A library situated in the heart of the village. It has multiple scrolls on various jutsu and a lot of clans and bloodlines.
Posted: Tue Jul 29, 2014 10:22 am
The small shinobi made his way into the jutsu archive of his village. He searched throughout the building for various scrolls of techniques. He had obtained three: a Katon scroll, a Universal Ninjutsu scroll, and a Genjutsu scroll. These three would be enough for now, including the two family scrolls he already had. It was time to start learning some things. He first began by opening up a scroll on his lineage with the Shikotsumyaku bloodline. There were currently two Gennin level techniques he wished to learn. He planned to begin with the Ten Finger Drilling Bullets technique.(1/4) With ease he read the scroll. He did so slowly and steadily in order to absorb all the information required for such a technique. It wouldn't be too hard at all; he just always wanted to be sure of what he was doing.(2/4) He rolled back up the scroll. The boy then began to channel his chakra. As he channeled it he began to focus it as he always had; throughout his bones.(3/4) He channeled it with some easy, but it still took some time. This was a new technique he was learning. It would have to be something to get used to. Either way, he lifted up his hands and let his bones rip and fly from his fingers.(4/4 Ten Drilling Finger Bullets) He reached into his pouch and pulled out the scroll once again. This time his eyes flowed throughout the scroll as he looked the other Gennin level technique. It wasn't too hard to spot out.(1/4) He finally came across it. It was a technique known as Dance of the Camellia. His eyes skimmed throughout it.(2/4) The technique intrigued him. It would allow him to create a sword from his bones. This would be pretty simple if he did it right.(3/4) He began to channel chakra into his left arm. As he did his shoulder bone began to grow til it broke through his skin. With his right hand be reached up and took ahold of it as he pulled it out. It wasn't so bad.(4/4 Dance of Camellia) He then proceeded to pick up the scroll on Universal Ninjutsu. With this he opened up to the very basic techniques. In that sense, what were academy level techniques. He went to the first.(1/2) After reading throughout the first technique very swiftly he placed down the scroll. He reached his hands up and formed a seal. He dispersed into a cloud of smoke and reappeared transformed with the Henge technique.(2/2 Henge no Jutsu) He opened up the scroll once again. This time he moved onto the next basic technique. This technique seemed like it would be a helpful one given certain circumstances.(1/2) He read through the scroll as he read the technique. The young teen did this was some great speed. After he read through the technique and developed a basic understanding for it he put the scroll down. With the scroll down he proceeded to perform the Substitution Technique.(2/2 Kawarimi no Jutsu) After learning these four techniques he kept the scrolls and sought out a new location to train in.

Stepping carefully into the library, Tsuki double-checked the interior of the building. It was as it is usually was, somewhat like any old library except for the fact that several people were actively practicing jutsus. Tsuki never understood why people would risk shooting bone bullets and fireballs and the like in an enclosed space full of fragile sources of information. However, it was taken as common practice here in Kumogakure's library at least and the people in charge of it had found a way to accommodate the practice of training such dangerous techniques while keeping their books and scrolls safe.
None of that was Tsuki's business, though, and she didn't say a single word until she reached the librarian's desk. As Alex caught up to her, she asked the prim old man behind the desk, "Excuse me, I was wondering you had any jobs for two ninja? A genin and a chuunin?".
