Kunai the 8th: [Video/Olivine Action]

[It's him, though only the goggles were in view, his headband having been neatly adjusted so that it was just dark blue cloth and the metal plate was quite hidden in the folds of material. It was definitely long enough for it. He was also lounging back on a bed with a blank wall behind him, his charmander dozing on his chest]

So. How many of you have had a moment where you're sitting there going 'when the hell did I become the smart one?'

I mean, I've never been stupid, but things have been ridiculous lately.

Trying to impose your beliefs on reality? I mean, how does that seem sane to you?

[Video]

[lieutenantantichrist]

It's what I believe because it is reality.

[His face falls.] At least it used to be.

[Video]

[itsjustdust]

[His voice is almost gentle.]

But you can't prove it. It doesn't look good for you man.

[Video]

[lieutenantantichrist]

There's witnesses to what the real world is like. Some people here may've gone nuts, but there's plenty who can tell you this is all wrong. Hell, even you must know that. You're not one of those brainwashed freaks who was born here, are you? You must've come from somewhere.

[Video]

[itsjustdust]

The people here aren't that bad. They're just... naive. Really naive. I mean, when you grow up with the expectation that something is someway, even if it's wrong, then that's what you believe is normal.

I grew up with birds big enough to carry people and talking dogs, so talking pokemon and more birds aren't a big deal.

[Video]

[lieutenantantichrist]

That's true enough. Kids can believe anything.

[He's run into that a lot recently, in the worst way possible.]

Where do you come from, Florida?

[Video]

[itsjustdust]

[Have a beat of pause and WTF face.]

Konoha actually. It's pretty reclusive.

[Video]

[lieutenantantichrist]

And it's a magical place with talking dogs.

[There is flat skepticism coating every word.]

[Video]

[itsjustdust]

Who said anything about magic? You sound like an ignorant civilian.

[Video]

[lieutenantantichrist]

That's what giant birds and talking dogs fucking suggests. I'm not a- what do civilians have to do with anything?

[Video]

[itsjustdust]

Only an uneducated civilian would call any of that stuff magic. Obviously.

[Video]

[lieutenantantichrist]

The fuck else would it be? The military doesn't have any goddamn giant birds either.

[Video]

[itsjustdust]

[He rolled his eyes.]

I am not even going to try to explain. Civilians never get it. But hey, you tried, right?

[Video]

[lieutenantantichrist]

[Blake rolls his eyes right back] Unless you're from some third-world country, they don't let 14-year-olds in the military.

[Video]

[itsjustdust]

I've been official military since I was nine where I'm from. I'm highly ranked enough to be a commander.

[Video]

[lieutenantantichrist]

Nine? What kind of country has a Gradeschooler Brigade?

[Video]

[itsjustdust]

Don't give me that look, where I'm from it's not exactly uncommon, though I heard they moved the initial graduation age up later.

[Video]

[lieutenantantichrist]

You've got to be fucking kidding me. What kind of place has wars between kids too young to go to the mall by themselves?

[Video]

[itsjustdust]

Hey, it's older than it used to be. Also, not really the point. The point that you have no idea what the hell you're talking about, obviously, and spewing off about things without thinking just makes you look bad.

[Video]

[lieutenantantichrist]

Sending little kids out to kill each other, that doesn't strike you as fucked up at all?

[Video]

[itsjustdust]

Oh please, that's not a little kid, and we don't send Genin to the lines, they get village missions, you know, city maintenance stuff.

[Video]

[lieutenantantichrist]

How is nine not a little kid? What's your life expectancy, twenty-five? The hell is a Gainin?

Oh, so they're not underage soldiers, they're underage construction workers.

[Video]

[itsjustdust]

Yeah sounds about right actually. Anyone who makes it past mid-twenties usually gets a reputation across the Elemental Nations.

[Video]

[lieutenantantichrist]

[And here Blake thought the real world was fucked up.]

It sounds like for you getting kidnapped here was a lucky break.

The what nations? Is that like the U.N.?

[Video]

[itsjustdust]

Actually considering how I got here... eh. And yea-sure, we'll go with that.
