23: To My Dearest Illusionist

[donmillefiore]

I am back here just in time, as I've promised. Buon Compleanno, Mukuro-kun. I know you are used to hearing 'happy birthday' but still, I really mean it. I hope you will really love my special gift for you.

[OOC: To Chrome-mun; I am very busy today so I will post that open log when I am home this evening. (Uploading this from my mobile phone.) If

You kept me waiting long enough.

[mukurou69]

That does not explain what you used in your bargain with them. Do I have to personally shake the answer out of you?

[donmillefiore]

My, I told you the truth and you still doubt that I hide something? Come on, sweetheart, it's just that and the drug.

[mukurou69]

That only explains the what, not the why.

[donmillefiore]

Hmm...I thought you already know. Vindice is not a non-profit organization. They have their own interests. If I sell them decent information and technology, releasing a prisoner is not too difficult a deal.

[mukurou69]

If it were that easy, the Vongola could have easily bought my freedom the same way and held that debt over me.

[donmillefiore]

The Vongola doesn't have certain information I have: information from parallel worlds.

[mukurou69]

... [He's still not really satisfied but...]

[donmillefiore]

...Actually, I also change a bit of the contract term.

[mukurou69]

Which part?

[donmillefiore]

You are not under surveillance for ill will to the Vongola but tied to the happiness of your husband instead. Since your presence alone can make me happy, I don't think that's really a problem, is it?

[mukurou69]

...I suppose.

[donmillefiore]

...You don't look happy to finally be free.

[mukurou69]

There is little enjoyment to be had in breaking the law when there are none to chase you down.

[donmillefiore]

Well, if you prefer it that way, I will tear the contract now.

[mukurou69]

I don't want to return to prison either.
