006. [ RL with Haruhi and Michael-- it's sleuthing time ]
[ Michael and Nena had returned to Cross's house to search for anything that would help against akuma or help to figure out what had happened to him; they'd made their way to the study once Haruhi arrived and were standing outside the door ]
Let's break the door down!
Let's break the door down!

[reaches out to examine the piano and runs her fingers along the notes before hitting a low key and the sound resonates throughout the room]
no subject
[He sighs and starts to look through the papers on the desk, not really taking much care with the papers he's discarded. Seeing a half finished bottle of alcohol, he picks it up and takes a swig.]
Hmm, not bad. The bastard's got good taste.
no subject
Don't drink on duty!
[ something catches her eye on one of the papers and she leans over to pick it up, reading out loud: ]
"What is Gundam?" Well, isn't it obvious?
no subject
Probably not to him. He comes from the past, right? The technologies that make a Gundam work are probably completely new to him.
no subject
[He dumps the pile of papers he just finished looking through on the desk and opens the top drawer.]
Err, what exactly are we looking for? It's not like he's just gonna leave a piece of paper on the desk saying Cross' Plans.
no subject
[ she finds the activation switch on the Haro and up pops a projected recording of Cross fighting akuma ]
See? We're making progress already!

[He thumbs through a couple more sheets of paper before pulling out a couple of sheets from the drawer.]
Well, there's a bunch of stuff here on the Akuma and shit. We can sort through it later on or something.
no subject
That looks like the things in the video. Except more dead. That means it's one of them, right?
no subject
no subject
Obviously not well enough.
[He sits down heavily on the chair by the desk]
Do you think he's left, like, a list or something of all the worlds he visited? Or the worlds he was gonna visit? That'd be really helpful right about now.
no subject
There's all sorts of weird notes here... if there's a list, it's bound to be here somewhere.
no subject
And once we have the list we can go to all those worlds in the TARDIS and find him!
no subject
He was funny until he wrecked my clothes, then the bastard had to pay.
[saying it to Maria, but he hasn't noticed everyone else yet. Mask completely visible for once]
no subject
What the--
[His eyes widen when he sees it's Cross. They widen further when he sees what's left of his clothes.]
Fuck dad, there are some things that I just don't need to see.
no subject
You're alive, you really are!
no subject
You're alive.
no subject
Yeah, of course I'm alive.
no subject
What do you mean 'Yeah, of course I'm alive'? You led everyone to believe you were dead, asshole.
no subject
[ but not letting go :| ]
no subject
[bites her lip and turns to face the wall behind her, crossing her arms and standing as straight as a stone]
no subject
That was the intention; if they think I'm dead, that means that they can go back and fight the front lines.
no subject
This could have all been avoided, you dickhead, if you had just told us what the fuck you were doing. Then we wouldn't have been sitting around twiddling our fucking thumbs, wondering if you were alive or not.
no subject
no subject
You shouldn't be such an idiot, if you do things like that people are going to come after you.
no subject
no subject
And once again, you completely avoid giving us a fucking answer.
[only just taking notice of the blood.]
What the fuck? Please tell me that all of that's not your blood.
no subject
It can't be, right? You're back so you're fine!
no subject
Don't pull that crap again, you idiot.
[and now have a hug]
