Yuu made one more sweep of the surrounding area outside the impersonal concrete and glass building, making sure no one was staying late to finish something up. Once his paranoia was satisfied he walked back to the bus stop where Aya was sitting with the bag full of their supplies

Aya-chan hefts the bag on to her shoulder. "Perfect."

She smiles a wicked smile. "I'll disable the cameras."

[x_onceremoved_x]

"Heh, my cousin is MacGuyver. Mind if I watch you work? This would be a valuable skill to pick up, after all," he says as they approach the building. When they reach the ally behind the building he picks up another bag he'd stashed behind a trashcan earlier in the day.

Considering that disabling the cameras requires a piece of technology she picked up via the Nexus...?

"Don't you think I'm doing enough to prove your parents are right about my being a bad influence?"

[x_onceremoved_x]

"...Not yet?" He replies hopefully. "Okay, okay, I won't watch you do it. But that just means I'll be researching how to do it myself over the internet later." He hopes that the idea of him going and doing something about it anyway will get her to cave and let him watch.

"Ha!" He throws his arms around her, being careful not to send any pudding flying with the hug. "Have I told you that you're brilliant? Because you are. Oh, man, ah..." He surveys the room before spotting a book case full of archived and seldom touched financial journals. He gestures at it.

"That should do nicely, I think. Want me to take up pudding duty for the moment since you should know how to work the camera much better than I could." He peers at the camera enviously. He wasn't sure what quality the pictures it took were, but he wouldn't mind finding out.

"Only if you don't want to watch." The camera isn't Nexus technology, and knowing how to plant cameras could be useful.

Aya explains what she is doing while she works. She tells him about the spy shop where she bought the camera. When she is finished she steps back.

"Can you see it? Is it well hidden enough?"

[x_onceremoved_x]

He shakes his head, laughing softly, and takes not of just how she's going about everything. "I want to know how you find all this stuff."

He squints and peers before shaking his head once more. "I can't. Perfect."

Yuu rubs his hands together in miscievous glee before walking back to the area with the balloons.

[dream_departed]

"I'll give you the address of the spy shop where I bought the camera later.

"We have to hurry with the balloons. No telling when the janitor is coming back."

After the floor is covered with a number brightly colored balloons, Aya-chan takes a critical look at the desk.

"It will be funnier if we glue everything perfectly in place on the desk before we glue it to the ceiling."

Once outside, Shinji says his good byes and Yuu makes sure to thank him again before the man heads off to catch the subway. Once he's on his way Yuu drapes an arm across Aya-chan's shoulders.

"And thank you. I haven't had this much fun in ages."

[dream_departed]

Aya affectionately bumps her head against Yuu's head.

"Me either. We make an awesome team."

She cannot help but wonder what Yuu be like let loose on the Nexus.

[x_onceremoved_x]

"That we do~" he sing-songed, grinning as he walked with her to their bus stop.

At the bus stop, Aya-chan gives Yuu a hug.

"I'll e-mail you the Web site that the camera will send the live feed to."

She smiles at him lovingly. It's good to have family again. Aya-chan gets ready to tell Yuu just how much he means to her when her buss pulls up.

She boards the bus, turning briefly to wave good bye to him.
