twenty-three crows (朱) video

[yourhatred]

[There is a feminine face in view right now, and those who've run into her already will recognize this as Itachi in his currently female state.

However, something seems to be a little... off with Itachi today. For one thing, she's smiling quite brightly at the viewer, something the ninja never does. The feeling of not-rightness is worsened when she waves a hand in a friendly greeting.]

Excuse me, everyone, but I was wondering if you could tell me if you've seen my youngest son? I haven't heard from him all day and I'm getting a little worried.

His name is Sasuke and he's only seven - dark hair and dark eyes like mine. I'm sure he's just out with his brother somewhere, but you know how a mother frets.




((ooc: Itachi hasn't been affected by anything but the genderswap. However he looks an awful lot like his mother, and it's started to mess with him psychologically.

Replies will come from scarletfemme.))

[That doesn't surprise him. That Itachi is unwilling.]

You've tried?

[Private]

[deathsdoctorine]

I've tried. But I haven't pushed. ... as to what's going through his head? I've got a good idea to some of it.

[Private]

[endgames]

Don't need to know that much.

[Every shinobi has different ways of coping with things; things in their heart to keep private. He's not going to trample all over that.]

Like in shogi, sometimes it's better not to promote.

[Private]

[deathsdoctorine]

[Good. She wouldn't have said much. As it is, what really went down and how long it lasted for are staying with her.]

Wise, that.

...

... those two have have been so quiet lately. It is disquieting. [You know which two she means.]

[Private]

[endgames]

Says you. [He got into a fight with one of them a couple months back. 8|] But I get what you mean. They haven't conferred, at least.

[Private]

[deathsdoctorine]

[That we know of anyway.]

... hopefully that will last a little longer. Either on his own is quite enough already.

[Private]

[endgames]

[They've been keeping pretty good tabs on Sasuke.]

That's the ideal, not that I'll hold my breath.

[Private]

[deathsdoctorine]

... nn. Neither will I. ... as it is, I've been keeping a sharp look out lately.

[For obvious unexpected visitor related reasons.]

[Private]

[endgames]

I have a feeling I should be thanking you for that.

[Private]

[deathsdoctorine]

Aa. That? Does not need to be thanked for.

[Private]

[endgames]

[SHRUG. He said it anyways, and doesn't mean to take it back. But in Law's place, he can understand the sentiment.]

[Private]

[deathsdoctorine]

... if one of them does show up, I will call. I will do what it takes to make sure things don't get... troublesome for everyone. [Which covers everything from just watching to creating a distraction... to, well, what the situation demands for.]

[Private]

[endgames]

I appreciate that, more than you know. But this conversation would be better served off the journals.

[He stole Sasuke's journal once, so if the same ever happened to him...

They're trying to keep what they're doing low-key. It'd be bad if Tobi or Sasuke found out what they were doing because he got careless.]

[Private]

[deathsdoctorine]

It would.

Pier?

[Private]

[endgames]

Sure. What time?

[Man, this has been a busy morning. He can't wait to get some time to himself later on only that goes horribly wrong so you might pick a time before evening unless you want scarecrow mask/don't mind him not showing up.]

[Private]

[deathsdoctorine]

How about noon?

[Private]

[endgames]

I'll be there.

[Private ---> Action]

[deathsdoctorine]

Then I'll see you then.

[Just look for the lady in the plain midnight blue yukata (tied with a man's obi) and Law's typical fur hat.

She'll be dangling her sandaled feet above the waves from her seat on the rock, staring out to sea.]
