004 -- [Voice || Action] Dated to some point after the tent first appears

[He got a peek at the tent long enough to look at the crowd slowly growing inside of it. It was home from there; his room, where he could peel off that costume. The more he thinks about the tent, the less comfortable he is with it; with the thought of people being herded inside of it when they're desperate for the relief it provides. Maybe it's nothing, but he'd prefer to err on the side of caution.]

If you put a glass of water ten feet in front of a guy dying of thirst, you know he won't walk away from it. That tent's like that. Convenient, right?

Makes it pretty convenient to have everybody all in one place too. [Right where they want you - a circle drawn into the ground (and the ceremony's about to begin)

He closes the journal shut and tosses it without much force across the room. He'll open it again when the funeral bells go away.]

It's... a trap then?

[Correction.] It's a possibility.

[Some point later in the day. Itachi's weariness is fully apparent in his voice now, but at least he's slept - forced as it was.]

Shikamaru-san... perhaps a game sometime, after this has ended.

[That was a thank you. This event? Is not to be mentioned again.]

[What event do your brackets speak of; he knows nothing.]

We'll see.

[He sounds about as tired, if not irritable.]

I've kind of peeked in, but, I can't teleport in there. Thats... bad right?

I'd find that pretty troublesome, yeah. [A means to keep people from popping in and out by surprise? They can come and go as they please now, but what if that's not an option later?] It might mean nothing, but I'd be wary of anything that messes with your abilities like that.

Well... I mess up a lot on my own. It may not be the tent at all, but, I'm sure it's good to be careful around it. [[Says the girl with the lampshade on her head]]

As for the tent, I'll just be remaining here.

[Just so you know. And he's in complete agreement.]

Bri- [Wow. No, let's try that again.] Heh. Good idea.

[He snorts. If Itachi's reached the same conclusion, then yes, he figures the other ninja has backtracked to sanity at least a few paces.] Good move.

[He's eyeing the corners of his room, watching shadows stretch where they shouldn't before snapping back into place like they hadn't moved at all, an action that would have been painful for him if he had actually done it. See. Not hard at all.] Glad I'm not the only one who's thought of it.

[A few, yes. He even ate breakfast while he was starving enough that any hallucinations could be ignored.]

It may be a sign that these events have reached a climax, which is both promising and not.

[Hi, Naruto's dressed up as an old man in a green jumpsuit while in his springtime of youth.]

You think it might be bad?

[Anyone that takes such measures to hide their identity raises alarm bells for him. Thus, Sasuke will not be getting the full explanation.

Or a written reply, even though he has a pen.] Think about it. Offer people something, and they'll come get it if they need it bad enough. Doesn't matter where.

Yeah. I think it might.

[He blinks at the image in his journal.] ...is that supposed to be Gai or Lee?

[ So Chouji's not usually the go-to-tea kind of guy. No disrespect to people who like it best or anything, of course. But today he thinks it's a good plan.

Or rather he thought it was. That is the sound of someone with a very durable hand matching Shika's journal throw by breaking a cup.

>__> yeah, he'll replace that one when there's less trauma going around. ]

I agree.

I guess it is mega creepy-looking, but people stop freaking out when they're in here.

[Yep, in here. Girl can never resist a party.]

[Well he didn't expect he'd stop everyone.]

Appearances are the least of my concerns about it. It's that trade that bothers me.

That trade? You mean the whole not going crazy thing? It's pretty weird but it's not like, a torture chamber or anything. It's just a party.

[Still, it's apparent she's worried.]

[He rolls his head in the direction of the sound, then lifts a leg to toe his door back open.]

Oi. [Well. He won't ask the obvious question when he knows the obvious answer.] ...What broke?

[Gently:] You can excuse it as many ways as you like, Kitty, but you know there's something off about it.

[He can hear it in her voice, and he chooses to point that out instead of all of the ways it could be bad.]

Yeah...but like, what should I do? I didn't have any hallucinations, but I know people who have them aren't going to want to leave unless they definitely know something bad is going to happen.

It's troublesome. Either way you look at it. If it is the climax to all of this, that just means there's something more to come. [There's always an aftermath.]
