[ Well, it seems he's got the basics down.

This isn't the afterlife, even if Kakashi's not entirely sure if he's actually still alive. And the wings don't do anything other than serve a mostly ornamental purpose. Which, in his book, means that they're completely useless and have about as much function as a second belly-button or a third nipple. Either way, they're itchy and uncomfortable and he had to cut holes in his flak vest so they weren't crushed against his body. A flak vest that was kindly delivered to him by his sensei, along with the rest of his gear. (He's only too relieved that it wasn't Naruto or Sakura or someone else who came across him when he was still in that relative state of undress -- what, without the mask and all.)

So here he is, fully dressed, with his journal-cum-communication device in his hand, flipped on. He supposes he should say hello this way since it would be easier to do this than to hunt down every shinobi of Konoha individually. It probably would also be useful for him to introduce himself to the rest of the network as well.

He's sitting on a tree stump while Minato goes off to do something IDEK ok and has his signature I Am Bored expression on his face. Or rather, lack of expression.

The edges of his wings, silver and tipped in black, flutter slightly. ]

Ah, is this thing on?

[ He brings the camera a little closer then, to make sure it's properly capturing him. Once he's sure, he raises a hand in something of a wave.

This is starting to feel like some sort of speed dating thing, minus the actual person sitting in front of him. Not that he's ever actually done speed dating, but he assumes that's how it'd work. ]

Yo. My name is Hatake Kakashi. I'm a shinobi by trade.

[ What does one say in introductions? Likes, dislikes, dreams, and hobbies? Ah, he supposes he can do that. ]

I'm not the kind of guy who talks about his likes and dislikes... My dreams are...hmm.... [ a beat ] none of your business. And I have many hobbies. None of which I want to tell you.

[ Another beat. ]

Any questions?

As caught up as anybody is here.

[He already knows the worst of it so far.

Except the bit about Sasuke joining.

Because damn, that's the stupidest thing ever.]


Hard to keep track of all the news from back home sometimes. [Or how little of it there actually is after two years of being stuck here.]

[personal profile] keepitcanine 2013-07-29 10:00 am (UTC)(link)
From home, or... just in general?

Because the Malnosso tend to bring people here every couple months. But somebody shows up from home often enough, I guess—or someone here gets sent back home and then gets dragged right back. However that works. Wouldn't know. Haven't gotten to go home and kick ass with the rest of you. [Might be a little bitter about it even.]

....But, umm... at longest, probably six months or so?

Though, to be honest, I think they're running out of people from our end to kidnap.

One day my mom's just going to show up and I'll know they're finished.
keepitcanine: (♋ countdown to zero)

[personal profile] keepitcanine 2013-07-29 10:52 am (UTC)(link)
Well, yeah. I know that. I just mean compared to everyone else. We have a lot of people from our world, and that's weird. That's all.

But speaking of people being brought here, you don't have any of your dogs with you, do you?

[Part of him is surprised they even showed up at all. He had to wait two weeks for Akamaru, though summoning had never been an option.

Kiba registers the barking with an unsurprised stare—though the barking may or may not be much of a hinderance to the understanding of the ensuing conversation—however, some of the resigned disappointment still registers in the stiff, emerging frown, even if the results are better than Kiba expected. The real test is whether or not they still bark in face-to-face interactions. Kakashi seems to understand them fine, but Luceti treats animals by its own set of random rules. Meanwhile, Akamaru's muzzle snakes into closer view of the camera. Someone, at least, feels excited.]


Probably power limitations. ...And if you're actually managing to summon them from Konoha. [Versus gods-know-where. He's not going to even hazard a guess.] Both. They're also talking dog, by the way. Might just be how it looks and sounds while we're communicating with these, but you're gonna want to get that confirmed by someone else face-to-face just in case.

[Urge to be a stupid teenager rising.

But he doesn't want to have his ass beaten with words again.

Help him out here, Akamaru.]

[Like the dog said, sensei.]

They're barking.
keepitcanine: (♋ but my heart)

[personal profile] keepitcanine 2013-07-30 02:24 am (UTC)(link)
[Akamaru happily replies that Pakkun indeed is.

Except Akamaru's actually barking. Legit dog-talk right there.]


That's what I said.

It might just be over the network, but you're going to want to check. It does weird things like that sometimes. Like a lot of animals in Luceti can talk because of however the translation system here works or just because they can or whatever, but it sounds like animal noises over the network.

[Kiba snorts at the discussion.]

Yeah, that's another thing. It would be good if they could, you know, talk in the same language we do still.

Someone's told you about the experiments they do here, right?

I don't think you need details for this. I'm not the one to explain things to you, anyway. Make Shikamaru do it. It's his job.

But anyway, the animals that are brought here—the ones that don't have wings and codes on the back of their necks like we've got—they aren't affected by the experiments the same way we are.

They might be affected physically because of the things that are happening around them, but never mentally. At least, not that I've really seen. So if... they're okay with staying, you might want to keep them around.

That make sense?
keepitcanine: (♋ Defying Gravity)

[personal profile] keepitcanine 2013-07-30 02:51 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah. Akamaru's getting pretty good at it. But... I'm pretty much the only one who can understand him.

[And other people can't. Sometimes he even can't. So if the other dogs can communicate properly...]
