[Why the hell would I want someone like that finding out where I live? she wants to snap, but that's the reason he decided such a boneheaded move was necessary. she wants to scream, because it's all so stupid and so fucking relateable.

the silence drags out even longer this time, finally broken by a deep sigh.]

You could have just fucking asked.

[excitababble]

[ She wouldn't. No one would. He doesn't think Suzuya will hunt him down though... probably. He's obsessed with Kangmo's hearing implant, but he doesn't seem all that concerned with Kangmo otherwise at least. Not that he's really even hinted that to Hazel. ]

You don't particular like me.

[ That's an assumption, but he feels pretty safe in saying that. ]

Why would you agree to it if I just asked?

[deadtective]

I don't particularly like anyone. [a lie, but she's suitably irritated already that it actually carries rather well.]

...and it doesn't matter how I feel about you anyway. You don't leave people who need help.

[excitababble]

There are plenty of people that would.

[ He knows a few personally. ]

[deadtective]

Well, they're assholes. [blunt, but true. whatever, THIS ISN'T ABOUT HER FEELINGS] So when are you showing up?

[excitababble]

[ This conversation feels so casual considering how it started, high tension, unsteady emotions. Well, he's still pretty tensed up, but that's because he's still on the street not too many blocks from the house he shares with a murderer... ]

Whenever you tell me the address.

[deadtective]

Heropa 11. The door's already open, so don't bother knocking.

[it's this casual because of Hazel's irrepressible compassion...and the fact she's already decided she's punching him in the fact the minute he steps through the door. it's amazing what the promise of violence does for chilling you out.]

[excitababble]

[ This would not be the first time someone has done that, actually. Oddly enough? The times prior weren't actually deserved. ]

Not that far.

[ He was hoping for a little further, but it does mean he gets to get off the streets and hidden away faster at least. ]

I'll be there soon.
