...Nnnnng Fuck.

[Have a Greed. He is plastered against the floor of a warehouse. He's got a fair amount of blood on him but it seems the wounds are gone, he just slightly dazed.]

Son of a bitch

[And have a Ran Fan, who suddenly appears in one of the windows of the warehouse, dropping down from it like the Goddamn Batman after she's checked the perimeter of the warehouse. SHE SHOULD'VE ACCOMPANIED THE YOUNG MASTER/GREED. D: Voice will give her away, but mask is covering up face.]

Young Master! Greed!

[Making way quickly over from landing spot.]

[Relaxes a moment once hearing Ran Fan's voice and then begins to peel himself off the pavement. Ouch.]

Bit late, Ran Fan. Geez, the fuckers went all out.

You should have let me accompany you! What if you couldn't have healed yourself!?

[Worried semi-scolding is a go! She kneels next to him, though hesitates before she reaches to help him sit up. Now for guilt time.]

I should have been more persistent in coming.

It was supposed to be an easy job. [rubs his neck, pops it once and turns to look at her.]

My healing's just fine. S'not like they tried to rip the stone out. Wouldn't have worked if they tried anyway.

[spondere.livejournal.com]

[Makes a frustrated face under mask. Easy job or not... but the healing and stone factor bothers her more.]

You and His Highness are both so reckless sometimes... That is not the point! Someone could have powers that cancel that out, you know.

[Am I being lectured by my bodyguard? What- 8|]

Well- They didn't, am I'm fine already, fuck.

[spondere.livejournal.com]

[YES YOU ARE. SHE IS TIRED OF YOUR SHIT, MISTER.]

... [except she totally deflates now. She is a terrible bodyguard baw.]

... what happened? With the deal.

[HEY I MAKE THE RULES HERE YOU CAN'T- sigh]

It was a goddamn set up. Good one, too. They didn't do their homework, though. Thought bullets would put me down. [Shrug.]

What a mess. [Rummages through his coat a little and pulls out his comm. He taps on it and it suddenly starts to beep.]

Ah, there we go.

[spondere.livejournal.com]

[I ONLY LISTEN TO YOU 90% OF THE TIME BECAUSE YOU HAVE CONTROL OF LING'S BODY. B|]

... [SILENCE as she watches him rummage and mess with his comm. She's thinking. It shouldn't take much for her to hunt dow--I mean find the people that were involved.]

They will know better, should they see you survived. They... Depending on how determined they are, they may try again.

[You have three chances to guess what your bodyguard is planning, Greedling.]

[penurium.livejournal.com]

[YOU STILL WORK FOR ME SO THERE.]

Yeah, so? Doesn't change the fact they ran off with something that was mine. Good fucking thing I tracked it.

...

[Looks at you. 8|]

[spondere.livejournal.com]

[FIEN.

Looks back at, frowning from behind the mask.]

... there's no reason they should get the chance to.

[FUCK WITH HER BOSS/MASTER COMBO, YOU'LL SOON COME TO REGRET IT.]

[penurium.livejournal.com]

[Deadpan look.]

What. You're plannin' to go after them by yourself? Hell no.

idk I wanted to use the flip icon.

[spondere.livejournal.com]

[FROWNNN.]

It would be easier for me.

ffff

[penurium.livejournal.com]

And what the fuck am I going to do when I'm out of a body guard because there's one of you and thirty of them?

Yao agrees with me.

[goihsdih goddamnit Ling.]

You going in alone is just as risky, with or without the Philosopher's Stone. As your bodyguard, I will not let either of you put yourselves into a situation like that again.

[Will later apologize--to Ling--about being so direct. B(]

[penurium.livejournal.com]

We'll both go.
