Sunshineverse

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.

"Well good, because I'm not giving him up and I don't think anyone else is either, okay?" He eyed the girl, noted her relaxation with having her hands confined, then leaned in to sweep her up into his hold so he could stand, ready to release her if it upset her. "Got a name kiddo? I'm Obito. I'm one of the many Uchiha in this village and the Hokage, which means I lead this place."

"Itezora Konayuki. So Hokage is like the mayor?" Other than grabbing onto his jacket in surprise, she seemed perfectly delighted with becoming luggage. "What's an Uchiha? Might I ask?"

"Uchiha are my clan. Uchiha Obito is my full name. We're pretty well known for our shinobi." He settled her comfortably in his arms, taking the opportunity to examine her more carefully for her state of health as he turned to start walking. "I haven't heard of your clan though... and a Hokage is a lot closer to the Daimyo, who is basically the mayor of the whole country. I just run the military stuff."

Being almost overwhelmingly healthy, chakra saturation and all, Konayuki was doing an examination of her own in return. He had a very interesting face, after all.

"My clan? That's because we live on Mount Odori, at the peak. Land-dwellers don't go there- oh! Whoops, I should say 'lived', now..!" She laughed, apparently finding that among the funniest things in the world, and thought over the rest of his explanation.

"Big brother Obito, might I ask what a Daimyo is?"

"Everything in the lands of the country called fire technically belong to the fire Daimyo. That works with all the other countries too." Big brother huh? she was a cheerful one... but the casual way she laughed away the death would warrant watching. Whether she wasn't that attached or simply covering well would be better than her being unphased by it.

He cuddled the child, making his way through the village with her. "So, what's your plan now that you've come to my village?'

"Um..." She hadn't really thought about it. But now that she was, the answer was obvious. "I'll live here and keep uncle safe."

She didn't really understand everything he said, but it was close enough to what she'd overheard from the adults that it all seemed to make sense. Ground-dwellers really were much more complicated.

"Just like that huh?" He nodded a little a smile touching his lips. "So, does that mean you expect to live with him or just int he village?"

She definitely hadn't thought that far ahead. Her plans had extended all the way to escaping the nebulous, panicked don't leave me alone, and that had carried her all the way to the Land of Fire. Now she was here, surrounded by people, her motivations were much less desperate.

"I've no idea!"

The flicker in her eyes at the question went a long way to reassure him that she was reacting to whatever happened to her family in some way, and he relaxed a little, hugging the child. "We'll sort it out. Do you want to go see him now then? He's in the village."

"Yes!" Of course he would be able to sort it out. Adults could do that, and he was one of the most important, if she'd understood correctly. She squeezed back lightly at the hug, then paused. "Ah, I forgot my pack... Let's go get that first, okay?"

She pointed back towards a large hide satchel, and a wrapped, sword-like object tucked away beside one of the roadside trees.

Okay, packs were important and he could have smacked himself for spacing it. "Right. Pack it is!" He turned around, padding over and leaning to get it with his other hand...

And failed miserably.

He released it and straightened, looking at her with a slightly more calculating view. "You can pick that thing up, no problem?"

"Yep," was her distracted answer as she wriggled around to grab the top of the satchel... and promptly pulled herself right out of his arms when neither the bag or Obito went anywhere as she tugged. "--Whoops!"

He caught her before she could land on her face, setting her on her feet. "Okay, that thing is pretty heavy. You can lift stuff like that with no trouble huh?" He waited for her to adjust the bag and offered her his hand.

"Huh? This isn't heavy at all." She looked up at him, faintly questioning but still polite as she shouldered the bag and rearranged the blade on her back. "I didn't have that much to bring, really-- ah, maybe it's heavy for ground-dwellers? You're weaker than us, right?"

"Not exactly a complimentary way of saying it but I can only think of two, maybe three people who could pick that up other than you." He shook his head, taking her hand once she seemed done arranging her things. "So you're really strong huh? Any other features about you I should know about? I don't want you accidentally breaking walls or people."

She's ten and what is diplomacy. She took his hand eagerly, though, and perhaps her light grip would be reassuring.

"Ah? No, no. I'm not strong," she replied, suddenly flustered. "I was the weakest in my clan. Even the other kids were stronger than me, not to mention the adults... What do you mean by features, uncle?"

"Kiddo, you're stronger than almost every trained fighter in my village if you judge just by ability to lift things. So, what else is normal to your clan that might not be out here with us folk?" He gave her a smile. Though he needed the information, he had no need to be mean or anything like that.

"Um... We're used to the snow," she managed, after thinking about it. What were ground-dwellers like? She could count the number she'd met on one hand. But uncle had been dressed really warmly, even though it was almost spring. "No one ever gets cold, even though there's always a blizzard on the mountain... and if we get sick, it's something really bad... I'm sorry, but I'm just a kid, and no one told me secrets or anything special about the clan."

"No, it's alright. I just need to know because I don't want you to get in trouble or get hurt by not knowing things are different here than where you're from." He steered them to a stand, deciding to get quick snacks for them both and sent a note off to Kakashi while he was at the counter.

Once they got their treats, he offered the girl one of the dango sticks.

Test Drive!
