[The video feed shows static, then flickers on. The picture clears up to show... a giant face? Haruhi is leaning in far too close to the camera. Her eyes have an excited gleam, and she's grinning like a kid on Christmas morning

[He blinks. Well, okay, start with the start.]

Hello, Haruhi-san. It is good to meet you. [He thinks.] My name is Rock Lee, and I have found out that I am a Weapon though I am not certain how to transform yet.

I think there are people who can tell at the morning training session? Or you could try leaving a message for Maka-san.

[enliventheworld]

You should work on that. But...what kind of weapon are you, anyway?

I suppose I can go to the training session. Maybe there will be super strong weapons and meisters there!

[verdant_lotus]

I am not certain. From what I have found out, you have to transform to find out your Weapon form, and I have not learned how to do that yet. I am certain that I will learn soon, though!

[enliventheworld]

Hmmmm. [This weapon-business is not as straightforward as Haruhi would like. She pauses for a moment, thinking.]

When you learn, come back and inform me of your success and form! You seem compliant enough~ you might have potential!

[verdant_lotus]

[For a moment, Lee just looks confused, then he laughs.]

I will let you know when I find out, though I am not certain how long it takes to learn. But if you are a Weapon too then you could always just change yourself?

[enliventheworld]

I'd still want to see what everybody else looks like as a weapon! They could be really strange and cool looking, and I don't want to miss it just because I'm an immensely powerful ray gun or something.

[verdant_lotus]

What is a ray gun?

[enliventheworld]

A gun that shoots laser beams! [Haruhi mimics firing a gun with her hands, then looks a little confused.] Where are you from?

[verdant_lotus]

[Lee just looks more baffled.] Beams? Like chakra?

I am from Konoha. [He taps the headband- then realizes that does not really mean the same thing here it does back home.]

[enliventheworld]

[Haruhi is stunned. She leans in closer to the screen, as if that will help her understand better. She leans back slowly, ponders for a moment, then decides that she does not know where that is.]

You aren't from the same world as me. My world doesn't have anywhere named Konoha! And what's chakra?

[verdant_lotus]

Where are you from, then?

Chakra is- [He starts, then stops, then looks thoughtful.]

It is life energy. It runs through your body, and people- well. Most ninja can use chakra to do ninjutsu and genjutsu. [Lee's not part of that 'most'.] And sometimes it can be like beams?

[enliventheworld]

Japan.

[As it all sinks in, Haruhi starts to look really excited.]

So, are you a ninja? I suppose you can't shoot beams here, because they took away all weaponry and magic power, but can you still sneak around all stealthily and kill people with your bare fists? Ahhh, a ninja...so cool!

[verdant_lotus]

[Lee ruffles his hair a bit sheepishly.] Well, I guess. Though I have never been as good at the stealthy part. I am more of the type to rush in. Neji is the one who is better at that type of thing and making plans, and Tenten is our weapon's specialist-

[And he realizes at that point that none of them are there, and his expression grows somber.]

[enliventheworld]

Hmmm... Well, even if you're not stealthy, you're still a ninja!

[Compassion and understanding feelings? What are those? Instead, Haruhi gives Lee a thumbs up.]

I approve!

[verdant_lotus]

[His smile in return is less enthusiastic than it would be, if his thoughts hadn't taken that path, but it's there- in large part because of that thumbsup. He returns the gesture.]

Thank you.

[enliventheworld]

[Someone is thanking her for her approval? Haruhi isn't used to being thanked for anything, much less being thanked for 'find-interesting-things' related matters. She looks confused for a moment, but then smiles.]

No problem! It's my duty as Brigade Chief to befriend all interesting people here, and you qualified. You have to tell me more about being a ninja sometime! Or show me a ninja trick!
