Third Kunai: [Text/Video/Action Celadon] Whoops

[The first several lines of the message are in text.]

See, at first I thought this was really cool. But now, it seems to be stuck on this setting. In fact, it seems to be getting even lighter every time I use punctuation. It's not just me right? It's really doing that?

[It's at this point that the feed switches over to video, and shows him leaned up against his ponyta, who seemed to find it entertaining to eat his chips when he's not looking.]

So some help would be REALLY NICE. How do I make it stop?

Yeah they do, I know two who do, they're just not mine.

...Okay.

That's weird as fuck.

Yeah, one is kinda hard to understand sometimes, so I've been helping with the pronunciation, but the other is super easy to understand.

And this is just. Normal. To you.

...Do all the little animals talk in your world?

Course not, but I grew up with talking cats, knew some folks with a clan that had talking dogs, and my Sensei summoned talking frogs. I mean, c'mon.

...Yeah, see, where I'm from, if something ain't a troll and it talks, then you really want nothing to do with it.

[Because it either A. is an eldritch monster from beyond the beyond, or B. has something to do with a certain video game called Sburb which has been killing universes since God-knows-when.]

Well, it's pretty common in my village so I guess I'm just used to it?

Still. I didn't know other kinds of Pokémon could talk, period.

The more you know, I guess.

Any luck with that Gear?

Getting there, though I guess I get to go through every shade of red to get there.

Oh god. [He smirks.] Well, while you're letting it run out, go start writing some random shit in a new document, and then sell that afterward as an indie philosophical novel. Maybe it'll get trendy, earn you some money on the side, eheheh.

Nah, I know I'm not an author. But... That totally gives me an idea! I mean, people clearly know nothing about Shinobi in this place, I can work with that. Somehow.

[He laughs. It's raspy and doesn't even sound like a laugh for the first few seconds.]]

Steal your plot from real life! Brilliant.

[He grinned at that.]

An epic tale of the Shinobi who changed the world. Yep. Totally.

You didn't do anything at all, did you.

[Still laughing.]

Hey hey, that's not true! I am a bonafied hero. I just, uh, didn't survive.

...You died?

Yeah, you know, rocks fall, people die. In my case it was rocks fall, I die. My entire right side was complete crushed and I gave away the uncrushed eye to my teammate, who had lost one of his the day before so... yeah. Coming here was great for me, really.

So what, you came back as a ghost or something?

Nope! Flesh blood and stubbed toes over here. Just, apparently I got undead in translation.

Convenient.

I didn't die yet personally, but judging from what I heard, I kicked the bucket like a million times further along in my timeline.

Hey, I died the way I always wanted to if I had to die so.... it's okay. Maybe not, you know, the smooshing part, but, I wanted to die and have it mean something.

Well, I guess if you had to die, it's good to die with honour.

I wouldn't know, because me and honour have never even lived in the same country, but.

[That made him laugh, and he flashed him a grin.]

Nothing wrong with that. Lots of people say nin have no honor so... yeah.

Nin? That what you are?

I am a shinobi, otherwise known as a ninja, and if you don't know that one either uh... explaining is in order?
