#and kakashi just nods solemly

why every single member of team 7 is absolutely intolerable (apart from the obvious), shippuden era

as a follow-up to this post, here are my thoughts on why the slightly older but not much more mature members of shippuden-era team 7 make everyone else want to leave them

naruto

- is oddly defensive and touchy about the fact that he needs an inhaler after sasuke pulverised his right lung, finds it embarrassing to carry around

- if he has something to do in the afternoon, he cannot do anything before or after. he is unavailable. his schedule is completely clear and yet totally filled up for the rest of the day

- no indoor voice

- still very much “but iruka-sensei SAID --”, but now he sometimes follows it up with things iruka-sensei never said (has done this in front of iruka, too)

- once he starts knocking, he will not stop until the door is open

sakura

- does the debby ryan radio rebel face thing

- asks people about their lives only in the hopes that they’ll ask back and give her the chance to endlessly talk about herself

- takes 1.5 hours to finish eating an apple

- often speaks unintelligibly fast

- very big on what she calls “experimenting”, which is just mixing up different chemicals she finds in the hospital to see which combination smells worst

sasuke

- thinks saying sentences out loud is beneath him, prefers to communicate via looks and attempted telepathy, gets angry when it doesn’t work

- constantly attempts to gaslight his friends into believing that what he said was right, even if they all know they were right and he was objectively wrong

- his cuticles are always bleeding, it’s concerning but honestly just a little gross

- will ignore people that are standing right in front of him and speaking directly in his face if he’s not in the mood (has done this to kabuto)

- disastrously confrontational, always ready for an argument

sai

- believes several highly improbable conspiracies, will talk about them endlessly and with a very serious look on his face if you even hint at being interested

- berates and admonishes people for “the state [they] live in”, ie the shoes on their shoe rack aren’t perfectly straight

- tells people if they have a resting bitch face

- steps on people’s toes on purpose (literally and figuratively) just to see how they react

- draws the most revolting things he can possibly think of (think junji ito typa body horror shit) and shows them to people while they’re eating

- “that’s what she said”

- considers mint and vinegar ‘spicy’

kakashi

- “when i was your age” to people tenzou’s age

- flat out refuses to get new clothing unless it is more than 70% destroyed, always dressed like a hobo

- gives people that are lost wrong directions

- told sai that “that’s what she said” is a valuable contribution to any conversation

tenzou

- makes roots bulge out of the ground a little to trip people up

- compares everything to some random obscure soap opera he watches

- asks vegans and vegetarians why it is that they don’t think plants have feelings, very passionate about their answers

- is the primary source for all the lies that spread about what is under kakashi’s mask

EDIT: part 3 here!