The wizened library stopped checking in a stack of scrolls and proceeded to think over the question, rubbing his scruffy beard with one hand. "Mm," he smacked his lips, "Let's see here. This might be too easy for the likes of a chuunin, but if you're willing to do some nice, honest labor, we do need two younglings like yourself." The old man paused as he shifted his weight into a more comfortable position, leaning forwards so he could rest his elbow on the table and his chin on his hand. Once settled, he continued, "You see, as of late, the ninja that come here to learn have just been running off with all our scrolls with nary a thought of returning them," a scoff at a ninja that just happened to be taking a scroll out of the library at that very moment, "Now, that's all good and well. The library doesn't like encouraging such responsibility, but we all know that ninjas aren't always the brightest or the most responsible or the most caring bunch, so we have plenty of copies to replace the stuff that's being taken, or sometimes destroyed. The only problem is, to make sure those copies aren't burned down and to save space, they're stored up in the attic." To demonstrate, the librarian waved a hand up at the ceiling of the library, and a rather high ceiling it was. Tsuki and Alex could have been standing on top of each other in addition to on top of the tallest bookshelf and they would only be halfway to the ceiling, and it was quite clear that Tsuki was thinking exactly that as she stared blankly up at where the old man motioned. A snicker came from the librarian, "You're new to the ninja business, aren't you," to which Tsuki brought her eyes respectfully back to the elderly man and nodded quietly as he continued, "Yes, as you can see, the ceiling is quite high, too high for normal folks like me to get to it, but we need it that high to keep a stray flood or whatnot from ruining everything up there. We manage the inconvenience by getting young ninjas looking for an odd job like you and your friend there to retrieve the stuff up there for us. How you do it is up to you so long as you don't damage anything else. So you up for it? All you have to do is get the stuff. I'll do the actual sorting with the other librarians."
Now that he was finished, the elderly man gave Tsuki a wrinkled look, waiting for her answer. Tsuki gave the ceiling another look. she figured, She looked back at the man and nodded timidly before looking back at Alex. Tsuki had accepted the job, but that didn't mean Alex needed to as well. If he didn't want to work in a stuffy library, well, Tsuki would apologize for wasting his time and then suggest some other places he could try before they parted ways. [679 words]

Chaos Nymph
Upon coming up to the Jutsu Library of Kumogakure the kunoichi immediately realized something was wrong. Many of the people who were currently working within it and outside it were running about frantically. As they did she could not help herself from growing ever so curious as to what was currently taking place. Of course, she decided to take it upon herself to find out just what exactly was going on. She continued onward as she now entered the building. Looking around she could see that the place was actually in a bit of a mess. A bit...wrong words to describe the chaos that had unfolded. She guessed someone had probably started a rampage or who knows whatever else. She didn't bother to ask. However, she did stop to ask on of the workers if they needed assistance. The obvious reply: a yes. Hikari now found herself amongst the busy bodies in the building. At first she was doing very minute, and less troublesome, jobs such as picking up various scrolls. Once she had accumulated a pile of scrolls big enough she asked another worker what she should do with them. The worker then explained to her the system they ordered the scrolls by. After listening in depth to what the other shinobi had to say she began to distribute the scrolls to their original places. After some time the pile of scrolls gradually became smaller and smaller. Hikari was running about the library. She wanted to get the job done swiftly, as well as correctly, so she could hurry and help Sestuna with the things she needed done. It took her some time to, but after placing several dozens of scrolls back into their respective places she moved onto help Setsuna. She was stopped, once again. This time it was another who worked there. It was a young girl and she asked for Hikari's assistance. Hikari listened to what she had to say and then agreed to the task. She now moved to another section of the Library she had not seen before and she was a bit glad that she hadn't. This time around she came to a section that looked almost completely destroyed. Bookshelf upon bookshelf had been knocked down in a domino-like effect and some were even broken. The fallen one's weren't the problem at all. She began at the first. It was heavier than expected but she still managed to lift it up. After she had she moved it to its correct place she then moved onto the next one of the shelves. She lifted this one up with a bit more ease than last time. She was getting used to this type of work. Physical labor was sort of beginning to pay off in many ways such as this. Yet another minor mission to help around the village of Kumogakure. Eventually, she finished lifting up all of the fallen bookshelves. Now, she had to do something of the same of that which she had to before; she had to, now, place more scrolls into their proper places. She had analyzed all that she had touched. All the scrolls and all the information. Because of this, the young kunoichi began to have a