Sight Seeing [Travel // Private]]

[KARKAT]

I watched as I was placed down into the grass and as he had rid himself of the water, though just as I was about to get up, he picked me up and took me to the nearest forested area, leaving me there. I stood, wondering what on earth he was doing, but his next statement made it clear. No matter how strange it was, he was right, I couldn't stay in wet clothes forever. Of course, I could just blame him for the whole thing in the first place, with him pulling me into the water an all.. With a soft sigh I nodded to myself.

"Alright"

My voice was soft as I quickly removed what clothing I had, tossing it to his direction to be dried. Hopefully it wouldn't take long, I did feel quite awkward standing behind trees...with no clothes. Oh, what a day.

[Aiji]

As she stripped down I'd laugh as I'd hear each piece hit the ground. Turning around for but a second in order to pick up all the clothes I would begin to walk a tad bit further away. I would then proceed to spread out every article of clothing. My eyes couldn't stop themselves from looking at every piece there. I would simply smile at her choice of clothes as the air around myself began to increase. I would be far from my max once I stopped heating up.

After a few seconds of thinking of what to talk about I figured it would be best if I didn't say anything seeing as she probably already felt weird considering she was naked behind trees and I could see everything that she had been wearing. No need to make the situation more awkward...

After my job has finished I would pick up every piece and begin to walk to the trees. I would take heavy foot steps so she could hear me coming. It was obvious that I was coming to give her her clothes. I could only hope that she knew to cover herself up. Once I reached the trees I would begin to near the area that she was at. From there I would hand her piece after piece of clothing. I wasn't trying to see anything-- no need to get in trouble.

"Here you go-"

[KARKAT]

Standing there waiting was the strangest thing in my life. Naked...behind trees. Wow, This was something I was definitely going to keep to myself. A wave of relief came over me as I heard him approaching, this could only mean my clothes were done. I kept myself hidden away behind a tree, only to reach out and take my clothes as he handed them to me. I wasted no time putting them on.

"Thank you"

I responded, stepping out from behind the trees, fully clothed. It felt better to be in dry clothes, I wasn't cold at all, thank god. I just had to remember to stay away from rivers next time.

[Aiji]

This would be quite the story to tell to people. I could only imagine what she felt about it haha I would simply wait for her to finish changing and once she had I would face the trees once again. A smile would appear on my face as I looked at her. I still hadn't known what to say. Words just hadn't wanted to leave my mouth since a country or two ago. It was getting dark, though. They had gone across three countries now. It was time for bed. At least for me--

"Do you have an issue with staying here for the night. We've been traveling for sometime now. We've gone through a dew countries rather quickly."

I'd allow her to make the final decision. Perhaps she wouldn't mind staying here. Would she need a fire and a tent? or would the outside work? Whichever she chose I would help out--

[KARKAT]

Seeing the smile on his face only brought one to mine. I didn't know what to say, but thank goodness he said something. He was right, we had covered a great distance in such a short amount of time, and just the simple fact that when I could feel the heat radiating from his body, I was close to falling asleep.

"Staying for the night sounds like a good idea"

I spoke softly, and just as I finished my sentence, I would cover my mouth and let out a soft yawn. My eyes were feeling heavier than usual. I didn't really say anything, just kinda sat down where I was, leaning against whatever tree was close. I was too tired for anything else really.

[Aiji]

She didn't seem to have much energy to do anything really. I'd watch as she placed herself at the base of a tree, sat down, and then began to start falling asleep. She hadn't asked for anything special so I could just assume that she didn't need anything. I would lay myself near her location and would raise my body temperature. A nice warmth would radiate from my body and onto hers. This was the least I could do in a short amount of time. Hopefully she was okay with it.

[loyal]

Upon traversing 'cross these luscious plains, two figures would be huddled amongst a tree, with one of them being a female that seemed to be in the middle of a refreshing nap. The male that watched over here was no other than my student, something that caused me to grow increasingly uneasy with the events that I had to explain to him. Quickly severing the distance with fast-paced strides, I would immediately begin to speak, while hands would deftly hand forward a rather massive gift.

....Listen. I can't explain but take this. I'm going to retire...but...stay safe will ya?

Not waiting for an answer from him, fire would immediately burst from the soles of my feet as I'd propel myself upward and with break-neck speeds, I would depart.

[Give all Items and Ryo to Aiji - EXIT]

[zuka]

Done faggles

[Aiji]

I had been half asleep when I heard a strange noise. I would quickly jolt up and to my surprise I would see my midget sensei. He would give me a large sum of Ryo in addition to all his items plus some. It seemed that he had killed my brethren... He then claimed that he was retiring. All of this came quickly and I didn't know what to say in response. Before I knew it he had blasted off. Damn it...

I would take inventor of the items he gave me and quickly I would place them all in a location on my figure. Now I wielded everything imaginable. This would be interesting. Hopefully it didn't disturb her or wake her from her slumber. The more she slept the better. I would then take a look at the map that he had given me. Two locations marked-- I would place them on my own map and transfer the Suna location she had given me after all-- to the other map as well.

I would then find three head bands all which matched the locations I owned. What a surprise. This was a lot to handle. I couldn't fall asleep right now...

