028 -- [Voice || Action]

Hi. [The journal feed starts unceremoniously.] Noticed the village is getting back into the swing of things. Either that or those who are sulking are doing so more quietly. Good luck with that, whichever.

But hey. I'm looking for a lighter that I misplaced. Anyone comes across it, lemme know. Thanks.

[Through the afternoon and evening, Shikamaru can be found in various places around the village: digging through things in shops, searching through grass and shrubs and so on. He hasn't been around the village much in the last two days, busy elsewhere with his deer.

Now it almost seems like he's making up for it. One minute you might walk past him digging through the trash behind a building, only to go in to find he's inside already (probably asking if the place has a lost and found). Someone's busy.]

True, but just because there's been worse doesn't mean this experiment was harmless.

[He's not gonna rub it in by any means; that'd just be stupid.]

Does this missing lighter have anything to do with it?

You could say that.

So, what's it look like? I don't have anything better to do, so maybe I can take a look around.

Classic Zippo. Maybe somewhat wider. It's silver-plated and polished. Rough from use. Got some scratches along the hinge.

Hmm. I think I can work with that.

[If nothing else, he can certainly try. And his Dream Eater does give him an extra set of eyes.]

Do you remember where you last had it?
