what Sasuke intends to do, but in a moment of realization, Suigetsu decides that it's not his place to care. It's his place to help. He's needed; he knows this and it empowers him.
To think the great Uchiha, Orochimaru's greatest achievement, was asking for his skills. It feeds his ego, makes him tilt his head back, lips curling into a broad, razor-sharp smirk, violet eyes bright in reflection of the moon on the surface of the water.
And he finally has an answer. “Because you're fun~”
