Justin was drawn by some invisible force, or maybe the mental guiding of the Clown (aware of the presence of someone familiar in the city), or maybe simply that odd sort of instinct that always unerringly directs him eventually to churches. Whatever it was, there is now a guillotine-priest standing silently in the west entryway, studying the interior of the church.

If Gopher had any sort of soul perception at all, he would have been able to sense Justin's clown-infested presence in the church. But alas, he does not have that ability. Unaware of the another person inside the basilica, Gopher takes a sip of tea and continues to stare at the windows.

Being in a church isn't helping Justin calm down, the clown twitching and laughing and tracing patterns on the inside of his skull and it would hurt if he had the thoughts to focus on the pain. But he doesn't, so he keeps his smile and laughter and killing intent bottled down to just a faint smirk, and approaches Gopher, still studying the decorations.

He recognizes none of the figures. This is a church dedicated to a different religion than any he has seen

Judas... you betray the Son of Man with a kiss?

ah. That makes sense.

Odd that a religion based on the suffering of a god would build such temples.

"... Gopher."

In a moment of comical relief, Gopher jumps into the air, clearly startled by the intruder. A loud "Shit!" can be heard directly followed by the sound of a teacup smashing and ow burning hot liquid on my shirt -

...

...

...

He swerves around, his face confronted with so much hate and anger - and then his eyes widen with recognition.

"... you." The tone is accusing.

Goddamn priest.

Justin didn't look tired or sickly either. Somebody got their clown back, it seems.

Chane had been going back and forth from the Frari to the San Marco Basilica, given raw materials from Izaya to be made into food, before passing it back to him. Toris was the only other person she knew who had made the Frari a residence, and she hadn't noticed anyone else in each of her journeys.

So it was indeed a surprise to see someone else in the church when she next returned with packets of flour and sugar.

Ever vigilant, she moved slowly down the aisle towards the figure, stopping a few feet behind. Everyone was a probably enemy until proven otherwise.

IT'S A WOMAN! PFEH! wafflewood October 9 2010, 22:28:05 UTC
Sometime after that crazy psycho priest had left, Gopher resumed his position in the pews. The fright that Justin gave him made Gopher much more attentive to his surroundings. Which means he was actually aware of the footsteps approaching him and not dazed in some fantasy Noah-sama la-la land. He quickly turns around, expecting it to be Justin again -

- wait no, Justin was definitely not a female.

"... hello."

She stopped where she was, taking note of him when he turned around. He appeared a few years younger than her, with raven hair that curled at the end, and a pleasant looking face.

When he greeted her, she nodded back in return. It took her a bit of time to type into her Faciliberry, especially with her other arm holding the 'groceries'.

"Did Izaya sent you here?"

It was one explanation she could come up with at the moment. Perhaps he had some message for her, something that can only be passed on in person rather than the network.

... wait, why is this woman typing in her communicator instead of verbally responding - this is strange - and who's Izaya - who are you lady -

"I'm afraid I don't know who this Izaya is."

He would have been so much nicer, maybe actually introduced himself or even offered to help with the groceries like any good gopher would, had he not been emotionally drained and overflowing with negative emotion that he was keeping an adequate job of bottling up inside him.
