[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?

[suppressthedark]

Yeah, I know that.

[...well]

So, what's Konoha? the name of your town?

[video]

[kuramaless]

Right yeah, 'cause-- [He announced it to the whole world, yup.]

Yeah, that's right. It's a n--

Just a place.

[video]

[suppressthedark]

....okay.

[well he doesn't want to press about it, since he obviously doesn't want to talk about it.

But wait]

...What's with the forehead thing?

[video]

[kuramaless]

Yep.

[Yep Yep. Well, that, and Sasuke's been berating him.]

Uh, this? Oh! That's my hitai-ate. It's what you get when you become a ninja.

[See this proud grin!?]

I've had it since I graduated. Let's everyone know I'm a ninja from Konoha.

[video]

[suppressthedark]

[...way to tell him this gj naruto]

...doesn't that kind of defeat the point of being a ninja if you've got a reflective headband?

[video]

[kuramaless]

[;; Oops.]

Er-- Not really. Everyone's got 'em y'know?

[video]

[suppressthedark]

...Just so we're on the same page, ninja means a silent, steathy assassin in your world, right?

[Help this is confusing]

[video]

[kuramaless]

Huh? Well.

Ninjas use a bunch of techniques and stuff, you know? Er, with chakra?

[video]

[suppressthedark]

...What's Chakra?

[is that like reiatsu]

[video]

[kuramaless]

What's cha-- you don't know?

[Have sceptic look, Ichigo.]

Er, it's like energy I guess? You build it up to use it for jutsu. Man, it'd be easy if I could just show ya.

[Or if Sakura-chan was here to explain.]

I am the slowest it is me

[suppressthedark]

energy, huh...

[Thinking, thinking-hang on]

Okay, so is it like...see, in my world, we have something called Reiatsu. We use it to fight with, and in some cases you can actually force someone down with it. It's also tied to your life-force, so if you run out of it, you die. Is it kind of like that?

NUH UH.

[kuramaless]

Er.

Well, I'm pretty sure if you ran out you might-- die or something, I dunno.

Kinda sounds... like it a bit. It flows inside ya?

[suppressthedark]

Yeah. It comes from inside you, and I know some shinigami are able to do spells and stuff with it.

[SHRUGS!!!]

But I'm terrible at that kind of thing, so I never bothered learning.

[kuramaless]

Shinigami?

[Ping!]

Er. I used t'find it hard. You know to make the chakra do what I wanted it to? Guess it takes practice. [You know, and figuring out how to you know, work with two sets of chakra in there.]

[suppressthedark]

Yeah, shinigami.

[he shrugs.]

Well, I can fight and stuff just fine-I've got a bankai and everything. I just don't think kidou are for me.

[kuramaless]

You?

[Pulling a face for a moment and--]

I guess it doesn't matter if you're strong enough to do what y'need to do, yeah?
