Oki nodded and let the hand go. "Just making sure."

Good god did this man ever make him feel pissed. He bristled at how he talked to her, but kept his mouth shut least he be chastised again...

"Suoh?" Oki said calmly. "Piss off. Please."
Oki was used to Suoh being a smart ass, but she wasn't particularly enjoying it. He'd be taciturn now, but want to cuddle later, and she wasn't impressed with the knowledge.
"Suoh had a point about villages looking after ninja students, Ryo," she said softly. "If you were interested, I could help you get enrolled at the academy, help see you get set up with a stipend for groceries and an apartment so you didn't have to worry."

Finally she was having a good idea! Put the kid to use, let him make something of himself... It would be better for him than the coddling Oki was trying to give him.

"Huh?" Ryo blinked in confusion. Had he heard right? "Who, what?" He gaped and looked between the two of them before slowly lifting a hand to point at himself. "A ninja? Me? Are you kidding?" It if wasn't hinged to his face, he thought his jaw may hit the ground.

"You're fast on your feet and you're smart," Oki encouraged. "It would be good for you, I think, to pick up some discipline and to do something productive with yourself. You'd have a place to live, not have to worry about food, and it would be a job for you when you finished with school. That is, if you wanted to."

"You think they'd take him? He's not from this village."

Ryo gulpped. Still in shell shock he dumbly nodded at Oki. He knew he was pretty quick, but nobody had ever called him smart before. He'd never even thought about having a future and here she was offering him one? Why was she doing this...?
He slumped a bit tho at Suoh's comment. He was right, why would they take someone not from the village?

"They took me. And Yuki, and Cirrus, and that's just a few of the genins from my class alone. He'd have to swear loyalty to the Hokage and the village, but they'd let him. I'd take him in my class," Oki replied.

Suoh shrugged. "If you want him, then..."

Ryo had absolutley no idea what to say. They were really going to let him stay and be a ninja? It would be really wierd to have to stay and be loyal to one place, but he could always give it a try...
He raised a curious eyebrow at Oki. "Really? You're serious about this?"

"Only if you are," she replied. "But this means you have to behave yourself, because this is my reputation on the line, too, if I vouch for you. No more stealing."

Suoh still thought this wasn't one of Oki's better ideas, but it was her call. The kid would be her problem.

Ooh, that would take some consideration. He had to admit that he liked stealing... But maybe being a ninja would be fun too? And he could certainly find other things to do too surely. "No stealing? Like at all, or just in the village..?" He'd never had anyone even want to vouch for him before.
