Never fails ... just when I start gettin' bored, things here pick up. Go all ... weird.

[He grins and turns the camera down towards the street. Green, plant-like creatures are shuffling around, vaguely human shaped. Occasionally they groan, lurching herea nd there like parodies of Frankenstein.]

killin' these things is the most fun I've had in ages.

We need to find [splatter] you something to do, then.

...We haven't heisted in [squelch] in some time, have we?

[cioara_bata]

No, on account'a your new set of scruples. [he pauses, then-] missed one!

[deadly_garden]

What's that [shink] supposed to mean?

[cioara_bata]

Means I don't heist as much anymore, due t'you not likin' me liftin pretty things off humans. We're in the ningenkai more'n the makai, so... lack of opportunity. [He manages to shrug while flying. Its an art!]

Figure we got plenty'a time once you graduate or... whate'er its called with education 'n such.

[deadly_garden]

...I'm starting to think that we should probably move back then. I can [oh shi--! slash] commute between the two worlds.

[cioara_bata]

Aw .. .'m I not doin' a good job of blendin in? [Considering he asks while floating on his back above a carnage of plant-zombies ...]

[deadly_garden]

[He can't help it, he laughs loudly at that, managing to catch a couple of the zombies] No, no Kuro-ai, I'm afraid not. Perhaps if we were in some areas of America, but not here.

...It was more fun back in the Makai as well.

[cioara_bata]

Damn, and here I was tryin so hard ... [He grins crookedly. quieter-]

You seemed to like it better there anyway.

[deadly_garden]

It was an admirable effort, I assure you.

It... it did feel more like home than it has in the past. Perhaps because I had you again. I just... do not wish to leave Kaasan.

[cioara_bata]

One'a these days you're gonna have to tell her about me. 'least, I can dress human-like and you can tell her that way. Clear your conscience, ey?

[deadly_garden]

[He's quiet a long moment, absently flicking his whip at a passing zombie that was apparently too stupid to realize he was there]

I don't know if she needs to know about any of this. There's safety in ignorance, sometimes.

[cioara_bata]

... 's your call.

[deadly_garden]

...I don't know, Kuro. Truly, I don't know.

[cioara_bata]

Yeah y'do.

[deadly_garden]

[Forget the slow method, suddenly the nearby grass grows to ridiculous lengths, wraps around the cultivated humans and turns them into julienned zombies]

Then tell me, because I don't. [No hint of malice or venom in his voice]

[cioara_bata]

Can't do that, luv. This is somethin' you have to figure out for yerself. Be honest about. Might take awhile, but it'll clear up. [He watches the grass in amusement, then floats down to hang in front of Kurama, upside-down and lightly smiling]

Do we have t'live with that smelly goat man?
