036: All of the Ink That Was Bled From Her Hands

[contract_star]

[Hei appears with a small desk in a spot on the Plane out of the way of the normal traffic. Hei is sitting at the desk with a couple of bowls of ramen beside him as well as a cup of tea. He's writing in your basic composition notebook; he seems to have filled up a few pages already. He also seems quite intent on whatever he's writing.]

[Oh, and you might notice that one of his forearms is almost completely wrapped in bandages.]

[Is sitting a ways a way, doing pretty much the same thing. Does not notice you, Hei]

[contract_star]

[Hei is too focused to notice Misaki either, until he pauses to reach for a new bowl of ramen and spots her.]

Ah...doing work as well?

[chasingstars201.livejournal.com]

[Twitch] Yes. What are you doing?

[lamb_of_gold]

[Oooh dear] What have you done to yourself.

[contract_star]

[Blinks.] Hm? Oh. You mean this? [Shifts his bandaged arm, which moves rather stiffly.]

Acid burn. I had some difficulties once I reached Diva's house.

[lamb_of_gold]

May I see?

S...signore?

[contract_star]

[Looks up at the sound of her voice.] Hello, Henrietta.

[fireintothesky.livejournal.com]

Are you all right?

[Ryotarou, ever the lurker, notices this and is concerned about the bandages. He approaches... before he remembers their last conversation, and puts it together with the notebook. He stops, thinks for a moment, and then turns around, considering dropping from the Plane entirely.]

[Hei almost doesn't notice Ryo until he reaches for his tea and spots him.]

Ryotarou, wait a second. I have a question.

[buckingbronco.livejournal.com]

What happened to you?

[contract_star]

[Blinks and looks up.] Hm? Oh, I was just in a fight with some Contractors. The Syndicate is impatient.

[livingchalk.livejournal.com]

Hello.

[contract_star]

[Looks up and smiles.] Hello again.

[crowheaded.livejournal.com]

Yo.

[a pause]

'the hell happened to you?

[contract_star]

[Careful glance at Ikki.] I was in a fight.

[Hello, Hei! Ten is trying to talk to you more, hence saying hi]

You look busy.

[contract_star]

Ah...sort of. I'm just taking notes.

{Diva is looking at what he's writing by very carefully leaning against and over his shoulder, but then looks to the bandaged arm}

Ne, that must hurt, Hei. You'll get one of the people here to heal it, right? That kind of thing, it will...will...

{She doesn't know this word! So she pauses before continuing with her weird definition of a scar} You know, when your skin turns really ugly after you get a bad wound?

[contract_star]

[She might notice random things like "teenager", "nice kid" and "Japanese."]

It's not as bad as it was. But I'll find Mu or something.

...You mean scar?

[swanseer.livejournal.com]

[Edges over] What are you working on?

[contract_star]

I'm just taking notes on a few things.

[A little flushed and sweaty still, but looking much recovered.] You look like Beka with her journal.

[contract_star]

She keeps a journal? What of?
