[She - nearly reaches out to touch his arm on instinct, but stops once she remembers. The concern remains in her expression, even though it's joined with something new; it's not quite annoyance or frustration, but...

All the same, she gives pause, before deciding she doesn't want to push it.]

I'm willing to bet tomorrow is going to be tough.

[It always is, but they've got three bodies that more than likely won't pop back to life this time.]

[unpredicktable]

[ he follows the slight movement of her arm with a bit of a wry grin, as if to say-- same. he misses platonic touch a lot, this week. ]

No kidding. It's going to be a mess. [ but speaking of messes-- ] I know you don't handle evidence much, but be especially careful tomorrow? Aizawa was poisoned, and Hizamaru got a dose of it checking on the body. [ dick grimaces ] I should've thought to warn people to try and handle that kind of stuff with gloves.

[ they have a lot now in the costume shop. they are all. terrible, but they exist!! ]

[uncurtained]

So it’s a kind that affects you even if you’re just touching it? The poison, I mean.

[unpredicktable]

Probably he inhaled a little of it, honestly. It's strychnine-- most commonly found in rat poison. Or, in our case, the gift shop.

[uncurtained]

As happy as I am about some of the stuff in the gift shop... It would be nice if we could track it, wouldn’t it?

[unpredicktable]

[ he'd make a joke about the bedazzled dildo if there hadn't been like three bodies found a few hours ago. ]

It would. I almost considered trying to buy out the more dangerous stuff, but that doesn't help us if I...

[ if dick's the one who's possessed! woops. ]

[It’s clear from her expression how she feels about that idea, and that might be why it takes her time to respond.]

You could always break them once you bought them.

[unpredicktable]

[ he tilts his head in thought ]

... It's a possibility. I don't know if I've got the dough to pull that off right now.

[ HE'S NOT THAT BIG OF A SLUT and also he focused on like buying useful stuff instead ]

[uncurtained]

[This isn’t a time to laugh, but she manages a smile.]

Big spender, huh?

[unpredicktable]

[

:T ]

How many tokens do you think I have?

[uncurtained]

I feel like you're going to be offended no matter what I guess.

[unpredicktable]

In this case, I wouldn't be mad with you lowballing it.

[ being called a dog is one thing but he ain't that big a slut...damn... ]

[uncurtained]

...Okay, hint taken. No more teasing about that particular subject.

[unpredicktable]

It's not-- [ he runs a hand through his hair ] Sorry. I'm on edge. I don't care about the teasing.

[uncurtained]

...Nobody can blame you for being on edge, you know. It's okay.

[unpredicktable]

[ but he can be mad at himself sooooo like ]

... It's not, but... thanks.

[ he shouldn't be snapping at?? people?? he likes?? again??? hahaha ]

[uncurtained]

[...]

Can you please tell me how you're really feeling?

[unpredicktable]

[ the question takes him by surprise. clearly. ]

...I...

[uncurtained]

Not that I'm going to force you or anything, but...

[unpredicktable]

I don't, um... [ he laughs a little, though there's no joy in it ] Sorry. It's... not that I don't want to talk to you about it. It's-- I don't want to talk to anyone.

[ maybe he's brucing it up a little. ]

[uncurtained]

[After a few moments:]

Right. Sorry, I didn't mean to overstep or start a big thing.

[unpredicktable]

It's not-- like I said, it's not... [ he shrugs a little ] Raised in secrets. I can tell you right now I didn't learn how to deal with emotions from my mentor.

[ it's a joke ]

[uncurtained]

Right, and that's... I mean, I'm not going to say I know what it's like, but it seems tough. I just...

[She hesitates, then shakes her head.]

Now's probably not a great time.

[unpredicktable]

[ ... ]

You just?

[uncurtained]

...I just worry. That's all.
