Who: kakashi and YOU??
Where: various locations around aldrip
What: catch all log with bonus glitch shenanigans
Warnings: none most likely
we work out
[it's a (relatively) cool evening in aldrip, and kakashi is in a small clearing in the woods, doing his exercises. first he runs through a set of basic katas, flowing easily between each pose. then, it's sword practice time. his practice is basic, but clearly well-worn and well known. finally, he takes out the throwing knives. he tosses them at a tree, landing them in a neat vertical line.
he can be interrupted, just announce yourself. it's for your safety, really.]
it's getting smol in here
[one day, if anyone happens to come by kakashi's place to help take care of dogs, or just happens to walk past kakashi's house in general, they might notice something odd. the dogs are congregating around something...or someone...in the center of the yard.
upon investigation, one will find a small boy, who surely can't be older than three or four years old, sitting amongst the dogs. they are giving him lots of attention, nudges, licks and the like, but rather than giggling or fussing like a normal child kakashi is very solemnly trying to give them all pets.]
Let's see...You can be Bull, you can be Goldie, you can be - hey, stop pushing in line! And you can be...
[it seems that, finding himself in a strange place full of friendly dogs, he's decided to keep them. all of them. and once he has the BEST PACK OF DOGS EVER, maybe he'll figure out where the hell he is.]
now bring it back, old-style
[another day, kakashi wakes up and....oh. huh. suddenly he's twenty-six instead of twelve. how did that happen again?
nonplussed, he decides he might as well get on with his life in aldrip. the dogs are out next door just as he remembers, toph's house is next door...toph. the one friend he never managed to kill, it'll be nice to see her again. and he is the responsible type. so...
he feeds and waters the dogs, giving them their typical ten-at-a-time morning walk through aldrip. he might even wave to those he knows as he passes by.
once that's done, he reports to the casino as usual, walking in as though he belongs and taking up point in a shady corner. every now and then he steps in to stop an altercation or calm down a rowdy customer, but for the most part he hangs around in the corners, seemingly reading a small orange book and not paying attention at all.]

You like being a teacher, huh? I like it a lot more than I expected to.
[ However fundamentally ridiculous it is to have Toph at age 12 and then 13 as a teacher, absolutely no one is going to tell her she isn't qualified. ]
no subject
[kakashi certainly isn't, he's very sure she can do whatever she sets her mind to. that's the cool thing about toph, it always seems like she can do anything.]
no subject
Wow, it's so weird hearing you talk like that. I guess I get to, too, but it's not like I'm going to turn anybody away if they have nowhere to go.
[ She glosses past this highly revealing statement like it's nothing. ]
What do you teach? Ninja stuff?
no subject
Ninja stuff, of course. I guess you could consider me a field instructor - or a commander of a junior unit. I get to skip all the boring parts and just teach the fun stuff!~
[he sounds so cheery all of a sudden. well, making his precious little students do exercises and run around the village is fun for him, anyway.]
no subject
Half of what they tell you is just what some guy a hundred years ago said, and it ends up not even being true. But people just believe it so they never try to push their boundaries. [ Toph broke so many rules of earthbending precisely because she didn't let anyone tell her what was or wasn't possible, no matter how long-standing the belief. ]
I make all my students start with a lot of practicing.
no subject
[he says, musing to himself more than anything. that's probably true of any public education system, though.]
Haha, that's the spirit. After all, practice makes perfect, right?
