Love is an Open Casket!

[Anna actually grinned, raising a brow curiously and reaching up to boop his nose. Boop.]

[Nose wrinkled at the boop. But he wasn’t really smiling. More annoyed than anything.]

Hm. I somehow disagree. I don't smell a thing.

[His eyes narrowed to slits but he lessened up on the bite. Not about to draw blood on her precious neck just yet.]

[Anna actually grinned, raising a brow curiously and reaching up to boop his nose. Boop.]

[His eyes narrowed to slits but he lessened up on the bite. Not about to draw blood on her precious neck just yet.]

[She trailed her fingers down the edge of his jacket, up underneath it, to roll her hands over his sides with slightly less of a barrier.]

[He’d been watching the fire burn in the fireplace for some time now. Getting increasingly more agitated as time past. Where was she? Did he need to go after her? But then the sound of the door opening and the clink of jewelry and then her voice was enough to let him know she was there.

[There was a self-satisfied smile on her lips as her eyes closed and her arms wrapped around him, in turn. She was glad to have him to come back to- he was always very happy to see her. Quite like a loyal dog. But when his kiss became a bite she knew she had to be cautious about this.]

*Fujiko returned the smile, her own posture a bit more relaxed, if a bit put-on.*

[Anna's gaze becomes bored and more than a little tired. She shakes her left arm and quite a few sparkling diamond tennis bracelets slip out from under her coat. Wordlessly, she plucks two off and holds them out.]

[Lupin was a little startled by the question. But he didn’t show it. He set his drink down and licked over his lips in thought.]

Holiday? How nice. Maybe we could do something interesting about town- I mean, I'd be just as amiable to seeing your place. Either way, I do love your company so far.

[Lupin took the offered card, looking it over curiously before putting it away and returning to his coffee.]

[She shrugged and fidgeted for a moment in her seat- then took a drink again.]

*Fujiko generally isn’t a huge fan of taking offers to meet people in alleyways, regardless of their supposed intent to “talk it out”. But it’s either that or lose the loot, and show a bit of cowardice to boot.

Evening.

*Well it’s a lucky thing Fujiko isn’t from Newark, isn’t it? Not that she actually knew much about the woman she was tailing—only that she was of enough interest for people to pay Fujiko to do it. The rest is mostly irrelevant as far as she’s concerned.

[Time to think about her options.
