[filtered AWAY from Master Van]

[Luke faces the camera with a somewhat serious expression as he sits on his couch, hands clasped as he rests his elbows on his knees. It's a contemplative pose. There's something unreadable in his eyes, sadness mixed with determination.]

Good morning... [He wavers a bit, some of his inner awkward showing through.

It's probably been tried before, but that might have been a while ago.

I couldn't find anything about it. You're the first person who's said anything.

[cursed_ninja]

About it being tried before? I wasn't referring to your plan specifically but either way, I can provide my help for this.

I meant trying to break out at all. Maybe... no one's been successful before.

Whatever the case, we need all the people we can get. Can you help with channeling energy, or just the fighting part? It's probably stretching it to ask for both, but...

[cursed_ninja]

I don't think so either, maybe your plan for breaking out might be different though--

[cursed_ninja]

Channeling energy? In what sense?

Both might be possible for me.

Hopefully.

[He glances at his notebook.]

I'm going to divert part of the shield temporarily. I'll need support to keep the spell from backfiring. If that means some kind of magic glyph or from your hands, it's all the same.

I'll provide the conduit.

From the various ninjutsu and genjutsu I know, that shouldn't be a problem.

[chosenfake]

Ninj... uh, right. I'd really appreciate the help. What's your name?

[cursed_ninja]

Uchiha Sasuke.

Thanks. [He jots down some notes, then smiles faintly at the device.] I'm Luke, if you didn't catch that.

I'll let you know when the big preparations are complete, and then you'll have some time to take care of things before we leave.
