Well.... not my best moment...

[governmentninja]

Puppies...

God damn puppies...

...yeah. I heard.

You did what you had to do, Leon.

[governmentninja]

I know.

Doesn't make me feel better, though.

[finalgirl.livejournal.com]

Want me to come over?

[governmentninja]

... *grins a bit*

Would I ever answer 'no' to that question?

[finalgirl.livejournal.com]

If you were really, really broken up... maybe?

Sherry's asleep. I'll be over--right about now.

[governmentninja]

You know my door is always open for you.

[finalgirl.livejournal.com]

Do you want to talk?

[governmentninja]

I'm fine, really. You have other things to worry about.

[finalgirl.livejournal.com]

Leon... if you're not fine, I'm not fine, okay? That's how this works.

[governmentninja]

I'm fine. It's no big deal.

It's just one PINpoint...

Just a box of puppies...

Really... no big deal.

[finalgirl.livejournal.com]

Leon.

It's me.

Stop lying.

[governmentninja]

Claire.

It's me.

I am fine. Just...

I had hoped I'd never have to go back there, is all.

[finalgirl.livejournal.com]

I can understand that.

If you're lucky, you won't have to. Eiko can just do it all from here. And even if you do have to go back... you won't be alone this time.

You're never alone... remember?

[governmentninja]

Yeah, I remember. And that means more to me than you could ever think to know that.

...

But... 8snerks a bit*

There's always something, isn't there?

[finalgirl.livejournal.com]

There always will be.

I guess that's just who we are.

[governmentninja]

Yeah...

I am fine. Seriously.

Yeah, the puppies bother me. Alot. Just the whole situation. There was no good way out of it, and the worst part is, I still made the right choice.

And the man sick enough to put those parasites into puppies then leave them in the nexus just may get his hands on a PINpoint. That really bothers me.

But that's being dealt with. It's just waiting around for all the info...

But I am fine. I'd feel better if I could actually do something, though.

[finalgirl.livejournal.com]

Yeah. The waiting's the hardest part... or those last five minutes. I hate the last five minutes.

If it'd help, I have a sledgehammer and a few walls I need taken down.

Otherwise... I have all night. I can listen, if you want to talk.

[governmentninja]

No, I don't want to talk, but I do want you here.

I could use the company.

[finalgirl.livejournal.com]

Whatever you need, Leon. Whenever you need it.

I promised.

[governmentninja]

All I need is you.

[finalgirl.livejournal.com]

[long pause]

Okay.

[governmentninja]

*quietly amused chuckle*

[finalgirl.livejournal.com]

Thanks. I'll be here all--

Well, I'll be here as long as I need to be.

[derek-bliss.livejournal.com]

Sorry man.

I was hoping too.

The bodies are taken care of. They got thier respects paid, too.

[governmentninja]

...yeah.

Thank's, Derek.

[derek-bliss.livejournal.com]

S'kay.

[gadgetqueen]

I'm sorry you had to do this.

I hate to ask this at a time like this, but do you have any specifications on that thing? I may need to duplicate it in the worst case scenario, and I'd rather not disassemble the working one.

I'm going to be heading over to Mayfair soon, see if I can trace exactly where Salazar went, and work from there.

[governmentninja]

I don't, but Luis might. Either him or the merchant.

Worse come to worse, you can borrow this one and run a few tests on it in the meantime.

Let me know as soon as you find anything on Salazar.
