As a young, pretty girl, Kurenai never lacks for admirers. You are a princess, they say, eyes shining as they sing odes to her hair, her eyes, the structure of her face. They gaze upon her with reverence and when she bundles her hair up for practicality’s sake, they look aghast and plead, “Let down your hair, Kurenai, let down your hair.” Kurenai always acquiesces—she is, after all, a young lady of good and noble breeding.
(She repeats this phrase like a desperate wish each time she remembers that for all her snow white skin and rose red eyes, her parents died not fighting the dire threat of the Kyuubi but from the dire threat of starvation.)
