Chouji's gone home.

[He says this casually, as if he were talking about the weather instead of his best friend. The feed remains open for a little while longer and there's a weight to this pause that wasn't in his words, like there's something else he wants to say... but it's gone, by the time he does speak again in his usual lazy drawl.]

How long ( Read more... )

he's happy really, fighting is troublesome, not homesick at all, ninjas are suspicious of everything, cheating the system 8], it's not angsting if you avoid doing it, konoha doesn't look like that anymore..., good day for doing nothing

How long?

[Voice || 100% Filtered] its_troublesome July 3 2011, 02:54:26 UTC

This morning.

... Sometimes when people are sent home... they are brought back at a later point in time in their home world.

Mm. That's happened to Naruto before. [There's a pause as he walks along the chip aisle in the grocery store, looking for a particular flavor. His tone remains indifferent.] But it's better that one of us got out of this dump, don't you think?

[IT'S COOL, BRO. SHIKAMARU IS THE BEST AT ACTING LIKE HE DOESN'T NEED IT.]

[Finding loopholes is one good thing to come out of his Academy training, at least.

It doesn't take long for the hour's session to run to it's end, at which point he shuffles out of the room with his hands in his pockets, heading for the console to reset it. If she's still there, he'll give her a nod as he passes, pausing for a second as he tries to place her, having never seen her without her armor before.]

[It definitely does, and the reaction is immediate, his posture losing it's tension minutely.] Hey. Sorry, didn't recognize you at first.

[He never had the opportunity to find out how much of that suit was armor and how much was her actual height, after all. Damn, she's even taller than Asuma was.]

[All it's missing are the people who live there. For similar reasons, he left them out however. This is pushing it as it is.

When Law comes in, Shikamaru will have been sitting on a high roof somewhere in the middle of the village, overlooking a flower shop and a few other stores.

He hears the doors opening and closing, and while he turns in that direction to keep an eye out, he doesn't bother to get up. The way the Holly Boys flock towards anything that moves, he'll know what direction the person is coming from soon enough. And if it's anyone he needs to worry about? Shikamaru knows- knew this village like the back of his hand.]

[He snacks idly on potato chips, watching the way the Holly Boys scramble before spotting the way their scurrying becomes less organized, at which point his eyes hit the skyline. For this scenario, at least, they're keeping to the ground. So whoever it is would've hit the trees or the rooftops...

Ah. And there he is.

Shikamaru sits up a little straighter, popping another chip into his mouth and giving a short wave before turning his attention back to the artificial sky.

Getting up would be troublesome. He's in no rush. Far as he's concerned, Law can look around as he pleases.]

Almost four years.

That's... [How do people stand it? Being away from everything you know for so long?]

That's a long time.

[voice] corrinesbell July 3 2011, 19:56:23 UTC

I got that, thanks.

[her tone doesn't match the sour words, though. It's a legitimate question.]

[voice] its_troublesome July 3 2011, 20:38:31 UTC

Tch. Right. [He wouldn't blame her if they were - it was obvious, and didn't need commenting on to hammer it in.]

A lot of people just come and go around here - couple weeks, couple months, and you never hear from them again.

Uwaaa.... I'm not sure how long it's been here.

I should have written that down... I think sometimes I teleport into the future by mistake...

Uhm... five months? Maybe seven...

its_troublesome July 5 2011, 00:32:46 UTC

[Teleport... into the future.

... 8|]

Aa, didn't I talk to you in October? That would've been at least nine months ago.
