This is what happens when you take two sleep-deprived shinobi, chain them together, beat them up, lecture them for letting themselves get beat up, and leave them alone in a room together with orders to make up.

Can't you just feel the "warm fuzzies" now?

...I question your methods, Orochimaru-sama.

This is a bit of a sneak preview of where my fanfic is headed... xD It was very therapeutic to draw. Oh dear Jashin, I love torturing those two. :heart::heart::heart: They're just asking for it.

No, it isn't yaoi. I mean, you can interpret it how you like, but I had no intention of it being shounen-ai. I view them like bickering brothers. Kabuto's the older brother who wants to know why his baby bro' gets special treatment (not that kind of treatment, you pervs); Sasuke's the baby of the family, who does not appreciate his elder sibling's superior attitude. xD That's pretty much how I would sum up their relationship. Obviously things change with time, but it's how I picture them, at least in the beginning. ^^

About the picture: I reverted to messy cel-shading for this one. Since it's supposed to have a humorous feel, I didn't think it would soft cel-shading would suit quite as well. This style of shading and coloring adds to the cartoon-ish feel, I think. What do you think, am I right?

I'm pretty sure something about Sasuke's outfit is wrong. I didn't really use references... Also, I HATE SWORDS. >__<* RARGH! *killslay*

I really like this piece and your representation of Kabuto and Sasuke's relationship. I wrote a little one-shot/drabble fic based on this picture - I hope you don't mind. If you would like me to take it down, then just tell me!
