026 -- [Voice || Written || Action]
If I see another mountain again, it'll be too soon. Did any of you know that sirry means "ridiculous"? [He snorts.] Explains a lot. Avalanches. Yetis. More freaking snow. Man, that mission was a pain...
[/whine and complain]
Anyways. I'm back. [Technically has been for two days albeit not in town, so he'll make it official.] Anything interesting hap- [His disinterested tone gives way to irritation as he turns his attention to something off-screen.] Oi that's not for you-
[The journal snaps shut with a sigh. He never finishes speaking, but about an hour later the post is transcribed... minus the interruption, and now with complete sentences.
If you're out today now that the heavy rain of the few days is finally letting up, you might spot Shikamaru coming back into the village from the North... closely followed by a deer much larger than Luceti's usual fare ((think five feet at the shoulders, six at the head, and eight feet with antlers)). The stag seems pretty content to follow him around - even into town or just standing around when he sits - despite sticking to the tree-lined paths when he can. Shikamaru talks to him sometimes.
Yes, talks, shut up.]

Pain in the ass. I've never been to Iron, but even it can't suck so much.

Please excuse him while he stares at Shikamaru's deer (and pointedly not looking at its antlers.) Hi there Stantler thing. What's up. Sneasel joins in on the staring.]

And decides to follow, from a distance. It's a strange sight, so she doesn't directly approach Shikamaru, but he's sure to notice that Azusa, clad in a heavy raincoat and sandals for whatever reason, is following him (or the stag).]

Aa-a. [Shikamaru stops and sighs.] Again? There was at least a seat back that way.

In Ami-chan's absence, I've taken her place in the clinic. If you're hurt, please don't hesitate to come by, I'll have most things patched up in a matter of hours.

Either way, I'm sure at some point, Shikamaru will either bump into his friend or notice that she wasn't around and do something about it.]
no subject
So later in the day, when he thinks Aang won't be back at the house just yet, Shikamaru takes a trip down to the Avatar abode. Rikumaru still won't leave him be, even if he isn't following him as closely. To keep him out of the people paths, Shikamaru winds around back.]
