Well, tha least I can do is introduce myself now that I poked my head out. Tha name's Lavi, 'm one o'tha patrolmen.

A patrolman? [That piques his curiosity.] What are your duties?
...My name is Gaara.

's somethin Priscilla set up, 'm sure you'll meet her at some point. Mostly walkin 'round tha city 'nd making sure tha monsters stay out. Or breaking up any fights if necessary.
[Hear the grin in his voice?] Nice ta meet ya, Gaara! Well, kinda. Keep messin with tha settin's 'nd I can't do video at tha moment.

A woman with that name has made contact with me. [Oh, he's got Gaara's interest in that.] If there is a need for such services, I can provide assistance as well.
...Likewise, Lavi. [Still suspicious, but Gaara is a leader first, a ninja second, and a civilian, like... fifth or sixth.]
Is your device malfunctioning?

She's real nice, Priscilla~ You can ask'er 'bout it since I think she heads it, or at least makes tha schedules for it. I had ta prove I could handle tha monsters here before I got in.
Yeah, but I know how ta fix it. Haven't gotten 'round to it yet, though. Figured 'd greet ya first.

I will discuss the matter with her. [A short pause.] How did you provide proof?
Mmm. So this device isn't very durable.

Fought one o'tha monsters with'er watchin. Didn't know if I could handle one so backup was nice. Turns out I can.
It is! I just...get bored 'nd tinker.

That is fortunate. You must be a powerful warrior.
...? So you caused it to break?
Reply
Guess so, otherwise one o'my mates from home'd be buggin me ta train more.
I can fix it!
Reply
In his regular tone.] Yes. Naruto is... I consider him a friend.
[Curious.] How often do you train?
I should hope so. [Gaara will just keep tinkering with this strange, foreign device, having never used a cell phone or anything of the sort back in his world.]

How formidable are our adversaries? Do they have known weaknesses?
