[There is a whistling noise.

Like something falling.

It is very quickly followed by a grown man's unconventional Japanese-inspired sounds of Oh Shit. But then the journal hits the ground, springs open, and realizes exactly five seconds of a man about to hit the ground at insanely fast speeds. Lucky him, he woke up from his mallynapped... nap... just in the nick of time. No problem! There's a blue glow and he lands on his feet before staggering across a very thick field of plant life.]

Holy... that was close...

[Phew. He blinks down to the journal, and then realizes he's back.

Sure, almost just fell to his death, but he's back!! A smile drags across his face, relieved. The screen makes everything look pretty... normal... lots of sky. Lots of Kotetsu as he scoops up the journal. Must pretend to be a-ok, for his daughter's sake. She's probably already freaked out enough, thinking about how experiments might be. Or what they do there. Cells. All that scary stuff not made for children.]

Kaede!! Papa's back now; sorry if I scared you. I'm on my way home.

[HOPPIN' THROUGH DA FOREST, GLOWIN' ALL COOL.]

This forest really let itself go! I don't remember havin' to swim through so much of this...

[—are trees supposed to be that gigantic? And holy crap, is he wading through grass? He slows to a stop, blinking. His glow shuts down as he skids to a stop on an obscenely large tree log. Look at him. Look at how illogically... He rubs his chin, looks back to the journal.]

Are we in the middle of a shift? Everything's all huge and—

[THERE IS NO WARNING BEFORE A HAWK SWOOPS IN AND TAKES KOTETSU, JOURNAL AND ALL, IN ITS CLAWS

AND JUST

FLIES OFF WITH HIM IN ITS CLUTCHES]



EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEHHHHHH—!!!!

WHAT THE HELL!?!

[SO BEGINS AN ADVENTURE SOMEONE HELP ME

I AM CLINGING TO A BIRD OF PREY'S LEG

I HAVE NO POWERS REMAINING FOR AN HOUR

AT LEAST THEY SHRANK MY TINY WATCH WITH ME???

Anyone who doesn't get the... joy of seeing the message and talking to him during that mess, he'll be running to get back into town, avoiding animals. So if you see a 10 inch tall man in white kidnap pants, it's because the world hates him. Time to go home, no time to waste!!]

[Action]

[Okay. Let us not mention that happened ever again. Eventually, our hero gets out of the clutches of the evil hawk—but now he's in the clutches of... tininess. Can't do anything about it, either. So he spends some of his time in the kitchen of Seventh Heaven (because he will order Kaede to go to school SCHOOL IS IMPORTANT!! But either way, he'll get to stick around parkouring around with his wire. It's good exercise. Co-workers and lurkers, don't mind him.

... He may or may not be attempting to wash the counters with a large rag by running across it dojo-style.

Yosh!! Can't give up my occupation just because of a little height disadvantage!!

Please god, don't let this last long. He's too clumsy to be this short.]

((ooc: kotetsu is gonna be a very lil' dude until around the 13th/14th of April. Open to anything! Time a-ok to break with me. :|b))

[Is that... a tiny man pushing a cloth around? Vash had come in here for lunch, but this was way more entertaining.

He shrugs off his brown coat and sits down to enjoy the show.] Malnosso, huh?

voice;

[towered]

Oh my goodness gracious, are you alright!?

[ No that's a dumb question, Flora, he's being whisked away by a hawk. Shucks!! That must be an awkward pickle to be in, and she's not really sure how to help the little guy get out of it.

It's not like she can just leave him there, though... ]

A-Ah, maybe if you...if you try wiggling around you'll slip from his clutches....[ Though that might be a bad idea, given he's...flying. Through the air. Oh gosh darnit, why isn't she better at this helping people thing. ]

[Action] - 1/2

[Someone far, far smaller than ten inches happens to be also hopping her way through the forest, some few yards away, cutting off leaves and berries from freshly flowering plants and bushes. Spring is just around the corner, so plants are starting to bloom - or have already done so early. This is just her usual routine around this year, looking for herbs for medicinal purposes or to make fresh tea. Or spices! Miyabi never did like the things like that that were in the market. The tea there was especially hideous.

Just as she's going about her business, she spies a hopping blue blur, and it catches her attention immediately. Could it be...another poncle? It was too far away to see clearly, but what else glows and hops like that? It could be Mono...but she's sure none of her friends ever glowed that hue of blue.]

[Lalala, just browsing the journals--oh, look, Kotetsu is home! How lovely!

She's just about to give him a big old welcome back when SUDDENLY EXTREME CHANGE IN PERSPECTIVE.]

Oh, my. Kotetsu? Are you all right?

[Action] But while he's running home. If that's okay.

[Jigen was lounging outside, enjoying the weather and a smoke or two. Currently he has sitting underneath a tree, just a short distance outside the village. He needed the space to think.

Of course this time is interrupted by a tiny man running into his peripheral vision. Jigen blinks and lifts his hat up so he can see better.

Nope, still an approximately 12 inch man. Right there. Running.

Huh.]

What's the rush?

[Hey, this place is weird. Maybe he's supposed to be around 10 inches tall. Jigen doesn't know.]

[entreats]

[ See, at first she was just interested since she heard that name and she remembers that little girl she talked to, so she's fairly sure who is this then.. but then the feed ends like that. What. ]

Looks like you got a nice free trip. [ calmly.. ]

[Action]

[concasse]

[MY GODS that's a huge bug.

GONNA JUST SMACK IT OFF THE COUNTER.]

[action!] while he's running home?

[zeropoints]

[Kotetsu better watch out because that sure is a huge butt about to land on him. But blame not this bony teenage tush! Blame it on Tsuna's extreme bad luck instead. He's just trippin' over all these Luceti rocks, which he swears are bigger than your average rock...]
