[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.

Mm. I like it better when the people I kill stay dead.

Exactly how did all of this go down? Start from when I left, as you put it, and don't leave anything out. How'd the police get him? Don't try to tell me you, Omi, and Ken weren't involved at all--I know you too well to believe that.

Ken wasn't here at the time. By the time Omi and I found out that it was Muraki he was on the run. He came to the flower shop to return memories he'd stolen from Omi when he'd kidnapped him.

That slowed us down which is how the police got to him.

So they can catch him, but they can't keep him.

You do realize, it's idiocy like this that even necessitates a Weiss.

And the fact that we know that we are murdering is why Weiss is a secret and not revealed to the population here. If the necessity was right, why would we hide it?

[He closes his eyes a moment. Almost like he's recalling an old memory.] There will always be a need for those who are willing to do what is frowned upon because no one else will.

For your next trick, can you remind me why I have to breathe every few minutes or so?

Because you would prefer I not give you mouth to mouth to revive you.

CPR tends to involve vomit.

It would hurt you more than it would hurt me.

Yet we'd never forget the blow to your pride to have male lips touch yours.

Yet I would at least have the solace of a woman's lips to wash the memory away.

You, on the other hand...

Have been single for over eight years and content to remain that way.

I'd rephrase that to sound more depressing or derogatory to you but I don't think that's possible, Aya.

Taking all the fun out of my life.

You're welcome.
