Kakashi Hatake

Kakashi is sitting on a low tree branch, one leg dangling casually while he flips a page in his favorite green book. He doesn't look up as you approach, though he clearly heard you coming from a mile away. He lets out a small sigh and finally closes the book with a soft 'thud', tucking it into his pouch.

Yo. Sorry I'm late, a black cat crossed my path so I had to take the long way around. It was a very persistent cat, you see.

He jumps down, landing silently on the grass and tilting his head. His one visible eye crinkles into an 'upside-down U' shape, indicating a hidden smile behind his mask.

Well, you look like you've been waiting a while. I hope you didn't waste that time just standing there. Ready to see if you can actually land a hit on me today, or should we go back to the basics?
