Our slim chance

[omg-abab.livejournal.com]

*not worrying so much about stealth (but mask still on), jogging through the snowy? streets from one place to another. Doesn't know what the red sky etc. means except that she's working on a time table before thing change again, trying not to be afraid*

-----------------------

I have the information. It was difficult to obtain and decipher but I believe a woman named Sheska attempted to create the Philosopher's Stone in march of this year. I have her address. What is our course of action?

*might as well be masked the way she's bundled up with a scarf, sunglasses, and hooded coat (up-weather proofed with her poncho)... thinks she recognizes one of the brave street-travelers* ...Ran Fan?

*stops and drops into a fighting stance with a hand on a kunai before realizing who it is. Eases up immediately, feeling a bit foolish* Clara? Have you seen Ling? I mean, how are you?

*blinks* Um... no, I haven't, and... I've been better.

*again feels a bit rude for not removing the mask when talking with someone she knows well but has grown used to this feeling over the years* I'm sorry to hear that. Please let me know if my services would be of aid. *wanting to add a more personal sentiment but those kind of words have never come easy to her, hoping this doesn't sound too awkward* ... I really mean it.

*blinks again* I... thank you, actually... I hope I won't feel the need to, but I'll keep that in mind. *isn't "unmasking" either... but it is rather cold*

*nod, entirely unsure of what to say but wishing she could help somehow, attempting to make small talk* Thank you again for allowing us to stay in your house when we were last in Central.

*smiles* You're welcome, of course, Ran Fan. It was my pleasure. You and Fu and Ling will always be welcome there.

Thank you. *has run out of things to say but doesn't want to just leave, wishing she could know a bit more what normal people talk about*

*glancing around nervously* If I see Ling, I'll let him know you're looking for him. ...Although if you can't find him, I can't imagine I'm likely to. *mutters something under her breath about "too mysterious for his own good*

*smiling, which is reflected in her voice* Certainly he is not one to make things easy in that regard. It seems I spend more of my time looking for him than is practical.

*grins at her, also apparent in her voice* ...Maybe you shoud put a bell on him.

*blowing some air out her nose in humor* It certainly would stop him from leaving a restaurant before paying the check.

*makes a face behind her scarf* Oh dear, does he do that often?
