[Action | Mid-afternoon]
[ Nothing to see here.
Just a man with silver hair darkened by rust-colored flecks walking through the middle of town from the underground tunnels in fatigues soaked through in some places with blood. He's got a dirty-looking bandage wrapped around his left arm, a slowly spreading red spot eating its way across the gauze surface. He walks like a man who hasn't slept in days -- shoulders slumped, each step weighted. But even despite the apparent exhaustion, he still attempts to make it look more like a lazy stroll than a tired march back to the apartment he'd claimed as his own in Building 1.
Assuming it's even still called Building 1, and his apartment hasn't been taken over by a new resident, anyway. He's been gone for a while, after all.
Two months is a long time to be on a combat mission, but not anything Kakashi isn't used to. Coming back to Luceti after a mission instead of Konoha, though -- that's new.
On the way back toBuilding 1 Flame Building, Kakashi stops by the Convenience Store for some more bandages, rubbing alcohol, antibiotic ointment, a needle and thread, some pain killers, and a few packages of instant ramen. ]
[ Video | Night ]
[ Kakashi's looking a little better than he did earlier in the day. First aid, food, a hot shower, a fresh change of clothes, and a nice, long nap does wonders. ]
Yo.
[ Have a two-finger wave. ]
I'm back. Did I miss anything exciting?

[ Actually, Kakashi's pretty relieved. He wouldn't want anyone trapped here longer than necessary. ]
video;
Ah... I suppose that is so, in several ways. [He frowns and focuses his eyebrows.] But he is subject to the war back home now. And... I am sure that you were looking forward to challenging him again in a place like this.
no subject
[ There's always a war, it seems. ]
At least back home, he wouldn't be subjected to the sort of things the Malnosso like to put us through...
[ As for their challenges, as much as Kakashi will miss them -- and Gai, too -- it's a small sacrifice to pay in return for freedom. ]

Perhaps...
no subject
I just have to keep believing... that he would want me to keep fighting on! Do you think he would be proud of me?
no subject
[ Quietly. ]
no subject
Kakashi, what did you do.]
G- Gai-Sensei...
no subject
[ Kakashi adds on, eye curving into a perfect arc. ]
no subject
To have such pride in me... all along?! Even when I'm sure that I've let him down...
Gai-Sensei!
no subject
[ Yeah, Kakashi just looks really confused now. ]
no subject
But then again... Gai-Sensei is Gai-Sensei!
no subject
[ Kakashi reminds Lee lightly. ]
You can learn and grow from your failures. If you were always perfect and succeeded in everything you did, then you'd never know hardship or how to overcome your weaknesses.
no subject
...And - I - I thank you, Kakashi-sensei! It's no wonder that you are Gai-Sensei's eternal rival. You are truly worthy of being his equal!
no subject
Maybe Gai's not physically here to encourage you anymore, but you are the product of everything he's taught you -- years of hard work and training. So, just keep working hard, and if he ever comes back to Luceti [and that's a big if -- Kakashi would rather Gai doesn't ever come back, given how terrible he finds this place ] you can show him all you've done, then.
no subject
I will impress him whenever he returns here! And even if he doesn't... Maybe someday we will find a way to return home with our memories, and then I can show him in that way! I will not give up!
