"Tsunade thinks you take a lot after her, actually," Jiraiya stated with a grin. "Or, at least your mouth does. And probably your personality, too. A real tomboy when she was young."

"Although being pregnant with you calmed her down a lot," Jiraiya chuckled. "Minato was worried that all of her energy was being siphoned into the kid. You were loud even as a newborn, so I guess he was right."

It was easier now, to take about it; even still, Jiraiya's grin weakened as he continued, his voice a bit quieter. "You were luckily asleep the time I got to hold you. ... And then you woke up a few minutes later just to barf on me."

Jiraiya realized he was rambling, and looked embarrassed. Wow, he really was getting old.
