Prompt 22- dying
“You know what grey hair means right?”
Sakumo shakes his head, wide curious eyes staring up at the other. Is it the mark of some clan he’s never heard of? A predictor he’ll finally stop being taller than everyone his age at some point? But the neighbor boy has other ideas.
“You’re gonna die young!” He laughs, spreading his arms wide in mock congratulations.
“What?! No no nononono-”
It takes nearly twenty minutes of careful reassurances from Inaka before her six year old finally calms down and toddles (albeit reluctantly) back over to play with Kurou from next door. She sighs. She’s not sure it’s a good thing there’s still a six year old underneath that ‘genius intellect’ the academy teachers keep going on about.
