I would like to report to you about the bug, Turanis-sama. Because of so-called 'bug attack', it is currently impossible for anybody but you (and possibly but Shadowdragon) to post in "Ninjutsu Students" thread because "Ninjutsu Students" thread got locked (even it is not shown) in result of this so-called 'bug attack'. Please, Turanis-sama, click 'Lock/Unlock' button among your admin options in "Ninjutsu Students" thread, as this is supposed to solve this problem.

I understand, Kenji-san. As for me, please call me Akiyama-san, if you please. requested Eri, bowing slightly.
Ummm...
I have a llittle question, which, I guess, I should have asked a bit earlier.
Did you wrote down your name and surename in Japanese order (i.e. surename first, name second; in this case Akiyama is your surename, and Eri is your name), or did you wrote down your name and surename in european order (i.e. name first, surename second; in this case Eri is your surename and Akiyama is your name)?
At first, I though that your wrote down your name and surename in Japanese order, since Eri sounds very much like a name, for me at least. But your last post made me doubt about it a little bit. Would you please shed some light on the situation?

Akiyama is her surname, Eri is her name. Since our characters just met and are only on semi-congenial terms, the proper way to acknowledge one another would be with "last name"-san or "last name"-kun (towards girls or guys, respectively)

Oh, I see and I am sorry. But, as you can guess, there are few opportunities to learn proper etiquette while living among the simple monks in the isolated monastry.

No problem. Perhaps your style of monk would be akin to the wilderness men and cave dwellers common in Chinese folktales. My own personal experience with Japanese monks and priests has been that they are the pinnacle of politeness (even compared to regular Japanese), using the most humbling language towards everyone and showing reverence to everything, be it a caterpillar, a tea leaf, or even a stone.

Since you haven't mentioned, whom of us you will approach first, Mourne-sensei...
Mourne stood on the side of a tree trunk, watching his students with interest for almost two hours. After a bit he blinked, silently he drew out a small needle and began walking to the top of the tree. Once he reached the top he looked about and spotted what he was looking for in the distance... smiling he dropped to the lowest branch. " The first test will now begin..."
...And since Akiyama-san has already reacted as if you have approached her first, Mourne-sensei...
Eri stopped her reading and turned to face Mourne, still sitting respectfully
...I'll assume that you haven't approached me yet, Mourne-sensei, and that I am still sitting under my tree and trying to learn whatever jutsus written upon the scrolls I took.

P.S.
If I understood the situation correctly, I and Akiyama-san are in two different places, because the spot near the waterfall, which I choose, hardly qualify as 'quiet' spot, which Akiyama-san choose.

Akiyama-san, are you sure that Mourne-sensei has approached either of us? IMHO, it is not especially clear from Mourne-sensei's last post.

Mourne-sensei, can you please tell me, what jutsus I managed to learn from the scrolls I took, if I managed to learn any jutsus at all, of course?

Mourne dropped to the ground and walked toward the pavilion, motioning for Eri and Kenji to come with him. He sat quietly on the edge of the porch and waited for you both. As you aproach Mourne begins speaking, "It's time you two put those skills to use, as I speak Ichina and her gennin students close in on us. There has been bad blood between us since I was force to kill her brother. Now she will come after me and use her students to take care of you... You both should get into gear and find a serviceable ambush spot. I'll whistle when you should attack, now go inside and change." Sighing he stood up and gave you both a pat on the shoulder as he ushered you inside. "Please be swift..." Quietly Mourne stepped outside and left you both inside.
I don't want to repeat myself, Mourne-sensei, but it looks like I must.
As far as I understand the current situation, Akiyama-san and I are in two different places, relatively a long way from each other, since Akiyama-san won't find a quiet place anywhere near the waterfall, where I am. And so, Mourne-sensei, I fear that there is no way from me to see either of you, let alone to see that you motion for me to come with you. And needless to say, I have absolutely no way of hearing what you were saying.
Hmmm... IMHO, this whole buisness gets quite confusing by now...

it's okay I sometimes confuse myself. Sorry about the long silence but I've been busy with matters IRL, but i should be back to my old self now. I fixed the location situation, if you want info on the skills they are under Chakra Jutsus.
