[Video]

[ When the video first goes on, the screen is covered by a glove-covered hand, but after a slight shaky moment as it's set down on some sort of ledge, the hand retreats, revealing Kakashi standing outside. A few trees, still droopy with melting snow, can be seen in the background. Those familiar with the terrain might recognize it to be near Flame Building. ]

Hello, Luceti.

[ Kakashi dips his head in greeting, since he's addressing all of Luceti. ]

My name is Hatake Kakashi. Some of you may be familiar with me. For those of you who aren't, I'm a shinobi from a village called Konohagakure -- or Konoha for short -- in a country called "Fire Country." I am also the Commander of the Third Division, which is primarily a short-to-mid-range combat division, of the Allied Shinobi Forces. Many of you may be acquainted with or might recognize my comrades, amongst whom include Uzumaki Naruto, Nara Shikamaru, and Rock Lee. [ The names Kakashi lists aren't at random, but selected based on his observations of how recognizable those names would be. ]

The reason why I reach out to all of you today is simple. While things in Luceti currently are peaceful, and it appears we have nothing to worry about, the ever-present threat of the Malnosso and the Third Party remains. Kidnappings still occur, with seemingly no conceivable way to stop or fight them. Should there be an attack on the enclosure, at present, there is no organized force that can fight in concert to protect the enclosure and ensure the safety of civilians who might not be able to fight back. While some of us may be used to working together due to missions and drafts, as far as I am aware, no formal training or maneuvers are ever held to ensure all parties working together are using the best tactics and strategy. And from what I know, there are no formal safety measures in place to protect civilians or evacuate them to safer ground should a fight break out, as it did a few months ago.

On behalf of Konohagakure and Fire Country, by order of Namikaze Minato, the Yondaime Hokage-sama, I would like to formally extend an invitation to anyone who has military training, unique or magical powers, or immense skill in battle strategy, espionage and intelligence-gathering, field medicine, hacking, or other specialized skills to join us in forming an alliance. This alliance would not only give those of us from different worlds a chance to meet and discuss our shared interests in protecting Luceti's inhabitants, but would also give us the opportunity to learn and adapt how to fight with and against those with different training or powers. By conducting shared training sessions, maneuvers, disaster simulations, and taking missions together, we can share resources and power, as well as develop strategy.

As for who's in charge... seeing as we're all from different worlds, it would make much more sense for us to establish a council of leaders from different worlds. We invite leaders from other worlds who might have similar shared interests to contact us, and open a line of dialogue.

We look forward to hearing from you all.

[ Speech finished, Kakashi bows to the camera again, then reaches out and turns off the feed. ]

[ Yup, that sure is Kakashi walking vertically up the side of a wall. Just strolling along like it's no big deal. ]


[ Text | Filtered 100% to fellow ninja, written in extremely formal language ]

By order of Yondaime Hokage-sama, the Konohagakure Jounin Exams will soon be held for all qualified Chuunin. If you are interested in participating, a sign-up form has been placed on the door of Yondaime-sama's place of residence. Direct any questions you might have to Hatake Kakashi.

[ Text | Filtered 100% to Shikamaru ]

Shikamaru, I've nominated you for jounin promotion to Yondaime. Though we've decided to hold jounin exams, I've requested a special exception for you. However, if you would like to take the exams in the interest of fairness, you are still welcome to do so. - Kakashi

[ Text | Filtered 100% to Naruto ]

Naruto, I just wanted to let you know that I nominated you for jounin promotion. However, because you are still genin, it will be necessary for you to take the exam. - Kakashi

[ Text | Filtered 100% to Sakura ]

Sakura, I've nominated you for jounin promotion. Usually, this means immediate promotion, but because your peers don't have anyone to nominate them, we've decided to hold exams this year. Let me know if you would like to compete in them. - Kakashi

((ooc: Since this is a call for discussion, feel free to thread-jack and hold your own conversations throughout the post. Kakashi will try his best to answer all comments. Also, feel free to comment on this post even it's super late. As long as we're within the 3 month bracket, we're cool!))

Well, I have weapon caches in several cities, not to mention America is a playground of guns and ammo. I do enjoy a good slice and dice though, sometimes you need to just cut, as opposed to hearing all that noise.
axed: (⚔ look)

This America sounds like a fun place. I've run into a couple of you who claim to be from there.

Technically speaking I am originally from Canada, wouldn't want to make it seem like America has all the fun, but mostly yeah.

[A shrug]

It certainly is a lot more interesting than this place, that is for sure.

What do you do for fun around here, then?
the_dead_pool2: (Baking)

[personal profile] the_dead_pool2 2014-02-23 05:43 pm (UTC)(link)
Usually make my own, a few interesting Sims in the battle dome, involving pirates and zombies and other things. Go to parties when they spring up, derp around on the network, usual shit.
axed: (⚔ addictions)

And the mask, what's with that? Don't want to let people see your ugly mug?

[Nail on the head with that one]

It is a bit silly here, but it is part of the whole outfit for me. I mean in my world, pretty much all the major players have got a uniform, and a good portion have masks of some shape or variety.

[He shrugs]

Were I a lumberjack, I'd be wearing a flannel shirt, sporting a beard, and toting around an axe, but I am a mercenary so I wear this get up.

[Indicates his current outfit]
axed: (⚔ yeah i have a cock)

[personal profile] axed 2014-02-24 08:00 am (UTC)(link)
Guess I need a flannel shirt, then. Not sure I could pull off a beard, though.

Urge to sing the lumberjack song rising...

[Though her wearing suspenders and a bra was more of a given]

I'm sure we could shave a bear or something fashion you one out of some fine bear fur.
axed: (⚔ i'll laugh if i want)

Re: Video

[personal profile] axed 2014-02-24 08:10 am (UTC)(link)
[ She actually almost laughs. ]

I heard the bears around these parts are talkative. I'm interested to hear what they might have to say about that.

I'm sure they would be quite understanding about it all. They aren't just godless killing machines like the news media says. Besides, I am of the opinion it is better to ask forgiveness than ask permission.
axed: (⚔ addictions)

[personal profile] axed 2014-02-25 07:31 am (UTC)(link)
I'm with you on that one. Quit asking permission a while ago. It was bad for my health.

[personal profile] the_dead_pool2 2014-02-25 02:08 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, I mean if you are going to hear no anyway, you might as well accomplish what you need to first.
axed: (⚔ slasher smile)

[personal profile] axed 2014-02-28 06:54 am (UTC)(link)
Do people say no a lot to you, too?

[personal profile] the_dead_pool2 2014-02-28 05:37 pm (UTC)(link)
As a rule most people don't want to have their buildings blown up, security team taken out, and losing a lot of money.

[He gives a shrug]

It isn't no and more like Oh no! Not that guy again. No no no no, why me?! Why me?!

[He seems proud of this]
axed: (⚔ i'll laugh if i want)

[personal profile] axed 2014-03-09 07:19 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah? So why them? What do you do it for, just fun?
the_dead_pool2: (Common sense tingling)

[personal profile] the_dead_pool2 2014-03-09 11:34 am (UTC)(link)
Not just for fun, that is part of it. Also money. It does make the world go around, and it makes doing the vigilante thing into a profession. Besides, haven't you heard the rule, if you are good at something, don't do it for free?
