In any case, you're now backstage, standing guard in front of Kirishima Ruri's dressing room door. Sayaka is inside along with your client, along with a few other idols - you can hear them giggling and comparing measurements and other such nonsense inside. The rest of the security detail - that is, Kyosuke and his men, Enishi and Squad Hiryu - had already broken up and taken their respective positions, to start assisting you on this operation.

Apparently, you've managed to deliver the Principal well ahead of schedule, and as such the preparations for the concert proper haven't even finished yet.
Despite this, the backstage section is a flurry of activity. Extras in gaudy, vibrant costumes rush to and fro, some being herded into makeup, others murmuring mantras underneath their breath, telling themselves that they won't, they CAN'T screw up during their very first performance, in front of thousands of people. The tension, the stress, almost coming off of them in sweaty, nauseous waves.

You spot the occassional idol here and there, too - each one made visible in the throng by harried-looking assistants hovering around them, orbiting like fussy sattelites. Each one wielding a brush or a foundation pad or a makeup implement of some sort, each one lashing out at the heavenly body they're surrounding, changing her appearance with every step she took. A transformation sequence in slow motion - from mere girl next door to the stuff dreams are made out of.

There's thirty minutes before the contest proper begins with the opening number - which, you've been notified, isn't one your principal is performing in.

What do you do for now?

With her legs and bust, it would be unfair if Midori got the best butt as well. She's just an all-rounder, ranks very high in everything but not quite top (Mami better boobs, etc).

Also despite the obvious bad omen decapitation is, they still don't really make it feel like things are ramping up. More like some unrelated enemy just dumped it in there before going on with their business. Shit hasn't even started going down yet.

You decide to indulge yourself while on guard duty. A quick rifling through your inventory gets you a half-empty, half-squashed pack of cigarettes. You carefully and delicately pick out one from the flattened mess, managing to pull a particularly-bent stick without tearing the thing in half. You hold it between your lips as you reach into your inventory for your lighter, this time - and with a flick of your wrist and a metallic click are you able to breathe smoke into your lungs again. Calming, soothing, smoke. Immediately drawing venomous looks from everyone else backstage, which you pointedly ignore.

Savoring the taste, you also decide that it's high time you start doing your own job - and you switch on the headset you're wearing under the Warmaster Cap. A sudden rasp of static fills your ears, before it's replaced by terse, one-word conversations delivered from gruff, gravelly throats. You catch the occassional 'affirmative' and 'roger wilco', said in more youthful and more feminine tones - Squad Hiryu, who had been included in the security detail's network since they'd arrived.

Keeping your voice down, you ask for a sitrep, and they deliver it to you with surprising cohesion. Kyosuke's men are already posted along the entrances and exits, watching over the people coming and going, eagle-eyed for any suspicious folk. Squad Hiryu has already taken up their vantage points in the stadium, and had been in the middle of sweeping for potential targets when you called in. Nothing from either team.

Enishi also reported that while there was a very slight degree of magical activity hovering around in the stadium grounds, it was not a cause for concern - her professional opinion being that it was only a few untransformed magical girls in the audience, possibly to enjoy the concert along with the rest of the mundane folk. If they meant any harm, the magical activity would definitely be stronger.

[1/2]

>>27060389

You're about to ask for Kyosuke, then, when suddenly an extra, even more gaudily-dressed than the rest in the backstage area - steps up in front of you. Its hair long and wild and an obvious fake blonde, its face painted with ashen white makeup and sharp black streaks to exagerrate the eyes, mouth and cheekbones, giving it a crazed, gaunt look. Its costume consisting of an obviously-stylized suit of armor, one consisting of a broad breastplate molded and painted to look skeletal with a faux ribcage, black leggings and shiny metal greaves. A heavy purple cape hanging from its shoulders, along with a crimson guitar made to look as if blood is caked on its upper half.

Just as you're about to tell it to get the fuck out of your face, it speaks - and in a horribly-familiar voice. "Situation normal from my sweep earlier, Miss Chiaki." The thing blinks at you, before laughing lamely. "S-sorry. I was in the vicinity anyway, and I thought I'd deliver my report face-to-face."

...What? What the hell is he talking about? How'd he know your name--

The extra blinks, before pointing at himself. "Me? But--ah, of course. The makeup." He reaches up with a gloved hand and taps at his headset. "It's Kyosuke, Miss Chiaki. From the security detail, remember?"

