045 - Hey there, there's such tender wolves ‘round town tonight [round the town tonight]

[She's sitting at her old kitchen table, for once completely clean of its usual coating of papers. In its place, a bowl of popcorn, a bottle of sake and an itty bitty ochoko cup. She's sorting through a small stack of books with various work-related titles, finally picking out Experiments in Criminology and Law.

Misaki looks at the map of Tokyo that stands opposite her, still marked with red and blue pins, and a tiny, tiny smile twitches on her lips. She pours herself and ochoko full of sake and opens up her book.]

[Here's a worn-out Hei. He smiles a bit tiredly.]

You did it.

[chasingstars201.livejournal.com]

[Smiles back] We did.

[contract_star]

[Bigger smile. He's not sure whether to tell her about Yin and about his plan.]

What are you going to do now?

[chasingstars201.livejournal.com]

[Taps her fingers on the table.] Wait for the next case, I suppose.

[contract_star]

No celebration? No awards?

[mercwamouth]

Alcohol?

[chasingstars201.livejournal.com]

[Puts her hand over the top of the tokkuri and glares at him.] My alcohol.

[mercwamouth]

But booze works best when shared.

[chasingstars201.livejournal.com]

[Shifts it away from him.] I'm enjoying it just fine.

[mercwamouth]

Ingrate.

[SENSES A DISTURBANCE IN THE FORCE after a moment and looks up with a smile.] Mu. How's Kiki?

[lamb_of_gold]

Exhausted, and refuses to settle unless Shion or I are in the room, but otherwise well.

How are things faring on your end?

[chasingstars201.livejournal.com]

Good. The city's been quiet since.

[lamb_of_gold]

And the children?

[Have a kitty sniffing at your bowl of popcorn, Misaki.]

[chasingstars201.livejournal.com]

[....well hullo.] How did you get here?

[thedeltaqueen.livejournal.com]

Same way you did, hon. Mind if I help myself?

[chasingstars201.livejournal.com]

[Blink. Okay. Not the weirdest thing that has happened here. Weirdest thing happening at this moment, but hey, she can deal.]

Please, go right ahead. Are you... Cy?

[thedeltaqueen.livejournal.com]

[Sealink's already shoved her head into the bowl by the time she asks, and she looks up in mild surprise, bits of popcorn sticking to her fur.] The name's Sealink, hon. I take it you ain't met Cy yet?

[madamemoiselle]

Ne, things are looking up for you?

[chasingstars201.livejournal.com]

They are. [Smiles at her.]

[madamemoiselle]

{Smiles a bit} Then I'm glad for you. What happened?

[chasingstars201.livejournal.com]

Mu, Hei and myself stopped some kidnappers from my reality.
