[And here's Hei again, back to his normal blank and emotionless self--except maybe for a vague sort of frustration--sometime after this. Oh, and he's also pretty much covered in blood. It's spattered all over the front of his coat and the sleeves are largely drenched in it. There's some spatter on his face and neck as well, though he doesn't really seem to notice. He's also holding his knife--also covered in blood and dripping it onto the floor, adding to the mess.]

[He looks around, a bit surprised by his surroundings, then just shrugs.]

So much for that.

[And he sets about trying to clean off his knife with a rag, muttering about drycleaning.]

You are uninjured, I hope?

[contract_star]

[Doesn't look up at Mu, intent on cleaning his knife.]

Mostly.

[lamb_of_gold]

Mostly?

[contract_star]

I think some of this is mine. Nothing serious, though.

[Sam stares for a very long time, because WOW that's evidence for something he'd prefer not to believe]

Are all of my mates secretly murderers, and should I worry that this is the type of person I gravitate towards?

[contract_star]

[Sighs a little but keeps cleaning the knife.]

Hello, Mr. Tyler.

[didorothy]

What happened?

[contract_star]

Misaki was hunting a gang of Contractors. They killed her. So I decided to find them myself.

[Dino pops onto the Plane shortly after Hei. He has blood on him too, although some of it is clearly his own. And his coat is mostly in tatters. He is also hold his box in his hand. He gives Hei a tired look, then just plops on the ground, to tired to care if anyone sees him like this.]</i.

[Looks down at Dino, perhaps vaguely concerned.]

Alright?

[buckingbronco.livejournal.com]

I've had worse. [Peels off his coat and looks at it sadly] And this was my favorite one too.

[contract_star]

[Smirks a little.] That's too bad. I'm not sure mine will ever be the same again, either.

[ADSKFLJH'HF;FSF] HEY!! HEY YOU! Mr. Shengshun! I'm trying to clean up here!! Damn it.

[contract_star]

[Raises his eyebrows, then looks at the blood dripping on the floor.]

Oh, right. Sorry--I'll clean it up.

[mustbesymmetric.livejournal.com]

Thank you! Ugh, does everyone leave their messes here? This place needs a janitor.

[contract_star]

Actually, this is the messiest I've seen the Plane become. It's usually much more peaceful around here. [Small smile.] I suppose it does need a janitor at this point, doesn't it?

Bee-Kay?

[contract_star]

Hi, Cy.

[Pauses.] It's not mine. I'm alright.

[cyfor.livejournal.com]

[Mad kitty is mad.] Not okay! Not! Bad Bee-Kay, bad boy!

[immortalmistake.livejournal.com]

[Shoves his hands into his pockets.] Still gonna try and play the scrub?

[contract_star]

[Rolls his eyes a little.] I hardly ever understand what you're saying, you know.

[immortalmistake.livejournal.com]

[Just chuckles, though it's a bit more feral than usual.] Scrub. Student. Not my fault you don't speak my language.

So who pissed in your coffee, anyway?

[the Doctor's giving him a pretty serious look since, at this point, he's unaware of the Misaki situation, and he's not big on murder]

Busy day?

[contract_star]

[Doesn't look up at him.] Something like that.

[soimpressive.livejournal.com]

[that's all right, he will do enough staring for the both of them]

And?
