Hey, uh... I don't suppose anyone's heard from Naoki since yesterday?

[Pause...]

Not that there's... probably any need to worry or anything. You know him - hanging out in the woods all the time... I bet he's hearing this right now.

Just, uh. You know. Let me know or something.

What's that supposed to mean? [Challenging. He was in a good mood a second ago. Don't mess with it.]

Nothing at all. I'm just messing with you.

Whatever. [It's a sensitive subject, okay?]

So your buddy answer you yet?

[causeblocked.livejournal.com]

No... not yet.

He's probably... busy.

Maybe. [There's a thoughtful pause.] You ah...wanna drink? I ain't been in a while and I'm frickin' bored as hell.

[Not to mention all the stress they've been under lately. C'mon, you know you wanna. This's Raph trying to cheer you up.]

Plus you still gotta show me you ain't that much of a lightweight.

I... nah. Nah, some other time, maybe.

[Wouldn't do to be out and/or intoxicated if Naoki came back that evening, after all.]

[meanandgreen.livejournal.com]

Yeah, fine. Was thinkin' of going by myself anyways. [Yeah, he gets that. Rain check.]

Anyways. If somethin' goes down, hit me up. All right? I ain't one for owin' people favors.

I'll do that.

Heh... Afraid I might call one in at a bad time?

I just don't like charity.
