[Suzu's hopping branches looking for evil searching for Pokemon casually when she notices this old man.

It was odd enough for her to pause. His outfit seems like something that people would wear back in her world - her village even, and for a strangely unexplainable reason, she felt as if she understood those floating boxes, but only half of them. Poison, stun, and paralysis? They ran into those all the time. Hm, since when you can actually see when attack and defense are reduced or not? Though, that set aside, what's 'disease' and 'confusion'?

...Well, the nice green-haired lady helped him out, and he looks fine now. Maybe she should just be on her way...]

*Light thud*

[Oops, dropped that Melange Gel right on his head. Well, she still had all the trees to hide in...]

variable_edge March 25 2009, 06:28:38 UTC

[What the-- smacked in the head by a gel]

The hell--

[picks it up and heeey he recognizes this! He will now be lookin' up]

Since when did this tree grow gels? ...Wait gels don't grow on trees.

sweet_shuriken March 25 2009, 06:34:49 UTC

[She's just going to sit there and not move and not make any sound. Hiding and camouflaging are part of her profession, after all. :|b Old men are supposed to be not interested in things and smell, so let's hope that he gets bored, take the Gel for granted, and be on his merry way.]

variable_edge March 25 2009, 06:43:18 UTC

[you do realize that Raven is part ninja himself but that's besides the point. Unfortunately you got a bit more of a perceptive old man so he's going to stand and pull out his bow]

Well now, I guess this could come in handy...should probably harvest a few more~

[and these will be a couple of arrows suddenly flying in your general direction :O They shouldn't hit. At least. Not supposed to. Just reeeally close maybe? 8D]

sweet_shuriken March 25 2009, 06:53:52 UTC

[Yes, the possibility that further investigation would be conducted did occur to her, but SHEESH people can be so unnecessarily curious and ungrateful sometimes D: Can't they just happily take what fell from the sky and go away D:]

!

[Ninja senses will not risk that. The leaves shuffle, and a blur of maroon is chased out of that one tree, only to take refuge in another. Only a handful of leaves fall to the ground. This is what you get for being greedy, and there is now a loli ninja hiding in another tree staring at you sulkily. :| She will however start throwing stuff too if you shoot at her again. She is, however, puzzled herself why she doesn't just make a break for it; he can't catch her if he doesn't have the lightest clue on who she is.

...Was she that curious?]

variable_edge March 25 2009, 06:57:30 UTC

[well darn, he was just having a bit of fun. but judging from that bit of breeze...]

Well I guess this was just a special gift from heaven. Be a shame ta use it. If only I could properly thank whoever sent me this...well actually I prefer the lemon gels myself, but.

[starts walking toward the tree she is in, tossing it up and down casually] Wonder who it's from though. If it's from someone from my world, they don't need ta hide, yeesh.

sweet_shuriken March 25 2009, 07:09:10 UTC

[If this was her world, she would have just poofed. But then she remembered where she was, and unless she gets to know these people better, she will never be able to truly judge whether they are to be antagonized or not. Plus, squabbles set aside, they may all have a common enemy in the Malnosso...]

*ktch*

[One of his own arrows drop from the tree, sinking straight into the ground about a bit over an inch next to the old man's foot. The young girl who threw it is now sitting on a lower branch, and while the leaves still covered her, she was very much visible. She doesn't look angry, but she IS staring quite intently at this shabby-looking old man. She gives a light gesture towards the arrow at his feet.]

This is yours, I believe?

variable_edge March 25 2009, 07:16:33 UTC

[hey now, he's not that shabby look--okay yes he is. But he'll be plucking that arrow out of the ground and twirling it a bit before looking up at her with a grin.]

Well that makes retrievin' it easier~

[flicks his wrist and it actually folds in half before he tucks it in a pouch hidden in that big jacket of his]

And I believe this--[holds up the gel]--is from you?

sweet_shuriken March 25 2009, 07:24:07 UTC

[She is unimpressed, and shrugs lightly.]

I don't think it matters. You can make use of it better than I right now.

variable_edge March 25 2009, 07:31:57 UTC

I think I'll save it in case somethin' else happens. Wouldn't want it ta go ta waste since I'm mostly healed up.

Name's Raven! And ya plannin' on stayin' up there? My neck is gonna start getting a crick if I have ta keep lookin' up at ya.

sweet_shuriken March 25 2009, 07:42:07 UTC

...

[She has nothing to say to that. He wasn't wrong, after all. And admittedly... That drop WAS an accident. She took it out because she considered it, though she supposes that it's pointless to dawdle on that now.

She easily jumps down from at least 7 feet up, landing on her feet like a cat with a soft thud. Elders still need to be respected...]

It's nice to meet you, M. Raven. [She bows formally the way she was taught.]

variable_edge March 25 2009, 07:44:11 UTC

[waves a hand]

Just 'Raven' is fine. No need for formalities.

Are ya always up in the trees or somethin'?

sweet_shuriken March 25 2009, 07:47:58 UTC

Alright, ...Raven.

[Ninja sense tells her that this sounds like a code name. What's this man's real name? 8|a]

...Often, yes. It's cool up there.

variable_edge March 25 2009, 07:50:47 UTC

[something you don't need to know, little missy >_>]

Well I can't blame ya. I find high places pretty nice myself. Get a good view of what's goin' on.

sweet_shuriken March 25 2009, 07:54:02 UTC

[She's prim and proper enough to not ask. :|b]

...Very much so. You see interesting things from time to time. [Overall people sense is saying that while this old man first comes off as sketchy and suspicious, he knows much more than what he lets on.

...She'll stay a bit; the last few days here proved to her that at Luceti, you'll never know how things turn out until they really turn out.]

variable_edge March 25 2009, 08:06:00 UTC

[good girl.]

Ever been on a flying mon--[wait, if Judith heard that he was calling Ba'ul a monster just for generic understanding, she'd spear him.]--uuuh whale? [WHAT. HE LOOKS LIKE A WHALE.]

Or just anything that flew in general? Flyin' through the sky like that is definitely somethin' I could never get tired of~

[hey, he's not that sketchy :| Okay, he is >_> He has that 'Fishy Old Man' title somewhere in his status menu.]