general understanding of all that was withheld in the library. She kept an open mind to all available techniques and just as much as an open eye as she continued to help out and about. As the entirety of the construction and redesigning began to come to an end Hikari dwelved deeper and deeper into the Jutsu collection. Not only was she currently looking for techniques for herself to learn and master she was looking for anything that had to do with dark chakra. She knew there had to be some kind of information on what Sestuna was capable of. As she cleaned she made sure to keep and eye out for it. Finally, as she began to get closer to the back of the of the library she finally finished all her help with those in the library. She was placing the last couple of scroll into their respective places where she came across one which withheld information on something known as the darkness element or, better yet, Yamikonton. She took the scroll and slipped it into her pouch. After doing as much she moved onto the next thing. This was just something as simple as sweeping the rest of the debris into piles. Though simple, the job took more than a moment to accomplish. It, in deed, had taken some time for Hikari to finish up this job as well. After finishing up she finally began to put the cleaning utensils back where they belonged. She spoke to the "bookkeeper" of the library and the person thanked her greatly. This also lead to her being paid for her assistance with all that had taken place. (816 Words = 18.13 Posts 18 Post = 12,000 Ryo)
She walked up to Sestuna and waved her hand. "I've got to stop by the hospital really quick. You can stay and look around if you'd like. I've gathered a few scrolls that'll be helpful for the both of us. If anything, get what you need and meet me in the training grounds". With that she disappeared towards the Hospital. (Exit)
Setsuna was walking alongside Hikari for about ten minutes when they finally reached the library. Upon reaching it, Setsuna could feel Hikari become wary and cautious as it seemed that there was something wrong. She noticed dozens of people working feverishly outside of the library and frantically running in and out the doors. Not wanting to stay back, Setsuna walked behind Hikari in order to ensure that no harm would come to her. Upon stepping inside, Setsuna grimaced as to the condition of the library. "This is the library...it looks like a complete dump," she stated coldly. There were fallen shelves everywhere, ripped pages from books flying, and tables and chairs flipped completely upside down. "This place clearly has been trashed..."
Hikari had asked one of the other workers if they needed help, meanwhile, Setsuna merely sighed. She could see that Hikari was a good soul and would take the time to help anyone in need. Setsuna wasn't that kind. However, she would help Hikari in any endeavor. Ignoring the fact that she was practically volunteered to help, Setsuna began to work along side Hikari in order to get the place back to its former glory.
Setsuna first began with the shelves that had been completely knocked over. There were several of the stronger workers attempting to lift them up. She had always been stronger than the average ninja. Maybe it was due to the mark of chaos that she had on the palm of her hand. She walked over to them and gripped tightly on the shelf as she stood between two older gentlemen. They didn’t make any comments or remarks as to her being a woman, probably because the tanto on her back showed that she was a ninja and she could easily just cut out their throats. Exhuming charka and focusing it at her feet, Setsuna used all of her strength to lift the shelf and have it stand upright. Setsuna’s group did this for 15 more shelves before they were finally finished.
As Hikari was gathering up the scrolls, Setsuna began grabbing the chairs and tables and putting them in the right place. One of the older librarians was directing her as to where exactly the chairs and tables belonged. It quickly turned into a game of “a little to the left…no a little to the right”, which only annoyed Setsuna even more. She was about ready to yell at the librarian as her patience grew then, but then looked over at Hikari. She was still diligently working to help out. Seeing her seemed to calm Setsuna down, so she continued taking the abuse from the older librarian and finished putting the tables in the right places.
Her next task was to work on putting all of the scrolls in the right places. Unfortunately, she had to sit through the librarian’s lecture on where everything goes and how everything is supposed to be place. Not only did she have to listen to where everything goes, but she had to listen to why it goes there. Hikari and Setsuna probably spent a total of 15 minutes just listening to the old crone drone on and on about their system. She led out a rather huge and loud yawn which immediately upset the librarian but she didn’t say anything in response. They were to help them, and their help was appreciated. After the lecture finished, Setsuna began to help Hikari grab the scrolls and began placing them on the shelves that she had just help bring up.
There was one scroll that she found halfway through the job that she found highly valuable. It was a weapon style for Kumogakure’s ninja, called Raiton Taiga. As she read through the contents of the scroll, she realized that this style combined her lightning chakra to her favorite weapon the tanto. It would not be an easy style to learn or master, but it would be a first step in attaining enough strength to become useful to the village. That was the secondary reason for her to become strong.
