[Itachi focuses the view on himself, sitting in the living room of the house he shares with Law. As usual, he's in a plain blue silk shirt with his black clothes beneath. At his feet, a gray cat rubs against the leg of his chair.]

It has come to my attention that several others from the world I originate from have arrived in Luceti. To them, if they are aware of who I am, I simply state my presence and assure that there is no need to consider me an adversary at this point in time. This is in the hopes of avoiding any unfortunate altercations in the future should we happen to run across each other.

[Things are chaotic enough as is.]

I am under close scrutiny [This is mostly true to a point.] and have been here for some time, so there is no cause for alarm.

I'd like to think so, but it's hard to compare with other worlds.

[You tell him, in other words. He knows he's rare in his own world and yet...]

It's actually rather nice to have met more phoenixes here.

[Voice]

[yourhatred]

Have you? I do recall meeting an interesting bird during the time I believed myself to be Raven.

[Voice]

[fierybluebird]

Aye. At least two now.

What kind of bird did you meet? And... which Raven? [There are at least Ravens in Luceti. (3?)]

[Voice]

[yourhatred]

A bright red one, rather large. I believed I was the trickster Raven, from some sort of folktale belonging to a different world.

[Voice]

[fierybluebird]

Understood. I think I know a few of the stories. Did you catch the name of bird you met?

[He's 95% sure he knows who it is, but if so, they usually keep it secret.]

[Voice]

[yourhatred]

I did.

...But I'm afraid I can't recall it completely now. It sounded a bit like "Kazoo", I believe.

[Voice]

[fierybluebird]

Kazooie! My little sister!

[Voice]

[yourhatred]

...Actual sister or otherwise?

[Voice]

[fierybluebird]

All my family are adopted. [Not that that really answers it, but it's the best he can explain.]

Old habit from my father who adopted me.

[Voice]

[yourhatred]

I see.

I can't say that's anything I ever picked up myself.

[Voice]

[fierybluebird]

It's something that grew with a lot of years. Decades even. Honestly, it's part of what piracy even means to me.

Do you have something like that about being a ninja?

[Voice]

[yourhatred]

I do not, personally.

But I know those who do.

[Voice]

[fierybluebird]

It's a fond thing, eh. But it takes some getting used to.

[Voice]

[yourhatred]

Yes... I would imagine it does.
