[When the PCD turns on, the first thing in sight is Naruto - It's clear he's distressed, wide, expressive eyes stare, and his mouth works for a moment, fingers mashing on buttons on the device itself.]

[Coordinates. Katara won't bother answering on video -- she'll just show up about half an hour later with a basket of snacks.

She doesn't knock, instead just slipping inside.]

Naruto?

[By the time she gets there, he's flush against the wall, one fist pressed up against the damaged brick whilst the other provides a resting place for his forehead.

The sudden call of his name is enough to make him jump, looking over at her and frowning instantly.]

What?

[offline] kyasdaughter September 6 2011, 17:14:48 UTC

I brought food.

[Her voice is soft, almost coaxing.]

Have you eaten today?

[It's a really simple word, but instantly he frowns - in thought rather than because he's pissed off, leaning back off the wall, only enough to look at her better.]

-- I'm not hungry.

[offline] kyasdaughter September 6 2011, 22:49:57 UTC

Doesn't matter. At least have a snack with me, okay?

[And she's heading to the table, unloading the basket.]

I lost someone I cared about, too.

[He's still pressed up against the wall, still watching her with narrowed eyes.]

Are they dead now?

[offline] kyasdaughter September 6 2011, 23:00:34 UTC

[-- oh. It's that sort of situation.]

.. no. But Jet will be, if he ever leaves. The same with my mom, if she ever comes here at all. Do you want fruit? I managed to find some.

[It's hard to stay angry-- he's been dealing with anger issues for a long time, and controlling the Kyuubi is so important that he can't let himself stay like this.

Carefully, he shifts off the wall - leaning back to look over at her.]

-- What kinda fruit?

[offline] kyasdaughter September 6 2011, 23:07:27 UTC

An apple and a peach. Some bread, too.

[All rare commodities in Adstring, but she was more than willing to share.]

Here, we can have half of each.

[offline] thelonegenin September 7 2011, 00:14:53 UTC

[It's another moment or two before he makes his way over, just hovering, a hand reaching across his chest to grip the other arm at the elbow.]

They're yours.

[offline] kyasdaughter September 7 2011, 00:25:59 UTC

Yeah, they were pretty hard to find.. but it'd be pretty selfish to eat them alone. I'd like to share them with a friend. Sit down?

[offline] thelonegenin September 7 2011, 00:29:25 UTC

[He stares at the seat, slumping down into it and letting his hands fall into his lap, taking a deep breath before looking away from her altogether.]

I love her-- even though like... I never knew her.

[offline] kyasdaughter September 7 2011, 00:32:02 UTC

[She cuts up part of the apple, pressing the slices on a bit of cloth napkin toward Naruto.]

She was your mom, right?

[offline] thelonegenin September 7 2011, 00:34:14 UTC

[He chances a glance up at her, before pulling the napkin closer, picking up a piece of apple to study.]

Yeah...

[offline] kyasdaughter September 7 2011, 00:35:59 UTC

[By the time he looks up at her, she is already meticulously slicing the peach.]

How old were you when she died?

[offline] thelonegenin September 7 2011, 00:38:38 UTC

[The question makes him stop, and the apple that had been soooo close to his mouth drops with his hand back to the desk again.]

Ah-- They both died-- on... the day I was born.
