[Tsuzuki masks the hurt with patient understanding. Hisoka doesn't like to be touched, after all.] Sorry.

Good. Let's hope they never will.

No. It's not you.

There's no reason for them to have any idea he exists.

I shouldn't have pushed.

People here are scared of shinigami. How did they find out about that?

I don't want to talk about it.

..They are? I don't talk much about what I do. Maybe there are other shinigami here that I haven't met?

You don't have to.

I said it once, on accident. What do you say when people ask you, Hisoka?

People don't ask much. I don't volunteer it.

How weird. I get asked. Oh well.

By the way, I was thinking of inviting someone to the house.

It's none of their business what we do. [It helps that he doesn't have substantial conversations with most of the people here.]

Why do you think I'd care? Do what you want.

So do you have any suggestions to what I can say, instead of telling them the truth?

I don't want to do it if it gives you headaches, Hisoka.

When it comes up, I usually just tell them we investigate murders. It's better for the ones who don't speak Japanese.

I've gotten used to it. This isn't exactly a quiet house.

That's a really good suggestion, actually.

It really isn't. Two people playing instruments, Duo and Hijiri are chatty and I doubt I'm quiet. Do you get any sleep at all?

Of course it is. The foreigners all hear "death god" when we talk about Shinigami. It creates too many questions I don't have the patience to answer.

I get enough.

It's not exactly ideal to talk too much about our jobs, anyway. Hijiri knows what we are, that should be enough.

Good.

He knows more than he should have to know, if you ask me.

I am so!

At least he's not going to tell people. [Tilting his head to the side, Tsuzuki reaches out to pull at the book Hisoka brought with him to bed.] What are you reading?

I know, Hisoka.

He already told Duo. It's a Chinese book that details the mythology behind the traditional four legendary spirits. If there's one thing these wings are good for, it's understanding languages.

Duo is his partner, it's normal that he talks with him. The four... Are those the spirits that reminds of Byakko, Suzaku, Seiryuu and Genbu? Is it interesting?

I suppose. That doesn't really make it any better, though. ...And it's not all that stimulating from a narrative standpoint, but it's interesting to see what China has to say about it.

I think it's cute. He obviously trusts him if he told him that. Why did you pick up this title, anyway?

He trusts too easily. Curiosity.

He has no reason to be distrustful of people anymore. That apparently killed a kneazle.

That doesn't mean he should just blindly throw himself at the first person to pay attention to him. A...what?

That's a terrible thing to say about him, 'Soka. I don't know what it is. Draco said it. Apparently it shouldn't be alone with Curiousity.

It's also a true thing. He's been stuck here too long and it's driven him stir-crazy. ...Have you been talking to him?

You've been here a long time, too. Maybe.

[action] true. XD asjdgsjh I so wanted to threadjack you earlier.

[action] what what when?

[action] back when lj ate notifs. I wanted to poke you and Draco-mun.

[action] I always welcome a good threadjack! I'm not sure about Ty but I think she feels the same?

[action] I could ask, I guess. :D Because ooooh. Want.

[action] :D
