[The elusive and sticky little fingers of a lone imp opens the feed just as Zero's fist - blackened with ink from mid-forearm to the tips of his long fingers - slams back against a navy and white tiled bathroom wall with a thick, though sharp sounding crack!, splintering the ceramic. Small chunks and bits of those tiles crumble to the floor where

Stupid?

[It's a side he hasn't yet seen of this man, and it draws his attention surely enough. Off doesn't even begin to describe, though the implications. . .half-pieced as his picture was of things, it was enough to start drawing lines.

Cool, collected -]

What have you gotten yourself into this time, Zero?

[He doesn't want to deal with Sasuke right now. ...Although, he also doesn't want to deal with the current situation, as a whole.

A pointed gaze, eyes lighter than usual... almost too bright, even. They avert, however, camera shifting when he winces from a spike of pain.]
