[1] Ramen Bowl | Friday 12th February

[He's not really looking at his communicator. It's been abandoned on the floor beside him - he'd meant to record something-- but the moment he'd thought of something to say, he'd gotten side tracked.

With his shirt up, he's staring down at his stomach, pulling a face much like a childish pout.]

Oi, K'rama. It's about time ya talk t'me yanno? I ain't heard nothin' outta ya since we got here. We're both here, so you should at least lemme know what you think about this place.

[Cue a quick prod to the centre of his stomach-- He doesn't seem convinced though. As he shouldn't be. Kurama is not with him. He knows that much.]

[Lee isn't afraid of a little searching! He never gives up!]

Alright! Just do not go anywhere and I will find you!

... Where d'ya think I'm gonna go!? Not like I can go home.

[Context, what is this!?]

I mean do not go inside where I will not be able to spot you!

Oh.

Well, yeah! I ain't stupid!

[Lee did not have an answer for that, both due to time and because he didn't want to run the risk of saying something rude. He was already on a mission! A mission to find one lost boy in the urban jungle of Death City.

... Which didn't take too long, since Lee was still pretty fast and Naruto was always loud enough to stick out in the middle of a crowd.

Dropping down from a roof to the ground beside the blond shinobi, Lee landed in a crouch then straightened up.]

Quick! Tell me! What was my time?

Edited 2012-07-05 18:34 (UTC)

[Oh good. He's not sure he could deal with having to yell for being picked on again today.

But by the time he sees Lee and the question is posed he ends up just staring, dumbly.]

Er... Like a few minutes?

YOSH! This is the result of my constant training!

[Lee pumps his arm. That's likely going to be as specific as he could hope from Naruto. At least "a few minutes" could be a decent time.]

Now then! It is time for us to find the Ramen shop! Come, Naruto! Let's race around the city in search of noodles! First to find the ramen stall is the winner!

[You are still so weird. Which is why you're getting a look</> Oh-- but hey wait did you just say Ramen?]

Oh! Hey yeah--!

Er. Hold on a minute, you wanna run or something?

Why not? It is good exercise, and eating ramen will be adding on a great many calories!

[Gotta balance things out somehow.]

[Running?! On an empty stomach like his? Er, just to highlight the severity of the situation his stomach grumbles.]

Er-- Well, I guess it won't be that bad?

[Yes it will!]

Come along, Naruto-kun! Let your hunger fuel your drive!

[Lee, that's not how it works for normal people...]

[Grumble grumble.

Er, that's both him and his stomach.]

Where're we gonna go?

Wherever the wind takes us!

[That's bullshit for I HAVE NO IDEA! But it gives him a brilliant one.]

Naruto-kun! We should scout across the entire city and acquaint ourselves with every nook and cranny! We are sure to find a ramen stand if we leave no stone unturned!

[At that, he just holds out his arms, as if the wind really is going to pick him up and take him somewhere.

How can this guy want to scout out the whole city!? That would take weeks!]

Oi Lee-- Let's just yanno find the nearest ramen stand, yeah?

[It would take only a few days if you have the tenacity and inherent ability to go for days without needing to stop for a break! ~~So you would have to be Lee or Gai to survive it.~~]

Roger! First ramen stand! Then, SCOUT OUT THE WHOLE CITY!

[HE DOESN'T HAVE A FEW DAYS, HE HAS A FEW MINUTES, BEFORE HIS WHOLE BODY DIES FROM STARVATION. Don't you see!?]

Or, yanno we could just--- go get ramen then go back home? Or, well yanno to the apartments?

Oh. [Right. Naruto doesn't know where anything is. Probably best not to overwhelm him today.]

Then I will drop you off after we finish our ramen adventure! But I must definitely scout out this spiraling city for my own personal training!

[Yeah. OH. He just starts walking - in any direction, really.]

I thought you already knew it? Runnin' around a bunch of times ain't gonna help remember where stuff is.

[One direction is as good as any!]

Perhaps if you do not pay attention!

[Hopefully. Let's see where it takes us, huh?]

You really gonna be able to remember all the shops and stuff?

[Who knows? They might get lucky!]

I will endeavor to do so! And if I fail, I will need only to run refresher laps around the area!

[Even if Lee ever adopted Gai's awful memory for faces, Lee was trained in being vigilant of other things, especially of his surroundings!]

[There had to be ramen around here somewhere. He could smell it.]

Yeah, but you probably won't fail though, will ya?

[It's not said with a smile though, just one of those odds looks. You're so weird.]

[Then lead on, oh ramen bloodhound!]

That is the plan!

[He's so used to looks like that, he merely gives Naruto a thumbs up.]

[Whoa, swiftly turning a corner there. Not that he really knows where he's going, not even by the smell.]

Would be kinda stupid to think you're gonna fail before you even start. I dunno, it'll be hard right?

[Don't give him a thumbs up! You're crazy!]

[Lee is following Naruto, but keeping his eyes open for a shop.]

Why would you think that? Diligence and knowing one's surroundings are key to successful defensive precautions!

[Seriously, this is normal.]
