Fourth Gate [Action/Video]

[Action]

[Lee is back in action on a brand new day. In the morning, before performing his usual workouts, he takes some time to prepare curried chicken soup to deliver to Rapunzel, assuming she still has her cold. And afterwards, amongst his jogs around the village and general intense workout routines, he takes some more time to prepare for his and Sora's Christmas plan.

Ever since that talk with Sora, Lee has set a new goal for himself and has started undergoing preparations. He doubts that this "Santa" will show up here in Luceti; so he plots to become Santa. He stops at the library and reads several books to get ideas of what different worlds and cultures think of this man, who must be nothing other than a Hokage-class ninja. Maybe even more powerful... His other stops include the item and clothing shops to collect accessories associated with this holiday, often with not-so-subtle attempts to be covert. He may spend some time people watching for signs of actions both benevolent or dubious. And finally, he spends some time running along the beach to collect as many seashells as he can carry to help Sora make them into what he calls "wayfinders".

But even so, he feels uneasy about this plan. What if there are key parts of Santa's legacy he is missing? How is he supposed to determine the difference between nice and naughty? And what if they want something other than seashells? So he decides to take to the journals, without playing his hand.]

Rock Lee here! Konoha's Beautiful Green Wild Beast! And I come with good news for this holiday season. I have it on good authority that the one known as "Santa" shall be arriving for the beloved Christmas holiday! And - and I am doing my best to act as his ears, eyes, mouth and every other body part! So, I will accept any intelligence that you have freely. For example, the sleeping schedules of yourselves and others, and who you would classify as "nice" or "naughty", including your own honest assessment of yourself. Finally, what would your ideal Christmas present be? I can communicate all of your wishes to the mighty Santa-sama all in due time!

[screw_fate]

... Lee, Why do you need to know people's sleeping schedules?

[Is his roommate turning into a stalker or something 8|]

[reminded]

[How enterprising.]

I'm certain Mr. Claus will appreciate the assistance. Have you been in contact with him?

[rashness]

You know Santa?!


...Santa is real?!

[Voice]

[endgames]

...Ino's cousin? What's he have to do with any of this?

[Wow he was only unconscious for five days, what did he miss.]

[bossybrows]

At this point I think you might be actually insane.

... Santa will be coming even here..?

[ It's difficult to tell whether she's amazed by the fact or not, honestly, since.. well, it's Kotomi, so she seems as blank as ever about all of this. ]

Hello again Rock Lee.

[Chun-Li waves at the camera, smiling]

You...don't know about Santa, at all? Do they not have traditions like Christmas in Konoha?

[weakahoshi]

What is Christmas?

[She's just going to ignore the rest of what he said... People sleep at night, obviously, and everyone is nice.]

[stilldontgotit]

...Wait. Are you serious about this?

[Lee, you can't be serious. This is so over the top it has to be ironic humor or something.]

[song_princess]

Why do you want to know such things? [Oh goddess, Lee that is such a creeper thing to ask about sleeping schedules.]

[Video]

[ilyana]

[Oh Lee, why? Why do you do this? You had been so high up on Ilyana's cool people list!]

Umm... can I see if I have this correct? You wish to know people's sleep patterns, you wish to know who here is naughty, and you want to act as every part of another person's body?

...

[floralogy]

How are you even sure he's coming here?

[Video] I meant to do this sooner! Sorry Gore

[windandrain]

[Saori blinked at the camera, completely and totally lost by whatever it was this...Rock Lee was going on about.]

You...want to know how I sleep, and...what I want for Christmas?

Action;BECAUSE OBVIOUSLY WE NEED MORE OF THIS DORKINESS XD

[heartisabattleground]

[Well, Sora's got the same idea in mind. He's going around in the morning collecting shells and what not for the wayfinder gifts. When he's going around in the morning he see's a very familiar sight. Well, look who's going around doing what he's doing.]

Lee, I was hoping I'd run into you!

[hollower]

[Sleeping...schedules? What on Earth would anyone want with that?! That's really, really creepy! And Perona usually likes creepy things! Wh-Whatever, she'll just answer the part about gifts and not bother with the other, weirder questions.]

...I want money, for starters. A mountain of riches, or at least a million berri! Or if not that, then some elegant clothing, or a cute little bat! Maybe a big, fuzzy spider, too! Ah, or a bag filled with my favorite sweets and candy!

[Leagues better than days previous but still on the mend, Rapunzel is sitting in her living room, curled up in a blanket with a book when she hears a knock at her door. Now, who could that be...?

She sets the book down but keeps the blanket around her shoulders, crossing to open the door and grinning at Lee when she sees him there.]

Good morning, Rockly! [She sniffles.]
