This, at last, felt familiar enough. Neji couldn't recall the last time Naruto had mocked his standard beverage, however suddenly it did not feel as though it had been too long of a while. The fact allowed him to feel slightly more pleased by Naruto's action, eyes trained on him intently, the corner of his mouth twitching briefly.
It wouldn't be the same without the same reaction, however, and so he gradually reached out. Neji's fingers were longer and thinner than Naruto's, but still capable of deftly prying the other pair away from the teacup. Ignoring the handle, they wrapped around the warm porcelain and pulled it back to his half of the table. As his eyes shifted to inspect the drink in question, he turned the cup between his hands.
Of course, he knew perfectly well that there was nothing wrong with it. This was Naruto's taste, or lack thereof. And so he lifted the cup to his mouth, taking a slow sip. The blond still didn't seem to be in that obvious in a hurry, after all.
He swallowed and replied with a plain twist of Naruto's words, however certain that the response would fail to impress the other, "By being an old lady."
