006 -- [Action || Voice]

[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 they will, more or less. Despite being told like everyone else that there's nothing anyone can do to prevent it if something goes wrong, waiting for the inevitable just feels like a death sentence. There's being lazy, and then there's being stupid.

Feel free to bump into him if you're out that way yourself. When he's finished, he'll head back towards town, hands stuffed in his pockets. He throws up a voice post on his way.]


Anyone here good at digging holes? [That came out a bit sarcastically - it's early. Okay, but seriously:] Or better yet, skills for manipulating the earth.

[Once that's done, Shikamaru takes some time to track down his fellow ninja before heading of towards the Avatar House.

And then, a filtered message that was here the whole time.]

[Filtered to Trafalgar Law || 100% Unhackable]

I'd like to talk to you about some things, if you're up for it.

[From what he gleaned of your conversation with Catherine, you have a better understanding of the way tsunamis work. Understandable, for a pirate. And while he can come to his own conclusions, it's not a substitute for someone who knows what they're talking about.]

[ Practicality saves the shoes. ]

I remember. [ Hard to forget, really. ]

Sure. [ This much he knows. ] It would take longer, but as long as I have enough ground, I can do it.

[ Powercaps. They just make things take more effort, is all. ]

[ A nod and a returned grin. That's his job. ] No problem. Just say the word.

[ ... B| ]

You should eat first. [ You cannot tell an Akimichi you're too busy to eat anything. It's blasphemy. ]

That's bad for your stomach. [ If he assumes that Shikamaru hadn't eaten anything to accompany that coffee. IT'S NOT A FOOD GROUP D8

How are you supposed to plan like a boss if you keel over halfway through the flood? There are practical things to be considered here. The shovel can lean against the side of the building for a while; more important matters at hand and all. ]

Sure. If you promise.

[ You're lucky Chouji has basic faith in humanity. :| ]

[ Chouji sees no cheating in this. This is good, diplomatic negotiation, that's what it is. ^_^ ]

See you when you get back. [ He'll even be done shoveling by then. ]
