1st Report

[A]

[Immediately after leaving his cottage, Sasuke's eyes settle on the symbols on the mailboxes, taking in the different pictures. They're obviously markers of some sort - something he files away in the back of his mind right away, along with the pictures and their general order.

Although... one in particular bothers him. He stares for a moment at his own mailbox with a small frown.

He knows why it's a lock. He would have to be stupid not to. What's disturbing is that whoever created this world knew enough about him to choose a lock in the first place. In a strange place like this, there's no way it could possibly be coincidence.

...He doesn't like this place. Not one bit.

[B]

[So naturally, the best solution is to find himself a nice tall tree and climb it.

He looks right at home on his perch up there, one hand hanging onto the trunk for support, his feet resting sturdily on a branch thick enough to hold his weight. He gazes out as far as the eye can see, turning slowly turning to get a view of the entire island. He doesn't exactly blend; his white fleece pullover sort of stands out against the brown and the green. But it isn't as though he's making very much noise up there, either.

You may have to call out to catch his attention. Hopefully he's secure enough not to fall out of surprise or anything.

The young should not wear too deep a frown.

[The direction of that voice plus the footsteps should tell Sasuke that someone's approaching his right side.

Perhaps it's a little hypocritical for Zhang Liao to say such a thing, with him sporting so serious and stern a look himself, but he's not a kid.

Is there something off about those boxes? I have yet to check my own. [In fact, he'd been on the way to do just that when he saw Sasuke brooding away.]

My weapons of choice are twin axes. Likely that symbol is a reference to them or to my path as a warrior.

[Easy and obvious enough.]
800isenough: (Onward)

[He nods.] I will head out and search the outdoors then. We should be careful about what we touch when we're here though, as this place is supposed to be someone's Heart.
800isenough: (Doubt)

[personal profile] 800isenough 2016-01-06 02:33 pm (UTC)(link)
I shall see you around then. [And then it strikes Liao that he doesn't know the names of anyone in his group.]

Before we part, can I have your name? [It would be awkward to call him "young man" all the time.]
800isenough: (Talk)

[personal profile] 800isenough 2016-01-06 11:45 pm (UTC)(link)
[What a mouthful! Zhang Liao silently repeats that name to commit it to memory.]

Well met then, Sasuke Sagami. I am Zhang Liao. If you need any assistance, I will be there to render it.
800isenough: (Salute)

[personal profile] 800isenough 2016-01-07 02:12 am (UTC)(link)
[Close enough. Liao nods.]

Correct. [It's probably as foreign to the youth's tongue as the youth's name was to his. Anyway with introductions complete, it's time to get started with the task ahead of them.]

Then, let us not dawdle any longer. Take care, Sasuke. When next we meet, I hope I will have some good news for you.
