[monkeyseemonkeydoom]

[sharply attentive]

...Do you want to meet up?

Re: Shoreleave times, idk Day 255

[damedana]

... yeah. Is there some place you'd rather?

Re: Shoreleave times, idk Day 255

[monkeyseemonkeydoom]

I'm fine to go wherever, or you could drop by my apartment if you want.

Re: Shoreleave times, idk Day 255

[damedana]

Uh. Is that okay?

Re: Shoreleave times, idk Day 255

[monkeyseemonkeydoom]

Sure. I'll text you the address. Can you get over here okay?

Re: Shoreleave times, idk Day 255

[damedana]

Ah, yeah. I should be able to. I'm just over near HaZE...

Re: Shoreleave times, idk Day 255

[monkeyseemonkeydoom]

I'm near downtown, so that shouldn't be so bad. But let me know if you need a ride.

Re: Shoreleave times, idk Day 255

[damedana]

No problem!

I'll see you in a bit!

Re: Shoreleave times, idk Day 255

[monkeyseemonkeydoom]

Cool. See you soon.

[will take the time to tidy up, lock away the explosives he's been tinkering with, and get a kettle going for some tea]

Re: Shoreleave times, idk Day 255

[damedana]

[gonna take a bit to get across town! but then there's a knock knock on the door]

Re: Shoreleave times, idk Day 255

[monkeyseemonkeydoom]

[the monkey opens the door, but Flamingo calls out:]

Come on in!

Re: Shoreleave times, idk Day 255

[damedana]

[oh hi monkey!

making sure the door's closed once he's in and... taking off his shoes.]

Sorry for the intrusion, thanks for making the time!

[as if he's not the one who's the workaholic here.]

Re: Shoreleave times, idk Day 255

[monkeyseemonkeydoom]

It's all good. You caught me in some down time, actually. Can I get you anything to drink? I've got coffee, tea, and beer.

Re: Shoreleave times, idk Day 255

[damedana]

Tea.

... probably beer, later.

Re: Shoreleave times, idk Day 255

[monkeyseemonkeydoom]

Got it. Make yourself at home.

[He lives in a loft apartment full of weird circus shit, but it's organized enough and there's a couch. He heads over to the kitchen and tosses a couple cheapo green tea bags into mugs.]

Re: Shoreleave times, idk Day 255

[damedana]

[he's going to pick up some colorful scarves tied together or something clownish laying around.]

--when we first saw each other here, you called me "Dante", right?

Re: Shoreleave times, idk Day 255

[monkeyseemonkeydoom]

I did, yes.

[brings the mugs over]

Re: Shoreleave times, idk Day 255

[damedana]

... I didn't... know what to think about that, but then someone on Cirrus Network also said it, too.

[frowns into his cup.]

One of the visions I got... it was me, a kid, being made to use my blessing over and over while some family members commented about limits and advantages and things like that. I ended up passing out at the end.

Do you... know anything about that? [searching for the right question because wait, this all sounds so sudden and dumb?] Or... how did you know "Dante", exactly?

Re: Shoreleave times, idk Day 255

[monkeyseemonkeydoom]

Our families did business together.

Re: Shoreleave times, idk Day 255

[damedana]

[brow furrowing.]

So, you... know my family... but you haven't said anything to them about possibly finding me?

Re: Shoreleave times, idk Day 255

[monkeyseemonkeydoom]

Nah. It's not like they'd care any more than they did when you went missing in the first place.

[sips his tea]

Re: Shoreleave times, idk Day 255

[damedana]

[........... oh.

somehow was not expecting that.]

--what?

Re: Shoreleave times, idk Day 255

[monkeyseemonkeydoom]

They didn't care. They didn't care to such a shameless and repulsive degree that I was certain they'd had you killed.

Re: Shoreleave times, idk Day 255

[damedana]

[... opens mouth, closes it.

hearing this after the other memories--the Ushiromiyas... I mean, compared to that...?]

So... I'm going to remember all that. And probably should not. Let them know I'm alive.

Re: Shoreleave times, idk Day 255

[monkeyseemonkeydoom]

No, probably not.

At least, not yet. Not without a plan.
