Equal time is a trap for Shukaku. Combat time is FAST. Sexytimes is slow. Any fight we're using Shukaku for more than 5 minutes is a total FUBAR

.... and that doesn't sound like a reason not to let him have our body right off the bat to you?
Imagine what happens if he decides he'd prefer blood to sake at some point.
EDIT: Hell this doesn't even have to end in Shukaku betraying us to royally screw things. Letting it use our body inside the village without approval from the higher ups could well constitute treason.

Trusting Shukaku isn't going to end well not at this point anyway honestly a different angle may be required though i doubt it will go anywhere either we don't have much to offer Shukaku without risk of losing to much
He mentioned relieving tension by fighting and that is pretty much all we can offer him he gets a chance to blow off some steam and we get a power up, not voting just putting the idea out there

So I know there's two votes for Veekie's, but I just wanna make sure there is a consensus since discussion was going on. I'll give it til tomorrow and if nothing changes I'll update.

[x] You know what else is a two way street Shukaku? Trust, right now we have little reason to trust each other so all i can offer you is the chance to get out and blow off some steam every now and then. Maybe once we can build up some trust we can come to some terms more agreeable for you... but for now that is all i can offer.
Arc 1: Chapter 7 (Content Warning: Shukaku)
"Okay..." you sighed, then you inhaled deeply. You felt disgusted, but perhaps this is the only way. "I'll cooperate. For as long as I need your direct power, I shall give you an equal amount of time using my body for whatever you wish. But only if it's safe and private and if nothing permanent happens. No pregnancies, diseases, crimes, or ruining any of my relationships. How does that sound?"
Shukaku's grin suddenly turned into a frown. He gave you a furious look and gruffly said, "Do you think I'm a dumb-ass or something?"
"What?" you replied, confused.
"Yeah, you'll let me use your body equally? No you fuckin' won't! If I play along, you'll just use my power and I won't get shit! Your sweet words are about as salty as my jizz! Don't think you can pull the wool over my eyes, you fuckin' worthless whore!" Shukaku shrieked, pure rage in his voice. "Trust me, I know when I'm getting fucked, and you're trying to go balls deep in me!"
You didn't respond, but Shukaku did make a point. Why would he trust you? In fact, why would you ever trust him with your body? He would most likely take control and never let go! Of course you didn't quite think the deal would end there, but seeing Shukaku so enraged almost kept you quiet.
Almost.
"Listen here you disgusting demon, it's my body, so my rules! If you don't let me control your power freely then-"
"Then fuckin' what? I may be trapped in here, but there's abso-fuckin-lutely nothing you can do. Get the fuck outta here, I ain't giving you shit. Come back when you either wanna show me your tits or actually give me a deal to think on!"
Before you could say a word, the violent sandstorm suddenly grew bigger, the powerful winds blowing you away! It was then your eyes snapped open and you were back in the real world. You groaned in annoyance as a throbbing headache became known. You sat up, annoyed at the total waste of time that was.
Well, you still have an entire day ahead of you. What will you do?

[X] Practice your sand control. Vent at the desert.
Arc 1: Chapter 8
Usually, you could easily brush off anything anyone threw at you. But Shukaku was different, that damned demon was so gross and horrible...it just drove you over the edge! With an annoyed sigh, you went out of the village (after getting the okay from the guards of course) and began to vent. You threw large amounts of sand around, created various sculptures before smashing them back into sand, and overall just let loose any negative emotion at the desert.
Once you were done, you were drenched with sweat, but you felt much better after all of that. You gulped in a breath of air but it was then that you noticed someone floating in the air near you. Turning around, you saw a man with spiky red hair with deep black rings around his eyes, similar to yours. He had a large jug on his back and he watched you calmly.
"I noticed you practicing while I was on the cliffs," the man said, his voice calm and controlled. "You must also be one of Shukaku's Jinchuriki."
It took you moment to connect the dots. "Ah. Nice to meet you, Gaara. Kinda weird we've never met before, heh."
"I suppose. We haven't had much reason," Gaara replied. "So, what are you doing out here? I know I said you were practicing but the way you moved was very violent."
"Tch...I was venting. There's only one damn thing that could make me so pissed," you growled.
"Shukaku?" Gaara correctly guessed. You nodded and he crossed his arms. "He is a wild beast, even a fragment of him can cause such disturbance, hm?"
"Yeah, you got that right. Have you figured out anything? Like, to deal with him?" you asked. You felt silly for asking someone younger than you about such an issue, but he was the only other person you could talk too, barring the Jinchuriki who held him before you did. But you had no idea where he could be.
"I don't," Gaara answered plainly. "He might be the reason I have power over sand, but its my own power. I cannot depend on him to help me. So I ignore him. Try as he might, he cannot do more than bother me in my dreams."
"I know trying to team with him is a really bad idea, but I need the strength. The last battle I was in...if he didn't help, I would be enslaved. I'm sickened I had to depend on him, but..."
"I understand. Tell me, why do you want to control his power so badly?" Gaara asked. Despite his age, he felt very wise and sagely. You knew he was being groomed to be the Fifth Kazekage and you were seeing exactly why.
"It's for the Sand Empire. I'm sure you know as well as anyone that the Sand is on the weaker end in this world war. If it wasn't for this desert, we may have fallen long ago. I love this village. I love my empire! That's why I am willing to do anything to protect it, even if it means working with Shukaku."
"That is very admirable. What we have in us...is a vast source of power. But it comes at a cost. Tell me Nou, do you feel like you're weak?"
"Huh? Hell no! I just want more power. The protect the empire I love!" you exclaimed.
"I see. Just be careful that this power doesn't corrode you. Power is addicting, and it can lead to ruin," Gaara muttered, looking at you seriously.
"I know that! But no matter how much I train, I don't get any stronger. I've stalled out! That's why I've been so focused on Shukaku, he can..." you trailed off.
"Give you more power instantly," Gaara sighed, finishing your sentence. "Nou...I want to spar with you."
"Huh? Why?" you asked, confused.
"Show me how strong you are, show me your determination to protect the Sand!"
"...Fine! You want to see my power? I'll show you the power of one of the Desert Three!" you exclaimed. Gaara gave you a smirk as the two of you flew a distance away from you. A trail of sand began to flow out of Gaara's jug and formed a hazy cloud over him.
What will you do?

[X] Lift off the ground immediately with Desert Suspension, then strike with Dance of the Drilling Sand, aiming to hit from Gaara's flanks. Once Gaara's defenses have shifted to cover those more strongly, then hammer down the weakened center with Godly Wind from the Mountains
