Ding dong, school's out!

Well, well, well, seems like Bazookahuc is exactly the way I left it! I think I see some new faces, but I see some familiar ones, too. Then there are faces that I don't remember that well, as well as those who I THINK I remember, but it's that kinda feeling like you saw that person in a dream before ever meeting them, and it does your head in for

Hey--! You're back!

[cheerful_nanami]

Wh-wha?! What're you doing here??

[amateur_agent]

What do you mean, "what are you doing here"?!? I live here, genius!!!!!

[cheerful_nanami]

You were MIA for a year and didn't even reply to my letters - you may as well have been DEAD. And all I get from you now is a "you're back"??!

[amateur_agent]

Letters? Nanami, I was off investigating a case! When mystery calls, you have to heed it--you can't take time to hang laundry and stuff!!

You wrote me letters??

[cheerful_nanami]

Yeah, yeah, I get it, you prefer CRIMINALS! *turns her back*

I also left you a personal note before I went, but I guess there's no point now, is there? Honestly, you're hopeless!

[amateur_agent]

Hey! It was a murder case, you know! And that's more than I've told anyone else! *reaches to grab her arm but hesitates* I haven't given that information out to anyone yet.

What??? Where?? When???? Why don't I know about this??

[cheerful_nanami]

OH, I feel so special! If I wanted to hang out with people who carelessly leave me behind, I'd do it with Riou!

Because you were gone, DUH! Some maid probably took it on her cleaning rounds. But I said it doesn't matter now, since I wrote it in mind with probably never seeing you again.

[amateur_agent]

C-careless?? I--Nanami, it was an emergency! It just came up out of nowhere! What am I supposed to do!

And besides, I'm here, and you're here, and we're both here at the same time, so what does it matter now? There's no use getting frustrated over something that you can't go back and fix.

I specifically ask that no one clean my cell while I'm out because I don't want people poking around--but I heard the smaller Viki was in there, so I don't know if she moved things...

[cheerful_nanami]

Umm... here's an idea, YOU TELL ME. Even if it's just that! Honestly, if I live to be 100, I'll never figure out what your priorities are! But I guess you like being all mysterious and stuff, huh? Well, be mysterious all you want, mister, 'cause I'm not gonna be staying here for good anyway!

I don't know why you didn't see it, geez! Just leave it be already. It's not important now...

[amateur_agent]

All right, all right! I'll leave you a note or something next time a case comes up!!!! Just... just don't leave again anytime soon. >_>

If it's missing, it's a mystery! And if it's a mystery, I'm on it! And the best part is that it's close to home!

[cheerful_nanami]

Well, I didn't finish in Greenhill yet! I just... came for a little visit.

Is that supposed to be some kinda play on words? >>;

[amateur_agent]

We've got a bunch of new people showing up again! Wouldn't you rather stick around to get to know them? You might even see people you know.

Huh? No; I am a detective, so of course I'll be all over a mystery!!!

[cheerful_nanami]

Oh, what's the point if they'll just go away again, right? I'm career-driven now, Kidd, there's no room for small chat! ... But it is kinda nice to see old friends again. You should stick around, too.

Well if you find it, you should probably just burn it. I'll write you a new one before I go ... maybe!

[amateur_agent]

Let's make a deal. I'll stick around if you stick around?

Burn it? Why would I do that? o_O You wrote it!

[cheerful_nanami]

Temporarily. *holds out her pinky*

Why not? It could be something symbolic! Like leaving the past behind us!
