037/003 - The darkness is falling/The sky has turned gray/A hound in the distance is starting to bay

[chasingstars201.livejournal.com]

[BECAUSE THERE HAVEN'T BEEN ENOUGH PUPPIES YET, Misaki appears on the plane looking panicked and clasping a bleeding mutt against her chest. It's obviously very young--not even old enough to be away from its mother, really--sand-colored with white socks and vaguely foxy-looking. Misaki's bruised and her clothes are ripped. The dog doesn't seem to be moving.]

Can someone help me? Please!

[No, hurt puppy!] Let me see him!

[chasingstars201.livejournal.com]

[Offers the dog over, looking rather lost]

[livingchalk.livejournal.com]

What happened to it?

[chasingstars201.livejournal.com]

Bullies.

[contract_star]

What the--what happened?

[exserpens.livejournal.com]

[Looks around to see if anyone else is nearby]

[a sigh, and he gestures toward the puppy]

Do you mind?

[chasingstars201.livejournal.com]

Some stupid boys were hurting him.

[chasingstars201.livejournal.com]

[Holds the puppy out D8 ] Are you a vet?

[exserpens.livejournal.com]

Not...exactly.

[Without taking the dog he leans over it, puts a hand on its side, and blows softly on the puppy. If it had passed away already...it's not so much dead anymore, and its wounds are healed (though the blood is still there, just in the fur).]

[And then he backs away, because if anyone else saw him do that lskdjfl not good D: ]

[contract_star]

[Ducks off the Plane and comes back with his trusty first-aid kit.] Let me see him.

Let me guess, you stepped in to stop them, right?

[The puppy squirms limply, and she hugs him to herself, staring at Crowley in awe.] What did you do?

[chasingstars201.livejournal.com]

Of course. [She lays the puppy down gently] He wasn't doing anything. I don't know where his mom is.

[Crowley is obviously uncomfortable, waving a hand dismissively (which also, if the mun is okay with it, has the side effect of mending the tears in Misaki's clothes?).]

Nothing. I don't know what you're talking about.

[chasingstars201.livejournal.com]

[Certainly~ She looks down in surprise when she feels the cloth move and holds the puppy closer.]

Right... Of.... of course not.

[exserpens.livejournal.com]

Right then. Now that that's been cleared up, what happened to you two?

[chasingstars201.livejournal.com]

Some bullies were beating him up behind the school. [Puppy is squirming more and making little yipping sounds she pets him absently] There weren't any teachers around.

[contract_star]

[Sudden smile.] You never do change.

[Inspecting the puppy.] It's bad, but it could have been a lot worse. You probably saved his life.

[chasingstars201.livejournal.com]

[She blushes and shrugs, stroking one of the puppy's ears gently.]

[contract_star]

[Goes to work on the puppy silently, trimming fur, bandaging and setting a fracture in the puppy's tail.]

[exserpens.livejournal.com]

Ah. [he knows he wouldn't be very convincing at offering condolences, so he doesn't even try]

And you stood up for it?

[7th-experiment.livejournal.com]

Is it dead? [ Kirakishou just doesn't seem all that disturbed by this. ]

[chasingstars201.livejournal.com]

It needed help.

[chasingstars201.livejournal.com]

Is he going to be okay?

[chasingstars201.livejournal.com]

[Hugging the puppy] No. Not yet.

[7th-experiment.livejournal.com]

Hmmm. [ That might be disappointment. But she still peers at the puppy curiously. ] Won't be long, probably! What killed it?
