Cloudy with a chance of... kittens?

[69pineapples.livejournal.com]

[It was a day with nothing to do, and Mukuro was spending it mingling with the crowd, taking amusement at the differences in tourists and natives in old Rome. It was more comfortable in Italy, really -- the words around him filtered through his mind much more easily than the still slightly awkward Japanese, and there was no pausing to second-guess the meanings of signs and directions. Really, it was such a pain to keep up a smooth appearance when one wasn't entirely sure whether the person giving you orders was telling you that they were happy or spicy.

On another note, the weather was so much milder, warm and balmy, and simply made walking around generally more pleasant. Of course, regardless of the weather, it was never any fun to trip over a box on the side of the street. Quick reflexes kept him from losing his balance, but he felt a spark of irritation as he looked down to kick the box out of the way. Only before he could, he noticed its contents -- five tiny, mewing, squirming kittens.

It was a whim, yes -- but he wondered, if Sawada Tsunayoshi was afraid of dogs, how did he feel about cats? Well, this would be a convenient way to find out. He stooped to close the box, then hefted it into his arms before turning on his heel and heading back in the direction of the base. It'd take awhile to get there, but he could stand the walk.]

Hm. [Just going to ignore Byakuran now. Maybe he'll go away then.]

[semanticedingly.livejournal.com]

[ Tags along! Whistling. ]

[69pineapples.livejournal.com]

[Just... ignoring. D| And carrying kittens. After awhile he hands them off to some little kid that was staring at them.]

[And a half an hour later... he just. stops.]

You seem to have endless patience.

[semanticedingly.livejournal.com]

You've got it all wrong, Mukuro-kun.

[69pineapples.livejournal.com]

Is that so?

[semanticedingly.livejournal.com]

Yup. ♥

[69pineapples.livejournal.com]

How so?

[semanticedingly.livejournal.com]

You should know best. ♪

[69pineapples.livejournal.com]

If you're impatient, why are you still here?

[semanticedingly.livejournal.com]

I never said I was impatient, Mukuro-kun.

[69pineapples.livejournal.com]

You can't follow me forever.

[semanticedingly.livejournal.com]

Of course not, Mukuro-kun. ♥ Have a nice day, now.

[ Is really blinding in the afternoon sun, white suit and all, heading in the other direction. ]

[69pineapples.livejournal.com]

[Does not really trust this. Byakuran just giving up and leaving? How strange... So he'll just watch him leave before he takes a complicated route home.]

[semanticedingly.livejournal.com]

[ Because there will be a dark alley incident, just wait. ]

[69pineapples.livejournal.com]

[...This is why taking back streets is not a good idea? :| WELL he's watching out for that sort of incident, you know!]

[semanticedingly.livejournal.com]

[ ...yes, well. You should be, because Byakuran's strolling through one right now. ]

[69pineapples.livejournal.com]

[:| It is a big fucking city, WHY ARE YOU APPEARING IN FRONT OF HIM AGAIN. Or such is Mukuro's initial thought upon turning a corner to take a shortcut in a much more quiet and frankly less savory part of town, only to end up about two feet from Byakuran's face.]

[semanticedingly.livejournal.com]

[ Because they have a ~*~magnetic~*~ attraction to one another? But oh, hello Mukuro. ]

Why, hello again!

[69pineapples.livejournal.com]

[More like because Byakuran has some sort of stalker radar. :|]

My, isn't this unexpected? I'd almost think you were trying.

[semanticedingly.livejournal.com]

[ Why would he stalk you, Tsuna's cuter. ]

Mukuro-kun, you flatter yourself. ♥ Isn't it you who's trying to run into me?

[69pineapples.livejournal.com]

[Because it's MY job to stalk Tsuna, obviously.]

I'm afraid not~

[semanticedingly.livejournal.com]

[ He's gay enough to take over, though. ]

It's not a good idea to walk around here on your own, you know.

[69pineapples.livejournal.com]

[Mukuro won't relinquish his favorite pastime to a loser like Byakuran! >:[ ]

Hm? I'd be more concerned for anyone who tried to assault me, wouldn't you?
