It's an impressive leap, all things considered. Shikamaru spots it from a distance, where he's been smoking a cigarette on the roof of a nearby building, and recognizes it as a sport that many people proclaim to play in the city. Parkour, they call it.
Shikamaru prefers to think of it as the fastest way of traveling, but he's not picky about names.
Still, the man leaping around seems to show more than a hint of nervousness, which is what drives Shikamaru to make his way back to the street, similarly leaping off of walls and electric poles.
"You okay?" he asks as he drops onto the ground, his footfalls silent.
