I'd like to remind everyone that if you have sightings or anything else about the lion to report, you need to call the hotline, if you can. You're flooding the police station, and we can only take so many calls at a time...

If you're injured, the best place to go is the hospital, or the Baker Street Surgery! They'll get us any information you request, but you need to be treated! We can do some first aid here, but deep gashes like that really aren't the police station's specialty, and it's mostly down to me and one or two others right now - everyone else is out hunting.

And, um, thank you to whomever was nice enough to leave the flowers on my doorstep this morning. They're beautiful!

On another note, ah, maybe this isn't the best time but... I just wanted to thank everyone who was so kind to me last week. I was hoping to give you gifts, but I've been rather caught up in the excitement. So if you have a favorite food, or an idea of what you'd like, would you be so kind as to tell me? I'd like to express my gratitude properly.

Hello... Sorry to bother you but I wondered if you might ~~want to discuss what happened~~ ~~want to talk~~ ~~be willing to see~~ like to get coffee sometime? And maybe talk?

Talk? Is this a wind-up?

A wind-up? Sorry, that's not a term I'm familiar with. I just thought... it might be nice to ~~find out expectations~~ ~~get dumped now~~ compare notes, if... if you were interested.

You don't have to do that. I was just helping a friend.

I know I don't have to... but I'd like to. [She may have said that before. Recently, too.] Please?

Oh, about what happened last week? Sure. Not much of a coffee man meself. Much rather grab a lager. Do you drink?

Ah! We could do that instead, if you'd like. I'm rather a light-weight, I think is the term, when it comes to drinking, but I think they usually serve soft drinks too, don't they? Bars and the like, I mean. I don't have much experience with them.

tch.
it wasnt anything to be makin a fuss over.

Maybe not to you, Sir, but it meant a lot to me. I think I remember you saying something about fried cookies once? Am I remembering properly?

Okay. I haven't had a good hamburger in a while.

Sheska, you're the best.

Oh no, Miss Carol, I'm not. But I do have some marvelous examples to try and live up to.

Let's see... Would you describe your idea of the perfect hamburger for me?

You're very kind, Sheska, but I was really just doing my job.

If you insist, however, perhaps we could go out for dinner some night after work?

Although probably not until after this whole thing with the lion is finished.

Completely unnecessary!

Anyway, as I recall, you stood up for me as much as the reverse. [Never mind that him standing up for her is the only reason he needed standing up for in the first place. That's not really relevant, right?]

It may have been simply your job to you, Master Koizumi, but it meant a great deal to me. It puts things in a whole different light, somehow. For what it's worth, if you chose to be a teacher instead of a police officer, I believe you would be ranked among the highest.

I'd like that, if you'd be interested! Where would you like to go?

what
oh no way
the way i remember it you were the one keeping my ass off the streets
or the library stacks
basically all the hard and uncomfortable things a teenager could think to spend the night on

Th-that was different. [Pause.] Somehow. At least, I feel like it was different. A-anyway, I'd still like to make you something. What's your favorite food? Er... assuming it's something I can approximate here, at any rate?

You were friendly to me, and that made a big difference in that... timeline. Universe. What do you call something like that? Ah, regardless, it meant a lot to me, and I'd like to thank you somehow.

I'm sorry I got you in trouble with your brother...

Well, I'm very glad to hear I was able to help in some way.

[Though he doesn't use a smiley face or emoticon, his warm smile is somehow conveyed through the text.] Thank you, Sheska. That means a lot.

Oh, I don't know. I think I'd like to try something new. Why don't you surprise me? I'd enjoy that.

Thick, juicy, probably with bacon and cheese.

Oh! Um... You're welcome... [The text doesn't stutter, but given how much time he spent listening to her talk, it's probably not difficult to hear it.] I don't know that I did anything worth your thanks, but...

Ah! All right, then. Hm. I'll have to think on that one. We tend to order in more than go out, but I'm sure I can find a good place. Is there anything that you don't like? Or that you're allergic to?

I don't really think so. You might not have been good at standing up for yourself, but the moment someone else was in danger, you were right there. That takes bravery. [Nope, still not self-aware enough to realize he's still talking about himself too.]

Ooh, my favorite food... That one's easy!

[His voice is as excited and animated as you've ever heard it, even as a child.] Fish fingers and custard!

[You know this thing's going to wind up double-thick with a basket-woven mat of bacon on it.]

What sort of cheese? And do you like any vegetables or sauces?

[Why yes, she is taking notes!]

[He smiles at the perceived stutter. Even when he didn't see it, hear it, or otherwise have any physical evidence for its existance, it was still adorable.] I'm not a picky eater, and I have no allergies to worry about.

If you'd prefer, we could order in instead.

[So good /drooling]

American. Onions are always good.

Seriously Sheska, you're the best.

[There's a sound like she had been going to refute that, but that second thing just caught her completely off-guard.]

I... beg your pardon? Fish fingers and custard? Ah... together? I mean... at the same time?

no look
i done got myself into trouble with bro and i kind of dragged you in too
sorry about that
i didnt think hed actually come after me and i figured even if he did id covered my tracks pretty well
but i guess not
so you dont owe me anything and in fact i probably owe you some kind of time management favor
