Turning the key inside the lock lead to a satisfying clicking noise as Tatsuo pushed his way into the door. His hand reached for a light-switch, flickering it on as he let out a hefty sigh. He wasn't physically tired as much as just mentally, all this politic and bureaucracy never set well with him, he did things because they looked like fun or they were right, not because it was codified in law or paper work permitted him to. But even the most free spirit had to be reigned in occasionally and if dealing with all those things allowed him to train Saito and help foster his young blazing spirit it would be worth it. Looking over his shoulder with a grin, he called to Saito "So how was your first day in Konoha?" Tatsuo went to sit on his bed and began to take off his sandals and his socks, flinching a bit at the smell of his own feet.
They had spent most of the day looking for an apartment or other housing arrangement to no avail finally deciding to retire back to their hotel on the edge of the Oak District, a bustling city center where trade and commerce were abundant. They took a few stops around the village, mostly for Tatsuo to see how much things changed but also to let Saito get a look around. "It's real nice to be sorta home." he said as he finally got his last shoe off, tossing it to the side. Leaning back but using his arms to support him he took a moment to glance around the room. A bedroom with two twin size beds, a small desk with a very uncomfortable looking chair. A book or two tucked away in a bookshelf in the corner next to a large glass sliding door which lead to a balcony overlooking the street. A full sized bathroom next to the door, equipped with everything one would expect a bathroom to have.
Looking to the TV, he bent over grabbing the remote and turning it on with an electric sounding click. There was some boring show about rice harvests in the Mud Country. Tatsuo furrowed his brows before turning it back off. Finally turning his attention back to Saito he stretched and said "I'm thinking tomorrow we can see about you getting into the academy, I personally think you're due to be a Genin so we might have to send a letter or something regarding that but in the mean time you can make some friends and maybe a rival or two if you're lucky." Thinking back to his own time in Cloud, it would've been impossible for him to grow as strong as he did in such a short time period had it not been for Hoshi and Hira who he considered not only his closest friends but some of his fiercest rivals. "It's important for you to find a rival or two, you can only learn so much training on your own."
As he awaited Saito's response he thought just how happy he was to be back in the village. While he held no ill will to Kumogakure, it was nice to be back where he felt like he belonged. Tatsuo was a tree, meant to grow in the forests of the Fire Country he couldn't help but feel stifled after a long time in the frigid enviroment of the Lightning Country. But that wasn't to say he regretted going there, he would've never made the friends he did, Saito included. "Oh and.. I'm glad you were able to come kid, I think we're going to have loads of fun." a huge smile crept on his face. He felt like nothing could tear him down at this moment, while he was usually happy and upbeat, it was definitely in over-drive today.
