023 -- [Accidental Post]

[endgames]

[Earlier, when looking through his father’s book for the first time in several months, Shikamaru found some pictures he’d never seen before being used as bookmarks. It was… nostalgic, to say the least.

He finds another bookmark to replace them; puts the photos in a drawer to look at later. Because haha, he knows how this works, right? He leaves them out, and somehow his journal accidentally records it. Yeah. Hell no. He’s smarter than that and doesn’t leave his journal anywhere near them. On top of that, he takes it with him when he leaves to assist with a chakra training lesson. Crisis averted!

Guess what he sees when he opens up his journal two hours later.



Where’s the nearest wall. He needs to beat his head softly against it while he attempts to figure out how this happened. Feel free to action it up when he’s back at CH1 too, if you like.]

[That's an interesting flip on perspectives. Definitely sheds the civilians here like Masaomi in a stranger light.

He'll have to remember that.]

Secrecy part of the gig too?

The world at large doesn't...do well when they try and learn about demons and magic and vampires. Most ignore it. Most make up some other excuse. Some rational explanation.

[endgames]

That's rich, considering.

[Luceti is full of people from Earth that have are well-versed in all kinds of abnormal things.]

[ she catches his drift. ] Home's a little less open-minded than here.

[endgames]

Can't say I blame them. All the other world's seem far out, at times. Even for the rest of us.

[herotypical]

...I wonder if they're planets or dimensions.

[endgames]

Maybe both?

[herotypical]

Maybe. Maybe both. We've had enough star-travellers here to know that it could be possible.

[endgames]

Makes you miss the simple, narrow-minded view.

[herotypical]

Oh, to be young and blissfully ignorant.

[endgames]

Someone's gotta chase those halcyon days.

[herotypical]

Does the photo help with the chase, you think?

[endgames]

[He doesn't respond right away, having turned to pick up the real copy of the photo from where it lies off-screen.]

...yeah, maybe.

Good talking to you, Buffy.
