Aww, the little girl takes as a fact that Neji is going to win his fight.
tbh, Neji's pretty frikkin badass. He's no Itachi, then again no one's an Itachi, but he's really good.

He checked off a lot of the "I'm about to get my ass kicked by the Hero" check-boxes and he still damn near won the match in canon. Naruto had to rely on the Kyuubi to pull his ass out of a loss in that match.
 
[X] Try the Konoha Archive. As a genin, you'd normally need special permission for sensitive information, but the rules are somewhat laxer during the Exams.
-[X] Stunt: Tenten steps into the unsurprisingly deserted Archives, the more senior shinobi no doubt occupied with the recent events, and most of the Genin simply doubling down on their training. She catches sight of a flash of pink hair over in a corner as she ponders where to search, "Sakura! I need some help looking up Gaara's abilities. Think you could help?"
[X] Sacrifice some training time to tracking him down. (Will not completely finish Dipping Swallow Defense this week.)
 
Well, Gaara didn't quite put the pieces together fast enough to want to kill you before Temari realize what was going to happen when he did. And you rolled social well enough to keep him from immediately trying to kill you regardless. So he's probably going to try to kill you eventually when he figures out you broke his sister's jaw.
ehmm, Gaara's a good brother if this is why he wants to kill us. wait, slash that he is a good brother if this is why he's going to try to kill us.
 
My god that man's hair is fabulous. I grow ever more convinced that the Hyuuga have some kind of secret ninja hair care technique, because damn.

He needs his own line of hair care products.
Don't you know? For a Hyuuga, keeping their hair fabulous is a necessity. If it were ever to be anything less than perfect, seeing all the snarls and dirt in it would distract them whenever they tried to use the Byakugan.

Thus, the Hyuuga have refined their secret hair care recipes and jutsu over many generations. Release of the knowledge to an outsider is punishable by death. In fact, the caged bird seal was created so that the main branch would be able to kill any branch member instantly if they tried to give the knowledge away; the fact that it sealed the byakugan away upon death was merely a convenient side effect.

-[x]stunt: Practice with Neji. You are on opposite sides of the block and unlikely to fight each other. Besides you know each other fairly well anyway.
 
She's seen Naruto do the fox aura thing before and is very smart to draw the connections, even if not explicitly known or mentioned.
true, but I'm fairly sure she wont remember or make the connections yet (when Naruto beats Neji however, they both will propyl get it).
Also she hasn't seen it yet (on the bridge she didn't see him and in the forest he wasn't leaking the charka of the Ninetails in visible amounts).
 
Rival III

Officially confirmed: Tenten will be known to all and sundry as That Genin with Gonads of Solid Neutronium.
Particularly to the ANBU team that has undoubtedly been trailing Gaara since he murderized Dosu.
For his security of course, to prevent any further attacks on his person:V

I wonder what bets are going around the ANBU office pool at the moment; this is going to be like the third time in two weeks she will have come to their attention. First Dosu and Hayate, then Kin, and now a Random Encounter with The Housetop Eviscerator.
ANBU is presently like "who the fuck is this girl and what the fuck happened...and why did she have to be Maito Gai's student"

Ending up with another high-ranking position on their training leaderboards held by someone who was never even in ANBU would sting.
Actually wonder about the civilians; people ignore them, but they notice more than it would seem, if they know to run when Gaara shows up.
They were already closing up, Gaara just...hurried them along.
Kinda surprised that there isn't an official stipend off sorts for finalists; they are representing the village after all, and one would think the village would want them to concentrate.
Someone's certainly paying for Lee's hospital time.

Or maybe Tenten forgot to read that portion of the paperwork:V
There is, Tenten is just perpetually broke (which is at least partially her fault, because her main hobby of weapon collecting...isn't cheap). Oh, and most genin don't face the kind of expenses she does, or at least have more of a support network than she does.

I think she learned about the Kyuubi at least during the timeskip, I don't know about before.

She didn't know what a jinchuriki was until then, though.

Naruto told her while... I think while they were heading to that bridge where the fight with Orochimaru happened?

I know she didn't know until after the timeskip.

She found out when in route to save Gaara from the Askaski, Kasasi and the old lady of the sand were talking about Naruto and why he was so focused on Saving Gaara.

on a related note..... Considering how the situation is likely to unfold on the day the fights happen well canon fight between Naruto and Neji will happen, then it will skip because Sasaka is going to be late, then the fight between the puppet and bug guys will be skipped because reason's (puppet man want to keep his abilities secret to prevent everyone from seeing it before the attack happens) then we will fight Shikmoarou, which will likely go faster then the fight between him and wind girl in canon/////..... which means Sasaka wont make it in time, correct?

You should really try to get the spelling of the characters' names right.

Anyway, Sasuke didn't make it in time in canon, either. If Shikamaru doesn't manage to drag the match out be several hours against us though, like he did to Temari in canon, the grace time they gave for Sasuke's match might not be enough. It's hard to say, since the reasoning that Orochimaru-as-Kazekage gave to Hiruzen (that a large number of the important people came to the exams specifically to watch that one fight) might still be enough to make it seem worth it.
