¯\_(ツ)_/¯

You can make first post.
Orochimaru begins facing his opponent at short range, his sword of kusanagi interred in the child of gravel inside his body. He waits patiently for combat to begin. For when a snake's territory is invaded, it avoids the trespasser by coiling up or retreating. It never initiates an assault. His center of gravity low, as he utilizes the snake style. Distinguished by circular movement when delivering parries and attacks, snake style employs an upright, mobile stance as opposed to the horse stance used by most other styles. This mobile stance enables quick advances and sidestepping. Since snake stylists are taught to spring from rest to full attack, they do not use preparatory stances. Snake stylists rely on rapid, alternating jabs as well as bobbing and weaving to evade counterattacks. Orochimaru focuses his breathing in to a rhythmic pattern, staring his opponent down as his body sways slightly side to side, almost as though he was attempting to hypnotize him.

OOC: I assume I may use Kusanagi if you intend to use weaponry, if not it'll just remain inside me.

Reference:
(Kuchiyose No Jutsu: Tsuchinoko) - Summoning technique: Child Of Gravel
Type: Supplementary
Rank: B
Range: Short-Long
Chakra: 20
Damage: N/A
Description: In Japanese folklore, the Tsuchinoko, literally translating to "child of hammer" or "child of gravel", is a snake-like being. The name tsuchinoko is prevalent in Western Japan, including Kansai and Shikoku; the creature is known as bachi hebi in Northeastern Japan. Tsuchinoko are described as being between 30 and 80 centimetres in length, similar in appearance to a snake, but with a central girth that is much wider than its head or tail, and as having fangs and venom similar to that of a viper it's bite causing paralysis for one turn taking effect the turn the bite is delivered. According to legend, some tsuchinoko have the ability to speak and a propensity for lying, and they are also said to have a taste for alcohol. Legend records that it will sometimes swallow its own tail so that it can roll like a hoop, similarly to the mythical hoop snake. Tsuchinoko are a popular basis for popular culture in Japan. Orochimaru was the first to discover this unique snake summoning a smaller resident of the Ryuchi cave. One of the few snakes capable of speaking in human tongue this summoning swiftly became a personal favorite of Orochimaru, choosing to use it as a replacement for the snake interred in his body that holds his sword of Kusanagi. The Tsuchinoko is capable of using earth techniques up to B rank not needing to make handseals to do so. Additionally the snake is capable of using the transformation technique to take on the appearance of a human being. Allowing for subterfuge and trickery. This summoning has jet black scales with white ventral banding.

Note: If used by Orochimaru the snake does not need to be summoned instead it just needs to be posted for reference as being interred in his body at the start of the fight. Emerging from his mouth counts as move and once summoned lasts up to 4 turns being able to be summoned once.
Note: This may be used by anyone who has the snake contract but only Orochimaru can have it interred in his body. This snake can use snake ninjutsu and jutsu that pertain to Orochimaru and his sword.
Note: May only be taught by Jhin

Sure that's fine.

As a gently breeze flew by— Sasori stood upright in his main body. He stood in content with everything around him, harmonizing with his surroundings. For the most part Sasori stood stationary without moving for what could have been hours. The serene beauty was ideal up until the moment Sasori spotted a familiar/peculiar man in the distance that continued to walk towards Sasori until he was only a few meters away. It wasn't until this “man” was directly in front of him that he instantly recognized him and memories of who he was began to flood his mind. “Orochimaru” he said with disgust. Not once during his time of being affiliated with the creature in front of him had he had ever gotten along with him. “ I'll finally get to finish you off once and for all.” Sasori spoke with a small smirk across his face as he readied himself to engage his adversary. Knowing that his enemy laid within range of Close Quarters Combat— which was his specialty he figured that he would take advantage of the situation by using the range to his advantage. ( First strike is yours)

Finish me off, Sasori? Come now didn't you hear what happens to little wooden men who lie, their noses grow.

Orochimaru said with a cocky smirt as he maintained his stance, he was almost coiled though it was not obvious to the opponent he merely continued to sway like a snake, his arms loose at his side. But his entire body ready to attack the moment an opportunity presented itself. Which would happen sooner than expected it seemed, watching his opponent stay motionless he followed the eye movements of the man hoping it would give away his target. It seemed to indicate from his line of sight that he was simply preparing a counter attack, perhaps fear had seized his plyboard brain. But he had overextended himself by remaining so passive and unprepared. Normally this situation would call for a plan on Orochimaru's part but with his opponents desire for battle so unsure and seeming to make no motions, Orochimaru would instead engage.

So a different approach would be possibly favorable. Instead of moving back or planning, Orochimaru would make a diagonal half step towards the left stepping to the opponents side while his arm is still down by his side, the white snake coils itself around its prey. Using his counter striking style to wrap up his opponent's arm. Wrapping up the opponents arm at the elbow by rotating Orochimaru's right arm counterclockwise around his opponents arm and then grabbing onto his clothing up by the shoulder. This traps him in place potentially, leaving Orochimaru free to point the tips of his left hand in to a snake like entity, his fingers acting like a point almost as he attempts to thrust his hand in to the elbow joint of the opponent attempting to strike the exposed Ulnar nerve, when this nerve is damaged it's usually referred to as hitting the funny bone, being struck with this degree of force would likely cause the mans arm to go numb. However Sasori's unique body prevented such traditional forms of nerve paralysis. Yet Orochimaru firmly believed that to have the level of human mobility Sasori sought from his puppet form, he would have needed to create articulation joints in similar places to human ones, thus Orochimaru's strike should still damage the arm of the puppet inhibiting the mobility of his arm by possibly breaking the articulation joints.

Capitalizing on this Orochimaru would slide his right leg behind the puppeteers left and twist his hips throwing the man to the ground with a tripping motion attempting to land him with force on the back of his head before retreating a few steps and adopting the same swaying motion as before. The throw is based on the major outer reaping throw in which you step close to the outside of your opponent's foot you push your opponent off balance to the rear corner while holding him/her close. Your other leg then sweeps the opponent's leg out from under him/her using your body as a single lever motivated by pelvic action.

Haha, the fearsome Sasori of the red sand, if only the world knew the truth about you as I do. You're just a foolish boy who never outgrew his dolls.
