[Finally, someone that makes sense. Lili gets another small nod of his head and Neji's tempted to say a Thank You but he can't even fathom what it'd be for. He feels a silly tinge of pride at hearing the word 'grace'-- but hell, at least he'll admit it was silly.
Determined as he'd been to keep this short, Neji's eyes light up at the mention of Lee and the thought that this girl seemed to have him pegged as a circus elephant. 'Hard to manage'? Neji certainly won't say no, but the only thing he's being pulled at to clarify is the fact that he'd been only called an acquaintance, which was obviously more insulting than his teammate being, well, a beast.]
I would hope I know Rock Lee better than anyone here. [And yet Neji was still an absolute moron when it came to navigating the waters... But he continues.] We were teammates for six years back home. We were in the same class at the academy before then. 'Hard to manage' doesn't begin to describe him. I'm only glad he's been so well-received in this colony. [As evidenced by the fact Lili hadn't screeched about some creep giving Neji her number, for instance.]
