dokuhebi:
When they had asked her to elaborate on her original comment, they had not quite expected to be handed so much information surrounding her life. Evidently, she was not one to keep secrets. An uncommon trait for rogues, one they only usually saw with those that had become rather disinterested in life as a whole. When secrets were too burdensome to bother with. Whether they take her words as truth or not is unclear, they know what she has said and claimed, and they are not inclined to think her lying, but they reserve believing anyone until further evaluation. The blade however, is retracted and sheathed.
“You compare your sensory abilities to that of the Kazekage, would that mean your powers are of similar caliber?” they ask, golden eyes alight with intrigue. It wasn’t a power they had researched much on, but it may be rather convenient if that research found them. In the form of a runaway heiress. Given she had fled before, they imagine she isn’t one to offer studies on her abilities however. And they had long since stopped their human experimentation. Especially with Konoha watching them so closely. “Don’t you think divulging that information is a risky thing to do?” they ask her rhetorically, “you never know who may value your powers more than your life.”
She rubbed at her neck instinctively, grateful for the blade to be sheathed. She had long since ceased caring about who knew her story. Especially after the war, she figured shinobi had given up finding her. There were some here and there before the war, but she struggled to remember the last time a team was sent in search of her.
“I don’t know, I’ve never met him,” she shrugged. “I just use him as he’s the most known person with Magnet Release. Most I know with Magnet Release have his kind; they can magnetize objects or people.”
She didn’t want to do a power display for this person, especially since the two first met with a blade on her neck.
“Hmph, most people who value my powers have learned to leave me alone,” she glared with contempt. The last time her clan sent a team to capture her, every single one in the five person team were left on the border where they found her. Not a single one was left standing. “If I think someone only wants me for my powers, I’d rather die than be sent back.”
