[lifes_expensive]

[Here, have a "new" arrival. Her scarred visage may or may not look familiar to you, but boy does she look pissed.]

This again? I thought I was done with- [She makes a motion to encompass, well, all of the Gardens.] -this ridiculous place. What possible reason could warrent me coming back?

[A sigh.]

[Then, as an after thought:]

Are Kiriko and my house still here?

Comments

[jemerite]

Hello, Black Jack.

[She considers it for a moment, but...]

I missed you.

[lifes_expensive]

Hello again.

Missed me? I'm flattered.

[Her voice has only the barest edge of sarcasm in it, as if she really can't bring herself to go all the way.]

[jemerite]

I did.

[Zinc doesn't rise to that edge, just states herself plainly.]

Did you enjoy it, going home?

[lifes_expensive]

Yes, I got to see my daughter. She's doing well.

[She assumes that the same is true for the other Pinoko, although she has no way of telling.]

At least I know she'll be able to survive on her own for a while.

[mistressurd]

Ah, so it seems the queen has brought someone back. I guess if she like you enough you can't stay away forever.

[lifes_expensive]

[Oh goody, the Queen likes her. Yay. She is so thrilled. Except not really.]

I would prefer if she left well enough alone.

[mistressurd]

Maybe if you piss her off enough she'll kick you out.

[lifes_expensive]

It would be nice if it was that easy, wouldn't it.

How long have you been stuck here?

[golden_gaytime]

Excuse me, but... do you mean Doctor Kiriko? [ Just being certain! ]

[lifes_expensive]

Yeah. That one.

[golden_gaytime]

Oh! I met her once. She was kind and helped me out with some perfume. [ Mugi hums in thought. ] That was some months ago and, come to think of it, I haven't seen or heard from her since that day.

[lifes_expensive]

["Kind"? "Helpful"? That can't be the same woman. Nope.]

You must have caught her on a good day.

[Still, that means...]

I assume she's returned home then. [That lucky little--]

[gun_cata]

It happens, sometimes. People being brought back.

[ Yeah, Larry can understand being a little cranky. ]

[lifes_expensive]

It's thoroughly obnoxious. [She huffs.] I don't understand her infatuation with kidnapping people.

[gun_cata]

Well for one thing, she's probably a little nuts, and probably really immature - that much power makes it hard to get someone to seriously discipline her.

[lifes_expensive]

"A little nuts" is an understatement. And no one should have that much power.

[But complaining isn't going to get her anywhere, unfortunately.]

Has anything changed while I was gone?

[voice]

[undefines]

Your house? I blew it up.

[...She didn't actually, but she's bored. Actually, she's bored enough that her delivery might be too deadpan to be believable.]

Re: [voice]

[lifes_expensive]

...excuse me, you did what?

[It's not that it matters in the long run, but why would you even. What did that poor house ever do to you.]

[undefines]

Well, I mean, I was bored, and it's not like anyone was living in it, so...

[ritsu_kouyou]

Welcome back, Doctor. Kiriko is not here any longer, nor do I believe your house survived the fairy infestation.

Should you need a place to stay, I have ample room in the mansion.

[She still feels like she owes Black Jack.]

[lifes_expensive]

[Fairies. You know what, she's not even going to ask....]

Thank you, I appreciate it.

[ritsu_kouyou]

Shall I have a room made up for you?

[unbrkableteen]

Um...excuse me...?

[lifes_expensive]

[You're a new face.]

Yes?

[unbrkableteen]

[Don't stare at the scar, don't stare at the scar, don't stare at the scar...]

You said that you were brought back....so you were sent home?
