Dragongirl: back now!

[moderndaydragon]

[The person who stumbles out of the nurse's office now is one that would be hard to mistake, and one that some people might recognize.

Karasu feels... strange. Disorientated. If Lisa is to be believed, then she's lost close to... two weeks' time. But it wasn't like the others, where they seemed to just come back after being sent home for however long. She never went anywhere. It's like she's been in a coma for all that time, except that Lisa even confirmed she wasn't there with her.

So what the hell happened?

Unfortunately, despite Lisa's best attempts, Karasu's somewhat distracted state has left her leaving without something very important. Namely, her shirt, meaning that everyone she stumbles past is getting an interesting view.

Or everyone she stumbles into.]

Ah, sorry!

[Teaching Bakura magic's been both entertaining and annoying as hell. Kai keeps questioning what he was thinking. There are plenty of other ways of distracting himself around here, most of them not dangerous or insanity-inducing. He's actually deep in thought mulling over a few when he collides with someone.

Light damn it.]

Hey, would you watch where you're-

[And the sharpness dies right there because...]

Karasu?

[She's here, she's back, she's here and solid and not wearing a shirt. Welp, two choices. Blush and jump away from her, or blush and hug her like she might disappear again any second. Easy choice!]

[moderndaydragon]

I didn't mean --

[And then she realizes who's she's smacked into and smiles brightly, laughing as she hugs him back a little.]

Hi, Kai.

[shadowscall]

[She's hugging him back and not freaking out oh Light this is the best day ever. Kai laughs too, giving her another squeeze before realizing she'd probably like to breathe...and she's still not wearing a shirt.

Uh.

Just letting go and taking a step or two back now...and then another forward to grab her hand.]

My fault, totally, where have you been?

[moderndaydragon]

[She feels more dazed about the lost time than her fear of Kai, and, well... she's just so happy to see him again with that in mind that the fear's been buried for now.]

I... don't know. Unconscious. Somewhere. Not here, not home.

[shadowscall]

We've been so worried. [The 'we' being him and Bakura, which she'll probably end up asking about...though he's sure the Creeper would deny the hell out of it. Kai looks her over again and clears his throat. Oh boy.]

At least you're okay. Uh, here.

[And she totally gets his blue hoodie once he tugs it off.]

You need it more than me, at least I've got a shirt, um.

[moderndaydragon]

Sorry to have worried you.

[...Oh. Well. Karasu laughs a little quietly, pulling the hoodie on.]

I'm just glad I actually woke up. Who's "we?"

[shadowscall]

Don't be, wasn't your fault.

[He shifts a little uncomfortably, wanting to reach out for her hand again, yet not sure if he should. He settles for cramming a hand in his pocket, running the other back through his hair.]

Me and Bakura. We've been sorta...hanging out.

[Oh Light that sounds so weird, what the hell.]

I've been helping him with magic.

[That sounds even worse.]

[moderndaydragon]

Ah... you two are getting along now? That's good, at least.

[She smiles a little, not quite swaying but still definitely looking a bit lost. Ug... why had this happened this time?]

I'm glad Bakura's still here, too.

[shadowscall]

It's...I guess?

[Is that what it is? It started out as a distraction, it's not actually like they're friends. Kai frowns, reaching out to take her arm gently.]

You want to go back to your room? Mine's closer, or-

[How can he still be so awkward with her?]

So was I. [Kai flushes again, shrugging. What a thing to admit.] When I couldn't find you, I freaked out and went to tell him. I think I was half-expecting...It doesn't matter.

[stealshinies]

[Hey, boobs. Bakura places a hand on Karasu's head to stop her in her tracks, and he stares a moment before grinning.]

H-heh heh, well look who it is... [Karasu, you're going to hate what he's done to the dorm while you were gone.]

[moderndaydragon]

[Wha hey why is she suddenly being --

-- oh.]

Hello, Thief King.

[She's not nearly as happy to see him as she might be others, but after so long as his roommate, he's grown on her.]

[stealshinies]

I thought you disappeared. [He sounds no less amused, dropping his hand and gesturing with it.]

But it looks like you were just running around topless.

[moderndaydragon]

No, I did disappear... sort of.

[Topless? Oh, that explained the chill. She just rubs her face a little, though.]

I'm not sure what happened. I didn't go home, but I did seem to leave. It was just into some kind of... void. I don't remember any of what happened, so to me, it's just lost time again.

[stealshinies]

[He raises an eyebrow.]

Hoh? You probably just walked into one of those magic rooms, then.

[Bakura lifts his hands in a careless shrug.] Or maybe you're actually dying, and this is how your life chooses to flash before your eyes.

[moderndaydragon]

[...You're still a jerk.]

I really hope it's not the latter. I don't exactly want to die.

[stealshinies]

Nobody does! But it's just something that happens, isn't it? H-heh heh.

[He pats her condescendingly.] Don't worry, you look pretty alive to me.

[fluffydeathdealer]

[The Ring points it out before he'd notice, and he heads there curiously. Gone, but then returned? What madness was this?

Either way, he appreciates it.

That's why, when the topless girl runs right into him, he doesn't bother with sappiness. He just grasps her by the forearms to support her, gives her an amused smile and comments-]

Yo, Karasu~ I know you must have missed me, but being so desperate to come see me that you forget your shirt is a bit much, isn't it?

Unless you were planning on giving me a treat?

[moderndaydragon]

[Whoa, hey, suddenly she's being supported --

-- and she knows that voice. Smile!]

Bakura!

[...and then the teasing sets in.]

You wish! [Light bap.] I guess I just... felt so lost I didn't remember to pull it on. That explains why Lisa was yelling at me...

[fluffydeathdealer]

[Heh. Cute. He makes a tsking sound with his tongue, before swinging his coat off melodramatically and wrapping it over her shoulders. It settles about her in a flurry of fabric, making her look even paler against the blackness of it.]

Here. I doubt you want the entire school seeing you like this.

[moderndaydragon]

Thank you.

[She pulls the coat on properly, holding it shut and looking herself over a little. He isn't really that much bigger than her, but it still feels a little oversized.

Oh well. It's comfortable, at least.]

I'm glad to see you again.

[fluffydeathdealer]

[Bakura's expression flickers with annoyance momentarily, though it's not directed at her.]

Welcome back. Was home at least less troublesome?

[moderndaydragon]

Ah...

I don't know. I didn't go home.

[fluffydeathdealer]

What did you say?!

[He stares at her in shock.]

Then where did you go?

[moderndaydragon]

I have no idea. I'm completely missing any time for... almost two weeks, now. I just sort of went into some sort of... oblivion.

[fluffydeathdealer]

But you weren't on the island... So where the hell did they take you?

[That's unnerving.]
