[ closed to Miranda ]

[ If there were clouds in the sky...

No, if there was a lightbulb fizzling out of existence...

No, no. not that. This needed more then some dank, dark, moody development. No, what this needed was melodramatic sobbing, the renting of hair, the astringent vowing of eternal damnation, for there was naught like a Bak scorned!

But there was none of these things as he walked into the apartment that seemed large by default now that he was no longer in attendance. He had to face his demons and there was a singular truth mixed in with the melancholy. He as going to miss that old man. But that was no excuse for neglecting the one companion he had left.

He had duty. He had responsibility and above all, he had compassion. Therefore, with squared off shoulders, he marched into that apartment and called out for her. Yep. her ]

Miranda?

[ he paused, listening for signs of life. She had to still be around her somewhere, right? ]

[ open action ]

Bak had no intentions of replacing Komui or Fou or anyone else for that matter. But his desolate wanderings had taken him by the pet shop on a whim. To pick up some random chew toy for Lee, Miranda's vulpix. Anything to keep her from crying. If he could!

Except...

There was a dog staring at him, watching his every move as he shuffled through the shop. It was unnerving and not just because it reminded him of Komui. N o p e. It's that look in his eye. Like Bak was a favorite chew toy. And Bak was threw with being tossed around!

So, if you happen to wander into the shop this afternoon, never fear the tirade going on inside. Bak's just letting off a little steam and pointing fingers. And for what it's worth, that puppy is taking it pretty damn calmly and only with a few minor wags of his tail. Y e p. Just like Komui. That unrepentant jerk! He was gonna miss you. ]</small>