Continuing to put the scrolls away, Setsuna also found scrolls for genin lightning and genin fire techniques. She took a moment to walk up to the crone and told her that she would like to borrow the said scrolls. The crone allowed her to take them for helping them out during the chaos and thus Setsuna placed them in her pack. Soon…she thought…she would repay a visit to Konoha and seek out her revenge. For now however, the task at hand. Hikari and Setsuna were almost done with the mission. All that was left was to sweep up any remaining lost pages and figure out what books they belong to. Thankfully there were scholars there to help with the last part of the assignment and they were able to get through it relatively quickly.

"Alright...I'll see you there..." Setsuna stated as she watched her friend take off in the direction of the hospital. Setsuna had grabbed the scrolls that she needed and began heading to the training grounds when she realized...she had no idea where the training grounds were.
Smiling he listened to what they had to say, sticking his hands on his hips he looked up at the cieling and tilted his head curiously and kind of odd looking and rubbed his head. Smiling and looking down he nodded at her, "Yes, I will love for this mission!" He said. His heart racing and his forhead sweated, rubbing his palms on his legs he looked over at Tsuki and had a giant smile on his face as he blushed and looked back at the man.

Alex had spoken his agreement, so now all that was left was to receive the final details and then get on with the mission. With a snort, whether it was of approval or for something else Tsuki could not tell, the man handed Tsuki a list, "That's what we need," and then pointed at a cart that was to the side of the reception desk, "Take that cart. It's metal, so you can magnetize it if you're one of those ninjas, but if you can't, it's also got wheels. Fill it with what we need then bring it back to me then you're done. Now, go on, you should find the hatch to the attic somewhere near the medical jutsu section. Least likely place for things to blow up and all that."
Orders received clearly if not loudly, seeing that this was a library and all, Tsuki bowed politely to show that she understood and retrieved the cart, trusting Alex to take the note. After checking that Alex was still with her, Tsuki made her way to the medical section, using the various helpful signs and markings to keep herself from getting lost. Although, before reaching the medical section, she spotted the door to the attic and from that point on just needed to navigate the aisles to steadily get closer to the door. Once underneath the still far-off attic hatch, Tsuki stopped and looked up quietly. She would politely wait for Alex to make the first suggestion once he caught up.

Fully/Partially Visible Tattoos ↬ Tsuki has a set of tattoos that collectively take the design of multiple wings. At each of her shoulder bones, Uzumaki sealing tattoos etched in white, almost silvery ink extend from her shoulder bones onto her arms, wrapping their skinny shape all the way down to the back of Tsuki’s hands. In the same color is a second pair of wing tattoos that start in the middle of her back, one below the left should bone and the other below the right. These tattoos circle around her waist to the front of her body, where the wing shape that that they design take a steep dip to between the legs. The width of the wings narrow on the way down to the legs and continue to narrow as they spiral down the legs much as the first set of wings spiral down the arms. Once the pair of tattoos reach the knees of the legs they are spiraling down, the seals written into the tattoos are shaped into a ring right below the knees.
Training ↬ Fuuinjutsu technique training is halved.

Whisteling to him self he took the paper as he began following Tsuki, his heart pounding and his feet clicking the ground with each step. Eyes glancing around he could see all the scrolls and the dust on some of them as its been ages since they had been touched, seeing the puppet section he smiled and began walking off before he shook his head trying not to get distracted. Quickly keeping pace he continued behind Tsuki as they finally made it under the hatch, looking straight up he blinked and tilted his head. Tilting it the other way he scratched the top of his head curiously and wasn't really sure on what to do but he continued tilting his head back and fourth curiously.
Rubbing his head he bounced on his toes as if he was listening to music that was slowly steadily speeding up. "How about, I get in frog position and you run at me. Proceeding you jump on my back and as soon as your foot touches I push off of the ground and you push off my back, quickly I use my puppet and raise up up so you can proceed to push off of the puppet and get to the hatch....and you can start dropping the stuff down to me and I will put it in the cart..." Alexandra said as he crossed his arms starring at the hatch and pictured the plan in his head with great detail.
