~♥TWENTY-NINE♥~

[Masaomi has been dreadfully ill since, well... since about Nagisa's party and going to look for a starfish the night before. Since then, well... he passed out there, barely made it home, and had been nursed ever since. He was slightly delirious though all this, and he relied on Saki to get him through things while working on autopilot. He wasn't able to really move much himself until about the 29th or so. After that you might have seen him going in and out of the kitchen. But had he not seen Saki as much somehow...?

This pattern lasts until he wakes up about three PM on the 3rd. He's finally feeling better, and is able to pick up the journal, flip through things, and then go check on Saki and... she's not there. He searches the apartment, is it just him or is it more empty. Finally, he goes to make a filtered message to her to see if she's around...

And. She's not. The filter breaks.

She's gone.

Gone.

He got back his cell phone a while ago - he hasn't opened it, really, but after Fray gave it back to him the only thing he used it for was that thing with the texts and "Tanaka Taro." But. He flips it open to see Saki's picture in there. His grip tightens. They never even talked and she's gone.. completely gone. He begins to shake. The rage lasts a while and he tries to calm down enough to make a little post saying she's gone. and finally... two hours later, he thinks he is]


[Voice]

Everyone. Ah, I - I... [...No, he can't do it. He can't be calm]

Son of bitch! No! [And then he throws the cell phone clean across the room. It hits the wall with a loud sound - it's not broke, not quite, but the battery pops out of the back and the screen cracks. But who cares. Now, now? His voice is pained beyond anything people have heard in Luceti since about when Mikado was sent home, but this pain is different - Mikado's was cold fury, this one is erratic fury and sorrow and... well yeah]

Why now?! [Voice break] Why- dammit, [He grits his teeth] Dammit!

[She walks over to her parka to slip it back on.]

It's not too far from here.

I didn't know that you and Trafalgar were that close.

[He's not as scary as he seems.]

Sumire. She stayed with us while he was on the missions last month.

[Walking, walking...]

It's amazing how much cats can grow in just a month. They're almost like bearded cats, but... without the beard.

A smaller, browner cousin to the urban panther?

You don't have any of these animals in your world, do you.

They're... black cats, a little bigger than normal. Sometimes they're called pumas? They travel in packs in Ba Sing Se.

You never have to deal with stray [what are their words...] cats or dogs in Earth cities?

[Meter? Give her a moment to convert that...]

Oh - no. Urban pumas are smaller. They're just... maybe about two times the size of a house cat?

I guess so. [She's not really seen many dogs...]

[They must make nice food for the cats.

...but people tend to get disturbed when she makes observations like that.]


We're almost there now.

It's this way.

[Making the necessary turn now, the house is still about five minutes away, and Katara seems to have temporarily run out of inane topics.]
