breezing | three whirlwinds. VIDEO + ACTION.

[ Strange. Definitely very strange. Ikki knew the room, because it was hers, but it wasn't right. Things weren't there, or were cleaned away, and although she searched around for it, she couldn't find her box or her clothes or even her sister. No matter how hard she tried to think about it, she couldn't really make things mesh in her head.

...Oh well! Humming softly to herself, Ikki opens the journal, going to her favourite setting - video. She doesn't look overly worried, although she's more or less baffled - she fully expects someone will find her and explain things, or at least tell her where to go. ]

Jinoraaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa! D'you have my things? Or does someone else? 'Cause I can't find 'em. Or you, so I'm using this, although I dunno the chances of you reading this book instead of another book. [ Pouting. It would be so much easier if her sister weren't constantly buried in books. At least there's a very good chance some of her other family members will see this. At least, that's the entire plan - so far as Ikki plans anything. ]

Y'know, I could have really important news and you'd miss it 'cause I can't find you! I mean, I don't. I think. I mean, I guess I sorta do, but not ACTUALLY and if you'd read this you'd probably KNOW it already. I mean, I can probably think of some! But anyway my POINT is that now I'm gonna have to run over to the library 'cause that's probably where you are, and if you aren't I'm basically gonna have to run around everywhere instead 'cause maybe you decided to go sit and read on a bench but how do I know if you did, you know? And it's not like I know all the little places you could be or might be 'cause I'm not totally sure about that right now and anyway this is a bigger area to check than usual which is ANNOYING 'cause I don't know where you are for SURE and you might not be where I think you are and you might not even be where I don't think you are, and that gets CONFUSING.

[ Apparently that was all on one breath, because she has to pause to take another, still gesturing vaguely with her hands. ] Or! I guess I'll go check for my clothes first, 'cause the dress is nice an' all but at least that'd be some of my things down, I guess? An' that's on the way anyway, so I guess that works! But! If you're not here, then you might be there? I mean, 'cause where else would you sleep? [ She's not even really talking to her sister any longer, if she ever was. Hrm. ] 'Kay! So I'll go get my clothes, and then go back and check if you're at the other house. [ Aaaand that's a wrap. Video function ended. Feel free to hit her up in journals/on the path of House 58 > shops > House 56, if you want. ]

[ACTION; HOUSE 56]
[ And post picking up her clothing, Ikki wanders back to her second household - which was the first, a little while back - to locate any of the relatives she hadn't managed to find to begin with. She does not actually knock on the door, but will just go inside and track down anyone who is there. And also probably take an apple or something to eat. ]

Why yes, darling, it is.

Is there gonna be a party? Ohhhh, I haveta make him something. He's the best ninja! And Lee said the best ninja becomes Hokage you know so I bet he's gonna be that someday!

Sahahaha, don't tell him that, he'd be offended! I assure you, it'll just annoy him! [But he keeps laughing. and as he calms down] As for a party, I'd consider it, but I feel like something is going to come up.

[The Mission they are on from the 21st to the 23rd, that is]

Why's that? [ What is it with people and avoiding birthday parties here, sheesh. ] Hmmmm, well! I'll be sure to make a present anyway! Are you doing anything special?

Being Hokage? That's just a "troublesome" thing, isn't it?

[A tongue click] At least far less so than the gift I'm giving him.

What d'you mean troublesome? [ fun fact: Shikamaru hasn't really used the term too much around Ikki. Which is odd, given that it describes her pretty accurately. ]

What's the gift you're giving?

The gift of a secret shortcut, one that can be used to avert the dreaded "troublesome" hike that this dear friend of mind is always avoiding.

Shikamaru doesn't like hikes?

Shikamaru doesn't like work. If he didn't like his name I swear he'd hate it for being too long.

Reaaaaaaaally? Well, I guess mostly when I see him we play! Except that time we made food for Katara's birthday!

It's okay, he likes kids. Specially little girls, and not even in the lolicon way.

What's lolicon?

Mmmm...

[An then he delays. He's humming on then other end of the line for five minutes as he vainly makes a filter he knows Shikamaru could hack if he was rude. He's hoping that the five minutes of humming before he filters, where he hums an offbeat whole version of this song will discourage him from trying that long.

But then!] Regardless, the point is that I'll be giving him a shortcut to see his elk kindred! It's a big deal, but you ought not tell him, right?!

[ wow that song is now stuck in her head, and she might have hummed along after a little thanks Masaomi ]

Waaaaaait, so what's a lolicon? I won't tell him 'bout the elk thing, though!

Do you know what an elk is?!

[...Yes we are just going on with this. She'll eventually forget]

A weird earth animal that's not a half of anything I can think of!

But that's not what I asked about!

[ stellar plan really ]

It's like a deer...

but huge.

Bigger than his pet deer? I'm supposed to get to meet him!

Fiiiiiiine, I'll ask someone else!

[..........Shit.

Three minute pause as he stalks this entry to find it. Hopefully she won't ask someone in person]]

Ooooh, Rikumaru's a bit of a mistake call there. He's enormous and a ninja.

Yep! Shikamaru told me! Ummmm I don't know what ninja deer do, though, y'know?

You know how most animals actually aren't all that smart against all that they tell you in stories? Like, they can only obey simple commands and have primitive loyalty to people?

Ummmm, most of the animals I know are really smart and loyal!

...Really?

You've met Appa and Momo, right? And Korra's polar bear dog, Naga, I think she's suuuuuuuuuper smart and strong and loyal!

[ ...most of the animals she knows are sidekicks to main or secondary characters. ]
