Show of hands if someone tried to prank you yesterday.

[Annoyed as he sounds, he's mostly gotten over it. Simply put, Shikamaru is just too lazy to hold a grudge when it comes to most things. He's still curious, however.

...but no longer orange, thankfully.]

[Later on, just before evening, Shikamaru can be found on his way back from the Item's ( Read more... )

Here's a question. If you're in hell and you get pissed off at somebody, where do you tell them to go to?

[In before Luceti.]

[Shikamaru's been a busy guy lately. There's been a lot of details to go over with the draft, as well as outlining strategies, and there's still more to come. A question un-battle related seemed like a good distraction.

But ( Read more... )

[Forward-dated to early Tuesday morning - Unfortunately for you, Luceti, the paperweight Shikamaru usually keeps on his journal seems to have been knocked off during the night. If he knew, he might apologize for the BLARING alarm clock as it goes off at six in the morning.

But he doesn’t, so instead you get complaining.]

Nn… again? Forgot I set the ( Read more... )

[Being a cloud? It is just as awesome as Shikamaru always thought it would be. For the most part, he's been able to just float along at his leisure, observing anything interesting and not having to do anything when there was nothing else around. He's sure he won't want to stay like this forever, but he wouldn't mind it for another few days.

Oi. What's easy to make for dinner, besides sandwiches and microwave dinners?

[Let's face it - Shikamaru can cook for himself if need be, but Chouji's the food lover. Unfortunately there comes a point where one gets bored of the dishes they know how to make - particularly when those dishes are sandwiches and instant food.

Speaking of instant ( Read more... )

[Cripes, Luceti. He hasn't seen a place so chaotic since he was back home in his own village - and at least then it could be attributed to some sort of diasaster. It seems lke nowhere is safe from strangers popping in, so he thinks he'll keep his observations limited to the journals and his own rooftop for now. Going anywhere else and still failing ( Read more... )

[It is a rare thing to catch Shikamaru out of bed before noon, much less wandering around the western side of Luceti's forest when it's so freaking cold out.

Then again, it's not every day that he's been told that there's a possibility the village might find itself resembling some kid's aquarium If Things Do Not Go As Planned even if we ooc-ly know ( Read more... )

[If you happen to be at the Good Spirits tonight, you may notice something off about one of the patrons. Maybe it's that he isn't drinking anything, but most likely it's that he's six years old. Going to the bar seemed like a great idea - of all the weird places here, that's somewhere his dad would definitely want to go to, right?

He's been looking ( Read more... )

[He got a peek at the tent long enough to look at the crowd slowly growing inside of it. It was home from there; his room, where he could peel off that costume. The more he thinks about the tent, the less comfortable he is with it; with the thought of people being herded inside of it when they're desperate for the relief it provides. Maybe it's ( Read more... )

[After a certain conversation with Albert, Shikamaru has a job to do. He has other things he'd much rather be focusing on - Naruto's been missing for presumably days and he didn't even hear a thing - but his idea doesn't do anyone any good if he doesn't bring it up to the people who could put it into action.

This deal with Malnosso really threw a ( Read more... )