What the fuck. What the fuck is this.

How do you react?

You stare at the thing that called itself Kyosuke only a few moments ago, in the young man's voice no less. You continue to stare in stony silence, as you allow the cigarette held between your lips to burn up slowly - along with the remaining shreds of the clean-cut, responsible image you had of him.

You repeat yourself, again. What the fuck? What the hell is he wearing? And why weren't you notified in advance?

"It's...uh, it's supposed to be a costume of a quite popular death metal musician, Miss Chiaki. Johannes Krauser II, I believe. Have you ever heard of him?" The young man smiles nervously, his makeup twisting his expression into a wild, manic grin.

You shake your head, saying nothing.

"A-ah. Well, he's not quite popular now, what with suddenly going into temporary hiatus and everything." Kyosuke all but stumbles on his garishly-costumed self to try and cover up what sounds like disappointment in his voice - as if he was expecting you to at least have an inkling of what the hell he was talking about. "Anyway, erm, it was a last-minute thing they decided, Miss Chiaki. They needed someone built enough to wear the costume and able to play lead guitar. As it turns out, uh, I can do both. Quite the coincidence, wouldn't you agree, Miss Chiaki?"

...Yeah. What a coincidence.

Is he going to stay like that the entire time? It's obviosly going to get in the way in case something does happen and you need every able hand to be able to do their job, here.

[1/2]

>>27060815

"Oh, no, Miss Chiaki!" Kyosuke's eyes go wide here, his makeup twisting an expression of surprise into one of manic insanity. "This is only for the opening number! As soon as it finishes, I'm going to run offstage and get back into my uniform, as soon as I can. But in case something does happen during the concert, I've got my concealed carry." He lifts his cape and turns slightly to reveal a holstered Beretta M9, strapped to his back.

Well...fine. As long as he knows what to do.

"Of course, Miss Chiaki." Kyosuke nods. "Despite how I look, I am taking this job seriously."

You stare at him again, before breathing smoke through your nostrils. Right. Fine.

What's his report, then?

And so, while standing in his awful, awful costume, Kyosuke gives you his report. Again, like the rest of the security detail, he didn't see anything out of the ordinary - except, of course, the fact that Yoshitaka Mine, Head of the Tojo Group, is sitting in the most expensive seating section of the concert - along with some recording company executives and bigwigs.

"He came along with his own security, Miss Chiaki. Four men, most probably armed." A moment. "We tried to deny him entry, but he did have tickets, and the stadium owner demanded that we let him through."

Huh. Well. Seems that the other shoe has indeed dropped.

How do you react?

We should use our Shield more often to freak people out.

I'm tempted to use timestop set up either a bomb under his seat or just frame him with something illegal (drugs or something?) and get him kicked out now. Should we? It's going to make problems and force a confrontation early, but better now than actually in the concert.

Too bad we can't have Enishi just callidus barrier then into a seperate concert.

That said, we should check around just about fucking everywhere else, too. Squad Hiryu should be able to have easy sights on them if we know where they're going. It just seems like a really easy diversionary tactic to just walk in the front door.

Done.

Seriously, we have the most broken Meguca-Ability of all, we really should abuse it more often.

>>27060978
>implying that will placate the crazy girl

>>27060978

Except that abuse tends to end with our heart getting ripped out.

Also, don't forget that Pinky demonstrated she can force our time stop to end if she wants to. It's unreliable as a trump card.

>>27060978
While I don't blame Pinky for not using it, we need to turn the shield manually. I'd rather not show a lot of people how our shield works until we get our TK back.

>>27060978
Normaly I'm confident with out Pinky taming ability but she hates idols, so the chances of her being in a good mood are slim.

>>27060826
Broken computer makes this way harder than it needs to be.

>>27060978
It can't be abused because Pinky can just go "Nope! No Timestop for you!" and deactivate it.
The shield obeys her, not us. She can activate and deactivate Timestop at will, while we need to physically crank it.

if we do use timestop, we'll have to do it where no one can see us and we can 'acquire' the Yak guns quickly.

>>27061037
Decu warns you beforehand, doesn't he. That's the only way you could be doing these so quickly.

Funny, we all worry about what mood Pinky will be in every time we use our shield, but the thing that would scare me the most would be her not being there at all. Not even after calling out for her.

