Dream χ One

[wingedascension]

Spring rushing in blue and white, a sparkling clarity of presence in the river streaming underfoot. Below the ledge where he stands, Neji sees it in the velvet buds of newly formed flowers, in their graceful stems bowing gently over the edge of the blackened soil at his feet, in the dew which, even now, pebbles his legs from passing through its

*Flying. It's not surprising that this is what Neji wanted most, that this is what he would dream of. Kakashi clears his throat lightly and adjusts the screen of the Hitomi.*

*He's not sure when the boy arrived, but he might as well greet him.*

[wingedascension]

[Yes, that's Kakashi's face on the little screen. A genjutsu? He schools his features into a semblance of dignity.]

Kakashi-san. I can't sense your chakra. Could it be due to this device?

[His image wavers slightly when he points at the hitomi.]

[ura_no_ura]

Yes, this is just a communications device....

*And one that allows you to view dreams, he wants to say, but he's not sure how much Neji knows about this world, or if he's even met with anyone yet... So he switches the topic instead. For now.*

[ura_no_ura]

Well, I'm not sure where you are. Show me your surroundings. I might recognize them.

[wingedascension]

I'm not certain how I can do that, Kakashi-san. This device has that capacity?

[ura_no_ura]

All you have to do is this.

*He turns his Hitomi away from him to show his surroundings -- it looks like he's in a forest somewhere. Fire Country, by the looks of it.*

[wingedascension]

[a nod of affirmation, and he swings his arm with hitomi held in the cusp of his hand, ensuring the landscape is broadcast clearly]

Were you able to see it?

[ura_no_ura]

Ah, I know just where you are. Stay put. I'll be there soon.

*A nod of the head.*

[wingedascension]

I'll be waiting.
