Setting up. [Any Akatsuki]

"yes. but its confined in a twelve pronged seal." she had several jars now, the arm was long and thin, but extremely durable. miyuki went closer for the other blocks, making the fingers, with nails, cuticles. the puppet master noticed that the grain trail was twisted, spiraling along the arm as if it was strengthend thaat way.

Daedalus thought hard at this point, all while admiring her work. She was a natural really.

"Nicely done, petrify it for even more durability if you want... You can do that instantly, takes me years to petrify my limbs. But what you're telling me, is due to teh fact that it's simply a higher frontal lobe activity, anyone can use chi? I understand that perhaps not to a point where a Willow can... but what could you teach me on the subject?"

"well....to tell you the truth, strategists and puppeteers already have a considerable amount of chi. they just cant see or control it." she said, petrifying the wood.

Daedalus nodded, "Due to the fact that we need to access higher brain functions to combat... So without the ability to control it, could I use chakra to forcibly emit it?" The subject was getting increasingly interesting. If Daedalus could create even a few simple techniques using Chi, it would save him high amounts of necessary chakra.

" like i keep explaining to you, chi flows externally. thats why we can teleport. we temporarily stop the flow, if there is no chi flow, there is no you."

Daedalus frowned again, "Well, your explanations aren't very clear. I still believe there's got to be a way around the barrier, a way for humans, and perhaps even animals to manipulate it to some degree. regardless, if you're finished with the outer design, we can move on to weapons."

"hm." she began moulding the rest of the body. " animals have the lowest amount of chi, they can never acess it, you have more chi than ive seen in a human besies kitaro after he became chikage." (hence the word chikage)

Daedalus in turn fished multiple weapons from panels on the walls. "You can reimburse me for these later. And I'll take the Chi thing as a compliment. I suppose it'll increase even more after the Willow heart in me falls into cooperation. Not even sure what benefits it will give me, but i'm somewhat hoping it'll keep you Willows from turning the only part of me that's still alive into rubber."

"i hope so too. then who am i going to learn puppeteering from?" miyuki took out a black sroll when she opend it, there was a package of black skin. " this was from the last time ki died." she attached it to her puppet. after that she closed her eyes next to the puppet. working on its internal workings without revealing their secrets.

"Not sure, but I hear there's some chuunin in Suna who can control up to three puppets now!" Daedalus laughed at his own sarcasm, returning to his own table once again removing his heart. Taking a close look at it, he began tinkering some more. Before putting it down and summoning most of his bladed weapons. Precariously, he then dipped each one in a new poison he had developped, designed from Willow genetics. He was astounded from what he could do with Willow dna strands alone. And it turns out Ki had left him his entire organ list... marvelous!

miyuki opend her eyes. " three? kankurou isnt skilled with them yet. and his puppets are too simple, he didnt even make them." she took out another scroll from her sleeve. she activated it and stacks of cloth she made from her loom apeard, the whole rainbow. she took out the loom itelf and began to connect some together, cutting and sewing with one of her claw husks and her own willow hair strands.

"He has potential, he uses the same style Sasori used to. I suppose he has to, Sasori made the puppets after all. Even the great Sasori limited himself to a mere hundred however, I suppose there's only so much work you can do off of someone else's creation. Sasori worked from Monzaemon's breakthrough's, I from his. I wonder though, will you be a Kankurou, following in foot steps, or a Sasori, walking past where the foot steps end."

miyuki remained silent. "i have a question. if i told you that i could bring puppets to life, what would you do?" she asked. not taking her eyes off of the loom.

Daedalus smirked a little. "if you could bring puppets to life, it'd no longer be puppetry, but slavery. But in all honesty, I don't think I'm quite sure what I would do. The power of a puppeteer is based on working with the inanimate. If they were constantly alive, the point of controlling them with strings is well, pointless. But if you could have it so that it is a temporary effect. Well, now you're switching between puppetry, to simply having an ally who happens to have bladed inards."

"hm. i see." miyuki made the outfit for her puppet. she then began putting the large puppet in the clothes.

Daedalus nodded, "Like I said, although I'm sure it has uses, an old dog like me has spent too long working with the dead and inanimate, I simply wouldn't know what to do with it."

"well, they are useful, but they're feelings are intolerable." she took ut some paints and began to do the face and hands.

"You should probably install your weapons before you paint it... They're easier to blend in and conceal that way."

" i already did. that part i used with the atom eye." she said quietly.

"So that's what that entire mysticism thing was... Interesting. Not sure why you have to hide it's weapons from your fellow member, but so be it. I suppose the organization can't ever really be trusted."

Daedalus whistled through his jaw parts, deciding to let her do her own thing while he put his parts together.

myiuki stood back and blinked. she had added another pupil to her eye. the puppet looked up and around. he stood up and bowed. he was twice the size of miyuki, which was about the size of a regualr person.

Daedalus looked up from his place.

"All ready to go?" He grinned, "Feel free to take it/him for a training run, you may may want to alter the balance or reposition the weapons a bit, but it's up to you."

miyuki nodded. she walked out of the room with the puppet going after her. " thankyou for the advice."

Daedalus nodded, once again returning to his work, ever perseverant.
