"masterchef mizu no kuni". "No matter how many people you may lose, you have no choice but to go on living." SUCCESSFUL COOPERATION
Shigure didn't know the context of Jou's family, but he couldn't help but to feel a bit envious of the fact that his parents didn't seem to care about his choice of hobbies. It was honestly tiring - at times - to be the heir of a noble clan like the Hyuuga. All eyes were on him at all times, and when the said eyes are the Byakugan, it means that you are definitely being watched at all times, no matter where you try to hide within your own house. It was a heavy burden and a great responsibility, and people seemed to be oblivious to the fact that he needed a way to blow off some steam, and that cooking was this safe place.
When Jou gave him a compliment on his manual skills, Shigure chuckled lightly. "I'm good with my hands. I guess it comes from my Taijutsu style. My eyes also give me great precision, it is a strong doujutsu. I guess I ended up transferring some of my ninja skills to my cooking, but it's only natural. I'm sure you do the same, in your own way, right?" his tone was quite friendly, and Shigure was showing himself to be quite open and laid back. They were from enemy villages, yes, but right now they were neutral, and he saw no reason why he couldn't be friends with people from other nations. If they wanted to ever break this cycle of hatred and war, those steps needed to be taken after all.
As he finished preparing the noodles, he looked over at Jou, who brought out some important ingredients, which would add a great flavour to the Miso and Shigure gave him an enthusiastic nod. "Oh man! I love that! Well... I guess you can make a better broth than me, so please, go all out, Jou-kun!" he said, chuckling lightly as he got excited with the prospect. The meal was proceeding smoothly and the smell was already intoxicating, and it was making Shigure's stomach rumble. He was looking at the pans in anticipation as they reached the point in which they were almost ready to be served. "Man, I can't wait to try this! Our teamwork is great! If I had to bet, we improved upon the original, eh?!" he said, winking at Jou.
"So what if it seems hopeless? If it were me, I still wouldn't give up. Embrace your dreams. And, whatever happens, protect your honour as a Shinobi, for the price of freedom is steep."
