Originally, the plan had been for sky writing, but heavy rains ruined that. So instead, a large smoke message appears in front of the Temple of Heaven.

COME PLAY CARDS WITH US AT [X,Y]

FRIDAY AT SUNDOWN

- USAGI

Yes, it may have been Horst's idea, but he's not a suspect, he's asleep when the message goes up. Usagi is free to take all the credit.

I know that people are worried over me.

[Through gritted teeth.]

I understand that.

Then you should either leave off mothering others, or explain why the rule doesn't apply to you.

[That's the problem, isn't it, that she does these things because she knows what it feels like to be the strong one. Hitsugaya and Cloud need someone to take care of them once in awhile. So when the question is posed to her, she huffs in annoyance.]

I can't.

[Sure Horst doesn't really know you, but he likes you and you are making him grit his teeth more than Johannes usually does. THINK ABOUT THAT. Now have some very annoyed German.]

Wenn Sie nicht bekommen, etwas Schlaf bald werde ich dein Blut entleeren und machen Sie eine Woche lang schlafen.

And I'm sick of being talked to in German without a translation.

[JOHANNES DOES IT ALL THE TIME, HORST, SERIOUSLY.]

[It disguises what they're really saying! Johannes will pretend to be meaner. Horst will pretend to be crasser!]

I said, [and he is really really irritated so he actually has a German accent for once] I can always wear you out so you drift nicely off to sleep. I'm very good at it, Fraulein, trust me.

[Actually he said he'd drain you dry so you sleep for at least a week. But that's even creepier than innuendo and he's a Sekrit Vampire still. >( ]

Tch! I'm tougher than I look.

[Seriously, why does no one believe her?]

And I said 'I can't' because I can't explain, okay?

And when did I say you were anything but? If only I could believe you were just doing this to prove it to someone.

I'm not proving anything to anyone.

[Except herself, of course, but that's entirely different.]

[Someday Horst will learn how to keep being angry with girls. But not today. Now he just sighs and gives her a look that's somewhere between sympathetic and admiring.]

Can I bring you something to help keep you up, then? Doubt we've got coffee here but I'm sure Johannes has something I can borrow.

... I don't know if I trust anything he makes, he doesn't look like a good cook.

You're right. He can't 'bake' anything unless he's cremating it. That's why I'll be making you a tea or tincture or whatever you'd like to call it.

If you doubt me, you can ask Lily--she hasn't keeled over dead from anything I've made.

Lily?

Yes, Lily. Very pretty redhead? Witch? Healer?

You haven't met her?

-- oh! Lily. I've spoken to her once, yeah. She's nice.

Yes. [He can't help a small but very warm grin] She is.

[He glances up the stairs and then starts mixing together a mixture of herbs] Where are you?

...home, now.

Same temple that message was at?

No. Cloud's.

[It's as much home as the temple.]

Oh [veiled sarcasm] That should be a fun delivery. Tea's ready, don't make me hire an investigator to find you.

Don't antagonize him and he won't be a jerk.

[Trufax, Horst.]

I'm sure his story is different, but truthfully, he started it.

Anyway, coordinates?

... you can meet me at the fountain.

[x,y]

[She's certain Cloud wouldn't want him to know where he lives, so.]

[He gives her a smirk, but really it's not like he isn't in the same situation with his little hermit.]

Be there soon.

I'll be there.
