Yeah, "fuschia tsunami" could work. It's better than Honeysouckle, which was all I could come up with.
Naruto with green spandex - I got the impression he'd have at least given it a try when Gi gave him one of the suits after the chuunin exams when he and Jiraya were leaving to look for Tsunade.
Sakura, being the odd one out in a gradutaing class the next year with the wrong number of students to be evenly divided into three member teams, would probably either get added to Ino's team on the strength of their former freindship, with Sasuke away on missions to keep from coming between them, or under Kurenai to train her strength in genjutsu. Either way, she's still better off than being ignored by Kakashi. My inclination would be to add her to the Ino-Shika-Cho, since they're a bit underpowered compared to the rest of that class and an extra team mate could make up the difference.
- CD
ETA: Nevermind, that would mess up them being assigned together as in the fragment above, which I quite liked. So, instead, everyone pretty much assumes that Naruto dropped out when he doesn't come to classes any more for what would have been his last year if he'd entered normally instead of two years early. Hm... I guess that means a couple more OCs to round out Neji/Tenten and Sasuke/Sakura - and the latter has to be someone pretty tough, who'd have gotten a bad turn in not passing the sensei's test in cannon, or the Wave Country mission would have ended quite badly. Also, I am working on a drawing of the team shot mentioned above, possibly to include an irked Hinata peeking around a corner in the background.What, you think Samuel L. Jackson isn't going to survive the zombie apocalypse?
SERVO: Loook *deeeeply* into my eyes... Tell me, what do you see?
CROW: (hypnotized) A twisted man who wants to inflict his pain upon others.

Quote:Sasuke would also probably graduate early, since there's NO WAY he'd let the dobe show him up like that, conveiniently adding a second guy to tam up with Neji and TenTen, but since he would have otherwise graduated normally he'd probably only scrape through after skipping a year, justifying them as a balanced team, and letting him take Lee's place as the guy looking to surpass Neji - not that Lee would STOP, just that without being stuck on the same team it wouldn't be quite so bad. Kakashi would still be talked into taking the team with Sasuke on it, as the only other person who posses a sharingan besides Weaselpants. Sasuke training with Tenten in thrwn weapons has the potentiual to be truly frightening, I think, even more so since she's not one of his fangirls and would take it seriously.
And trying to think about how this... spectacle... has altered the -other- teams out there has led me to imagining Tenten's expression the first time her team accepts a mission from the Godaime Hokage. Heh.
