hey everyone!
i'm Uzumaki Naruto
um in my world we give family name first
so you can just call me Naruto!
listen…
i have an important question that i'd like to hear your opinions on
some people doubt this place is really the afterlife
and if we’re actually dead
but let’s say there’s a chance we can all return to our own dimensions, alive
…would you want to?
or would you prefer to stay here instead, permanently?
it’s kinda personal, so i get it if you wanna use the
uh
anonymous
thingy
just don’t ask me how to switch it on
because idk (that means i don’t know)
oh also
if anyone needs help with anything
or wants to tackle some missions together
i'm your shinobi!
[Sorry, Sasuke and Sakura. Naruto forgot the “keep our profession/backgrounds a secret” rule. (And already broke the rule several times over.)]

i need help with something. since you're offering.
i'm having trouble making friends. i could use detailed advice on how to attain some.
un: 火 / 🔒
If you're only going to mess with him, don't expect that I'll ignore it. You'll have to answer to me.
["I don't trust you not to be an asshole."]
no subject
all i did was ask a question in response to his offer. i didn't ask him to suck my cock. don't worry, your little kitten's mouth is reserved just for you.
no subject
Stop using that sort of crude language as a distraction. It won't affect me. Do you really intend to make friends?
no subject
of course i do. he has experience in such things, and you would begrudge me this knowledge. what inordinate and shameful cruelty. it's as if you wish for me to spend my time here alone.
no subject
[Yet Sasuke's beginning to wonder whether he has taken an unwarranted leap; it would not be the first. Is he being unfair? Suspicion and paranoia is too instinctive to give others the benefit of the doubt. His encounters with Laurent, however fraught, have also been few.]
That's not what I meant. Speak to whoever you want, it isn't my business. But you've certainly never demonstrated to me such a goodhearted intention.
no subject
[ sasuke has not taken an unwarranted leap, he is not being unfair, and it has not occurred to laurent to attempt to make friends with anyone. he is fully confident he can keep his shadow at bay without such connections — he has, after all, existed for an entire lifetime without them. ]
i doubt the pool of candidates vying to be your friend is large. your friend, on the other hand, seems to have more to offer.
no subject
[He knows Naruto is a better friend, and a better person, he hardly needs Laurent to tell him so.]
By saying that, it sounds as though you're hoping to use him for your own gain. Let me make it clear: That won't happen.
no subject
1/2

sure!
we gotta figure out what the problem is first though
are you shy?
or just weird
or maybe you're ugly?
i was informed the trio isn't hanging pls do not perceive my edits
i'm shy.
[ there was a version of him, once, that was. the sweet, bookish boy that used to trail behind his brother, adoring eyes turned upwards. that boy is long dead, but naruto doesn't know that. ]
everyone seems to be connecting already. some already came knowing each other.
you've connected with others, haven't you?
PERCEIVES 👀
but you reached out to a total stranger
and...
uh
you did it...the opposite of anonymously!
[Sasuke are you sure you still wanna suck his cock.]
i've formed bonds with people yeah
are you saying you came here alone?
nobody from your home?
it's okay though
i'll be friends with you!
what's your name?
sob
you seemed exceptionally kind to offer your help.
i came here alone. no one from my home is here.
[ if he'd had the choice, who would there even be to bring? all pressing thoughts of damen are swiftly cut, a rotten limb extracted and discarded. ]
do you mean to say there are people from your home that came with you? how did you manage that?
i'm laurent. i accept your friendship, but you'll have to give me some guidance on what exactly that would entail. i'm afraid i've not had many. or any at all.
no subject
but i don't know if we did anything specific to come together
and we're not all from the same date
Sakura-chan is from a year ahead of me and Sasuke...
don't worry
i didn't have any friends either for most of my life
you don't really need to do anything as my friend though
just chatting or hanging out every once in a while is enough
since you're shy, we can just talk like this!
what do you do back home laurent?
for work and for fun i mean
no subject
it's hard to imagine how you became friends with someone like sasuke. he's been difficult, to say the least.
for work? i'm a prince. someone is endeavoring to steal my throne, and i'm trying to keep my kingdom from war.
i don't recall the last time i had time for fun. when i was twelve, i'd guess. i used to race my brother on my pony, and he'd always let me win.
and you? for work and for fun?
no subject
[Laurent is spared from Naruto's wrath; "difficult" is inoffensive enough that it doesn't trigger furious defensiveness over his best friend's honor.]
just be persistent with him!
he seems cold at first but he has a huge heart
but because of that, he tries to keep people out of it
to protect himself
with that in mind, if you ever hurt him
i'll grind your bones into pulp and force feed it to you
[#believeit]
a prince huh? sounds boring...
how old are you now?
i can't really talk about what i do for work...
i guess you can say i'm a mercenary!
but it's more complicated than that...
as for fun, i like pulling pranks and taking baths at the bathhouse
and eating ramen!
the reality is that i don't have too much downtime for fun either though
maybe we can find something to do here together!
do you know how to swim?
no subject
he's stronger than me. i don't think i could hurt him.
[ he'll play the idiot for this if he needs to. ]
it is boring, much of the time. politics is a frustrating game.
i'm recently twenty. it's supposed to be the age of my ascension to king, but i'm here now. so i suppose that won't happen.
i do know how to swim. my brother taught me. i haven't been in some time, though.
if you're a mercenary, does that mean you're for hire? i could use some help with something.
i don't think the hierarchy can be trusted, and i'm looking for like-minded individuals who might be interested in unearthing some of their secrets. attempting to, at least.
it could be dangerous.
no subject
listen i know it's obvious that i'm not the brightest
but don't try to screw around with me about this
you know exactly what i mean when i talk about hurting him
it's not like i mentioned his big heart as if it's a physical target
politics ARE frustrating...
believe it or not i'm starting to get involved in my people's politics too
it doesn't come naturally to me so maybe you can give me some tips
as for ascending to king... what happened to the previous king?
guess he died? sorry if you were close to him
or her?
[That would be a queen, Naruto.]
i guess i AM for hire
no charge though when we're friends
so long as you're not a piece of shit
i'm definitely interested in what you're talking about
but i also don't think we should discuss it like this...
no subject
i really wouldn't worry. he has people in his corner looking out for him. clearly.
he helped me, when we first met. so i'm not inclined to bruise his very large heart.
[ he has never had anyone defend him so ferociously, not since he was small and auguste made sure he wasn't privy to the monstrous truth of the world. to witness this leaves an uncomfortable tightness in his chest, brittle and hollow. ]
i'd be willing to help. perhaps we could sit down sometime and you could explain in detail the structure of your politics.
there is rarely a one size fits all solution, as you know.
the previous king died. and then the crown prince died. and now there's me.
how are you involved in your people's politics?
my poor choices are already well known to the hierarchy, but i won't paint a target on your back. your interest is good enough for now.
if sasuke trusts you, then i don't see why i shouldn't, either.
