[There are two options as Fujiko just gets back.
A) She's unconscious in the snow. All told, for a Mallynapping, she doesn't look too worse for the wear, no obvious injuries, cuts, or bruises, her hair doesn't even look off. Still, she's unconscious and vulnerable isn't something the woman likes to be.
B) After all that, she makes a journal post. A very very loud journal post. Happy Valentine's Day everyone!]
LUPIN!!! Damn it, if you're going to completely demolish someone's security system the least you could do is put it back together when you're done! You left my apartment wide open! And don't lie, I know it was you!
[And then anyone trained with guns would hear the unmistakable click as she cocks one at the journal purposely threatening in a deadly dark voice.]
I have ammunition, I'm not afraid to use it.
[And then just like that, as if she hadn't screamed and threatened to shoot her not!boyfriend, Fujiko's voice goes back to cute!mode wherein she clearly wants something.] I'm going out for drinks later, anyone care to join me~?
[Drinks that are normally shared with Lupin on Valentine's Day, it should be noted. Oh yeah, she's in a mood.]
Oh! And Happy Valentine's Day everyone! I can't believe they made me almost miss it! What's everyone's favorite candy? Anyone want to play a game with those little hearts with messages? Better than eating them, right?

...I've been watching you Bond films. I wanted to marathon them recently.
[voice]
Without me.
It didn't occur to you to get your own? [Tsun. TSUUUN. NEEDS MORE TSUN. No wait, that's good.]
[voice]
...I missed you...
[voice]
It wasn't like I chose to leave. Idiot.
[She's not going to say she missed him too, but she did.]
[voice]
[He passes a beat in silence, pondering the possibilities.] Are you all in one piece? No wierd things? Pops..was kind of a were-yeti recently because of our....benefactors.
Where are you right now?
[voice]
I'm fine Lupin. [She assumes. Everyone else seems weird, but that's how it was last time for her.]
I'm at my place. Trying to fix the traps you took down. [Huff.]
[voice]
[He huffs too, though he's amused. It was the same old game as always, but it was always fun to play it.] I had my reasons for not putting them back up you know.
...I'll be up soon.
[voice]
[voice---> action]
[He closes the journal at this, intent on leaving it behind in his room as he makes his visit--there was no need for unwanted espionage, after all. With a bottle of wine in tow he steadily makes his way up to her room, avoiding sudden movements and further jostling. This wasn't 'resting' per se...but it needed to be done.
No choice. He wouldn't have it a different way.
He lets himself in without a knock and leans against the wall. Where were her traps now? It was best not to risk it.]
Knock knock, Fujiko-chan! In the mood for some drinks?
[action]
Come on in darling. [Holds the door open and gestures to the room. Don't worry Lupin, she hasn't put all the traps yet. The couch is safe. Just don't go near the bed. It should also be noted, she's not wearing a catsuit for a change, instead she's got on jeans, black shirt and a red choker scarf. Maybe Lupin's not the only one with something to hide.]
[action]
He smiles, though.] Gladly. We've lost time to make up for! [He's not going to comment on the door, though it's not entirely his fault if she notices a certain barely consealed stiffness to his motions as he delicately lifts a pair of glasses and brings them over with him to enjoy the wine once they settle in.]
Hope you don't mind the Zinfandel; it was the best I had in there at the moment.
[action]
So... what's happened? Tell me everything. Except anyone you slept with. [Makes a disgusted face, but seriously don't tell her that unless you wish them death. Unless they are male and/or not human in which case; spill all the juicy details.] I must have missed a Shift right? Gone that long... [Huffs again. So many shinies she could have taken in that time ;;]
[action]
[He always is. Lupin smiles at that comment about sleeping with people-- of course she would ask that!] You don't need to worry about me sleeping with anyone here, Fujiko. They all either want to lecture me, or they are so not my type! [They get along too well...}
And no Shifts, but people are worried about..uh, today, actually. [He had to admit, though, that he was kinda liking that guy he met in Good Spirits the other day...]
[action]
The Malnosso go big around the holidays. [Waves a hand. REALLY big. But like hell she will ever tell him about Jack Horner and Val and... anything else ever.]
You've been lectured? [Oh oh so amused. Tell more.]
[action]
It's all cleaned up now, if you want to see it. I got my own--fifth level. [just below Daisy...
Her freezing up was concerning, but that was also Fujiko for you. Always on her guard, regardless of who she was around.]
...do I really want to know how big they can get for the holidays?
[action]
[Holds her hands out.] Big big. Sometimes it's fun. Sometimes it's just plain bizarre. [This coming from Fujiko, the same Fujiko who didn't bat an eye at dragons, mermaids, and nazis despite it being decades/centuries past their time. The same Fujiko who had her yin and yang selves split in half. Yeah, that Fujiko. So bizarre to Fujiko must be pretty out there....]
[action]
Oh god, don't make me laugh! Not right now~ [Whining, he pulls her closer. Sometimes just a touch is enough...]
Yeah, it happened unexpectedly. Goofed on making smoke bombs. Who'da thunk, right?
...I'll be on my guard this week then. Hopefully its not bizaare. [Coming from a woman who accidentally seduced Nessie? It must be bizaare indeed!]
[action]
Annnd... why can't you laugh? [All that suspicion just got amped to eleven buddy.]
I don't think you can avoid this one. No matter how much you stay on your guard. Just go with it. [Shrugs and sips the wine.] It makes it easier when it's all over.
[action]
Turns out that Chief Petty Officer SPARTAN-023, who is easier to call Daisy and should just call herself that, is on the floor above me. We...didn't get on well immediately. Broke a few ribs.
[That was the short version. Simpler that way.]
...I'll remember that advice this week, then. Thanks.
[action]
One of those girls who aren't your type? Did she break your ribs? [Because then Fujiko would go talk to her. Only Fujiko gets to break Lupin's ribs... wait... broke?! That's really serious! And watch as she doesn't even take time to switch gears; just is suddenly there and up against him being cute and snuggly and oh-so concerned.]
Awww... Poor baby. No wonder you couldn't deal with the traps. Shouldn't you be resting? [Undoes the buttons on his jacket and shirt to take a look at the injuries.]
[action]
[He starts to sigh and explain, but catches his breath when Fujiko leans on him, both out of added pain and his heart fluttering in anticipation. She...had her ways.]
My doctor would agree with you...but I don't think this is going to be very restful.
[action]
I met her. What did you tell her about me anyway?
How did you break them then? [Folds arms across her chest. This answer better be good.]
[action]
I gave as good as I got though. Mostly.
[He lifts his brows, curious.] You've met Dellie? [Yes. He gave her a nickname.] I didn't tell her much, just that you were missing and that we've seen eachother. [That you're the one woman for me, that you'd stab me in the back only to later save my life.]
At least, nothing that she hasn't already heard or can't figure out.
[action] 1/2
Next time tell him, there's a perfectly good battledome and if he wants to engage in sadomasochism so desperately, he should get a girlfriend.
[Sipping that wine again and gaging Lupin's reaction.]
[action]
Yes, well, she thinks you're an idiot, I told her this was correct. [... Something like that.] I also said I'd try to make sure you didn't die from wandering around like a lunatic. So no high-wires until you can breathe again. I don't want to have to babysit you. [She's such a liar.]
