Ya-ho! This is the voicemail of the one and only Shogun! Sorry for not picking up, but the energetic life of a mad scientist waits for no call! It does check for messages though, so feel free to leave one.

Bye bye!

[ Looking over when he notices someone coming his way. ]

Cypress-chan?

Re: 297, very early morning

[vitainmorte]

Hello...

[ that's her voice! She hesitates again before coming a little closer.

Even with the hood on it's easy enough to see the tight pink of fresh scarring over her face, but she doesn't otherwise seem worse for wear. ]

Re: 297, very early morning

[scarvedforlife]

... You look tired. Get enough rest?

Re: 297, very early morning

[vitainmorte]

-- ha!

[ it's a sharp noise that sort of escapes her throat unwillingly, and she covers her mouth.

... then murmurs, ]

Oh-- no. No. I won't be.

Re: 297, very early morning

[scarvedforlife]

Nightmares?

[ Offering a hand for hers for a moment. ]

Re: 297, very early morning

[vitainmorte]

[ she doesn't say anything for a moment.

... actually, she doesn't respond at all, frowning, but she carefully reaches for his hand. hers is burned much the same as her face. ]

Re: 297, very early morning

[scarvedforlife]

If you don't want to, it's okay. Especially if it hurts. But looks aren't going to drive me off.

Re: 297, very early morning

[vitainmorte]

... no, I've been fully healed.

[ takes his hand; the skin a little disconcertingly smooth and tight in places, but her grip is firm.

By her expression it seems like normally she'd be a little flushed, but, well. it's a mixture between slightly disbelieving embarrassment and relief, honestly. ]

Re: 297, very early morning

[scarvedforlife]

Just sensitive?

[ Giving a small squeeze to her hand before heading for the train station. ]

Re: 297, very early morning

[vitainmorte]

No. No, I'm just...

[ gives a helpless shrug, but lets herself be led; she drifts closer to his side once they're out of the hotel, to stay within that small bubble of body warmth. ]

Re: 297, very early morning

[scarvedforlife]

Anything you wanna talk about? Or would you rather have a distraction?

Re: 297, very early morning

[vitainmorte]

Oh... no, a distraction. Please.

[ a pause, though, squeezing his hand. ]

... but even just... this, is nice.

Re: 297, very early morning

[scarvedforlife]

Hmm, okay, let's go to Harajuku then.

Re: 297, very early morning

[vitainmorte]

Hara...?

I thought you were picking up breakfast?

Re: 297, very early morning

[scarvedforlife]

There's a conbini there! And privacy!

Re: 297, very early morning

[vitainmorte]

[ oh... ]

Your unitmates aren't waiting on you to bring anything home...?

Re: 297, very early morning

[scarvedforlife]

Most of them probably won't be waking up for a bit. Don't worry, I've got a pretty good idea of the time restraint, we'll be fine for a bit.

Re: 297, very early morning

[vitainmorte]

... were you not sleeping well? Or do you always wake up this early?

Re: 297, very early morning

[scarvedforlife]

I'm a terrible menace in the mornings. But today I wanted to get up early to treat everyone else.

Re: 297, very early morning

[vitainmorte]

[ god. this boy. ]

... you're very sweet, Sho.

Re: 297, very early morning

[scarvedforlife]

Shh, don't give away that I've got something under this bad boy scientist exterior.

Re: 297, very early morning

[vitainmorte]

[ nudges him, gently; there's a bit of a teasing note in her voice, subdued. ]

Might want to try harder? Haven't seen any "bad" yet.

Re: 297, very early morning

[scarvedforlife]

I'll have you know I'm the Ikebukuro Bad Boy!

Re: 297, very early morning

[vitainmorte]

Ah, right... your street gang where you follow girls around at night, mm?

Re: 297, very early morning

[scarvedforlife]

And take them on charming dates during the day!
