[The less said about how long it took him to figure out how to use this damn thing the better. He was walking and preoccupied and is not here to be judged.

He is instead here to judge someone else....even if the small five year old in his arms is probably judging him anyway.]

Would this kid's shixiong please come pick him up? I found him wandering around alone. [You know, during a kidnapping crisis. At night.] Says he can fight but I'm not lettin' a five year old wander around alone. You have an hour from me sending this to get a hold of me or I'll take him back to my place and we'll try again in the morning.

[Alibaba's going to complain, isn't he?]

Ah, isn't that Ma--er, Xia Sini? Did he get lost? It's very kind of you to take him in like this, but it might be better to take him back to his own home instead, if possible!

Because his whatever's in jail?

[It has been a Night, can you tell?]

[holycurse]

Jail? That's...well I suppose I did hear he was a little unruly......

[Hrm.]

Um, have you heard when he'll be released, then? I hope it's not too long.

[fogofdread]

Not yet. I'm seeing if I can bail him out, because someone needs to watch Xia Sini before he does something really stupid.

[holycurse]

Well, he's more mature than some of the other children I've watched [because he's actually an adult], so I'm sure he can manage at home on his own for a day. If you want him off your hands though, he's been to the daycare where I work, so I'd at least be a familiar face!

[fogofdread]

He told me his shixiong wasn't home and then told me to take him home after being told that I wasn't going to let him wander around alone with a kidnapper on the loose. I'm not leaving him alone.

[holycurse]

Are you planning to watch him yourself, then? At least until his shixiong is free...do either of them know you?

[fogofdread]

We're going to try and bail him out. Hopefully they'll let us...but no, I didn't know either of them before tonight.

[holycurse]

Good luck to you then...but that's very kind of you, to help a pair of strangers! I'm sure they both appreciate it--even if little Xia Sini might not necessarily say as much.

[fogofdread]

He tried to tell me not to wander alone.

[Which was honestly funny but.]

[holycurse]

A very conscientious child! He'll be a great man when he grows up. Protecting us from all sorts of dangers!

[Having a laugh at your expense kid, sorry.]

[fogofdread]

[Poor Chu Wanning, hearing all of this.]

Or at least try to, if he doesn't get himself hurt before then.

[holycurse]

Surely his shixiong can--ah, hopefully his shixiong can help with that...as long as he stays out of jail.......that doesn't sound very promising so far, I have to say.

[fogofdread]

I'm starting to think they both need a minder.

[holycurse]

....We can always hope they both improve, I suppose.

[fogofdread]

You're way more optimistic than I am, then.

[holycurse]

If I couldn't stay at least a little optimistic, I'm not sure where I'd be right now, haha....anyway, you're all still young, I'm sure there's still room to grow!
