Matsuya looked up, looking at LT. "Hey...." He didnt have much to say at the moment. He wasnt training, fighting, or have anything to do. So he would have no reason to talk much. At least not until he had something to do.

A rhythmic beating drifted into the room, as Mello was slowly leaving the mist world. The door into the mizukage's office seemed to open on it's own as the drumming grew in intensity. Two eyes could be seen through the door opening, one a slightly darker tint than the other. Before a stray beam of light illuminated Mello's entire body. As he took a step into the office he was followed by a trail of mist as the door slowly closed behind him, once again seemingly on it's own. Not even making eye contact with a single person in the room he immediately got down on his knees, looking at the floor as he began to speak. "Lord mizukage I am Mello Kaito of the village hidden in the stars," Mello began to explain his identity the corner's of his mouth twitching. "I ask your permission to speak with you freely," giving the image of him being a simple shinobi with a request from the mizukage.

LT was taken aback by the new entrance of this shinobi. Mello Kaito? "Is there something we can help you with? Im LT, Jounin of the Mist." He held out a cup of coffee for the new shinobi to take.

Matsuya scoffed. "You arent the only jounin anymore LT. I am too." Matsuya was still looking at the floor. The bags under his eyes told his story, he hadnt slept in a while. And Matsuya doubted any amount of LT's coffee could help. Matsuya sighed, slipping on the jounin vest over the bandages that were wraped around his chest. "It's a good fit. Strange." Matsuya's voice was quiet, his eyes watching the newcomer now.

Opening the winidow, Luo took the note from the bird and nodded, shooing it away as he turned to see the man entering as he was in the middle of telling LT, "Yes, you are hereby relieved of your du--." As the man came in and bowed, Luo showed him the same respect, bowing and standing back up. The man was certainly not a normal individual, so Luo kept an eye on him while he nodded. "Yes you may speak freely Mello. What can I help you with?"

The door once again opened and Shigoro stepped through, mist curling around his feet and clinging to his coat as the door remained open behind him, showing an apparently endless realm of mist. He looked at Mello, irritation in his eyes. "I toldja not to go so far ahead o' me, Mell-kun. You know I can't use Kiritoguchi as well as you can."
((NOTE: The irritation is fake, the 'Kiritoguchi' likewise. It translates as 'Mist Door.'))

Mello raised his head, a smirked formed on his face for a moment before it took a completely neutral look. As he stood he was revealed to be a normal build, wearing an abnormal leather vest. A scar stretched across the right side of his face, indicating he was the possible victim of a fire. His right eye was closed, but he could have possibly lost it in the same injury. As he stood up the silver cross around his neck swung back and forth while he reached into his pocket. He drew out a jar filled with water, two round objects floating within the liquid. "One of our shinobi plucked these out of an akatsuki within your borders, can you guess what they are?" He asked innocently wondering if the Kage could guess what he had brought before him. He turned to the man behind him,"I'm sorry sir, but most of our ninja cannot figure out your brilliant inventions."
"Whatever it takes, I will become the greatest."

Staring at the pair, Luo sighed as he sat down. If he wasn't one for detail, he would have waived away the smirk on the man's face at the beginning, but he took a light note of it, being wary of his words. "Well, I did have men watching their movements, but I'm going to take a guess and say the only thing on an akatsuki's body worth taking are the rings they wear on their fingers. So two rings, am I correct?"

((@ilink: Shigoro's posing as a fellow Hidden Star shinobi, and pretending that his Mist Room is a jutsu. If anyone asks, he'll claim to be either a Jonin or a low-level ANBU. Oh, and he's also going to play the idiot unless Matsuya and LT both leave and don't listen at the door.
@Luo: The things in the jar are two eyes.))
Shigoro cocked his head to one side. "What'cha talkin' about, Mell-kun? Ma developed the jutsu, not me."
HE looked up, as if noticing the Mizukage for the first time. "Oh, hi."
He turned back to Mello, an expression of mild confusion on his face. "Who's the guy with the fancy headgear?"
Behind the mask of good-natured idiocy, Shigoro watched. The one who had been addressed as 'El-Tee' was relatively powerful, but would not be a challenge if it came down to a fight. The sleep-deprived one, who had apparently just become a Jonin, would be slightly less of a challenge. The only real threat would be the Mizukage himself, and a Grand Tease, or possibly just shoving him into the Mist, would easily end that threat.

Mello chuckled,"What value would their rings have?" He asked the mizukage unsure of how he had come to that conclusion. The shinobi turned the jar once more to show two preserved eyeballs without pupils. "Byakugan," he explained slowly placing the jar in Luo's view. He turned back towards Shigoro rolling his eyes. "If it weren't for your influential parents, you would still be stuck in the academy." He commented to himself before returning his attention to the mizukage. Mello placed the jar delicately on the mizukage's desk keeping a hand on it for safety. "But you know all the rebuilding on our village has been tough so we were wondering, how much would somebody pay for one of our little trophies." He said quietly.

Luo shrugged a bit. "I heard the rings they wear are quite the expensive artifact. They could each fetch probably a couple thousand each easily." He then looked at the jar on his bamboo table. "Well first of all, why would I pay for one of those when I could go get one myself for free? What is it about this pair of byakugan eyes that makes them so special if I may ask?"

Shigoro rolled his eyes. "An' if your Pa wasn't a secretary to the Daimyo then you wouldn't have got into the Academy in th' first place."
HE heard the Mizukage's question, and the demeanor vanished. "Can't go discussin' stuff like that in front o' the grunts. Maybe you wanna send 'em out of the room? Village elders said we could only tell you their offer."

Matsuya scoffed. He had listened, and at long end he had enough. "The grunts?! Who the hell do you think your dealing with!? I dont bow down to foreigners! No matter who they may be, or who their kin is!" The bags under his eyes seemed to fade in seconds. His anger was obvious.

Luo raised a left eyebrow specifically to Matsuya. "Mind your tongue and your manners Matsuya, lest you forget the only reason you earned that jacket in the first place. Watch my office." Luo then put both hands on the table as he stood, his robes ruffling with the movement. Looking at the two men he pointed upwards. "Meet me on the roof. And you'd be surprised what these 'grunts' can do. Don't insult my shiniobi." In an instant, the Mizukage's body disintegrated into mist out of the window, his form coming back together on the flat rooftop.

Shigoro dropped the facade and jumped up to the roof, passing effortlessly through the roof and hovering an inch or so above the rooftop before he let himself settle to the floor. "Forgive the act, Lord Mizukage, but I generally find it facetious to act the buffoon. i meant no disrespect to your subordinates, whom I can see have exceptional skills in their own rights."
