[Hello, Asgard. Here, have a set of bright blue eyes, perhaps a little too close to the communicator screen. The moment the feed starts however, he pulls back - blinking at the thing in his hands.

That’s when the shot twists, and he finally settles for grinning at the screen.]

Yo! So, this place really is super grey, y'know?

I got a bracelet thing, and this--! I guess everyone else got one too right? Er. Lesse, lesse. Oh! Yeah, I’m Uzumaki Naruto, from Konoha. Ya probably dunno where that is. Hey! Unless there’s other people from back home?

[As if an idea has hit him he frowns, and looks away before turning back again.]

How do I know if people are gonna talk to me on this?

Ummm... almost nine months, I think? It's been a while.

[kuramaless]

Whoa--

Okay, that's ages.

[Audio filtered now]

[occulthymns]

Yeah, I guess it is....

[Audio filtered now]

[kuramaless]

Aren't you like-- homesick or anything?

[Audio filtered now]

[occulthymns]

That's kind of a personal question, don't you think?

[Audio filtered now]

[kuramaless]

Guess that means y'are?

[Audio filtered now]

[occulthymns]

Maybe a little. Sometimes.

[Audio filtered now]

[kuramaless]

We'll get home soon, yeah?

Just gotta stop this war.

[Audio filtered now]

[occulthymns]

Easier said than done. But I'm sure staying optimistic can't hurt.

[Audio filtered now]

[kuramaless]

If me an' you just talkin' helps I guess it can't be that hard right?

Or to stay positive!

[Audio filtered now]

[occulthymns]

Are you always this positive?

[Audio filtered now]

[kuramaless]

Huh?

Oh-- Well, you know. There's no point in mopin' about it right?

[Audio filtered now]

[occulthymns]

No, but it's hard not to become jaded because of these stupid gods.

[Audio filtered now]

[kuramaless]

Yeah.

I guess you've been here a long time, you know, huh?

[Audio filtered now]

[occulthymns]

Yeah. At first I didn't mind them, but now I can't stand them.

[Audio filtered now]

[kuramaless]

Oh.

That sounds pretty bad.

You're still tryin' to help 'em win this war though?

[Audio filtered now]

[occulthymns]

... I don't know anymore.

[Audio filtered now]

[kuramaless]

You can't just stop.

You'll never get home that way, right?

[Audio filtered now]

[occulthymns]

I don't know what to do, honestly. But there has to be a third option. It can't just be 'on the god's side' or 'on the other side'.

[Audio filtered now]

[kuramaless]

[Actually - the turmoil is something he can relate to. Not that it's too similar, but struggling with 'sides'...]

I guess you just gotta do what's best for you, right?

[Audio filtered now]

[occulthymns]

You'd think that, right? But if those gods aren't lying then not helping them means our worlds die....

[It isn't an easy situation.]

[Audio filtered now]

[kuramaless]

... D'ya think maybe there's like a god that tells all the gods what to do?

[Audio filtered now]

[occulthymns]

There's Odin. I think he's in charge of all the Asgard gods.

[Audio filtered now]

[kuramaless]

You asked him?

[Audio filtered now]

[occulthymns]

No, but he gives off the impression.
