Kunai the 16th: [Video/Action Violet]

[itsjustdust]

[Obito has a rather solemn look on his face as the camera is turned on, and he has a Ditto settled on his shoulder, the pink pokemon looking decidedly miserable as it leaned against the teen's neck.]

Hey guys. So... I know you've heard me on about Rin, both my teammate, and the boy I know, in my time here. The boy being one of those silver haired ones who started off a Riku, for those who don't know.

I have the teammate here with me now, and the boy, well, he went home. Sort of.

[He lifted a tiny book between his fingers, giving a lopsided smile over the thing.] Since he claimed this was his normal body so...

I guess he gave me his body, but there's no mind inside to talk to so...

I don't really like that trade much.

[He gave a laugh and scrubbed at his face, swiping at tears before they could start and more determinedly held them back.]

I know he's not dead, but what he told me about where he was in his little nexus of home worlds means that it's not very likely he'll be back this way either.

Ah, right. One last thing. Wherever you are in town Sensei, he left me a note. I think it has to do with what we talked about.

It says "Don't forget your light. I won't."

I don't know why I would but... [He closed the little book, looking rather determined.] I'll do my best not to let him down.

And if he comes back... I hope he remembers so I can ask if that was just his way of saying he'd miss me.

But, no tears. Tears always confused and upset him so, I just wanted to put the word out to anyone from where he's from, because I know a lot of you, and I know you'd want to know.

Later guys.

[The feed clicked off at that point, with Obito back to being solemn.]

[Ah, crap. He's got no idea what this is all about, but the kid looks pretty down.]

So, uh...you okay?

[Video]

[itsjustdust]

[He blinked at the question, then flashed him a lopsided smile.]

Nothing to worry about.

[caster_blaster]

If you say so. Man's free to handle his own business and all. Just making sure you're not feeling too down-trodden.

[itsjustdust]

Nah, I mean, I have Sync here to keep me company about it and he's worse off than I am, right? [He indicated the pokemon.]

1/3 video

[fairycircle]

[A .. A book?]

2/3

[fairycircle]

[Oh. Oh no oh noo no no.]

[fairycircle]

[Hey, Obito, you aren't the only one crying here, but she tries to keep them at bay.]

Thank you, for letting everyone know.

[itsjustdust]

[No! Don't cry! You're making him start to wobble at the screen again too and he just got composed.]

Yeah, I wasn't sure people would. Oh no. Did you know him well?

video

[fairycircle]

[NOPE, she's just going to wipe her face and suck down some little sobs.] Yes, he was a good friend to talk with. It was a little funny that he didn't know some basic things pertaining to just living, so I made sure to teach him to stay out of cold weather and what colds were, and.. [Nope sorry, she's turning the feed at least to get some kleenex and wipe her eyes.]

[itsjustdust]

And he hated strong flavors, and forgot that he had to sleep, and had this assumption that he wasn't a real person. [He finished the sentence for her, giving a watery laugh and holding the tiny book tightly in his hand.]

He could be such a moron sometimes.

action;

[medinin]

[ Does Obito mind a teammate coming up from behind him? Rin's doing it anyways, dropping down to sit beside him and passing him - a strawberry tart? And in the other hand she has two bottles of iced tea. ]

I thought you might like something to eat. And since I don't actually have enough money to treat you...

[ Vending machines and streetside vendors it was. ]

action;

[itsjustdust]

[He was a little surprised... but smiled, if a bit lopsidedly as he set the gear aside to take the tart.]

Thank you. [He tilted his head a little, indicating the pink blob on his shoulder.] I'd like you to meet Sync.

action;

[medinin]

[ Rin will nod at Sync, unsure of whether or not the sad-looking blob wants to be petted...although she'll reach into a pocket to pull out a poketreat, to give to it. Yes, she carries those around, now.

Obito shouldn't even be surprised. ]

It's nice to meet you, Sync. I'm Rin. [ ...Well, she is.

And then, gesturing to the Audino who followed her in and is now poking at things nearby curiously. ] And that's Konoka.

action;

[itsjustdust]

[The Ditto made a noise of confusion as it took the treat, reaching out with an appendage to poke at her.]

Cuute. You've met a bunch of my primaries already with the flight over, but Sync here was, er, Rin's, so...

[He nibbled on the tart, a little sheepish at the sentence he'd just said. Better than sad, in his mind.]

action;

[medinin]

[ It's a delicious special poketreat, Sync! Enjoy it! ]

The other one, you mean. His starter?

[video]

[aflashoffaith]

[He's off on his own but not far outside the city limits, seeking a little quiet as he trained his team.

It would probably help if he didn't keep checking his 'gear then, but Obito is the only one he's taken a break to reply to.]

I'm sorry you didn't get to see him before he left.

[video]

[itsjustdust]

It's okay Sensei! He'll be okay! I just... It's both a relief that it's not the other way again, and kind of really upsetting at once.

[aflashoffaith]

Understandable.

[Man, what a month. Didn't bad things usually happen in threes?

...Probably better not to encourage something else to happen. Or maybe all the glitching and scrambled memories counted as the first. Hm.]

Still, it's unfortunate he's gone.

[itsjustdust]

[Clearly it was a three, they just hadn't hit the third person yet.]

Like I said, he's not, technically. [Have him showing you the tiny book again.]

I'm not sure if this makes it better or worse though.

[aflashoffaith]

[Shhhh don't jinx it.]

Better to look at it as something special to remember him by, I think.

[There was no easy way to look at things, but that didn't mean the tiny book had to become something painful to see.]

[cakelover]

Ah, I'm sorry to hear about your -

[ wait a minute. The serious expression goes sharper, and then - ]

That music. Obi-chan...are you in Violet?

video;

[itsjustdust]

[Have a pause as he realizes that there's no difference in the music here like there usually was.]

I am. Are you?

video;

[cakelover]

Yes! I've been here for a while, with Lilo-chan...

[ They're so observant... ]

Where are you at right now?

video;

[itsjustdust]

I've been in and out of Violet since I got to this place. We settled down on the far west part of the city though, at that place with the blue trim? [Which he never did look at the name of, whoops.]

video;

[cakelover]

Oh, I see...! We're on the east side, at the place across from the cute cafe with the strawberry parfaits.

[ honey that description does nothing... ]

We're thinking about going onwards eventually, but as for right now...!
