It was easy enough to recognize the woman from when he had gotten his stitches removed... but spending part of his teen years living with Mitsuru Kirijo had trained him to recognize a woman on the warpath, and he stepped aside in-case she didn't want to stop.
"You look like hell."

"Thank you," she spat. "Whatever would I do without you, besides roam about the city in peace?"

"You might want to think of putting some pants on before roaming the city in peace. And maybe a coffee."

Lili didn't bother arguing the point about pants, seeing as it was true. But there hadn't been any time, she had to get out of there immediately. He should be grateful that she's wearing anything on her feet at all.

... And why the hell did the Casualty Communal have to be so far away?
Whatever.
Back straight, head forward, hat snug, she just began her march back 'home'.

She mistook Naoto for Minato for just a moment, and opened her mouth to scream, but luckily, realized her mistake before the words came out. Still, she was about to speak anyway, so she might as well.
"Excuse me! You're Minato's partner, right?"

"... That is correct."
Why did she have a feeling this wasn't going to end well?

"When you see him. You tell him that Lili said she faked it, that time on the beach. The first time, not the second time. That was...no, don't say any of that," Lili corrected herself, shaking her head, and crossing her arms. She wasn't wearing any sleeves, and the light drizzle had started, dripping tiny beads of water all over her. "What you need to tell him is that I hate him. The next time I see him I'm going to saute his genitals. And feed them to him, after. Tell him that."

But when a girl wearing a nightgown and slippers was caught by his eyes, he stopped and was brought to reality. "Aha?" he knew that girl wearing a nightgown and slippers.

That was obviously a lie, what with the goosebumps all over her body, and the shivering.

(Possibly, it was the smell of smoke coming from the nearby Communal, but Watson had not found the source.)
It was past midnight when he finally decided that he was going to run himself weary if he did not get some rest, even if rest was difficult in coming. And so that dreary night found one old man walking along the darkened streets in an attempt to head back to Death City, where hopefully Holmes would have left some tea, and Nataku would have remembered to keep that magical heater on.

"Dr. Watson? What are you doing out so late?" she asked, despite looking ridiculous saying so in her condition. Would she freeze to death if she just fell asleep here, she wondered?

"I had something of a late business to take care of," he said, though the statement was mildly inaccurate. "Might I ask you the same thing? Are you all right? It's rather cold out tonight," Watson added, without openly asking why she was here, underdressed, and apparently under the influence of alcohol.

"It's just...boy trouble, sir," Lili answered, waiting until she could get her jaw to told still. "I had to get out of there, it was driving me crazy."

So she was still very much awake and moving around outside even at such a late hour. She didn't immediately recognize Lili right away, having only spoken to the other girl a handful of times over the network, and because there was just too much distance between them to make out her face properly. But she was hardly going to just leave whoever it was to wander the streets dressed like that. Even if she didn't meet with an unsavoury individuals, she'd probably catch her death of cold.
"Miss, wait." She called out.

Isn't that...?
Still, she showed no signs of stopping, so Aqua picked up her pace, trying to close the distance between them faster. When she was close enough, Aqua reached out for Lili's shoulder, not only to get her attention but...also to pull the other girl back so she couldn't kick that mailbox.
"Lili, stop." She didn't raise her voice (she hardly ever did), but there was nothing in it that said it was a suggestion.
Worried or not, she was still a member of the Watch, and destruction of public property wasn't something she was supposed to allow. Besides which, she suspected that the kick might hurt Lili's foot more than the mailbox.

"Do not touch me," Lili said, pointing at Aqua's face, her tone harsh.
