jikogisei[The video feature flicks on but it's completely black and is silent for a minute. Perhaps it was done on accident. But wait, no, that's not the case. There's a man's voice, unidentifiable except to those who know him. Either way, he sounds unamused.]
A world where you collect animals and let them do the fighting for you. Seems cruel. Or perhaps you just don't see it that way. Using creatures to collect ridiculous badges. What good will it do you when you leave this place? If you leave this world.
[Itachi pauses, silence fills the moment.]
How many of you still continue your own physical training as you level up your creatures? Would you be capable of taking down your enemy without the aide of your Pokemon? Would you be satisfied if you couldn't? [Yes, Sasuke. Those last two questions were specifically aimed towards you.]
It also appears that the dead walk among us. [Does he know about the other shinobi or simply referring to himself -- hard to tell. Some might not even recognize him by voice alone. So finally he shifts it around to reveal his face. Itachi doesn't have the hitae-ai sitting upon his forehead like usual and his surroundings are hard to pinpoint. The maroon cloak he's wearing doesn't help as it covers the rest of his clothes.]
[He sighs as if this is all a big bother or an annoyance.] I suppose it's only polite to introduce myself. My name is Uchiha Itachi.

Date: 2013-04-24 03:08 am (UTC)I think I can see why I would have wanted to. But I need to hear it from him. Not some half-assed theories I came up with.
I need to know the real truth.

Date: 2013-04-24 03:09 am (UTC)It seems this place has no issue bringing the dead back to life. [His cousin, the Hokage's wife, him.]
The guide is appreciated, Aradia.

Date: 2013-04-24 03:10 am (UTC)That's correct. They are family.

Date: 2013-04-24 03:14 am (UTC)It seems he might know more then you believe. Or simply suspects.
[But it's good to know exactly when Sasuke's from.]

Date: 2013-04-24 03:14 am (UTC)[ She's not actually annoyed about it; that's still said with a grin. It's actually more teasing than anything else. ]
Of course, my own culture might make my opinion on it different from yours! I do not plan to ever fight with anyone on a personal level myself, but many of my partners like the training and the battles, so I participate to the degree they need me to do so. Which is mostly as a tactician!
Ah, it also changes any non-humans into humans, and any powers you previously had won't be yours any longer. I'm not sure if anyone thought to mention that, since it appears they are discussing other things with you!
You're welcome, Itachi!
[Voice- Private]
Date: 2013-04-24 03:14 am (UTC)[Something else that is understandable is that fact that nothing is going to stop Sasuke from going to him, bar physical force.]
If you're gonna go, I'm not gonna stop you. I'd go too but Yumi, she's still sleeping and me and Shino've got to look after her.
[video]
Date: 2013-04-24 03:15 am (UTC)I'll just have to make sure we're all strong enough so things like that won't happen, then. [And if her Emolga were presently on her head as it's been fond of doing since she received it, it probably would have thrown in its own two cents in concurrence.] And if badges are a goal that they want to pursue as well, then I'll train myself just as much as I train my Pokemon, even if it includes being electrocuted or set on fire.
[Ahem.] That's all I can think to do at this point, I'm pretty much on my own here until this place decides to send me home. If it's going to. What will you do?

Date: 2013-04-24 03:16 am (UTC)[ Once upon a time before this happened. He's still pretty pissed about that.
Anyway, that's not important. He's stealing a good look at Itachi from the other end of the feed. ]
Uchiha Itachi... [ No, he was pretty sure that name didn't ring any bell. ] I have never heard of you before. [ Not that he was going to be a gentleman about introductions and tell Itachi his name-- Yet Sasori couldn't help but wonder if this Uchiha Itachi knew him. ]

Date: 2013-04-24 03:16 am (UTC)I seeeeee! Obi-chan's a good friend, though we haven't happened to be in the same place just yet.
I'm Mitsukuni Haninozuka! Ah, or Haninozuka Mitsukuni, though I usually say it the western way here. You can call me Honey, though.
Re: video; private
Date: 2013-04-24 03:20 am (UTC)He's coming to you, by the way. I'm not gonna try to stop him, it would be pointless.
[Voice- Private]
Date: 2013-04-24 03:22 am (UTC)[Breathing out a low sigh.]
I'll come back after.
[LOCKED Video]
Date: 2013-04-24 03:24 am (UTC)[He should have waited until his week was up so he could get away without consequence.]
[Obviously someone's told Sasuke something from everything Itachi's getting. This version of his brother is much like the last one he saw, the one who followed him into a battle just to get his answers. There was no way Sasuke would let this go.]
Goldenrod City. Outside the stadium.
[Voice- Private]
Date: 2013-04-24 03:25 am (UTC)[He pauses again, mulling over whether to say the next part or not.]
There's a lot of stuff I haven't told you but. If you want to know sometime, just ask me and I'll tell you.
[VIDEO | locked ]
Date: 2013-04-24 03:28 am (UTC)Nothing. [It's the truth. Itachi has lived through not one but two deaths, both right next to Sasuke. There isn't anything he was wants from Sasuke anymore - just what he wants for him.]
[LOCKED Video/Action]
Date: 2013-04-24 03:30 am (UTC)[He was winded, but rolled to his feet, following and yelling at the top of his lungs in the general direction he last saw Kushina go as he rushed to grab his bag and pokemon.]
KUSHINA-NEE, I'LL VID YOU LATER, FOLLOWING SASUKE!
[LOCKED Video/Action]
Date: 2013-04-24 03:33 am (UTC)I'll be there in a few days.
[Voice- Private]
Date: 2013-04-24 03:34 am (UTC)[VIDEO | locked ]
Date: 2013-04-24 03:34 am (UTC)Because he's right, and she knows it, too. There's a reason all of them have been training their taijutsu as well as their Pokémon.]
Then why post like this?

Date: 2013-04-24 03:34 am (UTC)[No changing it now however.]
Yes, I'm aware. I told him where I was.

[LOCKED Video]
Date: 2013-04-24 03:55 am (UTC)Call me when you get here. I have other things to do than stand around waiting for you.
[Unfortunately.]
[VIDEO | locked ]
Date: 2013-04-24 03:59 am (UTC)[Of course he is. He knows Sasuke very well.]
I have no reason to cower away in fear from him.
[If Sasuke knows he's here then he train harder and longer in order to defeat him. Or at least that had been the purpose when this started.]
