[ There is nothing even remotely cheerful in Sasuke's expression as the video clicks on. Far from it. Please, stop watching while you can. ]

I think Sadiq Adnan is attractive. As a male, he is adequate.

That's all.

[ And it clicks off. Helpful hint? A bet has gone awry. ]

I will. I created my own opportunities; you can't wait for them for forever.

[ Be his ally forever. ]

I dunno, some people, all they can do is wait.

[ That's gonna get him in so much trouble. ]

Excuses and nothing else. Don't try to be an idealist. Focus on one goal, one alone, and fight for that.

[ You can establish your own country where Konoha used to be, Hong Kong. ]

The goal is to make sure people don't get hurt.

[ Village Hidden in Skyscrapers, that's all I'm saying. ]

You can't protect every person.

[ Not that Sasuke would ever hurt anyone himself! He's far too innocent. And skyscrapers are legit. ]

I can't stop trying either.

[ Oh, Sasuke. Sasuke, Sasuke, Sasuke. What are we going to do with you? Skyscrapers are the most legit thing in the universe. ]

That's just being greedy, unless you're really that powerful.

Doesn't matter. If they can't protect themselves, I'll do it.

[ He can be his own kind of hero, okay!!! ]

That just makes you sound like an idiot.

Yeah, I guess that's just my lot in life.

Sounding like a fool?

[ That amuses him. ]

No, I meant the other part. But I guess I proved your point a little, didn't I?

No one has the ability to protect everyone. Pipe-dreams, only.

I'm not trying to protect everyone. Just my people. That's just my goal, win or lose.

Good. Then let that remain as your only goal, leaving out the others.

Is that because you think I'd get distracted?

It's because if you spread yourself too thin, you'll fail.

What if you get stronger doing that? Like, maybe you can only be strong if you know how to do a lot of different things.

Trying to learn many skills is not the same as trying to be on many sides.

Yeah, that's true. [ He sort of... frowns. ]

So don't speak like a child would if you know better.

You're seriously harsh sometimes, y'know? I'm not saying I don't appreciate it. In a weird way. But still.

Supporting someone's idea that they can hold onto naive ambitions only to see them destroyed later is harsher.

If nobody had naive ambitions, there'd be tons of people with no ambition at all.

Useless, but harmless.
