[For some strange reason, the most recent calls and text messages have consisted of rather unusual tasks...

While browsing through the network on his NV, a call suddenly comes in, and Gaara answers it.]

Yes? [A beat.] Speaking.

Sai looked over at Gaara when he hung up the phone, having been in the room when he received the strange phone call.

"Was that what they call a crank call?"

Gaara was puzzled by the recent exchange. It wasn't the first instance, but he certainly hoped he wouldn't be receiving more of those types of calls in the future.

If he had been more familiar with Naruto's habits, he would have understood the concept of pranks. But as it stood, he remained fairly ignorant.

With a slight frown marring his expression, he responded, "What is a crank call?"

"I read that a prank call is a form of practical joke committed over the telephone."

"Joke? As in, humor?"

Clearly, he couldn't identify the aspect of humor.

"It is a waste of time," he declared in a firm tone. He didn't appreciate being propositioned over the phone.

"I believe so," he commented as he continued to put away documents in their appropriate folders for the red-head.

He turned to to face him. "Humor is always a waste a time, yet people seem to enjoy it. Seeing as most people are impractical, they must not find it a waste of time."

"Humor is widely practiced. Crank calls..." he shook his head with a hint of exasperation, "This is a new concept."

While Sai was filing some of the papers, his gaze shifted down to the small pile that remained. Other assignments that had yet to be delegated. The one he and Sai recently embarked on, it was completed successfully. His business was expanding - slowly, but steadily.

In Person || Log Style sai_coal October 22 2010, 02:53:39 UTC

He turned his back on him, and turned his attention back to the documents. "From what I've read, it's fairly common among young children."

In Person || Log Style fifth_kazekage October 22 2010, 02:58:58 UTC

Warily, he responded, "I doubt these types of calls came from children..."

It would be fairly disconcerting, in that case.

"Hmm..." he mused quietly, reading over one of the latest requests. Based on the level of possible danger, it wouldn't be wise to assign the mission away so freely.

In Person || Log Style sai_coal October 22 2010, 03:04:56 UTC

The sound caught his attention. Dark eyes turned to the Kazekage, but he kept his tongue still, not wanting to disturb him while he worked.

Monster elimination within the entire sector...

Gaara retrieved a map of the city and pinpointed the location in-question, discovering the area to be a considerable size. It would take at least several hours to complete the task. More, if he restricted himself in power usage, though it didn't seem to be a wise choice for this particular task.

He set that particular assignment aside, and then continued to read through the other requests.

In Person || Log Style sai_coal October 22 2010, 03:16:36 UTC

Sai, too, continued on with his quiet work, not wanting to disturb Gaara. Once he was done, he closed, and securely locked away the documents in a sealing scroll. He set the item next to Gaara before turning to the door, seeing as he was still busy with his work.

In Person || Log Style fifth_kazekage October 22 2010, 03:21:00 UTC

"Thank you," he murmured quietly, his gaze briefly flicking in the direction of the object. By that time, the redhead had finished his preliminary evaluation, having decided from the very beginning not to accept the easy assignments for himself.

After mentally drawing a list delegating tasks to the current individuals on hand, he turned to Sai, seeing him near the door. "...Are you leaving?"

In Person || Log Style sai_coal October 22 2010, 03:31:28 UTC

He stopped at the door, hand on the handle. "I do not wish to disturb you, while you are working."

He opened the door, and looked back at him with a practiced smile. "I will start dinner."

In Person || Log Style fifth_kazekage October 22 2010, 03:36:28 UTC

"I will be finished shortly. I simply need to compose a list." His head tilted slightly to the side as he gazed forth with a serene expression. "Will you wait for me?"

Returning to work on a consistent basis felt... rather tiring, after spending an entire year away from the office. Still, he would do what was necessary in order to survive amidst a new setting.

In Person || Log Style sai_coal October 22 2010, 03:42:21 UTC

His smile grew more genuine at the question.

"Of course, Gaara-sama."

In Person || Log Style fifth_kazekage October 22 2010, 03:46:36 UTC

A small smile quickly passed across his expression, before he nodded and turned his attention to completing the list as soon as possible. Minutes later, he secured the documents and locked up the building, stepping out into the quiet evening with Sai.

As they started down the street, he inquired curiously, "How is your job?"
