Meeting up with Mel.

[Kuro Okami]

Grinning sheepishly, Kuro joined her."Sorry. Not used to laying low like this." Swinging his wounded leg onto the table,he looked at the various objects in sastifaction."Its good that I got useful stuff. It would have been wack if I had gotten stuff that was totally useless, and gotten my leg wounded in the bargain, though I admit it wsould also have been strangely funny." He suddenly yawned. Rubbing his eyes, he asked Melissa,"Saay, is there a place wher I can conk out?"

[Melissa Clark]

Melissa looked at Kuro. Thinking over his request for somewhere to sleep. "If you want somewhere safe, I say either my place or Brandon's. I've got a guest room. But if you're not up to that, for whatever reason. Then the base's tunnels have benches and stuff, not many people go down there at night purely because of the darkness. I'd say the center's sofas, but you must remember, rebels come from all walks of life. Rapists, murderers, thieves. You could get hurt up here." She told him, then rubbed at her neck with her good hand. She began scooping up the contents of the bag, placing it back within the sack and slinging it over her shoulder, standing. "It's entirely up to you, my friend."

[Kuro Okami]

Kuri thought for a minute. He could proball manage any threat here with his Blade while he's awake,even whith a wounded leg, but alsleep, he'd be vulnerble. And as for Bam, he seemed to like to be left alone, so it wouldnt be wise to bug him... Kuro shrugs."I suppose I'll take the geust room in your house, Melissa!" He grinned."We're roommates now, it looks like,hahahaha!"

[Melissa Clark]

Melissa chuckled. "Looks like." She smiled, waited for him to stand then descended into a tunnel hatch. It was a pretty basic shortcut. Five minute walk from the center through that one tunnel would lead directly to her door. Pretty much. "Come on then Kuro, let's go show you around my home." She waited for the white haired boy, once more, then began to walk along the tunnel that lead to her home. A nice place, white door. White walls. Paintings. Clutter gathering dust on every available surface.

[Kuro Okami]

He smiled, looking around at the place."Nice. I ain't been in a house eversince.."He frowned, choking the words out. "..eversince my parents died. Mostly its been abandoned factories and what not, thats scheduled for destruction." His eyes widened."Im gonna have to gt my stuff from the tunnels tomorrow."

[Melissa Clark]

Once inside, Melissa nodded her head. She ruffled her hair. "I can go and get that now, your room is up the stairs, to the right. Next to the bathroom. My room is to the immediate left of the stairs." She told him. Then continued to point things out. "That's the kitchen, this is the front room. Biggest room. Lots of stuff in there, feel free to play with it. Don't matter if you break anything." She nodded her head. "After ten pm, keep the television quiet if you choose to watch it." She rubbed at her chin, walked into the kitchen and took a drink from a carton of milk. "Food's always stocked. Don't ask how." She looked from left to right, then back again. "So, I'm gonna go look for your stuff. Make yourself at home." She smiled, sweetly, then turned to leave the house."

[Kuro Okami]

Kuro grinned."K, and be sure not to drop the silver pendant of a snarling wolfthats on top of the pile. My father gave that to me, its the inspiration of my other side.You sould see my stuff easily, most of it is what Ive got on right now." Stumping over to his sleeping place, he conked out, after murmering,"its been one heck of a day...."

[Melissa Clark]

Melissa laughed to herself as she vanished off to get his items. She'd make sure not to drop anything, it wouldn't be fair on him to lose an item of personal importance. So once she had all of his items in her arms, she made sure nothing was on the floor, or left behind before she finally made her way back to her home.

Which took her just under an hour. And once indoors, she turned the television on, left his items at the foot of his bed and began cooking up some spaghetti. Mostly because she was hungry, but she made enough for two. In case he fancied any of what she made. She wasn't the greatest cook, so majority of the time, it was just pasta and some herbs.

