[If you think Youji looks out of place sitting in a field of grass, you're right. As he turns on his Dreamberry, he can be heard muttering things about grass stains and his gratitude that his expensive Armani slacks are not here if one listens carefully.

Slightly easier to perceive is the brief look of surprise on his face, as he sees the date. He shakes his head and gives the camera a lightly wry smile.]

Does anyone ever get tired of hearing 'I've been asleep for a week, what did I miss?' Permit me to shake things up a bit. Last I knew, it was February, and I was in my apartment. Now it's June, and I'm in the middle of the field.

I've lost nights before, but this is pushing it just a bit.

[He smiles genially.]

A lesser man would probably give up drinking at this turn of events, but thankfully, I'm not that fragile.

[Private to Weiss]

I don't expect explanations, but something cold and stiff would be appreciated. And nothing work related is meant by that.

Definitely less so for them, then.

[Sena being dead and all, and Aya-chan would probably never see her brother again...

Oh, well. Devil-may-care smile is firmly in place.]

The shop's less cramped when it's just the four of us, anyway.

[1blackcat.livejournal.com]

Yeah. I'm sorry-- you're right. I just.

[Omi manages to push out an awkward smile.]

It is that... In any case, we're still living at Zephry Pointe. Aya-kun has a little alcohol here, but you'll have to ask him about having any of it.

Probably should get something on the way back. Fine wine may age well, but I doubt Aya's taste in it has followed suit.

[What was that saying about gift horses, Youji?]

Yeah. That would probably be best.

[Youji cares not for your silly sayings.]

Anything I should be warned of, before approaching the lion's den?

[1blackcat.livejournal.com]

Mmh... [averted eyes go here.]

A lot of things have happened with the man named Muraki. Avoiding him would be best.

[He nods. He's spoken to Aya, but endeavors to keep his voice level.]

No great loss. Hopefully he'll disappear one of these days.

[1blackcat.livejournal.com]

...Yeah. Hopefully.

[That's all he's saying on that.]

See you soon.
