043: Goodbye Blue Sky

[contract_star]

[Hei is back, a day after his movie plot with the others ended and also a day after helping Mu and Misaki rescue Kiki. Therapy Blob is with him, chilling in a little wicker basket with a bit of lettuce, making purring sounds.]

[Hei, however, looks rather preoccupied and tense. It seems as if he's only just managing to keep his anger under control. He's also wearing the full Black Reaper getup, sans mask.]

I knew this would happen. I knew I should have--damn it all.

Chris--and Crowley--I...need to talk to both of you.


[ooc: Yin has been kidnapped by the Syndicate. Approach with caution.]

[EEE PURRING THING. Only wait, Hei is not happy. D: ] Signore?

[contract_star]

Henrietta. [Forces a bit of a smile.] Feeling better?

[fireintothesky.livejournal.com]

Yes, but what's wrong? [Pats the blob gently.]

[swanseer.livejournal.com]

[Have a slightly uncertain Juni] ...Hei?

[contract_star]

[Absently,] Yes?

[swanseer.livejournal.com]

Is anything wrong?

[madamemoiselle]

{Worried} Ne, Hei, what happened?

[contract_star]

They took Yin.

[madamemoiselle]

{Man Hei, your life is made of failure. So Diva just decides to hug Hei tightly.}

I'm really sorry Hei. Ne, but we can get her back, right?

[ghostlighter]

[... gd it. You have the blob still? B| I mean— he's totally not going to antagonize you about that right now. He sounds kind of concerned, actually.]

What's going on?

[contract_star]

[Notices the look.] It was at Diva's house for some reason. It can't transform anymore...I tested it. I don't know why, but it's not much other than a blob right now.

[Long pause.] Chris, I don't like asking favors, but...will you look after Henrietta? It looks like I'm not going to be able to take her to my world.

[ghostlighter]

Did anyone else test it? Maybe it just doesn't react to your voice anymore. [Still very wary, thank you.]

... What happened? [This is obviously srs business.] I mean, of course I will. Not sure what I'll do about the Agency, but... [He shrugs.]

[exserpens.livejournal.com]

You rang?

[contract_star]

[Hei isn't entirely happy to see him, or about what he has to ask, so it takes a moment for Hei to say anything.]

I'm not going to be taking Henrietta to my world. [Pause.] I've asked Chris to look after her for now, but...it would be helpful if you could keep an eye on her as well. [Another pause.] I don't trust you, but I know you care about her. That's the only reason I'm asking.

[Crowley remains impassive throughout Hei's little speech. When he speaks his voice is calm and even.]

If that's what you think best. I'll tell her to gather her things.

[lamb_of_gold]

[Notices the getup] No rest for the weary, I take it.

[contract_star]

Of course not.

[lamb_of_gold]

What happened?

[saythistostart.livejournal.com]

[And he'd been doing so well at avoiding Hei recently, too.]

Hei-san...?

[contract_star]

Ryotarou.

...Haven't seen you in awhile.

[saythistostart.livejournal.com]

[Ducks his head a little. Pointing it out doesn't help much.]

I've been... busy, back home. Another Imagin showed up.

[buckingbronco.livejournal.com]

Hei, what's wrong? [Looking pretty tired himself. Oh, and he's giving the blob a funny look.]

[contract_star]

The Syndicate took Yin.

[durch-feuer.livejournal.com]

{Smiles~} So you decided to keep your odd thing as a pet?

[contract_star]

[Instantly on edge.] It can't transform anymore. I didn't know what else to do with it.

[ooc: Hei is just SO HAPPY~~]
