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

[He's still talking around pizza in his mouth.] Yeah, it's been hard ta deal with. I mean, I've stayed in one place for a while a few times, but it's been a while. The Malnosso screwin' with us and stuff makes it better. So does changin' houses sometimes. But 's not like we got much of a choice. Gotta adjust to being trapped here 'cause the alternative is going crazy.
no subject
[She takes a deep sigh and fidgets slightly.] I-- I suppose so. Hn... Well I guess if changing houses works.
Hah. At least I don't have to worry about Lupin blowing everything up, the Malnosso do that themselves, hm?
no subject
[Duo laughs a little before his eyes take on a dangerous gleam.] Maybe not him, but I'm sure there's a few people 'round here who'll blow up plenty of stuff. If we gotta good enough reason. The Malnosso'll fix it after though. Hard ta decide if that makes it more fun or not.
no subject
Actually I think the fact that they're forced to fix it does make it more fun. I mean just think of how much money and resources the must have to constantly sink into this place. Might as well make it more of a hassle for them.
no subject
[Duo leans back in his chair and snags another piece of pizza.] Ya know, when you put it that way, I think ya might be right. This place already has ta cost them and arm and a leg. They gotta keep us all clothed and fed and they gotta power that barrier ta keep us in here. Bet it ticks 'em off every time they gotta send out the droids ta fix something we broke.
no subject
Yeah see!? It's like Scorpion. Sure, he could make million dollar traps, but he still had to spend that much every time. After a while, why even get rid of him? It's more fun to frustrate him.
no subject
Wait... traps ta catch a million dollars? Huh, now that's interesting. And you just frustrate the guy by messin' up the traps?
no subject
Nope, he spends millios of dollars on the traps. Not so bright.
no subject
... idiot. You can build perfectly good traps with a lot less money than that. Hell, I can do it with a wrench, welding torch, and some leftover mobile suit parts, car parts, or just 'bout anything's leftover parts.
no subject
Yeah, but those are easy to evade. Well, maybe. I'm not sure what a mobile suit is supposed to be.
no subject
no subject
And it's not that they're successful, but they are good lures.
no subject
He's baitin' the things with some nice stuff? Better be if he's spending that much on it.
no subject
He does have some beautiful toys though. Ferraris and the whole works.
no subject
And I bet a pretty girl can't resist such a pretty and classic car? Maybe they're not such bad traps?
no subject
They're shiny enough to lure someone in, just terrible at killing them afterwards. And it's a ferrari. Who could resist it?
no subject
Ah, so I could get the pretty bait outta the trap. Then probably rig it so he gets caught himself instead. I like this guy. Sounds like he's practically givin' nice stuff away.
no subject
Exactly. He's basically an idiot. [Mumbles] I'd get it out first.
no subject
Sounds like the kinda guy I like to make miserable. What? [Don't mumble. He can't hear you. Though he could read her lips, but it's hard to just focus there when there's so many other pretty places to look.]
no subject
Yeah? World's greatest thief kind of guy? Lupin's got an ego even bigger than his reputation and they both just feed each other.
no subject
World's greatest, huh? Yeah, sounds like someone I'd like to meet and steal the cred chip off of. Sounds like a lotta fun.
no subject
Oh, you can feel free to try. I've had to deal with him far too many times. He's never easy.
no subject
[Duo smirks at her.] Even with a girl like you he's not easy~? Surely you could distract him so much you could strip the guy without him noticing and take him for everything he's got on 'im.
no subject
[Smiles in spite of herself and shoots him a coy, pretending to be demure look.] You flatter me too much~ [That's not a no either.]
no subject
[Duo chuckles. Oh he gets it.] Nonsense. I only tell the truth. I never lie.
