[Action]

[A little less than half of his Brigade opted to try to go home last week. About the same amount are missing due to kidnappings or whatever. Neku is missing from his house. Mikuru has arrived, reminding him was Kyon suggested a while ago, that they aren't his. And what's more... what's more, it's been a long time since he's really

[Chikane thought she deserved a stop to the market. She'd been in the building all damned day and no one had shown up-- so it seemed logical to think no one would show up now.

Except someone did, and her surprise is very obvious as she spots Haruki angsting in the corner. And she...stares. Unblinkingly, for a moment.]

...Good evening.

[closing the door behind her, still staring. WHY THE DAMNED CORNER, CHRIST, CAN YOU BE MORE PATHETIC.]

[Actionnnnnnn!!]

[And he... doesn't reply. Or well, he doesn't reply vocally, instead just off-hand waving at her while not looking up from his photos. You're not a real person, so who cares what you think?]

[...And then she spots the pictures and makes a strange, throaty noise. Her face contorts in something akin to sadness and-- and--
Himeko always looked at pictures, she was always developing them, and taking them and planning them and-- for a moment she practically smell the other half of her again, the sunlight and freshness and cleaniness--]

[...And then she walks over, smiling, and places the bag on a nearby table. She stares down at him and finally asks,]

What's wrong, Haruki?

[ Gokudera, getting sick of Sushi And Milk Sushi And Milk for dinner again, had come to get something to eat, but came across Haruki instead. He was going to make some kind of jackass comment, but he'd have to be a total idiot not to feel that aura around Haruki. He lets out a breath and relaxes his shoulders, figuring that sure, he could be somewhat nice right now. ]

...You're the last person I thought I'd ever see depressed.

[god_is_a_dude]

[...And he doesn't look up there, instead just glaring at this picture like it took his lunch money. It's just really a bad situation. And as such-]

Shut up.

[rossovento]

...Tch. I didn't try to go, either.

I would be been left behind, if it worked.

[ he's trying to make Haruki seem not alone \o_O/ ]

[god_is_a_dude]

Good for you, dumbass.

[He appreciates it... maybe. But he also takes it as "That's your own damned problem, you bum"]

[god_is_a_dude]

[...] Got it.

[2ndunitcaptain]

Here. Now that I can talk again.

[god_is_a_dude]

Good.

[2ndunitcaptain]

Haha, guess that gate really was a trap... it was worth a shot.

[god_is_a_dude]

[...No. No it wasn't. It wasn't at all. But Shinpachi's a historical figure, so maybe it was with him? ...Oh well. He doesn't reply to that because he just - doesn't know how. He grunts to himself]

[probablyacat]

Mii, I'm still here.

[god_is_a_dude]

Right. Good.

[probablyacat]

[... That was pretty abrupt. Hrm.] ... Are you alright?

[god_is_a_dude]

[...] Shut up.
