sunshineverse | [Closed] Operation Picnic Basket.

Who: Team Picnic Basket (Kakashi and Gai) and their Hokage. And poor, poor Neji.
When: July 16.
Where: Out in some quiet place in Konahagakure.
What: Kakashi and Gai have noticed Obito get more and more frazzled lately, and so they come up with a plan to give him a little respite.

After reams of planning and various small bribes to various guards, the moment of action was finally here. Kakashi felt like they'd been strategizing for a battle. The mission; obtain and subdue, alternatively titled Operation Picnic Basket.

He returned from his errand mission entirely unscathed, feet touching down on hidden village soil in record time; and rather than sauntering to grab something to eat, or maybe dawdle around town a little, he made a straight line to report in with the Hokage. He had a job to do.

Once there, he knocked politely but didn't wait for an answer before strolling inside. Raising a hand to wave, his eye creased in a smile. The fact he could sense a weary slouch in Obito's figure even from this distance only made him more determined to fill out his part in the operation.

Kakashi slipped his arm into the others elbow, hooking him close and dragging him toward the exit.
"Hello, you busy?" he asked as they walked out the door. Target acquired.

"Since when have I been invested in being fair?" Obito scoffed, pressing his tickle attack, pleased that he took off his sandal to be able to be more effective about it, and using the hand he wasn't leaning on to pick up his thermos to drink, smirking.

"You have the wrong guy for that one Kakashi. You need to direct that to the guy practically sitting on you."

The guy practically sitting on Kakashi smirked and didn't even look guilty for his part in this. "Kakashi, if you had the chance to team up against one of us, you would! I think this is fair!"

He laughed and leaned more heavily onto Kakashi, before sending a quick glance back at Obito over his shoulder. "Of course, Rival, if you want to persuade me to help you team up against Obito, I am open to suggestions!"

Kakashi retracted one of the arms at Gai's shoulders to put a wedge between himself and Obito's attacking foot, allowing himself the mental break to actually be able to listen to what Gai was saying.

"I'm game," he nodded, and then with his defensive hand he grabbed Obito's foot by the ankle, giving it a good tug to secure the hold.

Obito's eyes went wide, and he capped his drink, shoving it and his plate out of the way as he tried to wiggle his foot loose. "Hey, hold up now. That isn't where this was going at all. Kakashi was the one we were teaming up against here, remember?"

Gai released Kakashi, easing off him and turning his attention to Obito, contemplating his opening for pouncing. He knew the Uchiha could dodge if he really wanted to--just phase right through both Gai and Kakashi's attacks. Didn't matter. The fun was in the chase anyway.

"Come on! You have to be more flexible! The game is changing! And now, you are It!" He lunged for Obito's sides, ready to tickle.

Kakashi rolled as he was released, freeing himself from Gai's hold entirely and switching to offensive at the side of his rival. Like this, on his knees, it was easy for him to wrestle both of Obito's ankles into his hold while Gai went for his sides. It was almost unnerving how well they worked as a team.

"Call it my payback," Kakashi shrugged idly from behind Gai's back. "Or a change of pace. Either way, it's your turn."

"Ahh! C'mon guys, weren't you the one preaching for fair?" He immediately wiggled sideways, attempting to squirm his way right around Kakashi. If he'd really wanted out, he could have, but he didn't mind playing around a bit. "If we're talking payback I should so kick you in the head."

He grabbed for Gai's hands. Sure he might not be stronger but he had a damn good grip.

Obito managed to snag Gai's wrists before he could get to effective tickling. Still, Gai laughed and continued to try valiantly to get at Obito's sides, trying for different angles of attack. He was sure with Kakashi distracting Obito, too, one of them would get through!

"It is fair that you get attention too!"

"Aah," he deflected with a waft of his free hand. "You couldn't kick me in the head if you tried. Besides, what kind of fair retribution is that?" His tease went coupled with one of his smiles, the kind that would annoy Obito best.

He pushed his arms out to make it harder to tickle him, scowling from one to the other, but it was playful, not actually upset. "Well maybe I wouldn't do it hard." Kicking his feet was getting him absolutely nowhere either, Yeesh.

"But hey, I was getting plenty of attention you know..."

Laughing at that scowl, Gai tried to tackle him, completely willing to take a hand or elbow to the face in the process. He tried to break free of Obito's blocks to get one hand in there.

"Not enough! I would think you would enjoy being the center of attention!"

Kakashi's hand tightened, grabbing both of Obito's ankles in a firm hold. With his free hand he assaulted a the man's feet with tickles, keeping his own body weight against his knees to avoid any sudden jerking movements that might have dislodged Gai.

"And this meeting is all about you, after all..." Kakashi teased.

"I didn't volunteer to be here!" He almost squeaked the last word, the tickling making him flail instead of effectively warding Gai away from him. Cheaters, they were both dirty filthy cheaters that weren't fait at all!

He didn't say as much though, instead managing to keep from letting the tickling sensation get to him. "I liked the other just fiiiine!"
