peeks into the kitchen and sees Kaoko still at the kitchen counter, still smoking her cigarettes
latest #80
Chrome asks
16 years ago
if Kyouya and Kusakabe went out already.
Kaoko Hibari says
16 years ago
"Ah." she looks up and blinks owlishly. "Yeah, they left about thirty minutes ago."
Chrome says
16 years ago
"oh." and flops down on a chair beside her. "... busy day?" she nods towards all the papers strewn on the countertop

"Well, I suppose you could say it was, although my usual definition of "busy" means fighting." she chuckles.
Kaoko Hibari says
16 years ago
Paperwork's the thing I hate the most about this sort of job.
Chrome says
16 years ago
I didn't know there was paperwork at all. How do you write a report on how you, um, took care of a rival group, and all that?
Kaoko Hibari says
16 years ago
Well, in the case of the Vongole, you have to outline all the details.
Kaoko Hibari says
16 years ago
How you killed him, where you killed him, how long it took you, whether you got hurt in the process and if anyone saw you.
Kaoko Hibari says
16 years ago
They pay you using a point system based on how well you did, by their judgment.
Chrome is
16 years ago
surprised that all that needs to be detailed. And that a point system exists for kills.
Chrome says
16 years ago
so it just won't do if you simply kill your target, but you have to do it in a way that... would get you paid well and ranked well too?
Kaoko Hibari says
16 years ago
Yep. That's how you separate the dregs from the pros.
Chrome is
16 years ago
nodding and thinking over that particular piece of information.
Kaoko Hibari says
16 years ago
Squalo will probably explain the Varia's standards to you when it occurs for him to do so.
Chrome wonders
16 years ago
what Kaoko's rank is withink the mafia world
kkusakabe
16 years ago
steps in at that moment, announcing his intrusion politely and bowing to both of them.
Chrome says
16 years ago
ah, good evening, Kusakabe-san. Kyouya-san is...?
kkusakabe says
16 years ago
He went to see Cavallone-san in the hotel. o_o
Kaoko Hibari says
16 years ago
...Hum. I guess that means he might not come home again.
Kaoko Hibari says
16 years ago
Cavallone takes up an awful amount of his time. (s_annoyed)
kkusakabe says
16 years ago
... ^^;
Chrome says
16 years ago
... ah. ^^
kkusakabe asks
16 years ago
Do you need me to do anything for you, Kaoko-san? I am free for the evening. :0
Kaoko Hibari says
16 years ago
Nothing beyond the usual, Tetsu-kun. Thanks.
Kaoko Hibari is
16 years ago
back to working, looking slightly irritated.
kkusakabe says
16 years ago
"Understood, ma'am." he bows, and takes his leave.
Chrome
16 years ago
wanted to ask him if he wanted to just hang out with them, but he was just as quickly out of the room.
Chrome
16 years ago
notices Kaoko's irritation. She eases of her chair and goes to the fridge. "Would you like anything to drink?"
Kaoko Hibari says
16 years ago
Bring out that bottle of Tequiila Rose. I think I'd like some tonight.
Chrome
16 years ago
brings out said bottle, gets two shot glasses from the cupboard and brings it all to the counter table.
Kaoko Hibari
16 years ago
notices the fact that Chrome brought out a glass for herself, and flashes the girl a smile. "You've got taste."
Chrome gives
16 years ago
her an apologetic grin. "... I opened it earlier and took a sniff. It smelled really sweet ^^ And I'd like to taste it."
Kaoko Hibari
16 years ago
chuckles. "Sure~"
Chrome
16 years ago
opened the bottle and carefully poured a measure of the drink in both shot glasses. Chrome hands Kaoko her glass and raises hers in salute
Kaoko Hibari
16 years ago
cheers to her also, and downs her shot in a single go.
Kaoko Hibari says
16 years ago
Kaaaaah. >w<
Kaoko Hibari feels
16 years ago
alive again~
Chrome is
16 years ago
all 0_o at the way the older woman downed her drink. She looks at her own, squares her shoulders, and also downs her drink in one go.
