He seems really hung up on Konoha.

"I could show you my digital encyclopedia archive if you want. Should have a bunch of modern, though nonmagical, medical articles. I have a few first aid books as well."

Permalink

Oooooh.

"That would be greatly appreciated, your world's technology sounds fascinating."

Permalink

"The device that holds everything is probably unreplicable. It's tinker-tech, meaning someone with technology-related powers created it. It cost me a lot of money. Which I stole, but still."

Permalink

"Pity. The information itself is copiable, though, I presume?"

Permalink

"Sure, though it's written mostly in English."

Permalink

"I would also like to learn your language at some point, too."

Permalink

"Better hope Dan gets better then. I'll leave you with my computer and you can go forth and learn."

Permalink

"Oooooh, yes, thank you."

Permalink

"I should probably follow that up with asking for random things I don't need as a trade. But... I'm not unhappy with what I have now. And you've mentioned that I'll get to explore later."

Permalink

"Of course. And I'll make sure you're provided with more texts from our world."

Permalink

"Books, food and company that won't go irreversibly insane when they hang out with me. All a girl could ask for."

Permalink

"Very reasonable priorities."

Permalink

"What are your priorities? What am I enabling here?"

Permalink

"My main goal is to learn everything possible to learn. And to avoid becoming bored, I suppose, since immortality is needed for that."

Permalink

"Boredom is what I'm trying to avoid, yeah."

Permalink

"It's very insidious."

They seem to reach their destination, Dan relaxing with a sigh as Orochimaru opens a door, letting him into a plain stone room where Tetsuri sits, apparently meditating.

Akhlys keeps quiet and takes a better look around. Any interesting shinobi paraphernalia?

Permalink

There's three scrolls with Japanese four-character sayings, fairly straightforward things, on three of the walls, and a plaque on the fourth, which Tetsuri had been facing. The writing is old, and Akhlys can't read it. The place smells strongly of incense, and seems fairly plain overall. If there's Cool Things here, they're well hidden.

(Tetsuri starts leading Dan to sit in the middle.)

She shifts nervously. This would make her life so much easier, it's exciting and terrifying all at once. The whispers in her head all start talking in unison.

"Hush, not now," she tells them.

Permalink

"...Who are you talking to?"

Permalink

"Not really a who. It's okay, they don't exist in this dimension. Or at all. Probably."

Permalink

"Ah. Your voices? Are they saying anything interesting?"

Permalink

"They mostly want me to kill everyone and consume your souls. I don't know how I'd do that. That seems difficult, especially since you're all pretty powerful. Tetsuri is like, really old. Older than anyone we've met. Human-shaped, anyway. They keep telling mentioning the moon? Then lots of talk about white snakes and the dead, putting them back. Which is weird because you want to be immortal. Dan they like and want to keep. He is one of many, right in the middle and his father is the law and his mother doesn't exist. He's tasty, always is."

Tetsuri is a dangerous, wolf-like sort of still.

Dan looks like he probably thinks he hallucinated that?
