[Christmastime alone hits Fujiko a little hard. Not that she'd necessarily want the company even if she was back in her world, but even if she did want to, she can't even make up some sort of extravagant gig or excuse to call up Lupin and check in on him. Which leads her to taking advantage of the new coastline and exploring down in it in the cold and singing Love Squall to herself. Of course, she fidgets a bit too much with the journal so it carries over, complete with the bitter sound of her chucking rocks into the ocean.]

Stupid Lupin. The one time you don't chase me down...

[Raph's not quite coherent with the winter cold making his brain sluggish. He's only half awake, and her singing makes it feel even more like a dream.

He does remember her, though. He'll even put his brains together enough to make some kind of response. He never did tell her he was okay after the bear trap thing, after all.]

I'm guessin' you ain't exactly safe to chase.

[A small startled pause and freezes up inching for the guns, but places the voice and shrugs it off.] No, I suppose I'm not. [Grins.] But if I was, I doubt I'd interest anyone much, mm?

Are you all right out there?

[He ignores the last question. She's still not to be trusted in his book, and he's definitely not eager to show any kind of weakness.]

Just wanted to tell ya the bear trap thing healed up fine.

Oh really? [A little hesitant since she guessed that from when he was a child, but since he'd seemed so scared then, she didn't want to make it any worse.]

I'm relieved to hear that then. It's been awhile. Shy turtle, mm?

I ain't shy.

[Though he doesn't really know what he is, if not shy. Antisocial's more like it.]

Just had other stuff goin' on.

Hm~ That does seem to happen a lot around here.

All safe and sound now though I take it?

Yeah. Still surprised the place ain't blowin' up 'cause of Christmas. Might actually have a holiday in peace.

[A quiet laugh.]

That'd be a first for me.

But enjoy it while it lasts then Raphael~ In case they decide to blow things up for New Years, yes?

Yeah, me too, I guess. I'm countin' my blessings.

Hah... positive thinking.

Too bad it's not my style.

Not mine either. I'm tryin' it out for a change.

Is it any good?

Eh. So so. Better than bein' completely miserable.

I guess it kind of works then, but isn't it just setting up to have expectations crushed?

Probably.

Sounds... painful.

It's the holidays. I ain't gonna sit around feelin' sorry for myself just 'cause I'm afraid of gettin' disappointed.

[A small pause.]

Che... I'll save it for New Years.

[He just grunts. She can do whatever she wants. He doesn't care.]

Hope it works out for you Raphael~

Yeah, sure. [He wishes she'd quit saying his name all flirty like that. It's weird, and it makes him feel weird.] Thanks.

Something wrong?

[Dammit, woman.] No.

Are you sure?

[A small tinkling bell-like laugh.] I suppose you'd rather be left alone then.

Yeah, whatever. Happy holidays and all of that.
