[It was official. He'd been stood up.

Isamu had waited in the barracks all morning - done his warm-up routine like usual and then some. It wasn't like Raphael to be late, much less miss a session entirely. The last one had been particularly rough, and he thought there might be something bothering the turtle. Maybe it was the same thing keeping him away now. He almost hoped so, because a couple of the other options left him without a sensei.

There was, of course, only one way to handle this dilemma, and that was by asking around. Loudly and (mostly) publicly over the journals.]


[filtered from Chiaki - mostly unhackable]

Hey, anyone seen Raphael? Giant, grouchy turtle in a red bandanna?

PAGING RAPHAEL. COME IN, SENSEI.

[The teen himself can be found wandering around town - the barracks, the housing districts, any place he thinks he might be able to catch him. The woods is his next option, but he's not looking forward to that.]

I haven't seen Raph in over a week.

I saw him on Friday. Hadn't really checked up on him until today, though.

Oh. Well if you get a hold of him, can you tell me how he's doing?

You his girlfriend?

No, just a friend.

[He'd been kidding, really. Cause, you know, giant turtle.]

Sure, I guess I'll let you know. Though a name might help.

It's Winry. And yours?

Right, if I happen to see or hear anything from him I'll contact you. You know, to return the favor.

Awesome. I'm sure that'll help.
justicereigns: (Urk)

[personal profile] justicereigns 2010-05-11 10:22 pm (UTC)(link)
I saw him a couple of days ago... why?

He... didn't he make it home?

[identity profile] causeblocked.livejournal.com 2010-05-11 10:23 pm (UTC)(link)
I wouldn't know. I don't live with him.
justicereigns: (sidelong thinking)

[personal profile] justicereigns 2010-05-11 10:54 pm (UTC)(link)
Did you check there? Or with his brothers?

[identity profile] causeblocked.livejournal.com 2010-05-11 11:20 pm (UTC)(link)
I don't know where he lives. He never told me.

And I figured his brothers might respond to this is they knew anything.
justicereigns: (Smoker - Justice)

[personal profile] justicereigns 2010-05-11 11:59 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh all right. You had me worried.

[identity profile] causeblocked.livejournal.com 2010-05-12 12:04 am (UTC)(link)
Oh? You a friend of his?
i_speak_softly: (Reading a book.)

[Apparently Don is now the family answering service.]

You know, the journals are really not the best way to contact him.
justicereigns: (sidelong thinking)

[personal profile] justicereigns 2010-05-12 01:00 am (UTC)(link)
Not exactly.

[Voice]

[identity profile] causeblocked.livejournal.com 2010-05-12 01:01 am (UTC)(link)
And what else am I supposed to do if I can't find him? He's a damn ninja, right?

Besides, it leads to people who might be able to contact him for me. Like you.
i_speak_softly: (Stealthy ninja is stealthy.)

[Voice]

[personal profile] i_speak_softly 2010-05-12 01:14 am (UTC)(link)
Ninjas aren't hard to find. You just have to know how to look.

Anyway, he's not home. What do you need him for?

[Voice]

[identity profile] causeblocked.livejournal.com 2010-05-12 01:19 am (UTC)(link)
I'll keep that in mind.

He didn't show up at the dojo this morning.

[identity profile] causeblocked.livejournal.com 2010-05-12 01:20 am (UTC)(link)
But you're worried about him.
i_speak_softly: (Hands on hips at you.)

[Voice]

[personal profile] i_speak_softly 2010-05-12 01:34 am (UTC)(link)
[... Oh. That is unusual.]

He didn't, did he.

What's your name? I want to be able to lecture him properly.

[Voice]

[identity profile] causeblocked.livejournal.com 2010-05-12 01:42 am (UTC)(link)
Isamu. I'm kind of his student.

And if I'm not supposed to be late, then he doesn't get to ditch me without notice.
