 It was strange. All of it was so strange. Gigi cam back and only took a few pieces of the papers and said that was enough. That didn't make sense. People paid at least half of their paycheck on their rent right? Wasn't that the statistic she read? This was only one less number than her paycheck, so it had to be too little, but it was too much? Was the house really cheap? No, he said it was a fortune. So she would use it for all of her rents? That made sense, kind of. He should hold onto it then, and pay more rent in advance then, maybe they could save money. He would leave to return to his room, leaving the poor girl still confused. Susumoo seemed to think it was also too little, but he said it was too much. "I DON'T UNDERSTAND." Kasey was going crazy. Was it enough, or was it too much? Was it too little? Was he only asking for a little because he felt bad? Was it fair? Was he struggling? Did he need money? He needed money. That had to be it. "Just let them have it. We can get more. It's not that hard to get. Let's just ask Sato tomorrow."She lifted her left arm to wipe her face. She had misunderstood something, she knew that much, but was unsure as to what part of it she read incorrectly. She didn't want to take the money back, she had already argued with the bank teller for the amount. SHe didn't want to return to tell them to put it back. It took almost an hour to count. "Pour it on the floor then," Kasey said. Her face no longer covered in tears, but faint smears of blood now on her face instead. She wasn't sure what to feel anymore. Part of her was angry at herself for failing. "I can bring more if we want. Gigi should just hold onto all of it for later, so I don't have to bring more. Then I don't have to worry about counting again." Kasey would sigh, only to slide her back down the fridge to sit on the ground. She felt like a child. A foolish child. The only difference was that she was old enough to work, and know that working got you money to pay for the things you needed. All she ever used up until this point was credit cards. Each of them with a limit. When one was maxed, she stopped and used a different one. So even if someone stole one, they couldn't drain her funds. She was smart enough to do that. And when they were maxed, she paid them off, only half. After all, she was still trying to build credit... . . . but with almost a dozen credit cards, she missed that point too. |

G faceplanted onto the pillow and groaned. How did this happen? Its not like he was complaining. But he just wasnt ready for such riches. He couldnt even brace himself for it. Its like as if he was set for life with 2 sweet and sexy sugar mamas, with G himself feeling like some pimp or something, considering his track record
"Why am I even thinking this?? Kasey is my lil sister dammit. A hot lil sister I'll admit, BUT A LITTLE SISTER NONTHELESS!!!!" G thought as he pushed away some of his...usual thoughts
He knew going to his room and faceplanting on the bed was a meaningless and futile effort,considering he was an insomniac who couldnt sleep. But then what could he do. His thoughts trailed back to what he was thinking before. Journal Therapy. Writting his thoughts down. Perhaps that was good. G felt like he was starting to reach a certain boilng point where he couldnt bottle this. This certain undescribable feeling. Before it was just him. And he was free to do whatever and disregard the consequences. Killing, robbing and other stuff. But now he had friends and family. He couldnt do whatever. He had to behave and not let loose his frustrations on the world or some poor random woman that catches his eye.
G thought about writting out his ...ugh...'feelings'. But knew that he couldnt hide the journal. So he thought of another solution
"Hawaiian" he thought
Yes, he'd write his entries in hawaiian so no one would understand them. Now he'd just need to buy the journal

Was that blood dripping down her face now? Susumu's lips pressed into a thin line. Oh Jesus H. Christ, what the hell was happening now. This should be G worrying about this girl's mental and physical health, not her. She should just go and get him to deal with it. On the other hand, this might be a good way to score some points from him. He cared a lot about Kasey, after all, and saw her as a little sister. A non-threat to Susumu. So she took a tentative step towards the girl and held her hands up to Kasey's own--not yet touching her. but getting close.
"Hey. hey, don't be sad. This isn't a bad thing. Not at all! It's just overwhelming. Or...surprising! That's all. Tell you what. I have some special bank accounts that we can put this into, specifically for rent. We can even set them up to pay out to G monthly. Does that sound okay?"
First Luzia, now Kasey. It felt like she was collecting pink-haired girls with childlike mentalities that may or may not be insane. Kasey worked for Amadeus, after all, and apparently thought three million was less than eight thousand. She was definitely not all there. "Now, um, don't be alarmed, but you're bleeding from...uh...somewhere, and I can bandage that up for you if you'd like. I got G a first-aid kit a while back." tagged: @g @kasey || word count: 244 ||

