WHO: Luke fon Fabre (
headfons) and Gaara of the Desert (
no_dreams_for_you).
WHAT: Luke asked to meet with Gaara to explore the city, and then maybe grab a bite to eat, later.
WHEN: After this thread.
WHERE: Garden Park- at the pond.
STATUS: Closed.
Guess who's running a little late, at first?
After parting ways with Ryuuji, Luke had immediately headed for the park...only to find himself on, apparently...the opposite side of town. Crap, how had that even happened?? Well, luckily, Luke had started towards the park a little earlier than he'd expected.
Okay, so...
...that saved him from being no more than five minutes behind schedule in heading that way. Yeeeah...hopefully, Gaara hadn't been waiting too long. Because, if he was going to be late, even a small blessing would have been a blessing. Sporting a frustrated expression, the replica outright ran the entire way to the pond. Thank goodness, he was in good shape. According to the clock that he caught glimpse of, on the way, he was actually making up for the whole...being late thing. By the time he arrived, in spite of the fact that his face was coated in sweat, there was a bit of a grin on his face. Why? Because he'd actually managed to make it there on time. Thank Lorelei, because how rude would it have been to invite someone out, then have them waiting on you. And, it was someone he was trying to make friends with. Even better.
When he spotted the other redhead, the grin didn't fade one bit. Giving a wave of his hand, calling out the other teen's name, he rushed up. Panting a bit, he stopped just a couple of feet away, hands dropping to his knees. He had to catch his breath a moment, before he was able to straighten out and speak, "Man, I was a little worried I'd be late. I got turned around on the way here."
Yeeeeah, he could have messaged Gaara, instead of running the entire way. Details, though (in other words, he didn't think of that...)

“One should always seek to improve his abilities,” he answered vaguely, neither confirming nor denying his skill level. He usually displayed arrogance in battle, as a tactic of intimidation toward his opponents. With this type of scenario, he had no reason to speak in that manner to Luke.
“Jade is one of your friends, from your home world.” A rather obvious conclusion to draw, based on the information presented. And then, when Luke fell quiet, Gaara’s gaze grew more intent. He recognized signs of nostalgia. Quite a few residents from the facility had shown similar symptoms before. He certainly wouldn’t deny missing Suna, his villagers, and even his council, at (rare) times. It had been a struggle, at first, to find a new purpose for living, when he knew little else, apart from his occupation as a ninja.
His voice softened with sympathy and understanding, when he replied, “Not necessarily. You are far away from those you care for, and from your home, as well. There is no certainty, with regards to the duration of your stay in this world.”
…But he won’t linger on the unsettling topic for long. It would be best if Luke tried to move forward and adjust to his new life in this city. At least, for the time being, until he could return to his home world.
“Honing ninja techniques requires a great deal of training. Some abilities took years to master, while others, a much shorter period of time.” Gaara paused as his look suddenly turned curious. “And yourself? What types of techniques… rather, Artes, have you acquired?”
