Fyodor: "Too bad she died...Be nice if you had a way to--" Chuuya: "Bring her back?" Fyodor: *smiles at Zoey* "He's a smart one, yes?" zoey:...perhaps....but your knowledge vastly outweighs his. Fyodor: *nuzzle* "Of course~" Chuuya: "Are you trying to tell me something, or make me vomit? You have R--...You have her as this...this monstrosity. Why should I listen to one goddamn word you say..." *a crack forms along the floor as the room shakes* "...and not bring this building down onto you?" zoey:.....*looking at fyodor* Fyodor: "This book, as you know, will bring the dead back to life. And I know you, Chuuya. I've been watching you for some time. I know your habits. Your desires. Which wine you have when. Where you buy your Mother's Day gifts for that woman--" Chuuya: "?!!!" Fyodor: "I can predict every movement you take...so I know you will accept my offer. Because without Mito, you are a mess. And you want her to live the life she was denied. And all it takes is this book--to make your dreams into reality." zoey: ... Fyodor: "Including your vengeance against the man who defiled your beloved..." Chuuya: *shaking* yana: *observing through the cameras* ... Chuuya: "What do you need from me?" Fyodor: "Information. And for you not to whisper a word to anyone at the Mafia: not your mother, not miss higuchi, not your boss, not anyone." zoey: and not your former partner, especially... Chuuya: "So none at the Agency, either?" Fyodor: "And no one else you don't want Zoey to kill." *pats her head* zoey: hehe~ *scalpel shine* Chuuya: "...And you will resurrect...her." *looks at the doll* rain: ..... Chuuya: "...What sick fuck would do that to a corpse? ...How could you do that?" Fyodor: *pets Zoey* "Easy...I need an answer, Chuuya." Chuuya: "...I'll do it." yana: *small chuckle* Fyodor: "Good...We'll be in touch." Chuuya: "I'm sure. Will you show me out?" -the door opens, a masked figure is there to lead him out- Chuuya: "..." *follows* *his hand shifts slightly* zoey:.....shall i speak with the child soon? Fyodor: "??? Do you want to?" zoey: if it is what you wish for me to do...i'd gladly do so. Fyodor: *smiles, tickles under her chin* "Go ahead." zoey: ah~ yana: *rolls eyes and sticks tongue out as if to gag* ugh, you guys know i can still see you, right? Fyodor: "...Then leave it recording and exit the room." yana: ugh, say no more... Fyodor: *cuddles* "Pleasure before work..." -elsewhere- Relan: "It's good to be home..." *holding Buttons* buttons: ^o^ Relan: "Hee hee...Thanks for watching him, Iris." iris: any time, relan. ^^ Relan: "How was everyone while we were gone?" maki: check these out! *has the iron owls out* pretty cool, right?
