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?

Nah, if someone in bright red can cut you down from the shadows I'd say that's pretty good actually.

...Makes sense.

It means a hell of a lot more training, but I guess no one wants a badly-trained ninja.

[He flashed him a grin.] Exactly. If I really wanted to I don't doubt I could still sneak up on someone like that.

Sure you could.

I've pretty much never been a ninja. It's kind of hard to sneak up on someone when you got giant red and blue lights flashing from you all the time, and out here, I have stealthy Pokémon to do all the dirty work for me. [He sniggers.]

Yeah, see, shinobi tend to have controlled flashy so that'd help a lot.

What's shinobi flashy do, then? [If his flashy is better, he will not be jealous at all. If it isn't, though...]

Eh? Oh! Like, breathing fire or holding electricity in your hand, or making huge illusions to trap your enemy. You know. Flashy.

Huh, that is pretty flashy.

All of it at once, or do you have specialties?

I can do the fire and illusion bit, my teammate could do the electric and illusion bit. More stuff too but that's the super flashy stuff.

Not bad. Not bad at all.

I never had a teammate or anything. [He sniggers.] I usually just avoided people, but if they wanted to come near I was pretty much strong enough to fight them off by myself.

[Then again, he lived on a planet inhabited mostly by other children of the species. Most of the adults could crush him.]

Yeah, well, my teammate was an ass. [He rolled his eyes] I hear he got better after I died so it works out.

Yeah, no surprise there. [Griiin.] Funny how that works. No one takes the incentive to look at their life and their choices until after someone else gets it.

No kidding right? But, I understand it takes someone dying to get to him so hey, at least it wasn't a waste, right?

And you ended up coming back from the dead anyway. Everyone wins.

...It ain't so bad that you came back, dude. You're pretty cool. [Probably didn't wail when you died, either. Sollux values people who take their leave quietly.]

[He laughed and flashed him a grin]

Thanks! I died pretty much the best way someone like me could so... smile there then I woke up. Poof, the universe is awesome.

[Snrk.] I wouldn't go that far.

Yeah well, it's awesome compared to being dead.

Yeah, okay, you've got a point.

[YOU'RE LUCKY HE'S IN A GOOD MOOD RIGHT NOW OBITO OR HE'D... HE'D... disagree with you. On that. Yes.]

[Because being dead is sunshine and rainbows?]

Well, yeah! If I didn't that would just be kinda sad, cause, well, here is pretty fun once you get over the 'oh god I lost all my abilities' part.

[Compared to living sometimes? Yes.]

...Eh.

[It's not the best video game he's ever played, let's put it that way.]

You totally don't agree for real do ya?

Noooooot really.

Well, why not?

I dunno, not too bad on the whole, but some parts kind of... unnerve me.

[And now he was baffled.]

Like what?
