Okay everyone, it's time to test some people out! The rules of the game are simple. You have a character you would like to try out as a native to the setting of this game. You want to see if this is the right setting to play said character in, right?

Well, then all you have to do is drop them into this post as a top level comment with this as the header:
Character name | Series (OC's just put Original here) | Planned Village Affiliation

Then you comment around and play with everyone else!

If you need some ideas on how to get started, you can drop your character in during the middle of a mission, have them at an eatery around their village, or maybe even just doing weapons practice. It's up to you how you want to set out, so feel free to put your characters in this version of the Naruto universe however it most seems appropriate. Just be sure to say where you put them somewhere in your post though, otherwise two people might not even be threading in the same country.

One last thing! Remember that your character was born in this universe, so whatever else you decide, your character is a world native, even if they might be a tourist in the village you decided to test them out on.

And that's it. Just be good to each other and have fun! Threads you do here can count toward future activity checks, so long as the person you're threading with gets in too. These threads can also be used for samples on your application.

Kisame grins at the assessment, slightly curious at how she goes pink, but well, maybe she'd meant to say it differently.

He's very pleased, and shoots her a grin when she keeps pace beside him, and then settles into the run. The silence and the company are excellent. He feels almost content, but the road will end soon enough.

Kisame resolves to enjoy it while it lasts and lets himself relax as much as he dares.

The pace eats up the road, though, and they leave many other travelers far behind very fast. Kisame isn't close to tired, but he's aware that others can have trouble keeping up, so he looks over at Rui for the first time in a while to check on her status.

The assumption wouldn't be entirely off base. She definitely hadn't meant for it to sound quite like that; she's grateful though that it appeared to have gone over his head.

She'd expected little else once she matched pace. While the little spurt of conversation is pleasant, the quiet is equally welcome. It's comfortable with Kisame that silences with others isn't. That underlying layer of tension obviously missing as they speed along toward their destination. It's probably ironic that she can find it easy to relax with a shinobi such as he.

Still Rui smiles when he checks on her. She might have less stamina, but she was fine. Starting to feel those first signs of protest from her body at taking such a pace but she'd be fine a bit longer before she would inevitably need to slow down. She'd apparently misjudged just the slightest bit his exact pace. Still it's clear she means to tell him she's fine. Nothing to worry about yet.

He can tell she's tiring, but he's pleased to see her pushing her limits. It means that someday, probably soon, she'll be even stronger, and that sends shivers of anticipation down his spine.

He'll trust her to know when she's pushed too far and so continues the pace. The seal isn't far now, anyway.

It's only the spar that has him anxious to be home, but the good feeling makes him feel a little less like everything that can go wrong, will. Maybe there will even be good news waiting. About what, he can't begin to guess, but just maybe...

It might not be as soon as Kisame thinks, but at some point it'll show. Not that Rui doesn't already think -hope, she's grown stronger since their last spar. Nothing would be worse to her than to show she hadn't.

She was tiring, it was expected, still she pushed to keep up even when she hit that point where it was probably better to slow down and catch her breath then keep going. But as much as she would like to remain his running companion Rui does eventually slow. Careful not to fall into a dead stop after maintaining such a pace for so long.

She doesn't expect him to slow with her, he had pressing things to do if they were to get that spar and maybe a decent mission. So she only offers a quick silent wave as she falls back, the stitch in her side well worth the jabs of pain as she breathed. The slower pace would at least allow her the chance to recompose herself before entering the village.

Rui was just sad that slowing down would mean losing his companionship.

Kisame isn't surprised when Rui starts slowing down. It's a little disappointing, but he thinks she stayed with him longer than she would have when they first met. It means she's getting stronger and it is heartening.

So when she waves, he turns around and gives her an approving nod. "I look forward to our spar, Rui-san."

Then he continues on, smiling and quickening his pace, because now he wants to push himself and be at his best when they spar. It will be exciting, that's for certain.
