Hades @tobisden
"Did I just see you regurgitate a scroll and swallow it again like it was nothing?" Hades isn't sure if he's disgusted or impressed.
They had been warned to stop messing with that jutsu, that trying to mimic the power of the rinnegan was a messy ordeal, and would likely end them up in trouble. Since the serpent had never heeded warnings, those words fell on deaf ears, and before they knew it, they had succeeded in one aspect of their objective. Or so they had thought. But portals were just as fickle as they had been told. Where they had ended up, when they felt gravity crush and swallow them whole, is a question they have not yet answered. The fail safe scroll they had kept on their person, or in their person as it were, did not appear to be working in this land. So it ends up being returned to its place, a rather eerie show when they swallow it like a serpent does a mouse. Appearing to defy physics, while looking so very effortless. The scroll was a reverse summon, and it was meant to transfer them back to their hideout when activated. That had failed, making them wonder just how far form home they were. A strangers voice breaks them from their thoughts, and they turn to look at the man - his dress code suggests they’re very far after all.
But swallowing objects whole as they are so prone to doing is something even those in their world find strange and inhuman, so for the moment, nothing seems considerably off about his comment. Well, if he had seen them with the scroll, there was a high chance he saw them arrive. And they just couldn’t have word getting out about their meddling with more illegal jutsu. A smile tugs lightly at their lips, as they turn to face the man with a deceptively friendly expression. “If you did, I’d have to kill you,” they say, “so why don’t you tell me dear, did you see anything?”
