"Umut--You're a shinobi that is trying to cut corners. If you don't value the hard work of working with your hands why the hell are you a pupeteer? Isn't it part of your job description to painstakingly work on your puppets to fine tune them?  But if youw ant incentive, I can clog them up with enough iron powder you will be working on cleaning those for the rest of the week." Shien called up to Umut while he got up off of his gourd, rolling his shoulders and placing his hands together.

In that motion, the gourd rose up from the ground and the ropes that acted like the straps for a backpack slipped on over his arms so the gourd rested neatly over his aft-end. He was just about to get up close to Umut before he heard the screaming coming from Yuutheo.

Shien could only sigh and put his right index finger and thumb between his eyebrows, pinching the bridge of his nose. "Sup Pung--could you get something in the event of rope burns? I'll go get him down." Shien spoke to Sup Pung one last time had she not moved away from him at that point, and promptly got up onto the boat with great speed, moving his way on up, chakra on his feet allowing him to walk up the mast perpendicular to the ground. The gourd from his back burst out into a large cloud of dust, turning into something like a wide brimmed basket that followed.

"You just keep working Nobu, I have this." That basket was lined up with Yuutheo, moving with however the Akimichi was swaying. As Shien neared him, he made sure that the viscosity of the tightly packed sand was soft enough for an impact, but sturdy enough to not let the boy fall through. "DO you need help untangling yourself? Or can you drop down into this on your own?"

Shien was offering Yuutheo a method to save himself and get out of there but he was ready to help untangle the AKimichi. No matter what though, that iron sand basket was going to be catching the AKimichi with such a close proximity to his body. But maybe the sight of Shien standing perpendicular to the ground and so high up on the mast could be a sort of inspiration for the Akimichi? Who knew?
