17th Tomoe || Video, Action for House of Minnie

[beforethedarkness]

[Sasuke's sitting on his bed when the video goes on, and he's holding an egg... With a Dratini hanging around his shoulders and looking at the camera?

Looks kind of small though. Maybe a baby Dratini? Whatever it is, it looks interested in the camera -- and said camera gets pulled away briefly before the focus returns to Sasuke, and in his free hand -- oh hey his cast is gone! -- He's holding up a silver ticket that a lot of trainers seem to have gotten...]

What's the point of going to a party like this or there being a party like this in the first place? It seems like a huge waste of time.

[Sasuke, in other words, is asking what's so special about Prom. Care to explain?]

Comments

[beforethedarkness]

... Lightning mentioned that this is the first time they're opening up this location ever earlier.

[Hm...]

The Gym Leaders will be there too.

[More and more... Seems like an infiltration mission.]

Video;

[believeit]

It wouldn't kill you to actually go do something fun for one day of your life, y'know.

Oh! [And slightly off topic but] Go punch your stupid cousin for me!

Voice - Private

[for_realsies]

I kinda figured that out. People aren't your idea of fun huh?

You don't have to if you don't want to, but I think you should give it a try. I mean... it is just a huge exclusive blowout party being thrown by a gym leader in an exotic hard to reach location with all sorts of powerful trainers. It isn't the end of the world if you don't go.

But... I think everyone would like to see you try?

Video;

[beforethedarkness]

... Why.

[Suspicious... And totally ignoring the fun thing, because he wouldn't have fun at all. Nope.]

Video;

[believeit]

'Cause he keeps spreading lies about me!

[Not going to directly say what he keeps telling people because wow awkward]

ACTION

[usedswift]

[Waiting until Obito is gone because embarrassing as hell the other day, thanks. She just pokes her head in with a smile.]

Did you already get enough reasons to go, or did you want more?

[itsjustdust]

Sooo, lots of perks and not really any drawbacks to going. Hey. So. It's a thing right?

Voice - Private

[beforethedarkness]

[He doesn't answer the first question, just humming and breathing out a sigh after Immy's done.]

I said I don't want to, not that I'm not going.

Video;

[beforethedarkness]

What lies?

[Nope Naruto, if you want it to happen you've gotta say it.]

[beforethedarkness]

So what's a thing?

Video;

[believeit]

...Does it matter? He knows what he's done.

[Stalling...]

ACTION

[beforethedarkness]

It doesn't matter what reasons I have or don't have, I'm stuck going either way.

Video;

[beforethedarkness]

I'm not punching him for no reason, dobe.

Voice - Private

[for_realsies]

*That first question was rhetorical, she's noticed you're more than a little anti-social. Imogen has also just failed her conceal excitement check.*

Hee! *cough* Look, I'm sure it'll be fine! And even if you don't have funfun it won't be a total waste of time!

I rhymed so it must be true! But... I can help you find a spot to get away from all the people? I mean, if you want my help.

ACTION

[usedswift]

[Oh... ouch.]

Well... why don't you want to go? I mean, if they're good reasons, I guess you could stay behind.

Voice - Private

[beforethedarkness]

I can manage that alone.

[WHY DO YOU HAVE TO BE SO MEAN, DUCKBUTT.]

[itsjustdust]

That we're going. [Bright smile and leaning in.] Right? Cause I gotta get clothes for this thing.

ACTION

[beforethedarkness]

[Noticing that look Tenten, what'd he do??]

...

It takes time away from training...

...

Not used to parties.

Video;

[believeit]

[URGH. FINE. You wanted to know.]

He keeps telling people we're a thing! And I can't punch him 'cause I'm all the way over here!

Video;

[beforethedarkness]

It's your fault he thinks that in the first place, moron. You told him about those accidents, didn't you?

Voice - Private

[for_realsies]

If you're sure...

[beforethedarkness]

[Cousin you're getting kinda close there...]

...

Not like I have a choice, is it.

ACTION

[usedswift]

[What look you saw nothing.

She doesn't bother to refute the first point, instead just leaning against the wall near the door.]

Me, either. Big parties, I mean. I'd always wanted to go to one, and there'll be so many cool things there. It's the chance to do something you usually wouldn't get to, right? What's so bad about that?

Voice - Private

[beforethedarkness]

...

I'm going to be in disguise, anyway.

Voice - Private

[for_realsies]

What are you going to do about your hair?

And will your mask cover that scowl of yours? It's pretty distinctive.
