Tenth Gate [Voice/Action]

[What connects the phrases "Rock Lee" and "dislocated knee", aside from the fact that they rhyme? Well, the two things are part of the same person after Rock Lee tried to fight off the droids when the time came to come to the moon. And why did he feel so compelled to resist them? Well, such a pain in his heart comes out soon enough. Once he finds that the journal is still on his person and is still working, he shouts into it the reason:]

[Voice]

GAI-SENSEI AND TENTEN... THEY'VE GONE HOME!


Feel free to weep. Gai-Sensei never saw shame in shedding tears of youth, after all, and I am sure that they will be missed dearly. At home, they will fight on bravely.

In addition to our current predicament, I understand that it is almost Halloween. Many worlds refer to it as the 'holiday of disguise'. A very appropriate holiday for the ninja, don't you think? Furthermore... I shall honor Gai-Sensei by disguising myself as him.

[Action: Throughout Event]

[It's odd. Lee does not feel alone, as he expected to. But he feels afraid of the very possibility of feeling that. So, there's less attention to personal space than ever - and he's seeking out friends new and old as he travels through Malnosso World. You may even find him towing around a reluctant NPC friend. He's the least impaired by the power cap as well, since all of his strength and speed is from personal training. He makes regular lap around the area in search of more companions, while constantly ignoring his knee's pain. And if you catch him on Halloween, you'll certainly find him dressed as Maito Gai. Which... does not look very different.

In Cartoon Land, he trains! What better way to make use of the complete lack of physics than to perform impossible feats and absurd spars with them? Beware as he challenges passersby into battles that will often take place in fight clouds!

In Bubble Land, he examines the surroundings and takes notes! Not to mention that he winds up going on the love-paddle rides. In fact, it almost becomes like an addiction because of the way it puts his fear at ease.

In Casino Land, he takes his hand at games of chance! With spectacular failure. And he may just need to be held back whenever he tries attacking a machine in frustration. He has better luck at the food court, where he collects all the curried dishes for himself - including all of the weirdest ones. He spends more time here after the Halloween incident.

In Junior Land, it's time to relive the most youthly part of youth! He checks out most of the attractions but focuses on the bumper cars, sparing no mercy towards his rivals. He spends time in Thrill Land and Halloween Land as well. Trying out all the death-defying rides! Being the most impatient youth in line! Murder mysteries!

He spends his offtime at a villa inhabited by Usopp, Shikamaru and Luke Triton. He may feel the need to camp out in some of their rooms on different nights, and it all builds up to the Halloween Incident: when Usopp brings him sake, the result is a drunken Lee who wrecks the villa.]

[Well, now it's not a wise move... Konan isn't angry, though. It's not as if she's going to lose anything of importance. A couple of the other people playing at the table look mildly amused and another raises the bet up to seventy-five.

Since he gave her away anyway, Konan just moves on as if this was all part of her plan.

I was trying to demonstrate how to bluff effectively while playing this game, Lee. I'm sorry if I didn't make that clear.

[She motions for him to come closer so she can whisper to him.]

[Konan speaks quietly, with her hand blocking her mouth from the view of everyone else at the table in case there are any lip-readers present.

It's probably best to get this explanation out of the way and to frame it in a particular way so that Lee will be able to have some fun with this and won't be distressed if he sees anyone, including her, cheating.

This is a game of deception, and some may even employ sleight of hand to sneak in cards that will let them win. Officially, the rules don't allow for cheating, but I've seen at least three people do just that and no one is losing out on any real money. Think of this game as a harmless training exercise.