The most simple and basic of things did not process well in her mind, but for some reason the most convoluted plots and unsorted ideas always seemed to be refined in her empty skull. She sighed, her right hand grabbing the sides of her face, pulling her skin downward out of frustration. Why was she like this? What did she do so wrong to cause such a headache? She didn't need all of this money. "That's a waste of time. Gigi can use this money now. If he needs more I can just give him more next time." It didn't make sense to her. Was too much money a bad thing? Did she already have enough for her plans? She looked back to her left arm, her right beginning to tighten her bandages. "It's just my arm. I'll be fine. There was this witch who wanted to kill me, so I needed to defend myself." That was how she saw it. It was a threat with words, but still a threat. Her guest, was- Her guest. That was it. "Wait..." she was piecing it all together. Everything she read in that chatroom. All of the behaviors. All of the connections. All of the ties and loose ends. She had her answer. It was the girl that was right in front of her. She was the key to all of her suffering. Kasey smiled, only to quickly hide it. "Susumoo, are their other hackers at Amadeus's?" he would ask, curious. "Or are you the only one?" She was the source of it all. Big_Sister. Kasey was going to kill her. He only needed to confirm her thoughts. And Susumoo, was going to take her right to Kasey. I mean, they're co-workers right? |

Money. All that money. If Kasey showed up with so much money. Maybe he could use it. Fix the home in Tokyo. Buy a journal now and maybe even get some painkillers from a pharmacy. Ok, he decided to go back once again. He barely got up from the bed, even though he wasnt sleepy, he still had a hard time getting up. Perhaps because the bed was just so inviting and soft.
"I wish I could sleep. I just wanna sleep" G thought as he got up from the bed
He then once again arrived back to the two girls, oblivious as to what was going on
"Hey Kasey, can I use a little bit of your money to buy some things like painkillers and other stuff?" he asked
It took him a good while until his dense head realized that something was up. He sensed something was wrong, but he didnt know what and he didn't even dare to ask
"Maybe poison. That can put me to sleep" he thought as he tried to change the subject, at least in his mind
G looked at Susumu and wanted to ask her what was wrong and if she was ok, but didnt. He didnt want to get in the middle of whatever this is

"A witch? Do you fight crime like G-kun?" Susumu blinked, surprised for a moment by that admission. Wasn't Kasey just a tailor? She worked for Amadeus, sure, but she said all she did was make his suits.
Wait. That wasn't the problem. The problem was her talking about Amadeus here, in front of G, when Susumu had so carefully constructed a web of lies to hide all of that from him. He didn't know the two of them worked for the same person, let alone the name of the man she worked for and called "father". Her eyes widened slightly, concerned smile becoming brighter, as her stomach twisted tightly on itself. Kasey even went so far as to call her a hacker. This stupid girl. This absolute idiot.
Liability.
"Silly Kas-chan, I'm a programmer, not a hacker! There's a huge difference." Lie. Lie fast. Lie faster. "As for otou-sama's business...I have no idea how many programmers he has? He runs an electronics company after all. You need a lot of them! I just know I'm his favorite. But why are you asking? If you need somebody to make you a code, I can do it for no cost! I know money's no problem, but family's free~!"
You're a liability. If you rat me out, after all I've done...
She looked over her shoulder when Gil walked in and her smile grew wider. Then faded to a look of concern. "Painkillers...? G, love, if you needed some all you had to do was ask...what's hurting? Your hand?"
...I can't let her compromise this. tagged: @g @kasey || word count: 267 ||

