007 - Before Kaito's respawning. (Ew.)

[lafillebleue]

. . . I don't think Kaito came home last night.

You could at least call so I don't wait, Bakaito.

Where are you?

Or did someone else see him?

... Wait, what?

[lafillebleue]

My friend didn't come home last night.

[weaponsparked]

I... spoke with him recently, I think. Said he had a robot problem. Same kid?

[lafillebleue]

. . .

A robot problem?

[Aoko can feel the fine hair pricking at the back of his neck.] What kind of robot problem?

[eldest_hatter]

I'm afraid I haven't. Is he a friend of yours?

[lafillebleue]

Mm-hm. Since we were little. And sometimes he's out late, but he's not usually so irresponsible that he doesn't come home at all.

It's still raining, too.

[eldest_hatter]

I see...that does suspicious. And who knows what could be behind such happenings in this town.

[lafillebleue]

[Aoko's been hearing a little too much about the milkman lately for that remark to be comfortable.]

H-he's probably fine . . . just being stupid. Maybe he did just forget . . .

[supersizedpower]

I didn't see him...but chin up! He's probably just helping people out in the storm!

You know Aoko is staying in your house, yes? o.o

[lafillebleue]

Alfred-san . . .

. . . That's crazy, going out in weather like this!

shoot, musta missed that. but no worries!

[supersizedpower]

Why? I've been out and about, and I'm fine.

Kaito's a good kid, a little rain won't get him all wet!

No worries! Wanted to make sure you knew.

[lafillebleue]

. . .

Rain would definitely get him all wet.

Plus, there's not just rain, there's lightning. You're not supposed to go outside in storms if you can possibly help it!

[bustydefense]

Something happened to Kaito?

[lafillebleue]

He didn't come home last night, and it's storming, so . . .

I guess I'm a little worried.

[bustydefense]

I would be too. Do you know where he went?
