(placing a hand on the floor to brace himself, suigetsu watches sasuke cross the room. he wonders what exactly it feels like to be missing a limb like that, if it still feels like it's there and he tries to reach with it and can't. the realization must be depressing.

silently thanks his heritage for the ability to regenerate lost appendages from any source of water...)

You know where to find me, if it's not. (a joke, as suigetsu stands to receive the chokutou, smirking.) It's in good hands. I'll clean and sharpen it before giving it back.

(just a little hint at the fact that he's more than willing to help out and never discuss it outright. a peek at the blade in the sheath with a hum of appreciation.)

You want anything while I'm there?

(might as well kill two birds with one stone.)