"No, I don't fight crime. I was on my way to my other job when she came up to me. She called herself a super-villain. But she ran away from me." she spoke, fully knowing what kind of monster she was. She was the one to fear. She was the one that came when no one else was left. She was the choice prize of Ketsujo Corp. She was the janitor. The one that cleaned up the messes left behind. But that didn't mean she didn't make messes of her own. "Oh, I guess then you wouldn't know." She would speak after she reclarified her position. That was right, it was what she had told her. But isn't that all hacking was? Programming something that didn't belong so they could break code? She was his favorite. No. That was a lie. That was the lie. He did not have favorites. He only went out of his way to gift one of his employees. That was it. No, she wasn't the liar. He was. He was the one who deceived her. "but you aren't his favorite..." she spoke softly to herself. Something wasn't adding up. Who was this Big_Sister? Why did she seem so close but so far away? She would turn to Gigi, only to answer his question quickly. It wasn't that he wasn;t important to her, but something had her focus. Something had caught her attention. "Yeah, buy whatever. We should buy the house too so we can do some remodeling." she would say. No emotion. Only words came out of her mouth. Not a single feeling. "We're in a room full of masks and deceit. Which parts of the stories do we believe?"
"She must know Big Sister, that or she is carefully hidden away. Either way, she has to die."
"Anyone who endangers life, and is willing to believe it is nothing, should be-"
"I'll roast her and eat her alive. I want her to feel this. . . "
" . . . "She tapped her chin. She already knew one thing for sure. "Gigi, have you fought strong villains?" she would ask him, "So you know if they work for anyone?" She was curious. She needed to know. The question burned her tongue, it danced on her lips. ". . . Have you heard about Big Sister?" |

He was surprised how Kasey answered him. She was so emotionless. Or should he say... mature. This was a side he hadnt seen from her. Even Susu could see that he was slightly taken aback by her attittude.
When Kasey said about buying a house, he just kind of stood there silent. But then she asked him something, did he ever fight strong Villains and if they worked for anyone and lastly, has he heard of Big Sister
"Yes, I fought strong Villains. Though the ones I faced mostly worked alone or didnt wanna confess if they worked for someone or who they worked for. And lastly, yes I heard of Big Sister. From what I heard. The girl is incredibly irritating. If it is a girl that is. I dont know. Big Sister works with electronics right? Online stuff, right? I cant say what gender they are. For all I know I could probably get catfished again" G remembered a few years back when he was on a site and met someone called 'Florist', he was nice to the person because he believed 'Florist' was a girls username..... BOI....was he wrong
"I need to buy bleach and drink it to burn that outta my head again" G thought

Susumu's whole body tensed as Kasey kept saying unnecessary things with that stupid, punch-able mouth of hers. So she was looking for Big Sister as well. Hah. Hahaahahahah! That was so funny she had to actively bite the inside of her mouth to keep from drawing in a breath and laughing. So that's why she was asking around about Amadeus' hackers. Did she have no clue who she was, then? Or did she know, and was she dangling the truth in front of her eyes, threatening to ruin everything with a single sentence. Unlikely. She had been careful. Too careful? She hadn't even considered that this child was a threat.
Until now.
Shit. I called Amadeus 'father'. She could tell G what he does. Then...
No. No. Let them talk. Let G handle this. You're an innocent. An unknown. Let her believe what she wants to. Keep things vague. Lie.
It was her turn to be silent, and see how those two continued. At least G didn't slap her around like he had her the last time Big Sister was mentioned. Though he did wonder aloud if she was a man. Oi.
I'm surrounded by idiots. Gil's lucky he's the cutest idiot ever. tagged: @g @kasey || word count: 204 ||

