Needs a Favor

[colony_brat]

[Filtered from Hijiri and Written for Once]

Alright, I need someone who knows 'bout magic and stuff. I wanna put a spell into a piece of jewelery and I don't know how. Need someone ta help me or put the spell in it. Actually, I need ta do it twice.

Apparently I need someone who's skilled with enchantments. The long-term, doesn't wear off kinda thing.

[Action]

[Duo's stolen the necklace he gave to Hijiri for Valentine's Day. Hopefully the musician doesn't notice that it's been replaced by a duplicate. Then again, Duo's acting suspicious, sticking close to Hijiri's side since he doesn't have the protection of the necklace and he's hiding his journal.]

(ooc: Also, Nami, is it alright to say that Duo already stole it? I know we were going to do something with that, but Duo needs it for plot. We can say he stole it in the shower while the soap and Duo's hair was distracting?)

[shivers a bit at that] I know you did. You made that very clear last night~ This is kind of nice~

[colony_brat]

So you're not mad 'bout me bein' this close and followin' you around~?

[akumanotrill]

Not yet~ [and finishes the washing up then just leans against Duo] But don't you have anything to do today besides stick close to me? I thought you had a restaurant to run.

[colony_brat]

[Duo lifts his arms to wrap them around Hijiri and hold him.] I run the place so if I wanna take a day off, I can. People'll just have ta make pizza themselves or wait 'til tomorrow.

[akumanotrill]

Mn... what do you want to do then? We can stand here all day like this~

[colony_brat]

Think your legs'll get tired before too long. You can do whatever it is ya wanna do today. I'll just follow you 'round like your little puppy.

[akumanotrill]

Hm... what should I do today then... I have been thinking of learning another instrument. Maybe the piano since we have one here already. So I was thinking of going to the library to see if there are any books that might be useful.

[colony_brat]

Whatever you wanna do, I'm gunna follow you. They probably have a few books on how ta play the piano. They have books on just 'bout everything else.

[akumanotrill]

To the library then!

[colony_brat]

[chuckles] Yes dear~

[akumanotrill]

[laughs at Duo being silly] You make it sound like we married~ Hurry then, darling~ ♥ [takes his hand and goes outside]

[colony_brat]

[Duo laughs too, but lets Hijiri tug him along.] I can't call ya dear 'less we're married~? Guess I'll have ta stick ta bright eyes and love.

[akumanotrill]

[and off we go towards the marketplace] It's more the tone you said it in, I guess~ And that's what married people normally call each other, right~?

[colony_brat]

Wouldn't know. Guess it could be. I was tryin' ta sound like the guys when they're jokin' 'bout their wives so I guess so.

... [goes kill something]

[akumanotrill]

[laughs some more] You really like that daydream of yours a lot, don't you~?

I'm sorry! It's my fault. I let it do anon postings for my HMD post.

[colony_brat]

It was fun, but what's that got ta do with it? I coulda said "Yes, master," since I'm followin' you 'round like a puppy.

[akumanotrill]

[chuckles] Perhaps that was a slip and you thought you were still in your daydream~

[colony_brat]

[Duo shakes his head as he wiggles his fingers in Hijiri's.] Hmmm... but that was so long ago and I've very clear on the fact that you're notta girl~ But I'll check again just ta make sure~

[akumanotrill]

Still, you liked it very, very much~ Maybe later~

[colony_brat]

[Duo laughs as he follows Hijiri to the library.] Well, it was fun ta dream 'bout havin' a family and a home and stuff. But I'm happy 'nough with what I got now~ I have a very sexy devil ta serve and follow 'round like a good puppy~

[akumanotrill]

You'd better be happy enough or I don't know what more to do~

[looks around] Now where is the music section...?

[colony_brat]

Just keep bein' my devil and I'm more than happy, bright eyes.

Don't know. Know where some interesting non-fiction books are, but that's 'bout it. I brought books for Raenef a while back, but it seems like everythin's been moved since then.

[akumanotrill]

As long as you're my shinigami~

Interesting non-fiction? What kind? Mn... I wonder if they have a catalog somewhere... [scans the shelves he walks past as he looks for anything that might tell him how the books are organised here]

[colony_brat]

Long as you're happy keepin' me~

Yeah, like the camping book. Or they have books with big pictures. Rae liked those. [Duo keeps his fingers twined with Hijiri's, but he turns to look at the books on the other side of the shelves.]

[akumanotrill]

I am happy~

I see. [he stops and walks back a bit when one of the titles catches his eye, he pulls it out then smiles widely] Found one~
