four bites

[ It's in the early hours of the morning when this post shows up on the network--as the dim light on the video feed attests. In fact, it's shortly before dawn. The redheaded teenage girl glaring bitterly down into the communicator looks like she's wide awake and angry as ever, though. ]

Man, you got any idea how tough this is? It's such a pain!

[ She waves the device, and the image on the screen blurs wildly. The picture jumps along a deserted side street, briefly settles on an ATM in the side of a small bank, and then returns to her face. ]

Trying to bust open this thing with no weapon and no super-strength...

[ Actually, she looks almost like she might cry. ]

It's stupid! It sucks!

[ THUNK. ]

Ow! Even kicking it does no good! But look, I gotta do something. It's not as if the 'Porter's stupid allowance is enough. The best snacks are all from Japan and those cost extra here. So, someone gotta lend me...huh, how about a pipe? A big metal pipe.

That'd do it.

Hey, I know this might be a revolutionary idea, so bear with me here. Maybe hold onto something in order to brace your limited human psyche for this great boon of groundbreaking wisdom I'm about to impart on you, just out of the goodness of my heart.

Have you tried stealing the actual food? You know, the stuff that isn't locked up in a fucking safe.

What the--?!

You're an idiot, y'know? There's nothing convenient about stealing a few boxes of Pocky.

And kicking a giant metal box and blubbering to the network about it is your idea of convenient?

SHUT UP!

[ And there she goes sounding like she's about to cry again. ]

I'm glad you're alive. [a pause] even if you are incompetent and need my help.

I wasn't alive, you know! So show some respect. You're supposed to respect the dead. That's how it goes.

I know. I watched the fight. Besides, you aren't dead anymore so I don't have to respect you!

You watched--?!

[ She doesn't know, yet, that it was put up online. ]

I'll kill you for not doing anything to stop it! You're a witch-boy, you gotta have some thing you coulda done!

They have cameras, you know. You wouldn't get away with it.

What are you, a total idiot? I smashed the camera first thing.

Wait...

Uh, I think I smashed it.

Edited 2012-11-23 01:31 (UTC)

You think.

Usually it's easy!

...uh! Crap!

[ there appears to be nobody on the screen

it's just a plate with three taiyaki on it, sitting on a bench in the park. There's also an address on paper.

The only hint to the person behind the video feed is a small flower drawn in the corner of the paper. ]

[ Kyouko stares bitterly at the screen for a long moment. ]

...you're stupid. That's totally a trap.

It's going to go to waste if you don't eat it. I made them for you. I know they're your favourite.

I won't be around, okay? I promise. [ if she was baiting a trap, she'd be more subtle - not something she's wonderful at - but she has to gain Kyoko's trust. And that means respecting her space. ]

[ No response, but behind the communicator Kyouko's balling her fists up in frustration and glaring, and eventually she'll give up and go after the taiyaki, because the thought of them going to waste is just too awful. ]

[ Oh, god. She swallows a little heavily. ]

I could get you something.

...I can't!

I can't. Take anything from you.

I --

Yeah, I mean, I get that, but I really. I'd like to. Do something for you, if I can.
