Another Open Log

[doubleppk]

Who: Fujiko & Lupin (and anyone else if you're really in the mood)
What: Fujiko's 2nd cigarette break for the month and talking to Lupin.
Why: Because there's a lot of unresolved things between them (always will be??)
Where: On top of the sub/near the Vongola decks.
When: Some time this week after Lupin heals a lot more and Fujiko returns from running away to Havoc. Let's go with the 19th. 21st is her casino heist :3
Rating: PG-13? I'll edit if it goes higher.



Fujiko leaned against the cool metal and focused on the cigarette. Sometime between November and January she'd almost managed to give them up. They reminded her of him and there were some days she couldn't take it. Ironic then that she was sitting there now, smoking one and trying to decide what to do about Lupin. If anything. Really, she was just willing to leave it at nothing. Make Goemon and Zenigata deal with his messes now. Maybe back in her world it would have meant more if he'd shown up like that. She softly sang "Paradise" to herself and lazily watched the clouds and seagulls. It was just a chaotic part of her life she couldn't escape. Maybe that didn't really mean she had to do anything about it specifically. Or maybe she should chase down Robin and offer a heist. When she finished with the casino. She'd been lucky that Lupin hadn't stumbled on those plans yet. Maybe Mat really was as lucky as he said.

"You go ahead of me," she smiled softly. "I've still got some thinking to do before I'll be able to sleep." She almost offered to help him back to his room in case he needed it, but with her luck he'd take that as an invitation to molest her and try to get her to stay in his bed. Besides, she really did have a lot to think on and a half-spent cigarette left to burn.

Lupin clasped his hand, closing his eyes and smiling before turning to leave. "All right. See you later, Fujiko."

He started toward the inside of the Vongola, wondering if Goemon was awake so that he could tell him the 'bad news' of them staying in Fujiko's submarine for a few days. As he nearly reached the door to the inner hall, he paused.

"You know, I meant what I said back when you picked me up."

And he vanished into the corridor with the door shutting softly behind him.

Meant what he said when she picked him up? Well that was sweet of him. And absolutely no help. He said he'd be happy for her if she was in love with someone else. That he would understand. But what good did that do? She wasn't in love with Havoc, she was in love with Lupin. On the other hand, there really could be something with Havoc and with Lupin... How long would they continue repeating the same old mistakes never learning?

She sighed a smokey breath and started singing again softly to herself. Come what may. She couldn't fight fate, maybe it was time to just let the dice fall and run away when they did.
