Who : Ken Hidaka ( artiglio) and Muraki ( medico_male ) What: Zombie First meeting after Muraki comes back Where : Kokakuro (Oriya's place) When : Early New Years eve
He looked the same as ever as he sat at a table in the private section of his friend's restaurant. Oriya had complained a little about him having a meeting here, but there was no other place for Muraki to talk to the young man who had trusted him once, not until his clinic was completely repaired.
When the door opened, Muraki quickly swallowed the pills Jezebel had told him to take for months to prevent a quick relapse into death and smiled politely at Ken. "As you can see, I'm not attacking you for your brain and I can think very clearly. I am not a zombie, Ken."
Ken was a little startled at this type of greeting. He hadn't really expected Muraki to come right out and say it. Cautiously, he came over, and sat in the seat, glad to have the door at his back.
"You have to admit, it kinda applies to your case Doctor." Ken replied, a bit stiffly. Oh he knew zombie's weren't real, that they were the fodder of legends and awesomely bad monster movies, but resurrection from the dead, wasn't that supposed to not be real either.
He made no attempt to hide the faint pink scar that still lingered around his neck. It would fade more as time passed, of course, but it wasn't a badge of shame at all. Muraki kept an eye on Ken, trying to figure out what sort of things ran through his mind right now.
Muraki sat down again and pointed at the menu, should his former employee want anything to eat or drink. "Usually, people would consider a man who died and came back with all his senses to be a vampire." And in a sense, that much wasn't far from the truth. But Ken didn't know that; at least, he didn't think that Ken had any idea about that.
"That would be stupid, everyone knows vampires sleep during the day, and I think you've posted stuff during then." Ken said, giving Muraki a look over the top of his menu. "Zombie makes much more sense."
He sighed and scrolled through the menu, and finally decided on just having some tea. Booze would just be a bad idea at this point.
