Open to all~

Characters: Rock Lee and YOU!! ♥
Location: Shibusen City Park
Rating: G to ?? (depends on the language of who stops by)
Time: mid-afternoon, April 17th
Description: Lee is still down from Gai-sensei and others disappearing earlier in the month. He needs some cheering up, or maybe just someone to distract him.


Lee sat on a park bench with his communicator in his hand. He wasn't looking at the device but rather out over the large park where some happy owners were playing with their dogs. Even then, Lee's gaze wasn't on anyone in particular. His round, dark, orb-like eyes remained fixed and mostly unblinking.

For a teenager who was often full of energy and shouting proclamations of youth, he looked rather somber. The fresh breath of spring was in the air, but for Rock Lee it was hardly a day to celebrate. With his sensei gone, along with Kakashi, several of his friends before them, and now even Temeraire, Lee just felt listless.

Protoss growth and development may not have been ideal to compare to, but the templar had little else. His people had to learn young to stand on their own despite the connection to the Khala, and even if they fought on the battlefield alone, they would do so for honour to earn their place among his people.

Tassadar was pulled from his thoughts though at the odd reaction. Watching as the liquid began to fall from Lee's eyes, he felt a moment of concern before the words followed. It was a reaction he had never seen from a human before, at least not in such large quantities.

"You have always fought well and bravely," he said while inclining his head with respect.

Tassadar was pleased to see that his words had managed to reach some level of comfort within the fighter. Aiding in such ways was foreign for his people, and it had only been since arriving here where he had begun the attempt to bridge the gap further between their two races.

The next reaction, however, confused the templar. Humans were an odd creation, and when it appeared that Lee was uncomfortable over the matter, Tassadar chuckled lightly. "You have nothing to fear for I will not be offended," the templar murmured in reply. "My companion, the prelate Zeratul, was returned to this world as a Weapon, and thus we have been attempting to resonate."

The relief was evident on Lee when he had given his answer. The unnecessary stress and concern the humans seemed to burden themselves with was something the templar had seen time and time again. He supposed that it wasn't all that different from the burdens of the protoss, but most, however, rarely shut themselves away like the humans seemed to do. No, they did so in other ways such as on the battlefield, but to the humans, their minds and emotions often seemed more like the battlefield than any physical one.

"It is of no doubt that we will fight well in battle," Tassadar said in reply. Zeratul had seen him at his worse, and unlike with the humans, the templar felt no need to hide his true self away. While he knew well that there was much the prelate kept to himself, such information would see the light in due time.Tassadar was patient, after all.

The change in the young human had him considering the words seriously. Regarding Lee in quiet thought, Tassadar contemplated what was offered to him. "I see," he murmured lightly at first. Falling quiet for a moment longer, his tone almost seemed to reflect a grandfatherly nature as he next spoke. "Miscommunications are as bound to our lives as breathing. There is no shame in having such an encounter with a companion so long as you both grow and move towards the future. You may find that such miscommunications could find your bonds growing stronger, for they would open you both up."

That was what had happened with Zeratul and himself when they had first met.

Tassadar wouldn't deny the fact that such conversations with humans weren't his strong point. No, infact the human emotions and thought processes were often beyond him, especially given the fact that his true psionic abilities were sealed from him. Yet that didn't stop the templar from attempting. He knew well what it was like to have those who were close disappear, whether it was on this world or any other.

Nodding his head, the offer of thanks was appreciated, even if unnecessary. Pleased to see the change in the renewed energy within Lee, he chuckled lightly. "It is in times like these that you must not forget to look towards the future, and that obstacles will only remain in your path should you allow for it."