Answers. Questions. Ideas. Each answer gave her a dozen more questions. Each question let to more ideas. Each idea left her with an answer. It was never going to stop. She needed to take action. She needed to give, if she wanted to receive. She would smile, looking up to face her brother. "Well I guess I should actually tell you what I do," she would say now, addressing G. Susumoo was far too close, and too useless for now. All she had to do was find a way to latch onto her and find the truth. Perhaps Big_sister was really- "Well, I'm a janitor, you know that, but I also used to tailor until this new guy picked me up. That's how I met Susumoo!" she would pause to smile at the girl. She was beginning to piece it all together. All she needed was to do one thing, and the wealth she wanted, would be hers. Then no one would ever suffer again. "I worked all kinds of jobs, but I also work as a maid for the Ketsujo Corporation. I used to just clean their floors, I used to work a bunch of locations under different names, but anyways. . . I help with the shipments and I deliver stuff." She would say. Not telling a word that what she loaded up trucks with was not produce or products, but bodies. She would smile, finding all she had learned from the both of them did not bring her any closer to her goal. But she had it figured out now. Big_sister was right there. She was not a person. She was a people. It had to be all the programmers. So if one of them died or got caught, she would still exist, no one would know. It was perfect. She was the internet. "Big_Sister had been a rumor for a while. I just wanted to see if she was real, or if it everyone else was really messing up. But I guess so. So I'll have to stop her." her mouth would go to a grin, she was all too pleased with herself. "But I guess that's something I'll never be able to do, not yet at least."She would turn, her hair dancing as she spun around to face the fridge. She would reach in to get another drink. Again, she would pop it open, but this time savoring the flavor. She was going to find the truth. |

Kasey was behaving like a whole other person now. She now turned to G to tell him what she does for a living. She said she was a janitor as he knew that, but she also used to tailor, had all kinds of jobs, worked as a maid in Ketsujo Corporation. Clean the floors, some stuff and deliver stuff
"Whoa...that was lotta jobs. So...um... What do you deliver exactly?" he asked, still a but lost. He was curious as the other jobs seem straightfowrad. But when it comes to delivery and shipping. It could be anything
"I swear, I have a total brainfart moment now. What's Ketsujo Corp. Its like at the tip of my tongue. Also I feel like Im forgetting-OH!!!" G thought as he remembered. He quickly turned to Susu who before asked him if his hand was hurting. Kasey kind of distracted him and he forgot to answer her
"Hm? No...not my hand. More like my head. Plus, its always good to have painkillers at home" G explained to Susumu
Kasey spoke about Big Sister once more, basically saying she wanted to stop Big Sister. G had to stop her there
"Whoa whoa whoa! I see where you're getting at. You wanna be a Vigilante like me and you wanna stop crime. But think about it like this. You worked so hard with your countless jobs an you work at UA as a janitor and you promised to even keep an eye on Miku for me. Please, rest. You deserve it. You already have enough of money to afford some rest for yourself. Dont work yourself to death. I'm the Vigilante here and I'll stop Big Sister. I've already been on her case for a while. I'll find a way to stop her. But before we continue. Kasey, did Big Sister hurt you in any way?" G asked concerned if there was soemthing he didnt know

Kasey rattling off the various jobs she had didn't matter to Susumu, save for one little detail: Ketsujo Corporation. Sato Ketsujo was one of Amadeus' key rivals, as she remembered from her debriefings. Amadeus had to know that his new tailor was working for both sides. The real question was "why"? She wouldn't get much information for spying purposes if she was always in sight of the boss himself; he'd be keeping too much of an eye on her for any of that nonsense. Was it just the money she was after? It would explain the piles of piles of money she possessed. Or maybe it had to do with what she said next.
Susumu turned away from Gil and Kasey as the pair went towards the kitchen, now facing the bedroom, and a grin spread over her lips.
She's after me? Me! She's looking for Big Sister, but she has no idea! Hah! Hahahah, that is too rich! I thought just having G chasing his tail looking for me was entertaining, but this! This is too much fun!
She scratched idly at the bruises on her shoulder.
But how much does she know? G's at least disconnected from Amadeus, so he doesn't have that angle. But Kasey works for him, too, and knows I do as well. That's why she asked about his "hackers". She's trying to find Big Sister among his staff. That's an actual threat. Amadeus would never give me away, though. And he does have plenty of legitimate programmers for his business. So do I hide behind them?
Or I can make things interesting.
Looking back over at the pair with her expression restrained to a confused, worried look. "That's...the same person who was following Miku-chan, wasn't it? The one who made you..." she flinched as her fingers pressed against her bruises, "...G, that villain is dangerous! Should you still be going after her? I...I don't want you to get hurt..." tagged: @g @kasey || word count: 325 ||

