Joe

A sparkle illuminated Joe's hopeless eyes.  He took a deep breath, hiding his face behind the thin veil of professionalism.  Without thinking, he found himself cradling the detective's hand.  "Thank you!  But with all due respect, I can't imagine a few police cars stopping him."

[yinsukin]

Sera

Sera's eyes widened.  This girl had so much energy.  "W-wha?" she shrieked, stumbling back a bit.  "I can't do that! I just got here!  How would I even know what I can do?"

[YOLF]

Henry

The detective's crooked eyebrows rose at askew angles at his demonstration of relief, but nonetheless he cleared his throat and retorted, "You might not be wrong. But if it escalates into violence it's already a worst case scenario. That's all you should need to know."

Henry tried to extricate his hand with minimal fuss, but let out a sigh. "Matter of fact is, this still requires looking out for. I'm going to call the central and get things moving, but in the meantime I strongly recommend you keep an eye or two peeled. For yourself and your surroundings."

[yinsukin]

Joe

Joe's body visably tensed at the detective's warning, the sparkle in his eyes fading rapidly.  He looked at his phone and said, "If thats the case, can you please stay with me until I find somewhere else to stay for the next few days?  I think I know somewhere else thats safer and I wouldn't want to contribute to this cities crime problem by using up the department's resources."

Vanguard

"Unfortunately yes." He answered her with no hint of affection or warmth to his words, not even the sort you'd spare to a sickly pet. No matter how much you had to sugarcoat it, there was no need to pretend to care for a tool.


The two were dining under the patio of a fancy restaurant, or rather, he was watching her dine under the patio of a fancy restaurant. She had ordered a ravishing plate of lamb and herbed potatoes along with a red wine. On the other hand, all the warrior took water, and that was only a courtesy for he drank none of it. He seemed to be glaring at the girl with a mixture of annoyance, confusion and tiredness.

"Why are you enjoying yourself so much over a mere piece of meat?" He sighed and played with the straw in his glass, unable to drink or eat anything on the menu. "That dumb look on your face is insufferable."

[Kotomine_Rin]

Blackmore (At Joe's place, in the past)

"Now that's just rude detective. You didn't even give me a chance to defend myself." A snide voice suddenly called out behind the two of them.

All it would take was to turn around in order to find the subject of the day looking down the two of them, lying  against a wall with the widest of smiles. Despite his tone and posture, his grin was anything but relaxed, it was the same sort of smile an alligator can muster up before eating his prey whole.

But he wasn't there, he left, he hadn't been there in the first place, so how the hell did he sneak by everyone's nose just like that!?

Suddenly, his face lightened up, if it didn't look so already, when it turned to the little man he saved a while ago. "Hey Joe, didn't your mama teach you it's bad to talk behind people's back?"

How heartbreaking. For him.

Minion A

Muhahahaha!  My grope and steal plan worked! he thought as he ran his greedy fingers across her hips.  After snatching the things from her purse, he got a good squeeze in on her ass.  It was surprisingly big.  He figured she was one of those top heavy babes with nothing behind.

"Nice ass," he said simply, giving a lazy wave of his hand as he continued to walk away.  A golden glow glimmered in the moonlight, breaking free from the cage of his fingers.  He would eat well tonight.

[Cherry Lover]

Sakura

Sakura's anger grew at his continued groping and the nonchalent comment, fighting with herself over whether to attack him as he walked off. Then, though, she noticed the golden glow and, looking down, she saw that her handbag had been opened.

The bastard stole my money! she thought with a sudden realisation. And he sexually assaulted me just because he thought he could.

With that, she formed several shadow tendrils, launching them at his arms and legs in an effort to bind him in place.

"Give that back, you pervert!" she shouted just after the tendrils reached him, ensuring he would not have any verbal warning of the attack.

Then, in case it failed, she drew one of the combat knives she always carried from underneath her skirt, prepared to use it if he closed the distance on her.

[Umbra of Chaos]

Lucy     

She swirled a glass of water turned wine all fancy like for a moment. "Vanny, you have to appreciate the shallow things in life. Otherwise you just die even more sad than usual."

And then she started scarfing down the rest of her meal.

[yinsukin]

Minion A

"Holy crap!" the guy shouted, turning around, only to have his limbs immobilized by shadow tendrils.  "Ok, ok I get it.  How about you just let my arms and legs go and i'll give you back your money."

[Cherry Lover]

Sakura

Sakura frowned.

"What, so you can go and rob and grope someone else?" she replied. "I don't think so somehow."

With that, she approached him and reached out for the hand with the money, careful not to allow him any means to counter-attack from his bound position.

"Giving me the money back would be a good start, though. If you do that, perhaps you'll be able to convince me not to call the police", she added as she reached for the money in his hand.

[yinsukin]

Minion A

He closed his palms.  "Nope," he said.  "Whats to stop you from just killing me after you take my money?"

[Cherry Lover]

Sakura

Sakura's eyes narrowed in response to his comment.

"What's to stop me killing you and then taking my money?" she responded, idly waving her knife around in a threatening-looking manner.

Of course, Sakura would never actually kill someone in cold blood for a crime as minor as theft, but she had killed people before, even captives, and she certainly had no difficulty with giving off the impression that she would.

[Kotomine_Rin]

Vanguard

Vanguard sighed tiredly. "You make me sick." He looked repulsed by her display, as if the thought of drinking alcohol was no different than to drink poisonous venom to him. He was being honest and blunt, perhaps to a fault, but the fact he was being honest was in a way proof that he had more feelings for Lucy than the average person.

"I have no real organs, this entire body is artificial. Partaking in this would be pointless. In fact, it's irritating. Do you act like this with every man you meet?"

[yinsukin]

Minion A

The man lowered his eyes.  "Cmon, im a street thief.  You think waving your knife around like that is going to threaten me?  Besides, if you wanted to kill me, you would have at least tried to go for a killing blow."

He began wiggling his hands and a pocket knife fell from his sleeve and into his hand.  As he flicked the knife open, it sliced through the shadow binding that hand.  Then, it transformed into a sword, slashing apart the the shadows binding his legs in a single slash.  "To be honest, I thought you were going to kill me, so I played it safe and wanted to wait for a chance to take you off guard.  But I really don't have anything to lose here now do I?"
