[treasurehunts]

[The feed clicks on to a pirate sitting cross-legged with a child on his lap. Surely neither of those two looks familiar. Nope. Not at all.

But the lunateclock is quiet, hands in his lap and peering up at the treasurehunted instead of paying any attention to the camera at the moment.

Motochika, on the other hand, is... actually not that attentive as he looks to the camera with a slight frown. Tilting his head, he almost yawns--]

Alright, I'm gonna say my piece once and once alone. Somebody went and thought it'd be a bright idea to abduct the Little Demon of Shikoku. I'll go ahead and applaud ya for gettin' this far, but there's hell t'pay for it! Bring me back home before I get real angry! Tch. I'm pretty pissed as is.

How 'bout you, Minato? 'cept yer not allowed to use the word I just used. [and he spares the time to glance down at Minato

The child's insta-reaction is to nod! But then he pauses mid nod and thinks about it for a moment. Angry...? No, he's not really angry. So have a quiet shake of his head instead. :O]

You're not helping me at all, kiddo. [sigh. he's cracking his neck once before wrapping an arm around Minato to keep a hold on him before changing the angle of the SFC.]  By the way, I found 'im by the mutated coral- ... which you should probably get looked at before it turns into a problem, y'know.

Anyway. Let me know if he's yours? I mean, I won't give him up to anyone - what kind of ass treats a child so lightly like that? But if ya can help me find his guardians, I'd appreciate it. 'til then, he's in the custody of Chosokabe Motochika and I'll keep 'im safe 'til his folks claim him. [Resting his chin on top of Minato's head-] Is that cool with you, Minato?

[Oh. There's a chin on his head. guess that means he has to talk. It's quiet, but hey, the kid has a voice!]

...Kay.

Hah! [His arm retracts as he ruffles Minato's hair with a big grin. Then he nods at the SFC.] There! Ya heard it yerself. I've got dibs until one of ya proves yerself to me, alright? Or you can just hand over the map to the exit and we'll be on our way and I'll find his home myself. Up to you!

[ooc: Motochika & Minato have both been aged down to 17 and 6, respectively! teeniki & hideallnoise might be used to do some tagging, too. You'll get separate threads with them but Motochika might choose to intervene to be over-protective. (Also chances of Motochika letting go of Minato are slim. Like. So slim they're non-existent. Be careful, he's not against biting.)]

[Mitsuru reaches out to the camera almost instinctively.]

Minato! What happened to you?

[She's now glaring at the camera.]

You! One eyed man, what have you done to him?!

VID FOREVER.

[Have another kid! this one older than Minato, but still a kid! (he's 12!)] You're a real demon? And what's Shikoku? Is that a region like Kanto and Johto?

[goldenflint]

Oh. My.

[Another day, another curse week. Seems to look like this one has something to do with age. She definitely recognizes the little boy but the other figure... Didn't she read about him in History class once? 8|a]

[....

Oh god.]

Um... Aniki? That's you, right... Minato?

[... The thing is talking.

alsklaslasd THE THING IS TALKING.

Hi guys, have a 7-year-old staring at the screen (kindly ignore the specks of dried blood on his face and far more than specks on his clothing—), eyes wide because alskajlsdas what is this.]

[ Wow this reminds him of how ridiculous Okita used to be around kids.

And that name. Another one. ]

... You're adopting him. Until someone beats you in battle. [ so deadpan -- wait that kid looks familiar. . . no way. ]

*My goodness, just look at your tiny selves ... So cute! Oh but er, this isn't the time for that, is it.*

Oh no ... Not you guys too. Senpai would not be pleased.

*She thinks for a minute*

Um, Motochika-san? My name is Fuuka Yamagishi. About being kidnapped - you got the wrong idea.

[summum-ius.livejournal.com]

[Ken just. Stares for a minute. What is this. What is this, seriously.]

Just bring him by the dorms, Motochika-chan. [YES HE IS OLDER THAN PEOPLE you have no idea how much he's wanted to call him that.] His things are here, and you can stay here too if you need.

[Action] because it's 1:43

[hideallnoise.livejournal.com]

[He's just kind of amazed by all of these calls give him a second.

And then--]

It's a lot of people.

[You know what Aniki needs? More twerps!]

Hey mister, are you... a pirate?

[dystopiadreams.livejournal.com]

*Little iccle 7 year old Selphie is gazing with big wide eyes into the screen, before tapping on it hard*

HULLO?? HULLO! CAN YOU HEAR ME?!

[tsundyne]

...

[She'd been wondering where Minato went. Especially when he disappeared from the dorms right as she'd started to see the little children. At least this means he's awake now.]

His folks aren't exactly...around anymore.

[She frowns. The background of the video suggests she's out looking for him, but she stops after noticing the feed.]

Aniki, is...that you?

[There's a young, 7 year old girl on the screen. THIS THING IS TALKING.]
