"You are approaching an age at which many humans find their ability to learn to like new music attenuates unless they put serious work into it!"

"I'll try to listen to some, then."

"Here!" Cam hands him a music player with headphones attached. "Society of Hellish Curators Essential Musical Survey of All Time. Make a note when you like something and there'll be lots more where that came from."

"Thanks. I'll try to find some by tomorrow."

Wag wag.

"I'll email you before the surgery; I'm wide open tomorrow, though. Morning might be better, so I don't have to fast very long."

"That's as good a consideration as any other. I'll mark it down in my increasingly ridiculous calendar."

"Clones do make things complicated."

"In a great way though."

"Naruto's clones don't know what the others are even doing half the time, unless he bugs Kurama."

"He's using them differently than I use mine and that's fine."

He nods. "He's focusing more on learning, I think."

"Meanwhile, I've never been so caught up on my reading and it's not even eating into my nicen-up-Snow-infrastructure time!"

"I should probably try to build up my chakra enough to use them non-tactically..."

"I wish there were a straightforward way to just donate you some."

"Supposedly the Rinnegan can steal it, but I don't know how that interacts with an infinite source."

"Don't know like would have to test or don't know like wouldn't dare?"

"Would have to test. Worst thing that happens would probably be a bit of overload on my part."

"Is that actually no big deal or is it a thing that does not seem like a big deal for ninja reasons."

"Mild forms are no big deal, though I don't like the sensation. It's actually a big deal medically if you somehow got severe overload."

"I sort of feel like my question has not been truly answered but all right."

"It's usually compared to hysteria or mania or the results of some kind of psychoactive drugs, mentally, and to adrenaline physically. Prolonged or severe cases can cause cardiac arrest."

"Okay."

He nods. "Unpleasant, but not usually fatal."

"And if it works fine it'll be so convenient."