[KARKAT]

I had been known to be a rather light sleeper, so it was no surprise that I kept hearing various noises, one that caught my ear was the sound of another voice; but I couldn't manage to open my eyes to see what was going on, maybe I was dreaming? Yeah, that's what I'd go with, even with the bursting sound, I still thought I was dreaming. I moved a little, yawning as I did so; trying to force my eyes open, but still..they wouldn't listen to me. It took but a few moments til my eyes decided to listen, I opened them slowly, my body remaining still. I saw him fiddling around with a few things..and decided to ask.

"What're you doing..?" My voice was faint, but I knew he could hear me.

[Aiji]

In what seemed like the dead of night whilst I rustled through my sensei's belongings, now my own, I would hear a faint voice. It seemed that she had awoken somewhat and was wondering what I was doing.

"... Just organizing a few things given to me by a friend... Everything is fine. Just continue to sleep."

With that I would simply finish up what I was doing and would lay back down upon the grass. I would simply stare up into the night sky.

Short post-- Not in a good mood :/

[KARKAT]

His voice was faint to me, probably because before he could even really say anything, I was already falling back into sleep. Nothing really bothered me that night while I slept, perhaps because I felt a bit safe around Aiji. Well, that all changed a few hours later. Sitting up as quick as one would open their eyes, I sat there looking around. I had a nightmare, something I wasn't really used to.

"Alright...enough sleep for me.." I whispered softly, hoping not to wake Aiji.

[Aiji]

I had receive little sleep this night and by the time she had awaken, I was already up. I was simply laying their, though, staring at the sky. So much had happened in so little time. I could only wonder what other surprises were in store for myself. The noise of her quickly getting up would cause me to turn my head and face her.

I'd take this as a sign of she was done sleeping. We had to get moving then. We would have to find something to eat on the way. There wasn't exactly anything to eat at this location. Standing up I would begin to collect my belongings and place them on myself. With one final glance to her I would begin to talk.

"Let's get going. We'll have to find something to eat on the way. There isn't anything around here, at least from what I can see, that we can eat.

You have two choices... We either find a dinner to eat in or we will have to find an animal to kill and cook. Regardless of what you choose, there is nothing here that can supply either."

I was sure my mood would progress to a better one as the day would pass but for now I would be somewhat unhappy; more so emotionless.

[KARKAT]

I jumped a little bit, seeing him suddenly face me. Wow, he's got good senses. I watched as he stood and was sure to listen to all he was saying. I had completely forgotten about eating since I had left, and once it was brought up, then I realized how hungry I was. I gave him a little nod at ..well the idea of going to go find dinner. Killing animals wasn't really my thing.

"Um..where will we go next?" I asked softly, finding it hard to remember the path he had showed me with the map. I could sense his unhappiness, and it was starting to make me a little bit nervous, but I could deal with that.

[Aiji]

As she would ask them where they were going, I would pull out my map. It had filled up with markings rather quickly... Taking a look I would follow the imaginary trail that I had set for us. The following place was bear and then Earth after that. Surely we would be able to find something the easiest in Earth, my home land. With out route in mind I would speak with her yet again.

"We will be heading to the Land of Earth in order to eat. That means we will be passing through the Land of Bear. We just have one more minor country to travel through until we get to food. It shouldn't be too difficult to make it that far. Sound good to you? You ready?"

I would give her a slight smile as I awaited her response. I could only hope that she was ready because I was starving!

[KARKAT]

With curious eyes, I watched as he pulled the map out to find where we would be headed. Our location was Land of Earth. Of course, I had never been there before, it should be something new, right? The smile on his face brought one to my own. With a nod, I'd then speak; "Hm, yeah, that sounds good" I was fairly sure I could wait a bit longer. "So..To bear then" I began to walk, again, hoping it was the right way, though I didn't care. We would get there some how, wrong way or right. I just went whatever direction my 'instincts' were telling me to go.

Move to bear? o.o

We would continue straight through this country. I would pull out my map for but a second to simply place a check mark in this country's area. I had visited quite the bit of places now. I was yet to finish. There was still many places to go left. We were going to my home land. Earth Country, next. It was time to get some food in our system. I would place away my map after marking it and I would face the female once and smile before continuing on. It was time to pick up the speed a bit. I was quite hungry.

[KARKAT]

I slowed down my walking, only because I was pretty sure I didn't know where I was at that point, my eyes were just wandering...distracting me pretty much. Thankfully he pulled his map out, I tried to get a little glimpse of it but he had put it away so quickly, so instead I looked at him and smiled.

"Hm..so Land of Earth should be next?"

I asked curiously.

Short post...is fail short. x.x;; i haz no muse!!! HELP ME! Dx

[Aiji]

As we continued on in the direction of the Land of Earth she would begin to slow down almost to the point that I would just stop moving because we just weren't making proceed this way. I'd turn to her and see her smiling at me and then she would part her lips to speak her piece.

"Yes we are. We are currently in the Land of Bear. Just hold on a bit longer and we'll get something to eat. Sound good?"

After speaking my own words I would smile at her and begin walking once again. Hopefully she didn't have any problems with this. If she did I would stop walking but if not then we were on our way to Earth!
