Altair-san. Bakura-san.

...You both have my thanks. I would have preferred to say as much in person, but it seems I was not able to before the...transition back h-

[There is a long pause there as she realizes she almost said home. Stony silence follows for a moment or more]

Please, excuse me.

[And abruptly, too abruptly, the feed ends.]

Still...

...You have my thanks.

[xangel_of_rainx]

...I would welcome your presence, Bakura-san.

[xangel_of_rainx]

I will be there momentarily.

[xangel_of_rainx]

[A short time later there's a polite knock on his door, Konan waiting patiently to be admitted.]

[xangel_of_rainx]

[Like a hawk, the kunoichi watched him for a moment, his stuff movements and the tattered state of his coat. She said nothing about it for the moment though, moving towards the couch. The strange word caught her attention, causing her to arch a brow]

Coffee...?

[xangel_of_rainx]

No...I will have what you have.

[Easier that way, and easier on Bakura himself. She can't deny that she's curious about the drink.]

[xangel_of_rainx]

[Their fingers brushed as the mug was passed into her hands and she stared at the murky liquid for a moment in a rather dubious manner. It was only a pause though, before she brought it closer, inhaling gently.]

It...smells good.

[Strong, slightly bitter, but at the same time good.]

[xangel_of_rainx]

[She took a tentative sip, eyes closing as she mulled over the strong flavor. Bitter, yes, but not...bad, necessarily. Different.]

Hotter than tea...but...it is not unpleasant.