Rubbing his chin he tapped his foot impatiently and smiled, "I mean, do you have an idea? I don't know many jutsu besides some basic puppet ones...but you seem well rounded on the topic then I am." He said blushing and smiling as it was a sad attempt to flirt and properly not the best time to flirt.

There had been an idea floating around in Tsuki's head, a plan on how to get up to the hatch without having to wall-walk all the way there. However, she was hesitant on sharing it, uncertain on whether or not it was actually any good, so she ended up simply staring up at the ceiling as she decided whether or not her plan was foolproof. It was during this rather excessive thinking that Alex spoke, and being polite, Tsuki stopped looking up and started looking at the genin as he explained his idea. The first half of it seemed solid, even if it relied heavily on timing everything correctly. However, Tsuki couldn't let the last half of his plan, no matter how polite she was. Now hesitating over how to break her disapproval of the plan to Alex, Tsuki looked back up to the ceiling for help as he added in a few more words after pausing. she confirmed rather regretfully, still listening to Alex even as he thought, She nibbled on her bottom lip as she looked back down, dropping her chin all the way down so that she was facing the ground now. She was too bothered with thinking to really give Alex's compliment any sort of reaction or even much thought.
"Umm... Alex, I don't think that would work," Tsuki started slowly as she looked up fearfully at his face without raising her own, "If we just dropped everything down, even with someone to catch it, there's too much chance for damage." One of Tsuki's hands was held up to her lips as the other tugged at the bottom of her shirt. She really hoped he wouldn't be too disappointed. Even though she had no reason to be scared and knew she had no reason to be scared, Tsuki was scared. That was just how she was. The only reason she hadn't been umming and hmming before was because Alex had been so unsure of himself before and Tsuki was allowed to take her time filling in the leader role that had been left empty with the disappearance of Ren.
Of course, now that Tsuki had expressed dissatisfaction at Alex's idea, of course it would be fair for her to bring up her own plans, as uncertain as she was about them all. "Instead, let's," Tsuki started and then paused for a breath. Alex suggesting a plan of his own, even if it was the catalyst for Tsuki suggesting her own plan, made it that much more difficult for Tsuki to offer her own plan. Once she was ready to go on, she let it all out, even going so far as to go through all the preparations before telling Alex everything.
From a seal tattooed into her arm, Tsuki summoned 20 metal balls with a wave of her hand, each of them poofing into existence on the ground around Tsuki. If Alex knew enough about Kumogakure's signature subelement, he would be able to identify the balls as Metaru Tama, simple spheres composed of metal. A few hand seals later, the metal balls levitated off the ground, now under the influence of Tsuki's magnetic field. To ensure the ceiling was in range of her field, Tsuki jumped onto the top of the bookcase, bringing her balls up with her. She then arranged them above her so that they created a pathway up to the ceiling, one that would need some precision jumping to use, but nothing too difficult for anyone that had graduated from the academy. It turned out that Tsuki had actually summoned about eight balls too many, so those she gently lowered to and left on the ground. The spheres wouldn't be able to hold Alex's weight for more than a moment, but assuming Alex jumped well, a moment was all that was needed. Now, there was only the matter of asking Alex a few questions and explaining to him what everything was about, "Alex, I think it might be better if you went up and then manipulated your puppet to bring the scrolls down to me. I'll take the scrolls from your puppet and arrange it on the cart. You can use the metal balls to make your way to the ceiling and once you reach it... Well, do you know the wall-walking technique?". Once Alex reached the ceiling, he would probably need to wall-walk on it for a little bit to open the door to the attic. [761 words]

This -- however -- can make the user's movements more predictable, and this technique takes 1 post for only 1 chakra point, meaning it takes 40 whole posts to stock up for later battle use.
