thirty-eight smiles

[ah... it has been a while since he has properly visited the town-- taking a pleasant stroll through the streets, sampling the warm-weather treats, admiring the newest selection of wares in the shop. Meandering along as if he hasn't a care in the world. Eventually, he pauses to watch a group of children playing near the fountain, bringing out the

[ karen, of course, is back in the city. now with a good description of legato, there's no way she'll miss him if he pops up. if he'll appear. a part of her is certain he won't -- he knows she's watching with hawk eyes.

but when she spots the blue hair and the spikes on the shoulder, her eyes widen. astounded he actually appeared. this was too convenient. too easy.

which meant it wasn't going to be.

she flies past the buildings and lowers herself to approach him but keeping a distance as well for now. her cape flutters behind her as she folds her arms across her chest. ]

Legato Bluesummers, isn't it.

[endthem]

[when he glances up, his face is devoid of surprise. It's hard to miss an inhuman presence flying around in the near vicinity, after all. He gives her a pleasant smile]

It is, actually. Good morning.

[advocacies]

[ she doesn't nod, her lips pursed. ]

Nice day, huh?

[endthem]

[as if he doesn't notice her severe expression, he lets his gaze wander appreciatively around to take in the lovely day]

It really is. Much nicer than it was last year at this time.

[advocacies]

I don't think you're an idiot, Legato. You must know why I'm here.

[endthem]

I could guess, but that would be presumptuous of me. Especially toward someone who has yet to even introduce themselves.

[advocacies]

Right. Power Girl.

[endthem]

'Power Girl.' How descriptive. It is a pleasure to meet you.

Now... would you be so kind as to tell me what it is you want?

[advocacies]

Yeah, laugh it up wise guy.

I want to know where you took those people. [ if they... if they were even alive. which they probably weren't but she had to know. ]

[endthem]

Well. That's quite a leap to make.

How exactly did you come to the conclusion that I had anything to do with it?

[advocacies]

You're a telepath who's already hurt people -- friends of mine. Remember a girl with long, black hair? Yukiko. You had her friend stab her last year.

Your little verbal scuffle with Zelman didn't go unheard. It wasn't hard to ask him myself and find out your loyalties now lie with Riful. Who is known for eating people. All those people who "got up and walked away"? Complete crap. You did this to them and you've already tried to mess with Clark.

[endthem]

[...way to be a bro, Zelman. His expression holds as he takes a moment to absorb this little bit of information, and then his thin smile pushes a little bit wider]

Apparently Jilly failed to deliver my message, then.

[advocacies]

[ her expressions remains unchanging. she's not risking jilly's life in this. besides, this wasn't false. ]

You can whine to Zelman about betraying his ex-roommate. I wonder what you did to get under that guy's skin.

[endthem]

I am hardly surprised by it. He is very fickle.

[advocacies]

Now are you going to answer my previous question?

[endthem]

I'm afraid you won't be able to find them.
