Seventh Gate [Action/Video] (dated to the 23rd)

[Action]

[It has been far too long since Lee last saw Izumo Kamiki, during the Valentines experiment. It bothers him - after what he's been through with Rapunzel and Sakura, he has to see how things are with her. He's beginning to suspect she may be avoiding him, but he cannot let this continue forever. In such a situation, particularly for one who possesses ninja skillz, there are a number of reasonable options available. He could try to figure out where she resides and try to visit her there. Or he could simply try using a filtered message over the journals.

Lee chooses none of those options. Instead, he scours the library, every book he can find, in order to assemble an impressive mound of every book he can find that qualifies as a romance novel. Now he's absolutely certain that she must actually enjoy these books so it's only a matter of time. And to increase the chances? He clips out many pictures of baby foxes to form a trail leading to the pile of books. And so Lee hides behind the nearest bookshelf and peers through a gap between books in hopes that she will eventually come along in search of one of the novels. It is a plan completely lacking flaws.

Otherwise, he can be found at other points of the day jogging around various areas of Luceti or at the Battle Dome setting up a simulation with random enemies.]

[He takes to the journals at some point. With Kankuro recently arrived in Luceti, one primary thought on Lee's mi-]

Sakura-san, we should spar sometime soon!

[Okay, aside from that. One primary thought on Lee's mind has been the chance that Gaara could also appear in this place at any time. And clearly, the first thing on his mind would be an all-out rematch with Lee. So he decides to poll the people on their ideas.]

Also, other people of Luceti! I would like to pose a hypothetical challenge to you. Say you had to fight a man who could control sand itself! How do you think you would defeat him in the fairest way possible? For an extra challenge, you can restrain yourself from utilizing any special abilities!

[ooc: There should be an ooc post going up soon but just a heads up: Lee should be getting sent home for a canon update on Monday, and he'll return after the draft. It should also be noted that he may be very depressed for a time afterwards, so this post may be kind of the last hoorah of a joyful Lee for the time being.]

No. I'm not.

You asked how to defeat a sand user. Back home, this is best accomplished with water. A lot of water.

[As in drowning the guy.]

Saturate it enough, maybe to even slurry, and he should have a difficult time manipulating it, at least for a time til he adjusts, despite how much he infuses it with chakra. [Very familiar with chakra talk, this one is. Comes with hanging about you guys so long (and you know, having the remnants of a Kiri hunter nin echoing about one's brain)] Gives you an opening.

Though you don't approve of trickery? [That's a very strange sentiment from a shinobi.]

Well, after knowing the people of your world for so long, I've picked up a few things here and there.

[Quirking a brow.] Okay, fair enough. Personally to me, measuring my skills in deception against a rival would be another way of charting my progress if I was a shinobi, but it look like you're just interested in comparing strength.

Mmhmm. The village is a melting pot in a way. We all start picking up aspects of each other's worlds.

[Proving your worth simply to allowed to be a ninja in other words.] Aa, you follow the philosophy of hard work trumps all else, then.