Fully/Partially Visible Tattoos ↬ Tsuki has a set of tattoos that collectively take the design of multiple wings. At each of her shoulder bones, Uzumaki sealing tattoos etched in white, almost silvery ink extend from her shoulder bones onto her arms, wrapping their skinny shape all the way down to the back of Tsuki’s hands. In the same color is a second pair of wing tattoos that start in the middle of her back, one below the left should bone and the other below the right. These tattoos circle around her waist to the front of her body, where the wing shape that that they design take a steep dip to between the legs. The width of the wings narrow on the way down to the legs and continue to narrow as they spiral down the legs much as the first set of wings spiral down the arms. Once the pair of tattoos reach the knees of the legs they are spiraling down, the seals written into the tattoos are shaped into a ring right below the knees.

Listening to her deny his idea kind of made him upset, and the reasoning was kind of disappointing. Looking down at his fingers he was going to mention the fact that he could control object with puppet strings and he could have brought down the scrolls like that but he was too nervous to even bring up the idea at this point. Looking up and acting like nothing was wrong he nodded at her, he heard her start to talk and he tilted his head when she paused and didn’t say anything. Not breaking his smile he continued to look at her even though he was still kind of hurt that she didn’t want to try his idea but he understood.
Jumping up on the book self-next to her he crossed his arms and tilted his head back and forth wiggling in place as if he had music playing in his ear drums. Rubbing his chin he was kind of impressed, all he could do involved puppets but she was able to this and it didn’t even seem to affect her. Shaking off his impression he heard her ask if he was able to wall walk, “Y-Yeah, I know how to wall walk.” He said as red coated his cheeks and he crossed his arms seen the path the balls let to and started understanding her plan, suddenly she told him to use his puppet to bring down the supplies. He glanced back to see his puppet scroll attached to him and didn’t want to say no to her request so instead he nodded, “yeah…that sounds good…” he said rubbing the back of his head and back up at the hatch.
“Guess I should get going then…” He said as he breathed heavily, his heart racing he eyed his feet and then looked at TSUKI and back at path. Taking off his first foot touched one sphere and he began bouncing like a rabbit, both his feet touching one sphere and pushing himself up to the other one. His hips twisted and bent with each bunny hop across the spheres.. His eyes narrowed as he approached the wall, landing on the last sphere his feet pushed, hair blowing back his body flipped upside down. Doing a hand seal he breathed and focused chakra to his feet, his eyes flew open and his feet touched the ceiling and stuck. Grinning he looked down at Tsuki, “What do you think? 10 points?” He said laughing as he walked on the ceiling. Walking for a few minutes he grabbed the hatchet to the attic, pulling on it the door it slid open and hung down. Climbing inside the attic he pulled out the list and read over it, going around he began putting the stuff into a pile by the door as it took a few minutes to find everything that they needed. Walking back to the door he looked down at Tsuki and smiled again trying to keep a happy face. Using his chakra strings he had two strings per item, he had his pinky and ring finger holding one item, his middle and pointer finger on another item and same with the other hand, his thumbs held one item as well. The chakra strings around his fingers slowly started moving the material down to Tsuki as his puppet scroll stayed attached to his back. With the chakra strings he could get five items down and it would be safer than using a puppet and quicker.

There was still one flaw in Alex's reasons for why his idea would have worked. His plans had Tsuki up top while he stayed on the ground. Puppet users may have amazing control over their puppets, but they couldn't defy gravity with their strings. His strings wouldn't be able to do anything to carefully lower the books. If he pushed off of Tsuki, and he very well could have, then his plan would be going somewhere. Although, it would have been rather awkward to push off of something one was bringing up themselves. However, Alex never mentioned any of his arguments for his plans, so of course Tsuki didn't have the chance to think of these counterarguments, which was good. It let her be polite and pay more attention to what Alex did have to say about her plan, giving the occasional nod whenever it was needed until Alex began ascending using her metal spheres.
As Alex ascended up to the hatch alone while Tsuki remained stationary on top of the bookcase to better control the metal spheres. Tsuki appeared calm and composed as she exerted the proper amount of force on each metal sphere, doing her best to ensure Alex's safety. Something like this wasn't particularly difficult for Tsuki's level of skill but it also wasn't dirt easy. If, say, a bird flew in her face or something, Tsuki probably wouldn't be able to maintain the technique. Lucky for Alex, no such thing happened and he was able to safely reach the ceiling.
