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.))

If you encounter her, you'll probably fare better than most.

What makes her dangerous isn't her super strength or other unnatural attributes. She has... a sort of genjutsu ability? She can put her victims into a sort of hypnotic trance, and I'm not sure that's everything to it.

[yourhatred]

That's definitely worth taking note of.

I'm sure most of our fellow villagers won't stand for her presence much longer if this continues. Not that they do now, given the warning.

[deathsdoctorine]

She's already being hunted. The local vampire slayers won't stand for the possibility of her siring anymore vampires. Matter of time before they catch up.

... the only thing to see is if killing her does any good. Death Penalties can be anything.

[yourhatred]

Odd that those who arrive after already having died don't seem to be given a penalty.

At least one they're aware of.

[deathsdoctorine]

Perhaps it's a different process altogether and not connected with what causes the normal revival here. Difficult to tell with this place.

[yourhatred]

Perhaps.

[He falls silent again, stroking Amaya's back as she sits content.]

[Dinner is growing cold as they pay attention to the cats. Law eats slowly when she does start eating. Sumire stays snuggled in her lap.

Silence again.

This time she does not break it. Itachi will speak in his own time.]

[yourhatred]

[Eventually, Itachi returns his attention to the table in front of him.]

...I've let this sit too long.

[deathsdoctorine]

I could heat it up for you.

[They do have a microwave, even if it's rarely used.]

[yourhatred]

[Itachi shakes his head, reaching for his tea to drink it as is.]

[deathsdoctorine]

[Law nods and turns back to her own meal, ignoring how cold it had gotten as well.]
