[Kyoumi had made a lot of work for herself]

[one might think that the bodies, in various states of dying or unconsciousness, had taken a lot of work to put there, but they hadn't. Just a crowd of herbivores. Moving them was going to take work.]

[She nudged one idly with her foot, and the man groaned. She hadn't even broken a sweat, though she'd collected a couple small bruises and cuts. And a bullet, a clean shot straight through the meat of her shoulder.]

[she wasn't very concerned, still assessing the damage of the melee on the shop. It would have to be cleaned, very thoroughly, but she could hire a service for that at least]

	[studying the mess in front of him, he raised an idly amused eyebrow, stepping distastefully over bodies. Well, this made his negotiations much simpler. He did enjoy it when his estimations were right on target, as usual] I love what you've done with the place, bella. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	[looks up, unsurprised] It's a work in progress. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	pezzonovante 2010-01-14 12:24 am UTC (link)
	So I see. [cocks his head at her, taking in the bullet wound and clicking his tongue in quiet disapproval] You don't seem to have taken out the trash yet. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[snorts as she crouches down, wiping her tonfa off on the jacket of one of the fallen] Isn't that a man's job? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Only for men that can't hire anyone else to do it. [nudges one of the bodies with his foot, doing a quick tally of dead and dying. The rest, it wouldn't matter where he dumped them] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[smirks] So why don't you take care of this for me. A grand reopening present. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	pezzonovante 2010-01-14 01:11 am UTC (link)
	I suppose I might do a favor for a ladyfriend. [smirks back, completing his calculations about the bodies and striding over to address the more immediate matter. Reaches for her shoulder without offering explanation] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[can guess his intentions without one, but she doesn't move] It was a clean shot. The bullet passed through. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	pezzonovante 2010-01-14 01:28 am UTC (link)
	[makes a small "hn" noise, almost approval, and steps back once he's finished the inspection. Not bad] Unexpectedly careless of you. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	snowlark 2010-01-14 01:33 am UTC (link)
	How would you know what to expect. [scowls, a little. She really doesn't need him rubbing it in her face] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	pezzonovante 2010-01-14 01:51 am UTC (link)
	Perhaps I have the same expectations of all my business associates. [grabs a nearby body and rips the man's shirt, offering it to her as a makeshift bandage] Clean yourself up. I suppose since you've already done the cleaning, I can stoop to removing garbage. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Tch. [still irked at being caught slacking, and him ordering her around, to boot] [disappears into the room they first met, dropping her kimono (ruined with blood anyway) on the floor outside of the bathroom as she takes on the task of cleaning the wound and her body] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	pezzonovante 2010-01-14 02:32 am UTC (link)
	[begins dragging the bodies outside, flipping open his cellphone to call in a few favors. Grunt work, really, but easily enough taken care of. There's still a substantial amount of blood and damage all over the place when he's finished, but it's empty of bodies] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[walks out, dressed in clean, casual clothes. Unfortunately, the place didn't have a shower, but she'd manage to towel the sweat and grime off]

[she wrinkles her nose as she sees the extent. She could have been less messy, she supposes. Things got out of hand.]

[she flips open her own cell, calling in someone to at least get the blood up. Thankfully she didn't have to worry about word getting around--she wanted word to get around]

	[reclines against the cleanest spot on the wall, managing somehow to preserve the impeccable neatness of his suit. It was an art form that one polished over the years] So when will you be reopening? After your renovations. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	snowlark 2010-01-14 04:39 am UTC (link)
	[eyes the damage critically] A month. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	pezzonovante 2010-01-14 04:56 am UTC (link)
	Hm. I suppose that's decent turnaround, for a change in management. [shoots her an amused appraising look] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	snowlark 2010-01-14 05:00 am UTC (link)
	[shrugs with her good shoulder] I added a week in case of problems. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	pezzonovante 2010-01-14 05:23 am UTC (link)
	Problems? [pushes away from the wall to give the place a cursory glance] I suppose it's like you to be so thorough. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	snowlark 2010-01-14 05:24 am UTC (link)
	[frowns] Stop making assumptions about my character. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	pezzonovante 2010-01-14 05:53 am UTC (link)
	So you would leave a situation unresolved behind you? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	snowlark 2010-01-14 06:01 am UTC (link)
	That's not the point. You don't know me, regardless of how thoroughly you've dug. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	pezzonovante 2010-01-14 06:09 am UTC (link)
	Perhaps we've met before. Should I tell you I'm truly crushed that you don't remember our time together? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	snowlark 2010-01-14 06:11 am UTC (link)
	If you didn't make a good first impression it's your own fault. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	pezzonovante 2010-01-14 06:17 am UTC (link)
	Oh, I think it was an excellent impression. You seemed quite smitten. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	snowlark 2010-01-14 06:18 am UTC (link)
	What are you babbling about? (Reply to this) (Parent)
