Ha, yeah it is. There's some sort of super locks on those posts, is the thing. I can't even get through them, though I've given it a good shot. I can try it again but I'm afraid I can't make any promises.

If you believe there is little chance of success after previous attempts, it may not be worth your efforts. It isn't particularly pressing and I did need a hobby to adopt.

Ah, by the way.

Hello, Matt. I'm L.

Fair enough. I'll warn you that the technology here's a bit deceptive in terms of difficulty though. The Forges are pretty shoddy but I hear they were made by a Scorched with a special knack for this stuff, so it's tricky cracking them.

And... it's an honor, sir. We've sort of met before, but I guess we skipped proper introductions, yeah?

I've heard of this man... conveniently unavailable. This world does operate differently, in several senses, so it is possible that a perfect system may exist in this space.

Yes, there were mild distractions.

A lot of folks who come and go don't remember people, so you're not the only one. Seems like it's a side effect of all the travel, or something, not really sure. I think there's only one or two people who remember...

The name's Zack. Zack fair.

[ voice ] l_shrugged August 22 2010, 08:36:12 UTC

I see... I'd be interested in speaking with them. Might you know their names?

[ voice ] i_love_squats August 22 2010, 18:11:27 UTC

Normally, I wouldn't mind throwing their name out there, but... they're a private sort of person. I'm gonna have to ask him first, just to make sure it's cool with him. Hope you don't mind?

[ voice ] l_shrugged August 22 2010, 18:56:17 UTC

Privacy is an important matter. [Agreeable tone.] Something to be considered, especially in situations of this nature. Of course I don't mind. If it is "cool" with him, tell him he may contact me directly; preferably in the early hours.

[ voice ] xnoble_reasonx August 21 2010, 18:38:43 UTC

You've returned.

Then perhaps you'll be interested in returning to the Police Force.

[ voice ] l_shrugged August 22 2010, 19:01:00 UTC

As soon as I have settled, I intend to reassume duties. Unfortunately, it's taking some time to adjust properly.

[Half-lie. Work will be easily reclaimed, perhaps in a vie to regain something familiar. And he certainly doesn't sound overwhelmed.]

thejewelergem August 21 2010, 19:36:18 UTC

I don't think I knew you before. Johan Andersen.

And I haven't got any shoes, but if you need a few ivories to get a pair there are all kinds in the Found Goods store.

[voice] l_shrugged August 22 2010, 19:29:24 UTC

Then Johan and I will be on level ground.

And I believe I'll be receiving a pair of shoes soon, though I'm no less thankful for the generousity. It's also nice to hear I am not the only one lacking footwear.

Re: [voice] thejewelergem August 22 2010, 21:55:41 UTC

Ah--well, I have mine, but you don't want them, they're pretty worn out. I keep forgetting to get new ones.

Let me know if you need help, I don't mind!

[voice] l_shrugged August 23 2010, 00:52:22 UTC

Worn shoes are more comfortable.

[As though he had no recently refused the generousity.]

Shoes. [Wait. Oh. Wait, yeah that was him- it's that shoeless guy again. The one who made the call when Near died needed help. ... ]

Still got 'em. Shoes I mean, if you want 'em.

[A bare pause.] So you're back, huh. [Wait. He said reintroduction. He doesn't remember then?] Name's Uzumaki Naruto.

[ voice | private ] l_shrugged August 22 2010, 19:44:52 UTC

I am, it seeems, and shoeless once more.

[Ah.]

Thank you, Uzumaki-san. It may be several weeks before, but I will repay the favor once I have settled. Ah, I hope the arrangements of our last exchange may be repeated.

[ voice | private ] couragetodare August 23 2010, 00:35:05 UTC

Got it. Well, can't have you walkin' around with no shoes. [Somewhat sympathetic. He knows how it is to end up in a place like this and to have been here before and not recall it.] Want me to drop 'em off somewhere so you can pick 'em up or...? [Leaving options open. It's entirely up to L.]

Just call me Naruto, okay? That Uzumaki-san stuff makes me sound kinda old. And they're just shoes, s'not a big deal. [A careful pause here.] Our last exchange? [He's not sure what you mean there L. The shoes, or other things.]

[ voice | private ] l_shrugged August 23 2010, 00:50:41 UTC

If you could leave them by the Door, I mean. I tend to forget it's been several months whereas I have only recently read "our" interaction.

[A pause.]

I take it there were private exchanges I would not know of?
