Tonight your ghost will ask my ghost, 'Who put these bodies between us?'

[Hei and Misaki are at the bar, because apparently that the Place To Be for disfunctional couples. But they aren't hanging all over each other, flirting, kissing, or talking about the kids. They are sitting as far apart as possible while still remaining in the same space. Misaki sits in a booth, flushed, staring into space. Hei is at the bar facing the opposite direction, drink in hand. Bandaged hand; he appears to have torn it up rather badly.


Reality sucks sometimes.]

[Drunk. So drunk. Muzzy glare. More drinking now.]

[Sits next to her at the bar]

How long have you been drinking?

[chasingstars201.livejournal.com]

Not long enough.

[mercwamouth]

So that's how you deal with being fucked with? You drink yourself into a coma?

[chasingstars201.livejournal.com]

Not typically, no.

[mercwamouth]

Then what makes this any different? Did the mean old twins finally break you?

[She looks at him with the calm of someone ready and willing to kill things regardless of the aftermath.] They killed my children.

[mercwamouth]

[She sets her beer very carefully aside] Or I was waiting for someone who works closely with them. Someone willing to provide information regardless of the risk such information might pose to my health.

...You know I want to help, but they don't trust me yet. I haven't even gotten any payment yet.

[Surprise, surprise]

[chasingstars201.livejournal.com]

I can be patient.

[mercwamouth]

...Still, that kind of life...you could still have it if you wanted it.

[chasingstars201.livejournal.com]

And it can still be taken from me. [She taps the neck of her bottle] It would be best, I think, not to talk about it here.

[mercwamouth]

Or at all, right?

[chasingstars201.livejournal.com]

For the time being.

[mercwamouth]

[Instead of pressing the issue, he just lifts the bottom of his mask, and starts drinking]
