Look at it this way, I'm much more useful to you now than I was before~."[/color] Akiko's words began to sew themselves into the world around her, almost like she was leaving an impact herself.

[color=hotpink]"No worries, my friend. We'll reunite you with your other half soon enough."[/color] Akiko grinned, looking all around the floor for a moment before her gaze settled back on Kanbaru. [color=hotpink]"Oh, are you referring to Nephetos? I'm not scared of your..."[/color] She paused, making a so-so motion in her hand. [color=hotpink]"Puppy-dog-threats, bluey, and I'm sure Lorelai would love to mount your head on a wall. Alas, we've got other things to consider here, so we're to do what we need and move from this floor to the next, yes?"[/color]

She straightened her suit slightly. [color=hotpink]"You tell me what I can't see, I tell you what I can. We figure out a plan from there."[/color] The annoyance in the air was palpable and persistent, like a faulty sauna. To any, it was evident that Akiko was a little done with Kanbaru's act.

The cat looked at her remaining cat card and stared at it. [i][color=hotpink]"I don't suppose you'd be willing to tell me how we can get along, become one permanently within this hellhole of a Tower?"[/color][/i]
