42 - [video] Minato drops in for an unexpected visit
[the video turns on suddenly, and while Zuko meant to turn it on, he is rather surprised by the sudden ZZZZAP that his communicator decides to give him as punishment for his long neglect of the device. He yelps, dropping the comm back onto the table in front of the couch and glaring balefully at it for a moment, rubbing his hand. You'd think he'd be used to zaps and burns, but hey, it's been a while and that was just unwarranted]
Argh, stupid... Ow. Anyway--
[aaand Zuko is cut off yet again as Minato gets the drop on him and appears just above him, eyes wide. But he doesn't have time to do much else as gravity takes over, and he falls onto the back of hte couch. Torso on one side, legs on the other. The couch almost tips over with the force of the fall. Minato just groans quietly in response. This isn't the first time he's fallen into something, and the surprise is starting to wear off...]
Wha--?!
[Zuko jumps visibly in surprise as suddenly, Minato is falling out of nowhere practically on top of him and gives a shout when the couch tips a bit, jumping off it before it falls, though it never quite gets there. He turns to stare at Minato.]
What the heck was that?!

... That was my teleportation technique not working like it should. I've been visiting my kunai....
commentlog
Kunai...?
[oh. Pulling out said kunai, tucked into his belt]
This?
commentlog
... Normally I don't tell people this, but, yeah. I can teleport to anyplace that has those symbols on it. So that's why I said only use that one in an "emergency", because I can sense when it's used and teleport to it.
commentlog
Uh... good to know.
[still looks rather baffled but, uh, it seems safe enough to sit back down so... going to the couch again. Don't fall on me 8| ]
commentlog ... used the wrong icon, argh.
This isn't my first bad landing, either. I'm hoping the loop doesn't last for too long.
commentlog
Yeah... that's gotta be pretty inconvenient.
[a pause, and he sort of looks at Minato awkwardly]
Um... are you okay? You can sit down if you want.
Re: commentlog
... Actually, my feet are currently rooted to your floor. So I'm going to just stand here for a bit.
commentlog
[...]
Exactly why are you stuck to the floor?
Re: commentlog
Because I can use my chakra to walk on walls and ceilings or enhance my grip on things. ... and currently, I have an enhanced grip on your floor.
commentlog
Okay then. You can just... stand there.
[...]
Uh. You need anything?
Re: commentlog
... Although some water would be good?
commentlog
[he gets up to get a glass of water and goes over to hand it to Minato]
How long do you usually stay, uh, stuck to stuff?
Re: commentlog
[Minato shrugs, taking the glass and drinking from it.]
The timing is random, really. I never know.
commentlog
Oh. Well, feel free to stay however long then, I guess...
commentlog
[He's gently teasing.]
commentlog
Yeah. At least you're not freezing, right?
Re: commentlog
[Minato returns that smile, his own brightening.]
commentlog
commentlog
[Minato blinks, glancing down at the glass he's holding.]
Damn, hand's stuck.
