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.]

[Well, at least, it shouldn't be that far in.]

Do you think so? If it got picked up, then it should be easier to find, right? [Since it should be in one of these shops. Or with one of the Luceti folk.]

[He huffs.] You'd think.

If two of us are searching, I'm sure we'll cover more ground. Have you asked Neji or Hinata to help?

voice

[endgames]

Nah.

[It's dumb, but it felt kind of personal.]

voice

[floralogy]

And why not?

[Though she has an idea why.]

voice

[endgames]

It's personal. Not life or death.

[A smile.]

Then, I guess it's just the two of us that'll do the search.
