I Love This Sm

I love this sm

In my headacanon, Neji and Lee tried secretly tried to remove Tenten's buns to see how beautiful she would be with long hair, but Tenten herself will remove the buns and show them after finding their plan.

YES!!!!

listen I love the idea that nobody’s seen Tenten with her hair down and that Team Gai spends their down time trying and failing to get Tenten to wear her hair down. The wild shenanigans Lee would try to pull, sometimes with Gai’s assistance because he thinks it’s hilarious and a good way for the team to bond. Neji’s only there because Lee dragged him into it, totally not because he wants to see her with her hair down, no sir. He’s not curious about it at all (he is, he just likes lying to himself). Meanwhile, Tenten knows all and dodges their attempts with ease and fond exasperation. Of course this only makes them try harder, even enlisting the help of some of the rookie nine at one point.

Eventually Tenten takes pity on her teammates and lets herself “get caught” by one of their traps and when they see her with her hair down, Neji and Lee are taken aback by how beautiful she is (like she was pretty already, but with her hair down, DAMN). and when Lee tells her this in his usual enthusiastic manner, with Neji quietly agreeing, Tenten goes beet red and gets uncharacteristically bashful because nobody’s ever called her beautiful before.

all of that being said, her teammates think she’s infinitely more beautiful when she’s on the battlefield with blood on her face and weapons in her hands (with her hair in her characteristic twin buns, of course).
