Homeless

[357magnum]

So, I'm another 'old man' to join your ranks of muses, huh? Geez, what a frikkin' privilege that is.

[There is the hiss of flame and the lighting of a cigarette. A casual inhale and a breezy exhale, then a finger jab.]

And don't think I don't see you eying that 002 guy from Cyborg 009. Don't ya think it's crowded enough up in here? Can hardly move for dusty muses and weirdo original characters.

Well, whatever. So long as me and Lupin can have some adventures while I'm stuck with you, I can deal.

So you better not forget to hit those meme things this time around. Don't think I won't take potshots at your 'game-active' muses, because I will.

Even if that one guy is a frikkin' suit.

Oh? You got dragged into this place as well?

[357magnum]

Apparently so, brat.


((ooc; Having trouble finding the Lupin vs. Conan Special, so unsure as to interactions.))

[redjacketthief]

Jigen-chan~

[Can you see that twisted grin?]

It's been a while.

[357magnum]

[Jigen grins right back.]

Not for me, it hasn't. But according to the mundane you've been out and about in some frikken' place called 'Luceti' or whatever for a while.

[redjacketthief]

Oh. That place.

[He snorted in annoyance and lit up a cigarette himself.] Yeah, your Princess is right on that-- been there for a year now. My advice? Don't go there. It's boring!

[357magnum]

[A snort] Princess? More like witch if you ask m-[Jigen cuts off then winces.] Christ, lady. Take a joke!

Well, hopefully I can avoid it, but from the way my mun is now cackling and mumbling about 'canon review', whatever that frikkin' is, I doubt it.

[redjacketthief]

Oh, no. We can't--

Princess! Make this stop!

...

Now mine's cackling. Looks like you're done for, buddy.

because everything is lupins fault. :|

[357magnum]

Wonderful. Just what I need to frikken' hear.

What have you gotten me into this time Lupin?

ffft

[redjacketthief]

Hey, don't blame it on me!

It's that Princess of your's. And, believe me, you're in for nothing good!

8D

[357magnum]

[Grumbling comes from Jigen as he acknowledges the fact he can't blame Lupin for this, this time.]

That's comforting to hear. Way to make a guy nervous Lupin.

It's not like I can stop the witch!

[redjacketthief]

Eh--eeeeehhhhhh???

[He yelped in surprise when Jigen grabbed him in a half nelson.]

It--it's not like we can do anything~ It's best to just..ah--cooperate with them!

[357magnum]

Cooperate with the Witch? I don't think so-ow! Lady, knock it off!

Christ Lupin, how do you frikken' deal with these....mundanes?

i c wat u did thar~

[redjacketthief]

Aah~

Mine listened to me for a while, Jigen-chan, but she's doing her own thing now. Princess has gotten mean.

/innocent whistling

[357magnum]

I don't think mine will listen to me at all. She keeps cackling, and it's disconcerting man.

Pretty sure the Witch was born mean.

[redjacketthief]

They tend to be like that.

--Listen. If you do get sent to that backwater hellhole, Fujiko-chan and I are there. We'll have your back.

[357magnum]

Wonderful.

Well, half of that is reassuring. Fujiko is there too? Man...

[redjacketthief]

You think too much, Jigen-chan.

[A confident grin.]

This isn't different from our other jobs. Not really. You just work with your Princess, I'll work with mine, and we're sure to get them to listen.

Heh. Maybe mine will even let me play again.

[357magnum]

And you think too little sometimes.

[Jigen sighs, but grins back. It' a reassuring sight, it it's own way.]

I wouldn't bet on that, but I suppose it does hurt to try.

I wish you all the luck. If your frikkin'... 'Princess' is as twisted as mine, you'll need it.

[redjacketthief]

[No words, just a laugh. There were just some things in life...]

Let's take that bet anyway. [The odds weren't terrible, especially with their luck.] Loser makes dinner.

[357magnum]

[Jigen chuckles as well.]

Oh, alright then. It's a bet.
