hands! Hands in the air! Who even knows it isn't her!
Like, to begin, despite his...Sasuke-ness, she does actually like him, for more reasons than just half-remembering that she knows him. He's not always unpleasant, or at least not always in her direction. So. In general her impression of Sasuke is positive, despite his best efforts I'm sure.
In the specific she feels very back and forth and confused about him, right now. She was sort of touched, for like half a second, that he would have named her in the body-swap thing, before she remembered it was probably just lack of options. When she lets herself feel ridiculous and soppy about it it's still a little touching though. But then like I said before, their complete failure at coming up with a bond, or anything even currently relevant, was like... sad. Pathetically sad, really. And she was like "okay, he pushes me away but it turns out I don't have anything to say about him either, I guess? Maybe I really should just stop trying to be his friend because wow check us out, we're clearly awesome at it 8|"
But then he sort of immediately turned around and saved her life. And again, in the practical sense she knows that he's a Knight and probably would have saved anyone he found being attacked -- but in soppy Feelings land she's really touched again. And he didn't even berate her for being out, afterwards, which she found really surprising. He was just kind of... pleasantly neutral.
Sasuke is completely unsure of what he should do with Sakura but he can't exactly push her away properly because he can't give her reasons. Then Sakura is acting very different to how he remembers her! You need to consider that he only remembers her from before the time-skip, so her attitude clashes somewhat from what he expects her to be. That's why Sasuke said "not precisely" during the bodyswitch, because he said "Sakura" not "Tsunami." The distinction is very important in Sasuke's mind.
He dislikes Turquoise and he hates that Sakura is training with Riful because he doesn't trust Riful or likes her much, but he's not talking about that again due for obvious reasons. He prefers if Itachi helps her, because Sasuke will never stop thinking that it's better if he tries to keep his distance from her. AS MUCH AS HE CAN. He does think it's good she is trying to learn and get stronger.
IN GENERAL IDK SASUKE WISHES SAKURA WOULD STOP THINKING HE IS NICE.
Yeah, if she knew he'd said Sakura she'd be a bit :|a about it because she has explicitly chosen Tsunami as her name and asked people who knew both to call her that (though I don't think Sasuke has ever called her by name to her face so she doesn't really know which he'd use). The distinction is important to her, too. The only person (that she knows of) who calls her Sakura is Naruto.
Sakura is training with Itachi now! and Neji and Katou and like four other people idk
Sasuke will keep avoiding saying her name forever. It's what he did with Naruto for like two ICly weeks.
AND HE'D PRETEND NARUTO WAS NEVER HERE!!! STUPID NARUTO WHO TOLD HIM HE COULD LEAVE WHILE I WAS TRYING TO SHUN HIM FROM MY LIFE. But seriously . . . Naruto tends to be the one that gets through him the most so idk. Mithos and Lloyd might become more important to him, I guess.
She'll be sad! She doesn't know Naruto very well, really, but her first memory was of him and her being all super buddy buddy and she'll be kind of regretful she never got to find out more about that. And, she hasn't been here long enough for anyone she knows to leave before, so that would be unbalancing all on it's own. Likely she'll continue to feel worse about him being gone the more memories she gets of him, mostly out of that sense of regret that this is someone who mattered and now he's gone. There was a hole here, it's gone now
Eventually of-interest to Sakura -- how much of her incredible crush does Sasuke remember? >->a
HE REMEMBERS SAYING GOODBYE TO SAKURA WHEN HE WAS LEAVING KONOHA. YOU KNOW, THAT TIME WHEN SHE CONFESSED HIS LOVE TO HIM? So yeah, he is very aware of her feelings. He also remembers Sakura trying to protect him from Gaara, remembers her Sakura crying over him when Haku almost "killed" him and stuff like that. Those are the most important ones I guess.
ALSO YES, SASUKE IS RIDICULOUS AND TOO EMOTIONAL. It's funny because he actually needs the massacre back and more sig negs to be better about killing his feelings (and only keep those that matter to him). Right now he just tries very hard but it's not. controlled at all.
Sakura's opinion of Team 7 or there isn't enough for that yet?
Okay well at least he has meaningful things and not like... all the times she basically just stood around making :D face at him because ~Sasuke-kun~
she's going to get the memory of how she grew her hair out specifically because she heard Sasuke liked that and be like...f-face in hands...
Sadly atm she doesn't even know that Team Seven is a thing, except that Naruto briefly mentioned it to her. Enough that she knows the three of them were on a team, but Team Seven -- and all the things those two words mean -- doesn't have any weight for her right now.
