eight crows (朱) action

[yourhatred]

Itachi, dressed warmly, has started a small campfire to the side of community building two. There, one can find the ninja cooking... sweet potatoes? And slow roasted tomatoes.

Sometimes he just needs an open fire. That and some time to think.

What is it they say about the best laid plans? He's sure the answer accounts for his current situation no matter what world one happens to be from.]

[quietly observing. And wondering about the conversation she recently had with Sasuke]

[There's someone nearby, but Itachi doesn't acknowledge their presence. This particular potato is taking longer to cook than anticipated...]

[That odor of a campfire is what attracts her, really. Nina's been wandering all over town and beyond at all hours of the everything for some time now but. Hm.

Well, she's in a curious enough mood that while she could try to watching from a distance she decides to go the direct route; she'll walk right up to the cute little scene here and see if she can't take a seat before he can object. Effectively inviting herself.

If she can't, well. That might be fun too]

Sorry for the delay!

[Itachi does nothing to stop her, nor does he look up from the potato he's turning slowly over the flames.]

Generally, one asks before joining another at their fire.

I'm delayeder

[compos-mentis.livejournal.com]

Bad habit of mine, forgetting to ask. [Not that she's asking now either. Though at this point she regrets she has nothing to actually roast. ]

[yourhatred.livejournal.com]

If I told you to leave, what would you do?

[compos-mentis.livejournal.com]

Probably just stay put here. I'm getting comfy.

[yourhatred.livejournal.com]

You're that confident of your own abilities? I could be a dangerous person.

[compos-mentis.livejournal.com]

If you're going to attack me or something why not make it worth my while and get it over with? [Really, he voice almost sounds eager at the idea. And as she says it, she places one of her hands casually on her hip. ...Also near where he sword (currently in a knife form) is]

[yourhatred.livejournal.com]

If I was going to attack you, I would have done so before you'd taken a seat.

[Calmly, he offers a potato.]

[compos-mentis.livejournal.com]

[Called it. Still, it does pay to have some shed of caution sometimes. She takes the potato.]

So, what made you decide to go rustic here?

[yourhatred.livejournal.com]

I felt like making a meal over an open fire.

[compos-mentis.livejournal.com]

Impulsive. [...Hm. Potato... she sniffs it. She actually has never had one of these]

[yourhatred.livejournal.com]

Maybe. I'm more used to this than cooking over a stove.

It won't bite back.

[Itachi doesn't raise his head, though he does acknowledge the other's approach.]

I believe I told you I didn't want to see you.

[felltohate.livejournal.com]

[yourhatred.livejournal.com]

No.

[He reaches over, picking up one of the cooked tomatoes and wrapping it in a paper napkin before tossing it toward Sasuke.]

[Itachi seems to have done a fair amount of cooking, but very little actual eating. He picks out a sweet potato for himself now, using a flat bit of wood for a makeshift plate.

To his brother, he says nothing else.]

[felltohate.livejournal.com]

[yourhatred.livejournal.com]

[Content to let Sasuke think things over, Itachi remains silent until his little brother speaks again.]

Probably.

[felltohate.livejournal.com]

[yourhatred.livejournal.com]

[Oh, but he's a little wrong there.]

I may be something of a hypocrite, and maybe I have no right to say this, but if your return to our world means you will attempt to destroy everything I tried to protect, then I will do my best to see to it you don't return.
