Summary: Shino's lot in life goes hand in hand with death. He kills children his own age, grown men and women, anyone his village points him towards. He kills because he was born for the purpose, has no choice, together with his teammates. Their sensei taught them to be shinobi.
Tenten grew up as a struggling orphan of Konoha. A weapons specialist in training and gifted at Sealing Jutsu, she devoted her life to fight in the stead of those who can't. As a student of hard work, she and her team are taught to believe in themselves, the beauty and kindness of the world, and to protect life.
Nourished by blood and anonymity, a clan history of mass murders, Aburame Shino and Tenten, nourished by hope and love, become unlikely friends.

It was Kiba's fault their training ended early, and Shino wasn't happy about it. Because of Kiba, Kurenai-sensei made them all stop and insisted she take them to the dango shop. Shino didn't like dango.
By a stroke of luck they got the last table during the rush hour. They had just sat down and Shino decided to train on his own, and sent out a few insects to get a sense of the crowd. Untrained civilians, a few had weak chakra training, and then there was one with strong chakra, like a shinobi-- Shino looked up.
Tenten stood among the full tables, a plate of dango in her hands, looking lost. Hinata looked where he did and spotted her too, and called Tenten's name and waved happily. They were friends, ever since Tenten befriended Hinata on her birthday. Hinata still wore the kunai hairclip.
Shino nodded at her when she approached, but she just glanced past him.
