[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?

Hutler? I...that. That is insane. [Yet, could she expect anything else from a world where Lupin lived, breathed, and did what he did? Not really. An extraordinary man requires an extraordinary world.]

You mean he is not yet the world's most famous thief? Who would that illustrious title belong to?

Yeah pretty much. [This is why Fujiko doesn't tell people in her world anything about her life. But Luceti in general is pretty different with all the superheroes or people running around with nearly as crazy of lifestyles, so in the past year and a half she's gotten used to hiding those things less at least.]

He is... sort of. His grandfather was more famous, for doing it first, you know? [It's hard to fight the past in the future. Fujiko pretty much pities Lupin VIII sometimes.]

I am familiar with the stories, yes. Where I am from they were written by my great grand uncle, though no one knows for certain if there is any truth to them or not. [ Adele shrugs, and steps around a patch of ice.]

I suppose given time he could manage it. But I would rather he not attempt to do so here. There is enough for us to worry about.

Wait... your great grand uncle is Maruice Leblanc? And of course they're real. Mostly, some are embellished, some just leave things out. [Yay for 4th wall break even within her own canon.] I pulled out the full collection here for a fan of the Sherlock Holmes mysteries awhile ago. You'd be amazed how extensive the library is here.

That's like telling Lupin to stop breathing. Although, he's pretty worried about the Malnosso... [Fujiko's just certain that worry only makes him even more tightly wound, unfortunately.]

Oui. The LeBlancs have a long and illustrious reputation as artists of merit. His contribution were the novels. As far as my my world is concerned they are fictional, so if the Lupin family does exist? They are much less dramatic than this Lupin seems to be. [Most thieves were, and she preferred it that way. Stealth meant more care was taken, less work and worry for her in the end. Lupin? Brilliant, bored, going to get her killed.]

I've given up on keeping him still or quiet. We're both attempting to keep out of trouble, but that will not be worth much should they continue their meddling and experiments.

Fair enough. In some worlds some of Shakespeare's stories are real, but he shows up in a lot of worlds, which is kind of strange when you think about it.

They don't exactly stop anymore than Lupin does... [Frowns and bites her lip. She's starting to get the idea that he took something she said offhand way harder than she meant it. And being Fujiko, she will never say she's sorry either. So it's a problem.] You're a doctor, right? Any way you can tell me if I'm suffering some obvious experiment? [Though since Fujiko didn't know her beforehand, she wouldn't know any personality changes and it's not like she's had anything done to her wings or outward physical appearances.]

From what I can see you're fine. You have no bruises, lacerations, nothing looks broken, and you seem to be in your right mind. Anything other than that? I cannot say. Unless you are normally a man, taller, or perhaps once the sun goes down you will turn into some manner of creature or another. [Adele looks back at Fujiko, just to be certain, and continues walking.]

Anything different in your personality? I cannot say.

[Bounds along as if she got a clean bill of health on record.] Only Lupin would be able to notice something like that. [She's another one who plays her cards close to her chest.]

Thanks! I think if I was werewolf, I'd want to keep it, so I'm guess the Malnosso aren't going to be that nice twice.

Whatever it is or isn't, I cannot say. [Ah, and here is the village. After a moment's thought Adele starts to head for Lupin's building. It is where she lived, after all, and the thief would probably be glad to see her.]

[Wanders along, not for the first time thinking about moving again. She'd been in her apartment for nearly a year and a half before Lupin came and count on Zenigata to decide she needed keeping an eye on, and Lupin to follow suit. At least Goemon had given her space.

Pity the the custom security measures, pulleys, and all the rest she'd stashed around the entire top floor of the building would take another year just to add anywhere else she moved. Not to mention, Lupin would probably just follow her and make the plans moot. Maybe she could fake him out...

Fujiko is pretty much horrible company while they walk, for once keeping quiet, too busy plotting a billion things at once, and worrying about several others. Finally she does speak up though, when they're close enough to the building that the Doctor could get away quite easily.]

You said the Leblancs have a long history of artistic talents, does that include you Doctor?

[Adele blinks at the sudden jump back into conversation just as she was about to turn and head back down to Tony's house. She stops mid-stride to turn to Fujiko, puzzled. The woman had been planning, what, she hadn't known, and still doesn't care to. Any woman romantically entangled with Lupin on any level is most likely just as cunning, cagey, and dangerous as he is. As such she's been content to walk in silence, let her think, and lead her home. Now though...

Adele pushes her surprise back and lifts a shoulder.] I have been called an artist with a scalpel on several occasions.

[And how.]

Yeah? You must be good at the field then. [Although admittedly Fujiko was thinking more along the lines of a hobby, but perhaps that was an answer as well.] See you around Doctor. Thanks!

So I am told. Try to keep him...moderately still, will you? [Adeel offers the woman a wave and turns back the way she'd come. Fujiko was Lupin's problem, now.]

I'll mix up some sleeping pills. [Shrugs. Just another normal Valentine's Day for them. ~~orz~~]
