[Rei is sitting in the grass on the grounds, reading. Although she's "highly delusional"--what with thinking she comes from a post-apocalyptic earth and that she fights angels and is the vessel for a super-, proto-being from distant space--she's not considered violent or enough of a threat to be constantly contained.

She is not, however, supposed to be away from the supervision of at least one of the staff when she's outside her room. And since there are no staff to be seen around her, she may or may not be getting into some trouble soon.]

[Rei looks up.]

Zenigata.

[She closes her book, marking her place with one finger.]

I am not qualified. [To be a doctor.]

[flying-cuffs.livejournal.com]

Heh, it looks like I'm not qualified either.

[He puts his hands behind his head.]

I can't believe they are trying to convince us that not only the mansion is a lie, but our whole lives are as well. I didn't live all this time for someone in a white coat turn to me and say I've been 'imagining' things all this time.

[second-first.livejournal.com]

No.

[She looks away, at the grounds.]

It's too much to be a dream.

[flying-cuffs.livejournal.com]

It is indeed too much.

[He sighs, but then grins.]

Heh... If I was imagining things, why would I make things hard for me? If it was all up to my imagination, I would catch that stupid thief in the very first try.

[second-first.livejournal.com]

[She nods. She can relate.]

It will pass.

[flying-cuffs.livejournal.com]

Hope so. If it doesn't... I don't really know what I'll do.

[He really doesn't. he actually feels a little bit of desperation in the back of his mind.]

[second-first.livejournal.com]

Events are that way.

[flying-cuffs.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I guess I'm getting used to it by now.

[He looks down at her.]

Say, you don't talk much, do you? [Zenigata is used to the young girls back home, that just never seemed to stop talking. It was kind of unusual to get in touch with someone so quiet.]

[second-first.livejournal.com]

No. [Sometimes not even enough to actually carry on a conversation.]

[flying-cuffs.livejournal.com]

I guess it's OK.

[He shrugs. Maybe she comes from another place or time where young girls aren't chatter boxes.]

I hope they don't pick on you too much during this whole 'event' thing.

[second-first.livejournal.com]

No. Most don't. [There will always be a few assholes who will pick on anyone, but Rei doesn't tend to be a target.]

[flying-cuffs.livejournal.com]

Good.

[Because picking on young, nice girls is BAAAD, OK?]

Glad they didn't tie you up or anything.

[second-first.livejournal.com]

I am not a threat.

[flying-cuffs.livejournal.com]

I know you aren't, but this place has strange ways...

[If you were a threat, Zenigata could tell. All those years going after crooks gave him a 'sixth sense' for this kind of thing.]

[second-first.livejournal.com]

[She nods slightly. Yes, it does.]