>>27061043

Krauser is the same number of letters as Kyosuke.

Coincidence?

>>27061043
>guns
aren't as much as a problem as them being in the way when the magical girl stuff starts happening.

I personally like the idea of framing them for bringing prohibited items into the concert by just slipping drugs into their bags or something, then forcing them to leave. Hell, we could get them arrested potentially.

>>27061048
No, I do these in real time, hence the... "quality".

>>27061074

we don't have drugs on hand and going through the audiences pockets takes to long.

>>27061074
Problem with that is how do we get evidence they have prohibited items on them? I'm not an expert on Japanese law, but I would guess that like all devloped nations you need more than just "I bet those dudes have drugs!" to search someone.

>>27061092
Damn it, Midori. Shouldn't have let her go through our stuff.

>>27061099
I don't think pancakes count as illegal under the letter of the law. Yet.

>>27061099
Didnt she just pocket our smokes?

Haaaaaa, life was easier when we had our painkillers..

>>27061074
We don't have drugs.
We guns, though, but good luck collaring them for that when most of us are probably carrying too.

>>27061138
She emptied our pill bottles at an earlier point.

>>27061141

difference being that we are security detail and they are gangsters.

>>27061138
Stop that. We don't need Green and Yellow giving us the "warmaster, I am disappoint" face.

>>27061141
I don't think she went through our inventory shield, did she? I bet we've got some sort of illegal device in there. Bomb is probably a bit too dangerous, the concert'd be called off.

>>27061095
"Anonymous tip off". We're hired thugs who answer to the concert, we're not police. And if they don't stick with the rules, we get to kick them out.

>>27061164
>the concert'd be called off
That would be terri- OH WAIT NO IT WOULDN'T.

>>27061180
It would be rescheduled though. Then we'd have to do it all over again.

>>27061180
>wanting to extend our mission
you fucking BASTARD

>>27061180
Pretty sure "Intentionally ruining the concert" isn't in our contract. If we can't defend a principle during a major public performance, then what good are we?

>>27061206
>If we can't defend a principle during a major public performance, then what good are we?
Technically, we'd be better at killing a target during a major public performance.

We're on the wrong fucking side.

>>27061222

That's it. We need to do this. Start thinking how we'd kill Ruri every second, and deploy everybody to counter that move.

>>27061196
Oh no no no. We agreed to be her escort for THIS concert. Sure we'll cut her a break and waive the fee, but if she wants someone to fuck with for the next one, she can deal with a legion of low-ranking plebs.
By that time we'll have purged the Tojo group and possibly the Tenth Officio, so things will probably go a lot smoother then.

You know, we REALLY should have told at least our own officio to make sure to register if they're going to the concert, with strict orders to get get out as fast as they can with only minimal magic.

I don't want to accidentally frag any of our own who just came to see the party.

But we get to do the badass thing by taking the harder job.

>>27061229
What would we do..
>timestop

I think we're better off asking others what they'd do. Also I don't think they want to kill Ruri, more like get her to sign a contract.

>>27061249
Balls. You make a good point. I don't suppose Mami or QB might know if any of our own are at the concert? Wouldn't hurt to ask.

>>27061229
I think we'd probably just strangle her. Over and over. Eternally.

Erotically.

>>27061249
You know what else could go wrong? What if there are MG's from neither our own or the 10th? Shit would really go down if we killed someone from another officio.

>>27061266
K..Kinda sugoi..

>>27061249
Wait, we've got a bunch of girls back at the officio watching this shit on TV, right? Well they can just ID girls from crowd pan shots, and text them to be ready to GTFO without a fight if shit fucking blows up.
And we can get the Vanus or whatever to ID girls from other officios and text us details.

>>27061298
>>27061261

Let's do this.

>>27061298
The closest Officio to us in proximity is the 10th, and they may have been hired to work against us. I don't think they'd give us the most reliable intel given they could easily have girls both just watching the show and involved in doing something to Ruri.

>>27061325
What part of my statement implied I wanted to talk to Dickbutt Officio?

>>27061298
Good idea. Also, tell Enshi or whoever's on disguise-busting to scan the crowd for basic magical disguises. We don't come down on them now, but we'll at least be looking in the right direction, as well as tell the girls back in the officio to text their mates in the party if anything happens, bug out with anyone they came with?

So, we're not doing anything about the Tojo boss right now, then?

