Eighteenth Flight

[hot4engines]

I been doing a lot of thinking lately. Because I ain't much of a fighting or investigating type, and I'm feeling kinda useless with everything going on and all. But then, I started thinking that even if I can't do those things, I can still support everyone, and that means something to me. I can't sit and feel sorry for myself- it don't help nobody. But being myself does.

I made you lunch. I also left a buncha cookies and treats and stuff on your desk. They're for everybody to share. [And by that she means a big box of cookies and 3 dozen cupcakes.]

That's the spirit!

[hot4engines]

I have trouble staying any way aside from happy ♥

[Audio]

[coimiceoir]

Does that mean you'll smile more?

[Audio]

[hot4engines]

Yes. More than I feel like I have been.

[Audio]

[coimiceoir]

Good! It's better when you smile. Everybody else wants to smile too.

[Audio]

[hot4engines]

I do like it better when I don't got a frown on. It fits me a lot better.

[stretchy_pants]

Having the ability to fight isn't always a good thing.

[hot4engines]

When things like this happen, I wish I could, though.

[stretchy_pants]

The murders, you mean?

[hot4engines]

Yeah. I wish I could help in some way.

[stretchy_pants]

Fighting wouldn't really do any good. From what I saw, this is more of a... mystery... for the police to figure out.

[hot4engines]

Maybe "figher" ain't the best word then. Cleverer? Braver? Something that would mean not just sitting on the sidelines...

[stretchy_pants]

I'm sure there's something you could do. I mean. What.. do you do?

[dontmindmepleasecontinue]

Ah - that's an admirable mentality in these circumstances. Not everyone can take the lead, or there would be nobody who could follow.

[hot4engines]

Yeah, that's true. I ain't never been much of a leader.

[dontmindmepleasecontinue]

I'm the same way. It doesn't make our contributions any less important.

My name's Koizumi Itsuki. It's a pleasure to meet you.

[hot4engines]

I'm Kaylee! It's nice to meet you too!

I tend to fix things up when it's all said and done. I guess that's just as useful as anything.

[dontmindmepleasecontinue]

Yes, that does indeed sound like a very useful skill!

I'm just a student, myself. I suppose I am a good organizer, but that doesn't seem to be terribly pertinant around here.

[hot4engines]

I love machines. Always had a special talent for fixin' em.

That kinda skill could be great later on in life, though! And even while you're in school it's better to have it all together than be all over the place.

[dontmindmepleasecontinue]

I suppose that's true!

If I might ask, where are you from?

[mindoirsurvivor]

Thanks.

Dinner at my place, tonight?

[Text]

[hot4engines]

Y! Want me to bring anything?

Re: [Text]

[mindoirsurvivor]

Leave this one to me. Although, if you had anything in mind for after dinner, I wouldn't mind if you brought dessert.

[hot4engines]

I think I know just the thing ♥

Can't wait.
