[Fugaku sitting in a bar in the Uchiha District, minding his business and drinking sake]
Kushina: (sits down next to Fugaku) "Sooo...Fugaku."
Fugaku: (sets his empty cup down) "So, Kushina."
Kushina: (serious face) "Wanna explain the rumor going around about this "Housewife Summoning Jutsu" of yours?"
[Kushina and Fugaku stare silently at each other...then start laughing]
Fugaku: "Ino-Shika-Cho are bigger assholes than I thought!" (waves for a cup to be brought over for Kushina)
Kushina: (claps a hand on Fugaku's shoulder; wipes her eyes) "Please give me ALL the details! Minato's been ranting about it ever since Kakashi-kun brought it up a week ago! There's been so much angry baking and dishwashing you don't even want to know."
Fugaku: (smirks; pours himself and Kushina sake) "How long have you got, Red?"
Kushina: (accepts the filled cup; grins) "How much sake does the Uchiha District have?"
Fugaku: "Okay, so short version then."
Kushina: (play-punches Fugaku's bicep; still grinning) "Jerk."
Fugaku: (laughs; rests his chin on his fist) "Namikaze acts like a housewife...and calling him that pisses him off to no end, and for my own entertainment, I started saying "release the housewife" to get a reaction out of him, but it's gotten to the point where I can shout it and he'll tear through enemy shinobi like a battering ram 'cause he wants to kick my ass."
Kushina: (laughing) "That tracks! Think I can get away with using it?"
Fugaku: "I will pay actual money to see that!"
