Moving Day! Backdated to the 22nd

[bondsofsuffering]

Who: Hizumi Mizushiro, Ayumu Narumi, Hiyono Yuizaki, and Taro Watanabe. OPEN!
Where: Pisces District, around the apartments and the Narumi Detective Agency.
Summary: After working to turn it into a proper living space, the Spiral kids + a tanuki are moving into a detective agency because of lame name jokes.
Warnings: None.

It took some work, but what better way to distract yourself from certain Shadow pains than to get busy with moving? This may or may not be the reason why Hizumi abruptly called up the others and told them to get their stuff moved in if they wanted a bigger place to stay. And yes, even Hiyono was included in that list - even though he doesn't know a whole lot about her, she's Ayumu's friend from home and seems to know a few things, so why not?

Thus, various people can probably be found running between the apartments and the old Detective Agency. Even if they look busy, maybe they'll have time to stop and say hi?

Gosh, Ayumu, of all the times to bug her, why when she's still busy putting things in order?

Well, she can afford to take an interruption or two. She needs the break anyway.

"Ah--just a moment, Narumi-san~" There's that sing-songy tone of hers. Again. She goes to open the door soon enough, as much of a smiler as ever.

"Sorry, I was getting a few things in order." Not that she had much to begin with, being a recent arrival and all that. Sooner or later she's going to line this room with the usual stuff, like a new laptop and what not...

"If you're still busy, I can come back later." He'd thought she had finished by now, but apparently not. The talk could wait if she needed more time, though it was important they did talk....

"Nn, it's not much, really! I just got here; it's not like I have a house worth of things. I can finish up later."

The room did look plain -- maybe barren, if he bothered to peek past her for a bit. Though there was that ominous little bear killer taser sitting on her desk...

[melodyoflogic]

And there was an anesthetic gun hidden away in Ayumu's room. They all had their own weaponry tucked away somewhere.

"I was wondering if we could talk. We haven't had much time to talk alone since you arrived." Which should be hint enough to Hiyono that there was something more than casual discussion he had in mind. He had questions to ask... and information to passs on.

At this point, attempting to keep her uninvolved was both impossible and foolish.

Clear as day, given the situation.

"Alright, come on in." She steps aside to give him room, settling onto the bed and stretching out. This is no joking matter; she'll hold off on her usual cutesy tirades for now.

Though she has a feeling she already knows where this talk is going to lead.

Ayumu comes in, closing the door behind him and locking it for good measure. He'd rather not have anyone eavesdropping on this, if he could help it, if only for some of the questions he felt necessary to ask.

"First of all... what's the last thing you remember? You remember hearing about Hizumi, right?" It would help determine what he told and asked her from then on out. It was a question that needed to be asked, but that he'd assumed the answer to before.

She had to contemplate that for a moment, wrack her head to make sure she hadn't forgotten. That was at the hospital, wasn't it...? "It's hard to forget, though it slips past me a bit more often than I'd like. You told me about him, and the elder brother he lost, Mizushiro Yaiba."

With the whole Shadow commotion still jarring her here and there, that moment's pause was necessary to recollect herself, and remember who she was at that point.
