[Today when Shikamaru woke up to his morning routine of journal stalking, there was a mission notice waiting for him. Fantastic. But you reap what you sow with these things
( Read more... )
...Wearing that damaged flak jacket Shikamaru loaned him all that while ago (yes he didn't fix the hole from the gaping stab wound yet in his left side sue him). He's putting stuff in the various pockets]
[Sokka is at the smithy. Snoozing. He has a big large book of alchemy in his lap and his head is back over the edge of the couch, facing upward as he snores.
[It sure looks like it. Or so is the conclusion Shikamaru comes to after snatching it up for a cursory glance, though he's sure it'd be worth the read any other day.
He'd probably just leave Sokka be any other day too, but oh well. He snaps the book closed with a loud slam.]
[Ah, the square. Mid-afternoon, Albert can be found in the tea shop above the Welcome Center. He's only recently returned to the village, and he's trying to unwind.
We'll see how that goes whenever Shikamaru decides to check the shop.]
[Well, it's a good thing that Albert is so used to linefacing, because that's as much of a reaction as Shikamaru is going to get for now. He is enjoying his tea at the moment.]
[Looking for Naruto? The best place to find him is right outside the community building. And he's opening up a can of tuna and trying to carefully place it in a totally not suspicious location.
[Just. Watching you dive into that bush from the shade of the building over here, Naruto. He thinks he knows what you're up to, but he still can't help but wonder: whut.]
[Don't whut at his legitimate actions! He's awaiting a certain cat's arrival to get her back inside, that's all! There's no other reason, and all he has to do is lie in wait. Nothing can go wrong with this. No interruptions because he's invisible to everyone else, too.
Just don't be surprised if you notice someone else crouched in the bushes next to you with a bored expression. Hiding in bushes has always been Team 10's schtick, after all.]

What're you wearing it for anyways?
[Considering he's only seen it on him during some particular times, it raises some questions. He can think of a few possibilities.]

This is some boring stuff, okay.]

He spots him from the entrance to the shop, having only poked his head in for a quick look. But there he is - Shikamaru steps in.
Gotcha.
He'd probably be grinning if he weren't so busy linefacing.]

But he will pull up a chair to the same table, setting the board down before sitting himself and bringing out a bag with the tiles for it.]

Oh, hey, Shikamaru.

Nothing.
[Well. Nothing as far as things worth seriously dwelling on in his book, anyways. He Lifts the journal to indicate it.]
Got a mission.

After that, it's time to jump into a bush.]