>>27061340
The part where you implied that it'd do any good, since the most magical girls by proximity would be from the 10th.

Hey Decu, quick question:
Which number Officio is in China?
Does Korea get its own Officio, or are they the bottom bitch as always in the China-Korea-Japan rivalry?
And does Taiwan get its own Officio, or does the one on the mainland have jurisdiction/market dominance?

>>27061325
He meant we know the higher target threats of the 10th so if there's any well known MGs from there we can ID them and be ready to act if they move.

>>27061354
And surely our own officio would have absolutely no intel whatsoever on their nearest and dearest rivals.

>>27061354
It's still worth checking who out of our lot are there, or if any have come from abroad for the concert (a possibility given Ruri's international fame) to avoid any unfortunate incidents.

>>27061354
We keep eyes on the 10th, we've got files on them. Sending some video footage back to base to ID any of them in the crowd is something we can do in-house without worrying about bothering the 10th "hey, did you send any assassins to kill our principal?"

She said she didn't detect any active magical use. I'm going to trust in the Callidus Rank Leader that when she checks magical activity levels, she's taking disguises into account.

>>27061377
There are actually 21, but you have to recognise either the mainland chinese or Taiwanese officio, as both insist there is only one real Chinese officio.

>>27061400

We should totally ask her if she can overwrite contracts the way QB did to Midori.

You cross your arms over your chest, glaring down at your feet as you think. As much as you'd prefer them being escorted out of the premises, doing it in plain sight of important-sounding executives doesn't sound all that smart. You're not as stupid as to try and have them taken out in full view of the audience, either.

You look back up, nodding to yourself once, and then barking your instructions to Kyosuke. You want one of his men to get as close as possible to the group, but not close enough that they find out if they're being spied on. Someone he trusts personally - someone that can't be bought out no matter how thick of a wad of money's slapped into his face.

Kyosuke looks offended at this, his makeup turning the expression into one of complete and utter hatred. "...Very well, Miss Chiaki, but I do wish to put forward that not one member of my team isn't trustworthy. I'd trust any one of them with my life."

...Right. So can he do it or not?

"I'll assign my best man on the job, Miss Chiaki." Kyosuke replies after a moment, a bit more stiffly than usual. You nod at this, and go on to tell hiim that you'll have one of Squad Hiryu give Kyosuke's man overwatch as well as keep Yoshitaka Mine in her sights. Ready to take him out the moment he tries anything funny.

"Isn't that a bit excessive--" Kyosuke starts, before someone new comes into the scene, spouting what sounds like a foreign language consisting of sliding vowels and half-coughs. ...German, you think.

The both of you turn to look at the source of the voice - and the both of you behold a rather tall and lean idol, dressed in a rather revealing costume consisting of red intercrossing leather straps, and spikes, and a whip with spikes on the end. Her long crimson hair styled into the same wild look as Kyosuke's wig.

Who...? Oh. Wait. It's...you saw her in the stadium rehearsal yesterday. Map-something? Mapo Tofu? Map--

[1/2]

>>27061505
Hooray, it's the other sadist!

>>27061505
FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT

>>27061505

"Well, whose fucking fault is it that you have to play Kirishima's poolboy day in and day out? If you only continued doing what you were born to do, rather than keep working like a prole-"

More German from Kyosuke, a bit more hurried and hasty this time, and it's here that the young man makes a break for it. Apparently eager to get away from Mappi. "I'll have my man on the job, Miss Chiaki! Rest assured of it!" He calls back over his shoulder, cape flying out behind him as he escapes.

"Idiot," Mappi breathes through a frown, before nodding at you. "You. I saw you at the rehearsal, yesterday. I don't suppose you're looking for a career change?" She looks you up and down with an appraising look, her deepening frown signifying that she's not all that impressed.

You narrow your eyes at this idol, before shaking your head.

"Pity. We could use a new S." She lets out a breath. "We're kind of a dying breed, ever since your principal pretty much leveled the playing field to just her and me." The redhead glances at the door behind you, shaking her head, before stalking off in the direction where Kyosuke went.

Idols, you grunt underneath your breath. It's here that you feel both your wrists warm up the slightest bit - the golden bangles you've been wearing seemingly trying to catch your attention.

What do you do now?

[]Call Kyuubey about the corpse.
[]Call Kyoko about her assignment.
[]Talk to Yuu.

