I'd like that.

[Come to think of it, he hadn't really been spending enough time with her. Well, he was more just watching her from afar out of worry, and not legitimately getting to know her. It was nice to be out of the Tower, and back to something a little more...normal, though Hinoto-Ri was anything but. He still couldn't shake some habits, but he fell back into some old routines rather easily.]

It's really great to have you around again.

[helenchanted]

[That catches her off guard and idly the hand holding his tightens a bit. She nods.]

I'm glad you're around too.

I wonder where Jiji is right now...he'll be surprised as what's happening, I bet.

[boxingemperor]

He's probably laying low and staying out of this whole circus thing.

[If they only knew.]

He's missing out on all the excitement.

[helenchanted]

I can't blame him. Or maybe he's out there helping the civilians out in his own, grumpy way.

[She looks ahead of her.]

Can you spot anything yet?

[boxingemperor]

Just more remains and empty cages. I'm surprised I've adjusted to the odor.

[But all of a sudden Akihiko jumps and gasps, his free arm flailing about.]

[helenchanter]

I still haven't...

[And she nearly jumps aback when he does that, looking around worriedly.]

W-what's going on?

[boxingemperor]

[Smack! Akihiko slaps the side of his neck, then brushes the guts of a dead fly off against his pants.]

Sorry, the bugs are getting annoying around here.
