[OFFLINE]

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.

REI

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.

[Silly girl, death doesn't matter here but being sick does. He'll see your sigh and raise you a mild groan.]

I can't imagine he's lost, half the city seems to be angry with him.

[Rhode is alive. There were no storm clouds on the horizon, which meant Hitsugaya didn't fight at his full potential. Which meant that there was a reason Hitsugaya wasn't fighting at his full potential. Something went wrong.

So she doesn't answer.]

[And of course Horst has no idea about anything that's going on, really. But his expression softens.]

When are you going to look for him?

When I can.

[Because, seriously, everyone and their fucking mother is watching her. And she refuses to just leave, because that would make her just as bad.]

And it would probably dampen your mood if I found him and dragged him back to you.

[Oh gdi Horst hopefully she'll turn you down so you can go back to being neutral. But seriously, this is how far Horst will go to cheer someone up. You can see how he wound up where he is.]

[... she is SORELY tempted to say yes. You have no idea. Seriously. But she sighs.]

He's capable of taking care of himself. Dragging him back is just going to set him off.

If he's here long enough to have you punch him, you can get some sleep. I'd say it's worth it. Better than waiting until you're finally able to leave your current responsibility.

[She's aggravated. gdmit. People are not understanding.]

I'll get sleep when I get it.

[He fights over sleep with his brother, he's not going to put more effort than this into it.]

Stur Mädchen. The very least you could do is understand that others are worried for you and your adamant refusal to take any advice makes you no better than the idiots who ran off in the first place.

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?