[Kuro Okami]

Kuro was sleping, in a dream where he was at the ultimate arcade, when he woke up,smeelling spaghetti. Trundling into the kitchen, he blinked sleepily.'Is that spaghetti I smell?"

[Melissa Clark]

As Melissa dished out her meal onto a plate, she turned to find Kuro sticking his head into the kitchen. She nodded her head and licked her fingers. "Help yourself." She gestured to the pot on the cooker, before covering her spaghetti in ketchup and moving to the front room. "I got your stuff, it's on your bed." She called, as she sat and watched the television. "How was your sleep?" She asked her roommate, twirling a mouthful of spaghetti onto her fork.

[Kuro Okami]

Shrugging, he grinned as he got a plate and ladled spaghetti onto it.'It was alright. I dreamed I was in the ultimate arcade.I better get back to sleep after I eat this,though." Forking some spaghetii, he shewed it up and swallowed before asking,"So what are we gunna do tomorrow?"

[Melissa Clark]

Looking at Kuro, she shrugged. "Tomorrow, I guess I'll take the sack down to the engineers, then we can take you on a SMILE raid. If your leg is up to it, otherwise we may just have to help you familiarize yourself with the HQ." She rubbed her chin, stretched her arm and kept on eating. It was somewhat darker now, not that you could tell. But the time on the television told her it was just past eight at night. "How's your leg doing?" She asked, crossing her legs. She'd shower and get changed, then probably head to bed herself. Unless she was called out, or someone rang.

"How's it feel to be in a house?" She chuckled, lightly.

[Kuro Okami]

Kuro grinned."Well, to answer the first question, I think I just might be up for a raid, as long as its not too strenous.And for the second, it feels great. Try sleeping on varuis, dank floors for a year and you'll see what I mean,hahaha." Strecthing and finishing his meal, he picked up his crutch and hobbled back to his room, going to sleep in just a few seconds.

[Melissa Clark]

Melissa watched Kuro go. "Next time take your plate out!" Melissa called, turning off the television. She rolled her eyes, finished her food, and brought out both her plate and his before leaving them to soak in the sink full of water. Finding that she couldn't be bothered showering, she headed straight up to her room, got changed, and crawled into her bed. Ready to sleep.

((Time skip to the morning?))

[Kuro Okami]

(Why not?)

Getting up and yawning,Kuro dressed in a new set of gear, put on his pendant,and grabbed his crutch and hobbled to the TV,turning it to morning cartoons.

[Melissa Clark]

By the time Kuro awoke, Melissa was still coiled in a ball in her bed. Nuzzled into her pillow and her bedsheets as if nothing was wrong. As if nothing could ever disturb her slumber. But that wasn't true, unfortunately. The noise of cartoons downstairs woke her. She grumbled, remembering she had someone staying with her now and began toddling down the stairs. In her pajamas that were a few sizes too big. "Mmh, Kuro? That had better be you."

[Kuro Okami]

Kuro waved at Melissa, grinning sheepishly."Morning, Melissa. I dint realize it was turned up so loud.Want me to make ya some breakfast?"

[Melissa Clark]

Melissa blinked blearily at the television, then to Kuro. She mumbled something quietly as she sat herself down on the sofa. "Breakfast sounds good," she murmured, resting her head on her hand and beginning to doze quietly. Melissa was never good with mornings, it was not a forte of hers.

[Kuro Okami]

Hobblng over to the kitchen and cooking eggs, Kuro asked," So,mornings not your thing huh? Our did someone visit and kep ya up?" Finishing with the sunny side up eggs, Kuro started with the bacon, and then toast. Loading down a plate each for Melissa and himself, he swung his way back over to Melissa,handing hers over.

[Melissa Clark]

Nodding her head, Melissa smiled feebly. "Not a morning person. No one visited in the night, though." Taking the plate, she thanked Kuro. Her cheeks were a light pink as she ate the breakfast he made for them both. She rubbed her nose, and watched the television with sleepy eyes. "How was your sleep?" She asked, yawning with a mouthful of food.
