I'm not in the habit of disappointing people, you know?

[but he'll just give her a grin at that, confident and easy. if she wants a distraction, then he has no trouble providing. he'll gently scoop her up in his arms again and start to head out. they're headed for the simulation room!]

Do you prefer being up high or your feet on the ground?

[alteracion]

[ she wraps both arms around his neck and hangs out. she doesn't necessarily need him to carry her but of course she's enjoying it? ]

Up high. Did I ever tell you I've got a grappling hook pack on the train?

[sengokus]

[grace has been through a lot, she deserves this]

Whaaaat? That's so fucking cool! I wish I knew how to use one!

[alteracion]

I bet I could teach you. Everyone in the Apex has one. [ she does not currently, but they are going to a simulation room, so? ] It's super cool to use.

[ a pause as she looks at his eye patch ]

Just. Don't point it at your face. That's how Lucy lost hers.

[sengokus]

[oh

wow.]

..... I hope Lucy's okay!!

[alteracion]

Oh, yeah, don't worry, that was a while back. She likes the eye patch. She says it makes her look badass.

[ what grace is leaving from context is that lucy is maybe seven ]

[sengokus]

[there's just a grin, easy and confident]

Hell yeah! I bet it does! She's like the One-Eyed Dragon, Date Masamune...!! She can admire him along with me.

[oh dumb.

but he's walking into the simulation room then, adjusting his hold on grace just so that he can press a hand to the panel. the room shifts around them and they are definitely suddenly atop Tokyo Tower. hell yeah.]

[alteracion]

Date Masamune...?

[ grace has no idea who that is. but that's fine, because she's quickly distracted by the view around them! ]

Woah. Where are we? The view's great!

[ she's been higher up, technically, but that doesn't make it look less cool? ]

[sengokus]

[he's just laughing a little bit at that and then he'll go to carefully set her down so that she can sit comfortably with her legs dangling over the edge

he plops down next to her!]

Tokyo Tower! I don't know if we're actually allowed to be up this high in the real thing - so I wanted to try it here!

Some rules are made to be broken and all, right?

[alteracion]

[ ooh. grace looks down and normally she'd turn her head to grin at him but like, that kills the grace right now, so instead she just laughs, looking up at the sky above ]

Most rules are meant to be broken. [ teasingly, because she is chaotic, but: ] But it helps to do it somewhere where that won't get cops sent on us.

[sengokus]

[oh my god

he's just laughing]

What? What if I am the cops?

[alteracion]

Abusing your power and breaking the law, Copman? [ tsk tsks. ]

[sengokus]

[ . . . it's a joke but it manages to get mineo to hesitate for a second - before he forces a laugh]

Ahah, well, I think it's pretty fair game now. I'm not with the force anymore, so.

[alteracion]

[ i cannot believe mineo would make grace turn to face him (with accompanying wince. why, pod), looking mildly concerned ]

Do you wish you still were?

[sengokus]

Wh - don't turn your head if it hurts, Grace-san...

[hello???]

Mm.... I don't think so. I had my reasons for leaving, so...

[which actually i'm going to tag the memshare thread so i can get her those reasons so we don't trip up this one,,]

[alteracion]

Well, yeah, but... [ she's stuck looking at him now she can't turn her head again so she looks away with just her eyes ] Just because you had reasons to leave doesn't mean you can't miss it?

[ shrugs? ]

[sengokus]

[ . . . . he pauses for a little bit at that. maybe they suddenly got interrupted after the last memshare! who can say. anyway we're working on this thread now because holy fuck gmail]

.... maybe. But I need to sort of... work through those reasons first before I go back. If I should even go back....

[ . . . ]

Maybe I'm just overcomplicating stuff though.