She listened. She had no choice but to listen. "Whatever the stores order. I get good deals on food, usually the damaged boxes." she would answer Gigi's question before turning them out for a moment for her mind to recollect and assess all that was presented to her. She delivered, she drove. But other times, she was driven. She never asked what they loaded the trucks with, and when she loaded them she didn't ask where they were going. She was interested sure, but she didn't care. It didn't concern her. Anything she needed to know, she knew. All she needed to know was whatever she did, brought money, and everyone who needed to be hurt, was already dead. Either by her hand, or by someone else that her hands ordered. "No one will hurt me, Gigi." she would say, "The pain of my body is nothing to the pain of my heart." Family. It was all she had now. These people were her family, and soon, she would find what everyone was hiding under the rug. She was going to find the truth Gigi told his daughter, as well as Susumoo's real job. There was no way she didn't know about Big_Sister. There was no possible way. Everyone knew what he did, they had to, right? ". . . No one will ever lay a hand on Miku-Ku." Kasey would speak, harshly, coldly. She was prepared to die for that child, even if they were barely on speaking terms. She had come to learn that she had been talking to her the whole time, to her own failure. But if it was easier to pretend they were other people, then she would make no change in their relation. "I'll fucking kill anyone who thinks about laying a hand on her." She exhaled heavily through her nose. She knew she could not be there the whole time. She knew there was moments where little could be done. She asked Levi to help out when she had nothing better to do. She was the one better at hiding. She had even gone as far to ask her boss to do all he could to watch over her family. She was sure no harm would come to that child. And if something did happen, they would not get away with it. Kasey would come at full force. She would not let anyone harm her child. She would not let anyone harm Gigi. She would not let anyone else hurt anymore. She would only bring love, kindness and death. |

"Who are you and what have you done to Kasey?" G wondered to himself as he felt he was seeing a whole new person infront of him. This determination the girl had, this drive. It was powerful. Maybe even more so powerful then his. He felt uneasy as he didnt know what to do. Seeing the situation between the girls. He relized, he prefered to stay oblivious and let them work things out. Now they dragged him into whatever this is
G then noticed Susu and walked over to her and hugged her from behind by wrapping his hands around her stomach
"Hey there. Dont worry. I promise, I'll find Big Sister so you can stay safe." G said and then kissed her on her left cheek. And then he adressed Kasey while still gently holding Susu "Listen, I can appreciate you trying to help me. But I dont want you to become a murderer for my sake. I am grateful that you wanna keep Miku safe. But please dont jump into danger. You're not a fighter or a Vigilante" G said as he was oblivious to her darker side of life.
"I dont want you to become a killer. I'll find Big Sister and I'll make sure she doesnt bother us ever again. Now please, lets all drop this and maybe act like a family" he told Kasey

Susumu leaned into G's embrace and sighed. Ah, boyfriend hugs. If she tried she could pretend that she was too focused on the warm, gentle feeling of his arms holding her protectively to feel a rush a cruel joy at the rage in Kasey's voice. Hah, so the reason she was after Big Sister was because she had been following Miku. Newsflash, you stupid girl, Big Sister only took that job because somebody hired her. She should have been after the one who was looking for her. The person who had wanted Miku's schedule, and had that photograph...
Her mind came to a screeching halt.
Oh. Oh. OH.
How could I be so stupid?!
Keeping up her facade as best she could, Susumu's eyes bored into Kasey's own. It couldn't be. Could it? How many people would have come into G's home without him knowing? How many would know Miku's name, or know where she went to school, or have access to that photograph? It was so clear. There was just one thing she had to confirm to be absolutely sure, but then if she was right, then...
...then this whole thing was a hilarious case of she-said he-said.
"I still wish you wouldn't. I know I can't stop you," she sighed, her voice tight with apparent sadness. In truth, it was almost like a physical pain in her chest as the puzzle pieces all fit together. "So...just please be safe. And yeah. Let's figure something else to do, that's not getting drunk and doing something dumb? Maybe...we can go out for lunch together, or do something fun like karaoke? Something together?" tagged: @g @kasey || word count: 278 ||
