LOG, COMPLETE.
When; After the attack and while Gaara is recovering at home.
Rating; PG for Gaara's ugly mug.
Characters; Nara Shikamaru (![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
plsgtfo) and Sabaku no Gaara (sandmullet)
Summary; Shikamaru decides to make a visit to Gaara's apartment to ask some questions... at 2 in the morning.
Log; It wouldn't have been a lie to say that Shikamaru didn't have a fucking clue what he was doing.
There was something off about this world, something that didn't work off of pure logic alone. It made Shikamaru uncertain and unsteady about his capabilities, but he wouldn't let that be shown. He had always been praised for his levelheaded thought process, so why stop now? He would make it his goal to keep the ninjas of Konoha and Suna together—at least until they all reached home...
... and that's why they needed to get to the bottom of this, because intuition told him that Gaara couldn't take the ichibi conflict again. Physically, Shikamaru had no doubt that Gaara would be able to overcome it but mentally—
Gritting his teeth, he slowly made his way up the stairs of the building, looking a lot more serious than he had initially intended. Had he been more careful, more focused on the Kazekage's well-being, and quicker, perhaps the ichibi wouldn't have gotten out. If he was stronger... if he was smarter... if, if, if. That's why he had to make up for his losses. Why they had to figure. this. out.
Stopping by the door, he paused momentarily, hand raised to knock. Quiet enough for the sleeping to ignore, but annoying enough for raging insomniacs to hear.
"It's me."
