No. I assure you, Katsura-kun... I am not currently an infant.
[He says that without any sarcasm at all. But he does feel unnerved now by Elizabeth's stare. He feels like his soul is being exposed to her, and he feels the weight of judgement for every mistake or wrongdoing he's ever taken part in throughout his life.
He feels so insignificant in the grand scheme of things...]
Ah, well. I am glad you two can finally be acquainted! Elizabeth, this is Lee— he has been a good companion for me to talk to here. We had a very touching Christmas together.
[ Elizabeth raises a sign: "It's not to meet you, Lee-san— Has your hair always been that way?" ]
It was indeed a very special Christmas, for bonds between young men! Ah... My hair has always been similar to this, but it was longer when I was younger! As a child, I had my hair in a braid!
A-ah... [He's not so used to toilet humor, so he's caught off guard for the moment.] I... never considered that. No, that is not the reason!
The reason is... Gai-Sensei!! That is the hair style which he championed. I wanted to endeavor to be strong like Gai-Sensei, so I followed his ways in looks as well as in fighting style!!
[ Zura gets this. His looks model after his sensei too. ] Has he ever complimented you for it..? It is a ridiculous hair cut. [ He is just being honest, bro. ]
Gai-Sensei has complimented me for so many things! [He sniffles as he remembers the man. He can't remember if Gai-Sensei ever complimented him for the hair specifically, but still.]
Thank you for your opinion, Katsura-kun!! I intend to keep sporting this hair, no matter how many opinions there may be!

Ah! Katsura-kun! H-hello! It is... the way of the ninja as well!
A fever? [He shakes his head quickly, embarrassed.] N-no, this is just... something that occurs during one's youth! It is natural... no need to worry!

Katsura reaches over, placing the back of his palm against Lee's forehead. ]
.... Are you ... too youthful, then?
[ Meanwhile Eli continues to watch Rock Lee, practically peering into his soul.
Lee can probably feel it. ]

Is it Elizabeth? Are you charmed by her charisma, is that what it is?
[ Katsura even looks over at Elizabeth when he is talking about him.
"He must have a good kind of taste—" ]
no subject
Y-yes. I apologize if this is an awkward situation. Elizabeth-san... is- is certainly more charming than I imagined. [He offers a humble bow.]

Why the hell would you cut it?"
Zura also questions this. Why one Earth? ]
Lee-san, would your hair get caught in the toilet too when you try to poop and that is why?
