Kirika's gone home, it seems.

I do hope it's not too horrible. she didn't speak of it much. Though I have a sinking feeling that it would be nicer to have her here.

[Yes. No. Maybe. Even though she had nothing to fear from him, a knot was still managing to form in her stomach just thinking of why he would want to see her.]

It's alright if you don't... I just...

It would be nice.

[He really just wants to make sure you're okay. Again. Fretting boyfriend is fretting.]

[It would be easy to deny him. To just say no.

But she didn't really want to. Not if it meant not seeing him again, without knowing when that chance would come again.]

[If it's you...] I don't mind

Alright. Give me a few minutes.

[Kid wasn't even sure why he felt this urgent need. Even though it had been around a week or so, this new knowledge--whatever it may be, true or not--just made him feel uneasy. He just knew he had to make sure she was alright, again.

...and maybe offer another haircut, just if she needed one-- but that thought could wait.

He was already sporting new spring clothing, symmetrical outfits picked by Liz (thank god), and he popped on Beelzebub and zipped on to Horton, hurrying up the stairs to her apartment. From there, he knocked a few times.]

... I guess that rules out the possibility of her going out without telling anyway, huh? Then again, she wasn't much of the type to leave home in the first place.

Akira's gone home too. I don't know about Kirika, but... I've got no problem with hoping like that.

That's creepy.

I don't think I've ever said that much about home before, and it's nuts that they would have pictures of us in gun form.

You know that's impossible, right? I've had this stupid chip inside of me preventing that from happening!

[asymmetriphobic]

Unfortunately, yeah. I noticed her frequency was missing this afternoon.

Akira? A friend of yours, Liz?

[Shibusen Lock | 30% Hackable]

They're pictures from Shibusen. However they're getting their knowledge, they're either going into our thoughts or they're watching us from home.

Watching us is a more logical way of explaining their confusion. The page was riddled with hypotheses and question marks. Their stalking is absolutely unbelievable.

[spectrophobic]

I wonder how that works, anyway. Like disconnecting a line when your phone bill doesn't get paid off?

Yeah. You could say that. We talked a few times; he didn't seem like such a bad guy.

[Shibusen Lock | 30% Hackable]

[Shudder] Ugh... I don't think that I like either possibility.

M-maybe we should try to ask the guys who found the binder about it, before we start jumping to any more conclusions. They could have found some kind of clue when they picked this up. Wh-... [Ahem] What do you think, Kid?

[7th_warrant]

... She's gone, then.

[asymmetriphobic]

She is... The house feels even quieter without her; I hadn't thought that was possible.

[7th_warrant]

... Hmph.

[Shibusen Lock]

[loyal_inferno]

Kirika is...[There's a pause then a sigh.] I see.

Somehow I don't mind being left out of that...

[Shibusen Lock]

[asymmetriphobic]

Yeah...

I doubted you would. It's probably a good thing.