GW on the premises

>>27061580
I want to offer HER a change of career. Can you imagine her as an Eversor trainee under Sayaka? I can, and it is fucking hilarious.

>>27061646
I think she means that Ruri's success has driven a lot of S idols out of business.

>>27061653
Hmmm, actually given Ruri's pretty much got her idol niche locked down, that might even work. Except for the whole contracting thing, but hey.

At least it would piss Sayaka off in a way that gives Chiaki a perfect excuse, which can only be a plus.

Except it turns out they get along perfectly and mutually piss Chiaki off instead.

>>27061706
We need more people that annoy Chiaki in a good way.

Or as I like to call them, "acceptable kneecaps".

>>27060032
oh lawd that filename I'll be using that.

>>27061717
It's a pity only MGs (and enemies) are acceptable kneecaps, when so many of the characters we meet that need serious kneecapping are civilians.

>>27061869
It sorta comes with the territory
A lot of untouchable people are utter cunts

>>27061869
We should ask Misaka for a gun the simulates the experience of a kneecapping, without the permanence of actually blowing their lower leg off.

>>27061869
That does not have to be so. Just accept the flesh of the fallen angels.

You roll up one sleeve just so that the golden bracelet underneath is visible. ...From the faint glow surrounding it, not to mention the warmth pressing gently into your skin - it seems like Yuu's trying to catch your attention indeed. Funny - you've been wearing them for so long that you'd almost forgotten what they were, instead of just fancy jewelry.

In any case, you might as well see what she wants. This is probably the first time she'd deliberately attracted your notice like this, and you're not going to ignore it.

How did it go again? You have to close your eyes, right? Focusing on the Golden Weapon and nothing else. Slowing your breathing down, relaxing your entire frame. Letting your senses unroll from your own soul gem, to reach out to the bracelets--

"Matsuda-san?" You hear someone say your name right next to you, snapping you out of your concentration. You grunt irritably at this, opening your eyes to glare upon the intruder and hopefully scare her off.

You blink again to see Yuu, in her usual black onesie-hoodie kind of deal. Just as tanned as always, the lower half of her face covered by her hood's muffler. Her eyes completely black, her pupils bright amber.

...She's right there, in the real world. In the stadium. Beside you. You're not inside the Golden Weapon, she's outside--

"O-oh! Um, no, Matsuda-san, please don't be too surprised!" Yuu holds up both hands placatingly, shaking her head furiously. "I'm not really outside, I'm still in the Golden Weapon! You're the only one who can see me right now!" She thinks for a moment. "Um, please think of me as a ghost that only you can see!"

A ghost?...Well, sure. But how...?

[1/2]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VsTe7-F8evs

>>27062154

It's here that the short, dark-skinned girl seems to blush. "Um, well, I know Matsuda-san was doing something important today, and bringing her home would just be too much of a distraction, s-so...um. Well. I just took a bit of your energy to manifest myself here. D-don't worry, it was only a little bit...I took it when you were having breakfast, earlier."

Ah. That's...that explains why you asked for seconds, then. With the pancakes.

Yuu blinks, before shaking her head. "E-er, no, Matsuda-san. That was all you. I took some from your orange juice."

...Right. Well. Erm. Did she need you for anything? That's why she made the bracelets feel warm earlier, right?

"Oh, yes!" Yuu nods. "Um, Matsuda-san, remember how I told you about how I fought a Magical Girl in America? The one who nearly killed me with a kitchen knife?"

Yeah? You remember that at leasst. What about her?

"Um. Well..." The spectral girl looks down, her form flickering out of existence briefly. "See, I know it's weird, but after I fight someone I could always tell if they're around...a-and I think she's here, Matsuda-san. Right in this very stadium."

...Oh.

Yuu was nearly killed by Wendy? I..don't remember this bit. Why, memory.

>>27062210
>>27062223
[x] We don't know her motives, could be a third party, could be bystander, could be enemy. But she's dangerous.

Otherwise, proceed as normal.

All we knew at that point was 'a girl with a knife'

>>27062257
We can have a nice chat afterwards, while we're not in the middle of a mission and there are so many cameras around. Right now is not a good time to have a chat.
And we still don't know what she's after. Even though we told her it'll all be ok in the dream,

Dreams and reality don't often meet the way you want them to.

