Characters: OU!Uchiha Sasuke [theloneheir], OPEN
When: Friday, July 23
Where: Nesreca Abandoned Library
Rating: PG
Summary: Sasuke's at the library. What do you do when you see him?

After a rather eventful week, for Nesreca anyway, Sasuke was glad to have a little time to himself. Granted, he still had a shadow clone watching Itachi. He always did, when he felt the need to go out. It gave him something new to do, if only for an hour or so.

Sasuke stared at pile after pile of books and then shifted his gaze toward the remainder of the haphazard mess in the corner. Letting out a breathe, he made his way over and knelt down, starting to pick the books up one by one, starting a new pile. Once fifteen books were stacked up, he started another, and repeated the process until all of the books were picked up.

Getting back to his feet, he wiped off the dust on the back of his jeans as he surveyed all of the piles. He could make another shadow clone to help him go through these books faster, to see which ones had decayed beyond salvation and which ones that could still be used. But he wouldn't. If anything happened, especially with Madara around now, he didn't want to risk anything happening when he only had access to a third of his chakra. Half was better.

Well, if he was going to do this himself, he had better get started. He sat down where he stood and grabbed the closest book, flipping through the pages as the tomoe of his Sharingan spun. His eyes would definitely help.

Whoops, that book was no good. That'll get tossed behind him and over his shoulder. He can burn that pile.

Sasuke grabbed another book to look through and set it in his lap before glancing behind his shoulder at Jun. Oh, he knew him. The one that refused to give him back his dogtag at first. Yay.

Without a word, Sasuke turned to the book and started to slip through it. After a minute, he finally spoke, "Then move the book to the corner and get out of the way."

The boy simply shrugged and walked over to one of the piles, plopping down on it.

"What are you doing?"

[hebi]

"Sorting." This book was good. Sasuke set it on his other side before picking up a third and going through it quickly. As he did, he noticed that there was a big chunk of it missing, let out a sigh, and tossed it over to where the first book had gone.

"Why?"

He picked up a book himself... And quickly dropped it as some bug with far too many legs crawled out of it.

"Shit!"

you're using the old journal XD

[hebi]

"The books I'm throwing are useless. I'll be burning them." At the squeal, Sasuke glanced back over his shoulder again and couldn't help but roll his eyes. Really? This kid was afraid of bugs?

... I just noticed. >.>;; It has more icons. Want me to change?

[un-install-er.livejournal.com]

Yes, he was, and right now he was busy trying to stomp the thing into oblivion.

Nah it's okay xD

[hebi]

He was surrounded by idiots. Sasuke went back to paying him no mind, continuing his job of going through all of the books.

Jun may or may not be getting another book thrown at him.

Totally using the other for journal posts. =0 This is just a great commenting/tagging journal. 8D

He managed to squish the bug eventually, with the result of his shoes getting slippery.

So the next thing that happened was that a scrawny twelve-year-old crashed into one of the book piles. Oops.

... So not my day today...

As long as people know X3

[hebi]

Sasuke let out a breath, slammed the book he was flipped through closed and, for the third time, glanced back at Jun with crimson eyes. Thanks a lot, kid. Really.

"I would hope you intend to pick that up."

I'll post a notice in the ooc comm. =D

"Yeah, yeah..."

He glanced up as the redhead entered, shying away ever so slightly.

An ooc note in your journal's fine after a post xD;

[hebi]

"Hn." And Sasuke went right back to his task. Busy, busy.

Okay, thanks! XD ♥

Jun slowly picked up another book, shaking it a few times before daring to open it, and when he found that it was safe enough, he plopped down, opening it, but not really reading it. Instead he kept a close watch on Sasuke and the redhead from underneath his bangs, curious to see whether they knew each other or not.
