005- [phone] TMI.....

[sablebombay]

[Omi has a lot of secrets in his past. And ever since yesterday he's been struggling with the urge to get them off his chest.]

Hi..... Okay, so first off, my name isn't Omi. It's Mamoru Takatori. I was born into a really powerful family of Yakuza.  But I left home when I was little.

Actually I was kidnapped, and my father refused to pay the ransom.

[Wait...did he just say Weiss]

[Oh SHI---]

Omi what the hell are you doing?! [Time to play separate the coworker from the telephone.]

[sablebombay]

[He actually seems surprised to be pulled away so suddenly. Jeez, Ken, the town needs to know about the commies in their midst....]

Me? I was just using the phone! What are you doing?

[Yeah, Lyon's just standing there with one hand leaning up against the wall on the way into the living room. She was going to come in and see what Omi was up to and if he had any ideas for puppy names, but then she overheard all of that. And now she's just... stunned. No idea what to say at all.]

[sablebombay]

[He turns around and gives a look that's somewhere between sad and apologetic. This isn't how he wanted her to find out, but it's still better that she knows. Then hangs up the phone and heads for he stairs.]

[float_like_a]

Omi...

[Her quiet voice cuts through the silence as he brushes past her.]

...was all of that true?

[sablebombay]

......................

Yes. Every word.

[Well,not the communist part, but he doesn't know that right now.]

[heartstar_blues]

Ken's an assassin?

[sablebombay]

Yes, and so am I.

[heartstar_blues]

Ever kill a super hero?

[sablebombay]

Umm, no. We don't actually have those in our world.

And we only target criminals.

[sting_like_a]

This isn't really how I wanted Lyon to find out about your, uh, career choices...

[BRB FACEPALMING FOREVER. She really wanted to have the So My Boyfriend Is An Assassin talk with Lyon at some point, but there was never a good time for it, and now... welp.

...Pause.]

You're a communist too, Omi~?

[sablebombay]

I- I know. I just.... couldn't stop myself. I'm really sorry.

Wait.....

You're a communist too?

[sting_like_a]

It's okay... I'll deal with it somehow~

--Yup! [She claps her hands excitedly. Easy to please, not!mom is.] Ooh, we have something in common~!

[sablebombay]

I never expected that you'd be a communist too. I'm kind of glad I'm not alone.

Ken still doesn't believe me.
