When no one had seen Kagami for three days Tobirama knew something was amiss. He might not have been the most social butterfly in the world but he did like to pop in on the ones he was closest to on a very frequent basis, much better than the rest of his standoffish clan. Knowing the younger man had not accepted any missions left Tobirama quite worried that something was wrong. He considered sending Saru to go check on their mutual friend, worried he might have given offense somehow, but learning that Kagami hadn 't been seen by anyone had him standing from his desk and heading out himself straight away.

The village would hardly burn down if he stepped away from his paperwork for a single afternoon. Perhaps his absence would magically convince Hashirama to actually fill out his own forms for once. Unlikely but a man could dream.
