[ What's that you hear? A large New Yorker teeing off in random areas of town? ]

FORE!

[ Yes. Yes, it is.

Casey Jones, in a fit of stir-insanity (the step beyond crazy), has decided now is the time to give golf just one more chance to prove its- its not-boring-ness to him. As such, he can be found most anywhere today- or, alternatively, golf ( Read more... )

[Minato's walking around, minding his own business, when there's suddenly a projectile flying towards the side of his head. He glances at it quickly.

Of course, he could dodge it easily, but this is an opportunity too good to pass up. Instead of dodging, he turns towards the ball, and lets it bounce harmlessly off the metal plate of his forehead protector and catches it.

See? That's why they're called forehead protectors.

He peers at the golf ball curiously, wondering what it is, before looking for its source.]

[ He shall find it in the form of Casey. ]

Headgear, huh? Good move.

[ About time someone caught on to the best solution :| ]

[Minato laughs a bit, reaching up to hold the metal part of his forehead protector.]

Gotta use it when I can! Don't normally get the opportunity.

[He lets go of it and holds up the golf ball with his other hand.] So what's this, anyways?

[:| Well, Minato was universally regarded as a genius ninja....]

That, my friend, is a golf ball. Not the greatest sport out there, but it seemed like a good time to give it a chance.

So the object of the game is to hit as many objects and people as you can?

[Minato sounds incredibly amused.]

Uh, no. That's just kinda how it ended up going, is all.

[ Casey uses Sports Nut! ] See, usually you got all your players on the same course- there are eighteen holes and you're supposed to get the ball into 'em without havin' to hit it too many times. And so it ain't too easy, there are obstacles set up on the way. Sand pits, rough patches, water, that kind of thing.

...not really my thing, though. [ Eheh. ]

[Minato's brows wrinkle. He looks... well, confused.]

... Baseball and soccer are a lot easier to understand. It almost sounds like you're playing on a more peaceful form of the Forest of Death.

[Those sports exist in his world, at least.

Also, obstacles in Minato's mind are obviously a lot more dangerous. He's thinking "traps", "giant monsters", and "quicksand", among other things.]

Way easier. Lot more interestin', too.

[ Curious. ] Forest of Death, huh? Sounds pretty ominous with a name like that.

And with an emphasis on teamwork.

[Minato nods, then grins.] It's not exactly a place you want to take a leisurely stroll in, no. Lots of poisonous, gigantic animals. [His voice lightens a bit, almost sounding amused.] It's actually a training ground.

[ Grinning back. ] Hey, what's the fun if just one guy's hoggin' all the glory?

[ ...whut. ] Jeez, trainin' for what?

[Minato likes the way you think. Here, have a grin.] Exactly. I've always liked team sports the best.

[Minato shrugs.] Last I heard from my son, it was used as a setting for one of the examinations of the Chuunin exams. ... Which probably means absolutely nothing to you, now that I think of it.

Makes two of us. Name's Casey Jones, glad to meet ya.

... Yeah, not ringin' any bells. Sorry.

Minato Namikaze. [Your name doesn't sound Japanese. He's learned to reverse it in those cases, now.]

[Little chuckle.] No problem. I'm pretty sure there aren't many from my world here.

[ Nods. ] Kinda good, kinda bad, huh?

[A happy shrug.] Both good and bad, yes. Those I have met are those who have never met me, so it's interesting to play "catch up" and see how the village has been.

I kinda like havin' everyone on the same page, myself. Keeps things from gettin' too outta hand.
