-21st Bullet-

[emperor_cowboy]

[He woke up late that night. Figuring it best not to bother his housemates with his thoughts, the fellow got out of bed and got dressed. He was surprised to find yet another item from home sitting in the driveway earlier in the day. Going outside, he went to overlook the motorcycle to check if it was in fact his own. He paced out in the front yard. He was beyond restless now. So to ease his mind, he did what only came naturally to him.

The fellow went on a walk. To the park. He'll be there until early dawn, when he decides it best to go back to sleep. Hopefully, no one else is awake and roaming around to bother him.]

[Hi I'm late!!]

[There is no such thing as not bothering your housemates when one of them is trained into being a light sleeper. She heard him open the front door, and slid outside after him--not sure who was up until she'd poked her head outside. With Ash acting oddly and a quiet want to protect Crowe after his story when everyone was confessing life secrets, she found herself checking up on any unexpected sounds in the house.]

Is everything all right?

[Hol paused in his tracks and looked over to the source of the all too familiar voice. He frowned for a brief moment before turning to face her.]

I get more 'nd more things from home, I often wonder if that means I'm stuck here to live out the rest of my life.

[snipingmissy.livejournal.com]

I'd hope that isn't the case. A lot of people have gotten things from home recently, myself included.

[She steps onto the porch.]

It could be an attempt to keep us 'cooperative'.

[emperor-cowboy.livejournal.com]

[He seems irritated.]

Yeah? Well I've a right mind t' go and demand to go home already.

[She can sense his mood, and hangs back on the porch.]

It would be nice if that worked, wouldn't it?

[He stood there for a moment and shook his head.]

I was outta line. ... I think I need to stretch th' legs a bit.

[snipingmissy.livejournal.com]

I understand.

[She walks to the edge of the steps.]

You do seem to like taking walks in the middle of the night. [Hawkeye lets out a quiet sigh.]

Are you certain it's safe to wander about in the middle of the night here--The drones and police aren't watching to make sure we stay in place all night like good little prisoners?

[He paused and looked away, as if something had already caught his attention. Finally he looked back to her.]

I used to be afraid of the dark. Though it seems in this place, I have nothing to fear. As long as he doesn't come back, then I'm fine.

[snipingmissy.livejournal.com]

From what I've seen there is plenty to be wary of here in Mayfield.

[Certainly not worse than home, but something about the entire atmosphere here had her constantly on her guard.]

And...if that is the case, then I hope that he doesn't come back.

[emperor-cowboy.livejournal.com]

Well... thanks, I guess.

[He was hesitant in doing anything right now.]

[snipingmissy.livejournal.com]

You're welcome.

[She hangs back by the stairs, frowning.]

You said you got something from home?

[emperor-cowboy.livejournal.com]

Yup... got the motorcycle I used to ride. Shame though... was hopin' fer a pack of smokes.

[He frowned.]

[snipingmissy.livejournal.com]

[Curious, she tilts her head.]

They don't sell cigarettes here? Or is it just not the same?
