Who: Ling, anyone
When: Day 21, late morning
Where: EVERYWHERE
What: good deeds!?

[It is a fine morning (probably, anyway), and today Ling is wandering about and asking a most serious question to pretty much anyone he meets along the way]

Hello, how are you? Need help with something? Anything at all...?

((ooc: feel free to use for mingling too if you want))

His roommate?

I haven't met her, but he told me she's using her life force as fuel for her magic, since what she normally uses isn't available here.

... ah. That would be trouble.

[nodding]

And since he does need someone to go with him...

Ah, anyway, that's about it. If you do go out with Ikki and the others before I can come along, I hope you'll at least give me a good report when you're back.

We'll see how we fare.

Am I supposed to send you off and say "good luck"?

You can, but I don't really believe in that kind of thing.

Really...?

What happens, happens. Even if you wish us luck, if something were to happen, it might have meant to happen. There's no telling, so there's not real point to the gesture, is there?

--then again, I do know people need the comfort from that sort of thing...

Well, you're right in that.

So like I said... if you want.

I wasn't really serious. And with that many people, I don't think there's any chance it'd go so bad I'd have to worry about wishing you good luck.

Never assume.

That's how mistakes are made.

Ah... that's true.

[well. I'm done with mild scolding now.

... hopefully]

[maybe]

So is there anything I can do for you, by the way?

--me?

[... was not expecting]

[laughing here]

What's that surprised look for? You're also one of the people living here.

That's why I'm surprised. Isn't what you're getting from these tasks already benefiting for me?

... and you're offering to do something else for me?

[does not compute?]

I can't consider "doing things for the place I live in" a selfless act, not when I'm getting something out of it as well. So it doesn't really count.

Though even taking that aside, we're roommates, aren't we? I'd help you either way.

... you're thoughtful and clever for making the offer, but most of what I need's getting taken care of. I've even gotten some spare clothes from Zhen Ji from bones of an animal...

I should get something else to wear as well...

Ah, well. If you do need anything later, let me know.

... sure.

[nnnope. can take care of self.]

[gdit Kakashi let me make good deeds]

Were you on your way to finish some of those tasks?

Aah... more or less.