Kaoko Hibari is
16 years ago
already pouring herself a second. "Haaa~"
Chrome feels
16 years ago
that sweetness trace a rather fiery path down her throat and to her stomach.
Chrome says
16 years ago
... haaah! That was... ah, something! >_<"
Chrome thinks
16 years ago
that the alcohol was a bit irritating to her nose, but the sweetness of the drink made it bearable to drink
Kaoko Hibari asks
16 years ago
Is it your first time to try a hard drink?
Chrome
16 years ago
nods. "Ken and Chikusa would give me beer sometimes when they're drinking, but not anything hard."
Chrome is
16 years ago
also pouring herself a second shot already ^^
Kaoko Hibari says
16 years ago
Oho. Well, now that you're living here, you're going to have to learn what to drink.
Kaoko Hibari says
16 years ago
You've got the holding your liquor part down pat by default. :3
Chrome has
16 years ago
had a bit of practice with that. Seeing Ken throw up quite a number of times taught her not to drink so fast ^^;
Kaoko Hibari
16 years ago
leans back, swishing her drink about in its glass. "We'll drag Kyouya in to join us next time we crack another bottle open~"
Chrome
16 years ago
drank her second shot and savored the sweetness of the flavor while trying not to be overwhelmed by the tequila part
Kaoko Hibari
16 years ago
watches the girl with approval.
Chrome
16 years ago
put down the shot glass on the counter with a grin on her face. She's liking this Tequila Rose drink a lot~ ^^
Chrome
16 years ago
reaches for the bottle and pours herself her third!
Kaoko Hibari says
16 years ago
Heh. I wish I could get Kyouya to drink like this.
Chrome asks
16 years ago
He doesn't drink? At all? 0_o
Kaoko Hibari says
16 years ago
Only a little, even though he's got the guts for it.
Kaoko Hibari says
16 years ago
Sans the smoking and the pervert lover, he's a straight-laced kid. For the most part.
Chrome
16 years ago
giggles at the "pervert lover" part. She's a bit tipsy by now >_< "He smokes but doesn't drink. My mother used to say..."
Chrome
16 years ago
pauses at that, frowns, and just knocks down the third shot.
Chrome
16 years ago
*drinks down
Kaoko Hibari is
16 years ago
watching Chrome with some amusement. She's a little surprised that the girl can get tipsy, given her unique physiology.
Chrome says
16 years ago
"... you can't drink if you don't smoke, or vice-versa... or something like that"
Kaoko Hibari
16 years ago
chuckles.
Chrome wonders
16 years ago
why Kaoko was chuckling ._.?
Chrome
16 years ago
while she pours her fourth of the night
Kaoko Hibari
16 years ago
reaches out and takes the girl's glass, finishing it off for her.
Kaoko Hibari says
16 years ago
I think we'll stop there for you, young lady. :-))
Chrome says
16 years ago
Ah? But...
Kaoko Hibari says
16 years ago
Baby steps, baby steps~ :3
Chrome is
16 years ago
all 0__o "Um... okay, Kaoko-san"
Kaoko Hibari
16 years ago
leans back again, breathing out a satisfied sigh. Quiet nights like these are hard to find.
Chrome will
16 years ago
take that sigh as a signal for her to go up to her room. Kaoko-san looked like she had been at those papers the whole day.
Chrome says
16 years ago
Kaoko-san, I'll be going to my room to sleep now. Um... thank you for letting me drink that ^^
Kaoko Hibari asks
16 years ago
Oh, heading up so soon? All right. o_o
Kaoko Hibari says
16 years ago
Sleep well. :-))
Chrome says
16 years ago
... you should rest now too.
Kaoko Hibari says
16 years ago
In a bit~ I'll just finish this batch.
Chrome says
16 years ago
Mm. Okay. Good night, Kaoko-san. Thank you.
Chrome gives
16 years ago
Kaoko-san a bow and heads out of the kitchen.
Chrome
16 years ago
... if Kaoko-san hears some sort of thud moments later, that's just probably Chrome stumbling on the first step of the stairs >_<;