Although, Tsuki did have to mentally comment, Personally, she would have just jumped from one to the next with one foot each, just like when she was running through treetops. However, to each her own and she was too polite to point out otherwise. She merely started when Alex suddenly shouted at her from the ceiling. This was supposed to be a library, a quiet place, and it had been until Alex shouted, which make his loud voice all the more surprising. However, just like with the bunny hops, Tsuki made no comment on the sudden shout and simply gave him a quiet and hesitant thumbs up as she focused her mind on other matters, like gently lowering all the balls to the ground so that she could conserve chakra.
Once that was done, all Tsuki had to do until Alex was ready to come down was stack the stuff Alex brought down with his puppet. She waited patiently, dropping to the ground to stare at the titles of the medical scrolls near her as Alex rummaged in the attic. Tsuki had been expecting Alex to use the puppet and she had been expecting the puppet to make enough noise for her to notice it, so she didn't notice the scrolls Alex brought down until they entered the extremes of her field of vision. A shaking white thing brought her attention to the scrolls that were carefully being led to the ground and Tsuki started once more. This time, it was out of guilt for not doing her job properly. Once the scrolls reached her on ground level, Tsuki hastily untied them and heaped them all into her arms so as not to waste Alex's time by making him wait for her. Once Alex was free to get more scrolls, Tsuki took the scrolls she had in her arms and placed them neatly into the metal cart. Tsuki now had time to think about Alex's decision to use just strings instead of the entire puppet, If he hadn't been so far away, Tsuki would have complimented Alex on it. However, she didn't want to shout and disturb someone else's peace, and because it would be rather strange for her to bring something small like that up at the end of the missions, Tsuki probably would never get the chance to praise Alex on his adjustments to her plans.
While Alex rummaged around for the next batch of scrolls to send down, Tsuki leaped up to the top of the bookcase directly underneath the attic's hatch so that this time she would definitely be ready. [702 words]

Walking back up with another batch of the stuff he begin to slowly lower it down towards Tsuki, he blushed as he looked down at her and couldn’t help but to smile. Maybe this is what it felt like to have a crush on a girl, he wasn’t much of ladies men after all so the feeling was either some food poisoning, love, or he somehow swallowed a butterfly while he was sleeping. Pausing to himself he blinked as he thought of the top three choices of the feeling was, He thought to himself feeling sort of stupid for the fact that he even thought of that as one of the options. Shrugging it off he continued lowering the scrolls down to her and waited a few for her to get them.
Pulling out the list he whistled and began singing to himself not really caring if he was heard or not. Rustling through the stuff he hummed and tapped his foot, his head moved back and forth as he did so and proceeded to go and set the stack down and finished getting the rest of the supplies. Breathing he started lowering last batch of scrolls down and smiled feeling he had accomplished something, looking at the list he made sure that he had gotten everything and nodded excitedly. Looking down at the height of would have to go he sighed, slowly he moved his body around to where his feet touched the ceiling and he began wall walking.

Tsuki's fingers would delicately on untying the scrolls. After that, she gently settled them into the cart, arranging them so that they wouldn't roll off easily. Then, it was back to the top of the book shelf for the next batch of scrolls.
This drawn out rhythm continued for quite a while as the scrolls built up on the cart. Finally, the time came for the last batch, and Tsuki placed these carefully atop the cart as well. When she had carefully balanced the last five scrolls on top of the others, Tsuki looked up to see that Alex had closed the hatch to the attic and was on his way down. Before he moved too far away, Tsuki quickly cast a hand sign and levitated her Metaru Tama back up to the ceiling so that Alex could jump down using them rather than having to walk all the way to the nearest wall. She would hold them steady as Alex made his way down, and once he was safely on the ground, Tsuki would collect all the Metaru Tama she had out back to her body and then reseal them in the proper tattoos.
