[07. anyone seen that short blond kid?]

[sweetdeath]

...So we're heading into October. Is it just me, or was the last curse pretty topical? People turning into monsters; sounds like Halloween to me.

On the plus side, caramel apples and pumpkin-filled bread.

What happened last October? We're not heading for ghosts and witches or anything, I hope.

[locked to Tatsumi, Watari, Riko and Hisoka]

Have any of you seen Hisoka recently?

And do you know how to take care of a lionfish? I think that spiky thing it's doing with its fins means that it's hungry.

Last October.. I suggest not dressing up for Halloween, for starters.

[cinnagami.livejournal.com]

Now that sounds ominous.

What, did costumes come to life or something?

[means-businss.livejournal.com]

In a manner of speaking. .. you became your costume.

[cinnagami.livejournal.com]

...Physically, mentally or both?

[means-businss.livejournal.com]

Both.

[cinnagami.livejournal.com]

No wearing costumes, check.

Anything else?

[means-businss.livejournal.com]

.. I cannot speak for the whole month, though there were also witch hunts and paranoia.

.... Kurosaki-kun hasn't been home?

[cinnagami.livejournal.com]

Not since sometime yesterday. I sent out some bird shikigami looking for him, but... nothing.

... Have you yet checked the Hall of the Missing?

[cinnagami.livejournal.com]

I thought I'd see if anyone knew first.

...Might as well give it a look, huh?

[same filter]

[kageseii.livejournal.com]

It'd be the second time if he's gone.

Are you okay, Tsuzuki-san?

[same filter]

[cinnagami.livejournal.com]

It's probably safer for him back home at the moment.

...where's that hall exactly?

[notrlyjesus.livejournal.com]

...we had a witch hunt curse last October. I'm really hoping we avoid that this time.

[cinnagami.livejournal.com]

Witch hunts?!

...Yeah, I hope we skip that one, too. How historically accurate are we talking, here?

[notrlyjesus.livejournal.com]

Some citizens got cursed to hunt down others, call them witches, then burn them at the stake.

It was pretty creepy and awful.

[cinnagami.livejournal.com]

Well at least it wasn't the Inquisition. You should see some of the records from that.

Not exactly something I'd like to see happen again here, though.

[notrlyjesus.livejournal.com]

That's ok. I'll pass. It'd probably make me sick. Knowing it happened is bad enough.

Same. We'll just have to see, but this month has me worried.

[cinnagami.livejournal.com]

I'll tell you, it cured me of curiosity about the dustier bits of the library. Not that I'm even allowed IN it anymore.

I guess there's nothing to do but keep alert.

...amigo! Hisoka is gone. riko riko

[same filter]

[cinnagami.livejournal.com]

So you can't sense him anywhere in the City, then?

Well, he's at home, then. Maybe he'll be back sometime soon, hmm?

[same filter] [voice post]

[cacto-ocupado.livejournal.com]

Si.

...Riko is worried, Tsuzuki-amigo. Who will protect Hisoka if you and me are here! Ay! We have to follow him!

[same filter]

[cinnagami.livejournal.com]

Maybe if we find a way out.

I think he's safer at home than here, though, Riko.

[same filter]

[cacto-ocupado.livejournal.com]

Will you look for one, riko riko?

Amigo, I should. This cacto is Hisoka's shiki!

[same filter]

[cinnagami.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I will.

...I know. Want to help me look, Riko?
