Watanuki showed up shortly after that. Unlike many others, he had chosen not to dress up. By now he was getting used to wearing his school uniform all the time, and it had just enough room in the front for Mugetsu to sit comfortably, hidden away between his shirt and stomach. Not that most people knew that, of course. Mugetsu was a spirit, and only a few people here could even see him.

As he walked up he saw a boy standing off to the side, not looking at anyone. Since he was by himself, Watanuki figured that this was Makubex. He walked up and said, "Hi, are you the person I'm supposed to meet?"

[virtualunknown]

Makubex looked up as he was addressed. "Hm? Oh!" He smiled. "You must be Watanuki-kun."

[supraiz_ghosts]

Watanuki nodded. "Yeah, that's me. It's nice to meet you in person," he said, bowing politely.

Then he looked up at the door and said, "Is Nozomu already in there?"

[virtualunknown]

Makubex bowed in return. "Nice to meet you as well." He paused for a moment, thinking. "I haven't seen him yet, although there are some people wearing masks."

[supraiz_ghosts]

Watanuki sighed. "Of course. If he's in there, though, we have to find him. Any little thing gone wrong could make him rant about 'despair' and to kill himself again."

[virtualunknown]

"Of course. And with so many people around, that would be quite a scene." Makubex glanced around. "Mm... Should we go in and look?"

[supraiz_ghosts]

That sounded like a good idea, so Watanuki nodded. "Alright," he said, "Let's head in, then."

[virtualunknown]

Makubex led the way. And... my, that was a lot of people inside. "He could be anywhere..."

[supraiz_ghosts]

"Just look for the guy yelling about despair," Watanuki said, "He's pretty difficult to miss."

[virtualunknown]

Makubex chuckled. "Unless he truly is enjoying this party. Might make things a bit difficult."

[supraiz_ghosts]

Somehow Watanuki had a feeling that Nozomu wouldn't be enjoying the party, but he didn't say that out loud. Instead he said, "We'll find him, I'm sure."

[virtualunknown]

Makubex felt the same, but it was still a possibility, albeit a very minor one. "Any idea what he'd be dressed as?"

[supraiz_ghosts]

Watanuki shook his head. "Not a clue. I don't think he's the type to dress up, though."

[virtualunknown]

"Well... should we split up, then?"

[supraiz_ghosts]

Watanuki thought about that for a moment, and then he nodded. "Yeah," he said, "That sounds best. Shall we meet back here in an hour?"

[virtualunknown]

Makubex nodded. "That sounds good. Good luck." With that, he started off skirting the crowd, keeping his eyes pealed for any sign of the odd man.
