backdated to mid-morning yesterday, oops!

[fading]

[if anyone has attempted to contact Nami to wish him a Merry Christmas, they'll have been informed that the number is currently not in service. this might have something to do with the fact that, inside Nami's trashed apartment, his phone is sitting in a puddle of paintwater, sparking. Nami's nowhere to be found!


there's a frantic Kai calling for Nami as he makes his way through the park. he can feel that Nami's still in the dressing room, but there's a wall between their connection so solid he can't sense anything other than that.]



(ooc: Nami got a heart for Christmas. unfortunately, he's had a lot of negativity 'bottled up' so to speak, and the sudden onslaught of proper emotion wasn't taken well. he's in hiding, having taken a portal straight from his apartment! responses will be from Kai, at least at first, despite the fact that the post is from Nami.)

[dawnrise]

I'll call you before I do anything.

[She doesn't think he'll be done by the time she gets out of there, though. She looks back at Nami's door then.]

Time to go be alpha werewolf and drag him off. Have fun cleaning.

[seasides]

[he laughs a bit.]

Have fun dragging.

[dawnrise]

[She makes a face at him, then ducks closer again to plant a kiss on his cheek.]

Merry Christmas.

[seasides]

[he blinks, then laughs some more, capturing her so he can dip her playfully, only to kiss her forehead.]

Same to you.

[dawnrise]

[She looks alarmed at the dip, but laughs too and gives him one more hug.]

[seasides]

[which he'll totally return.]

I'll talk to you later.

[dawnrise]

Yeah.

[With that done she heads back to Nami's apartment first, hands in her pockets. What's he doing?]

[fading]

[he's sorting through a stack of papers Kai was nice enough to collect from around the room. some of them are stained with paint or ink, which he's regretting now.]

[dawnrise]

[She makes her way over quietly to tug on his sleeve.]

Come on.

[fading]

[he sets the papers down, looking at her curiously.]

What?

[dawnrise]

We're going to Kai's place.

[Nope, you don't get a choice.]

[fading]

Oh.

[that doesn't surprise him too much. he sighs and nods, readying himself to leave whenever Riku wants.]

Alright.

[dawnrise]

[She'll start heading out now, giving Kai another soft smile as she heads out.]

[fading]

[Nami follows suit, sending Kai a slightly sheepish smile and ducking his head. Kai just grins and waves back, then heads back into Nami's apartment once those two are out.]

[dawnrise]

[She'll turn to Nami after that, interested in how he's doing. She'll try not to make that too noticeable.]

Think you can handle running into Axel if he's there?

[fading]

I'll have to. There's no way he's not there.

[dawnrise]

...good point.

[She makes a face, but it's just teasing, really. Nami should know they're on good terms again.]

[fading]

And I'm sure he'll thank you profusely for finding me. Possibly with hugs.

[so there.]

[dawnrise]

Maybe Kai does need help cleaning.

[She looks back like she's going to go help him, but she's still walking with Nami.]

[fading]

Then you'll have no way of knowing I went to their house.

[dawnrise]

[Her eyebrows shoot up.]

I didn't realize I needed to keep that close of an eye on you.

[fading]

[he just smiles~~~.]

Think of who I have to learn from.

[dawnrise]

Oh, man. Good point. I'm not sure I can handle all that.

[fading]

Don't worry too much. I've observed long enough without a heart to know better, for some things.

[dawnrise]

You're a little less reckless, I'll give you that.

[But that's it.]
