Where Lee was oblivious, Neji was acutely aware of himself and the things around him. More specifically, the people around him and their perceptions and expectations. There might've been no one to watch, but he was still conscious of the weight of those expectations.
So Neji straightened with a nod and took a step back, looking around and feigning another sweep of their immediate surroundings he already had a mental layout of. But there was very little to be seen with regular vision, and he was grateful that they had Clairvoyance to avoid being surprised by anything. Veins slid back to his eyes and opened the world back up to him as he sweeping over snow fields, trees, and abandoned buildings to catalogue the nearest threats.
Sucking in a cold breath, Neji forgot all about the pervading self-consciousness, and hopes instead that Lee's confidence was more than sheer optimism.
"A corrupted soul, roughly 450 meters northeast, stationary for the moment. Two wolves heading down the slope at 300 meters and closing."
