*The look he gives her might be familiar to her on another face: an older one, admittedly with fewer bruises right now. It's so old-fashioned it could be carbon-dated. Right now, it seems, he's on the defensive.*

Almost makes her wanna pinch his cheeks, now that he's only got two normal hands! But she doesn't, for the safety of everyone in a 5-mile radius.

She ALMOST laughs! "So if you got the result you wanted, why are you standing around here questioning your course of action? Wouldn't that generally mean you aren't satisfied?" She scrunches her nose a little. "Did we get a handful of sour grapes? Poor baby!"

Katchoo does the UNTHINKABLE. She reaches out and tousles his hair! "Figurative term, kiddo. So what were you brawling over?"

*Ahhh!

His hands snap up and grab for her intrusive ones, black curls all awry*

Don't do that! You dare! I -

"Oh, I dare, all right!" she snickers, interrupting him and slapping right back at his hands before withdrawing her own to clasp behind her back. "Now answer my question."

*He is growing pink in those sallow cheeks with anger. Not all of that blood's quite so yellow if it can do that...*

Answer mine first. Who are you? What's your name?
