I don't. Not with anyone...at least not at the moment.
[That seems more like the Neji she's familiar with, and she just flashes him a brief smile upward before batting right back at Riolu's paws, then trying to give Meditite a reassuring pat on the head.]

no subject
Yeah, if you'll let me. We're still teammates after all, right? Now that Naruto's awake, we can figure out where we're going, too.
