Lewin Waves After Fujimoto Before Getting Up, Dusting Off His Poncho. Man, He Wonders What Other Adventures

Lewin waves after Fujimoto before getting up, dusting off his poncho. Man, he wonders what other adventures little-him had. Probably some great ones! But it's time to return to his office and catch up on some lost work.

"You better!"

He's had enough of this nonsense too. Lewin's been found, he's not dead or injured, so Shiro's (grumpily) returning to the dorm for a much needed and well earned nap.

LOUD SQUINTING

"Oh so they are yours!"

Bailley isn't intimidating. Actually, it feels rather regular American town for Lewin, but none the less he has spotted a few peculiarities going on. Like a Hinobi van racing down the street. Neither does the Hinobi store seem like all that much when Lightning steps through the doors, buckethat and poncho making him stand out.

He has made sure that this is a day when Mitch is working and he's happy to find his intel was right. So he heads to the console section and picks up a handheld Hinobi console and a couple of games. That oughta do it. Making sure there's no one in line or going to pay soon, Lewin marches over to the cashier.

"Howdy, sir," he greets the 'stranger' by the desk, grin on his face. "Wondering if ya have a converter for this thing, I'm gonna be using it in Japan mostly." His purchases are put on the desk, expecting some sort of reaction.

He's here for more than that reason though. If, say, Hinobi is connected to someone else - be it Illuminati or True Cross or a third entity - they may know of Arc Knight Lewin Light. By showing up here, snooping around, he's painting a nice little target on himself which could help prove some theories.

Lewin laughs from his place on the ground. It sounds like Fujimoto had quite the night which perhaps isn't surprising. Lightning has always been a handful according to Osceola, and the fact that the grey demon changed him into one must have been a surprise.

"Thank you for looking after me, mom," he grins to Shiro, bringing up his hands to form a heart shape with his fingers. "I wuv u~"

He's beginning to realize that, but still fights it anyway out of principle. He is, after all, a fumbling father and not a super powered mom who can do it all without breaking a sweat. "I didn't deserve it either!

"And I wanted to be sure of your safety." He huffs in annoyance, knowing well enough that the sylphs offered just that for Lewin but Shiro still felt agitated anyway. Such low level demons could be easily thwarted by anything the Illuminati might bring out if and when they showed up again to snatch someone - like a young Lewin. "Clearly they had you covered last night though, so I'll let it go." With an angry pout.

The evening sun cast a golden glow over the academy grounds, but Shura hardly noticed. She leaned back in her chair, feet propped up on the desk in her makeshift office, a half-empty bottle of sake clutched loosely in one hand. The day had been long, even by her standards, and she could feel the familiar itch of restlessness creeping in. "Man, paperwork is a pain in the ass," she muttered to no one in particular, eyes flicking toward the scattered piles of unfinished forms that were threatening to spill off her desk. She sighed, taking a swig from the bottle, the burn of alcohol doing little to ease her mood. Just then, she heard the sound of footsteps approaching her door. Instinctively, her hand shifted toward the hilt of her sword, her eyes narrowing slightly. "If this is another lecture from Mephisto, I'm gonna lose it," she grumbled under her breath. The door creaked open, and Shura cocked her head lazily toward the entrance. "Well, come on in, then. Hope yer not here to add to my workload," she called out, her tone somewhere between playful and dangerous, her sharp eyes locking onto whoever dared to disturb her peace.

She would see a familiar bucket hat appearing in the half open door before Lewin poked his head through the opening, looking to her. His ever-observant eyes immediately caught the hand resting on her sword and he gave her a wide grin.

"Ay, don't chop my head off!" he laughed, quickly stepping through the rest of the way. "I come in peace. Just wanted to see if ya wanted to go to the bar." A glance at what was in her hand had him continue. "But I see you already started."

Lightning walked over, plopping down in an empty chair on the other side of the desk and held out his hand in a hope that she'd share the sake. He had come all this way after all!

"Oh, SHUSH! You frikkin brat."

The theatrics continues. "See the abuse I have to live through! All I ever did was love you, mom!"
