That wasn't something Sasuke heard often, his gaze snapping up in a bit of surprise before he hid it as quickly as it appeared. He wasn't sure he even had ideas as to what to do with Itachi for an entire day; he was definitely certain that it had been a long time since they'd spent that much consecutive time in each other's company.
Stalling, he worked on finishing off his omusubi, trying not to grin a bit at Itachi's description of his Chuunin exams task.
"They're making you the genjutsu gatekeeper? Is anyone going to pass?" Sasuke's year hadn't been too bad, though he did also recall that there were plenty who hadn't passed the genjutsu round that year, either.
He made a face at the question, though, grabbing a napkin to wipe his fingers. "I don't have an official assignment yet. I'm on a mission until the day it starts, so sensei will probably just put me somewhere."
There was as much dead certainty in his tone as resigned aggravation -- there were perks to being the Hokage's student, maybe, but mostly there were downsides about appearing in official places and showing dedication to the village in everyday tasks. So Obito said.