>>27062241

Actually, Yuu nearly killed Wendy, not the other way around.

Ask if she's going to cause any problems. If not, we have a job to do.

>>27062303

>>27062252
Reworking this a bit:
[x] Attention all units, there is a high-level Magical Girl from neither the Ninth or the Tenth Officios in the area, to be specific a former member of America's famed Rabbits squadron. We don't know her motives, could be a third party, could be bystander, could be enemy, could be ally. But she's dangerous. Do not engage in close combat except for self defense if she comes after you, or if she engages the principal. Do not initiate hostilities. If she targets you get out and let us know. Otherwise, proceed as normal.

>>27062257
Well, there's a high-tier MG who's supposed to be dead running around. Its only courteous to let our team know that she's here.

>That awkwardness when your old squeeze tried to kill your gloves once.

>>27062339
Was that supposed to be a pun? Get a grip, man.

>>27062339
>old squeeze
Technically she's our newest squeeze.

>>27062359
I see that >>27062339 doesn't have a stranglehold on those puns.

>>27062166
"Name, description."

If we Squeeze Wendy's squeezables while wearing Yuu does that count as a threesome?

>>27062385
If that were the case, then Wendy wearing the bracers would be cheating.

And also very awkward.

>>27062385
If Yuu manifests and watches, which one of us is the pervert?

>>27062383
This.

>>27062166
Wait, didn't Wendy suffer death by Malal?

I now want to see that Midori/Wendy picture where Chiaki has walked in on them continued.

Chiaki just calmly walks in and starts Yuu-squeezing wendy's butt.
>..."keep going"

>>27062326
If it's Wendy,
[x]this
Otherwise check for more details on appearance.

>>27062415
What? No. She was killed by some chick from UAA. Then revived by Pinky.

>>27062415
She got better.

>>27062321

Just checked and I remembered wrong. Wendy did nearly kill Yuu but Yuu son that fight anyway.

>>27062432
Why did Pinky revive her? As a favor to us?

>>27062452
As a favor to herself.

>>27062452
>Pinky
>Favors

Nah, she must have SOME sort of plan.

>>27062452
The ways of the Pinky are mysterious.

>>27062452
We don't know. It's probably related to that thing Wendy couldn't tell us last time we met her.

>>27062461
>what'd most embarrass/annoy mybdear homura-chan?
>I know! I'll bring back one of her exes from the dead!

Sorry everyone, I have to cut this short as I suddenly have work in five hours D: We will continue, however, on Sunday Night! Thank you for everyone's participation, and feedback is always appreciated!

Most voted action starts the next thread! Questions answered after the writeups, and we've got a new person writing for us!

>>27062461
Indeed, the question is do we assume Wendy being here is part of her plan or just a coincidence?

Protip: there are no coincidences.

“Do it.”

We stood there together, the magical girl and me, and we stared each other down. I’d set a passcode – a sign, a secret signal – with QB Heavy when I set this job up, but…

“It’s degrading…ma’am.” But Sparkles wouldn’t do it. She gave me a look like she’d just stepped in something from under her baseball cap. “I’m sorry, but I’m not here to amuse you or something. You needed me to do a job, and I’ll do it.”

I slumped. She just wasn’t getting it.

“Listen,” I said, trying to keep the irritation out of my voice. “I set up a passcode so I could be totally sure you were one of Mister QB’s girls and not some like, super terrorist or something that wants my butt in a blender. So do it, or I’ll just go alone, and I’ll probably die, and you’ll have to live with it.”

“…” She opened her mouth, then shut it again with a sigh before starting to move. Thinking lightning-fast, I whipped out my phone to take a picture as she assumed the position, and she glared at me with a venom usually reserved for the biggest and jerkiest bees. Do bees have venom? I feel like I should know this.

“…Nyaaa,” she grumbled – which I didn’t even think you could do, going ‘nyaaa’ – as she took on a lucky cat-ish pose. …Even if she hated me for it, I still took a picture. She was really cute, for a battle-hardened killing machine.

…Subarashii desu nya.

“…Are you done?” the magical girl huffed, while I set my new phone wallpaper. “Is that good enough?”

I really sort of expected there’d be more cat ears, but I decided that just this once, I’d give her a break. There was violence in those cobalt blue eyes, and it’d be a shame to waste it on me. Both of us had bigger fish to fry tonight. …And maybe some fried fish after.
