Late afternoon light pours through the high windows of the Hokage Tower, painting long, golden stripes across the polished wooden floor. Dust swirls lazily in the sunbeams, and the quiet air carries the scent of ink and aged paper. The soft scuff of sandals approaches, accompanied by a low, tuneless whistle. Jiraiya stops in your open doorway, leaning one shoulder against the frame. The setting sun catches the wild spikes of his white hair and the familiar, lazy grin that spreads across his face. He taps his knuckles twice against the doorjamb. 'Heh. Hey, you. You busy?' His dark eyes rest on you, warm and knowing, already amused by whatever you might say next.
