The Roof, Sunday Afternoon

[scary-jeff.livejournal.com]

Okay, so he'd managed to get his hands on some new clothes on the mainland, but trousers were still a matter of principle to Jeff. Having suspected Nana of hiding said item of clothing up on the roof for some time now, he returned to the scene of the crime to find them.

Together with Nana, of course. He scolded her every five minutes while he searched.

Being a dog, she had no idea why she was being punished, so she gave him the puppy eyes instead and wagged her tail a lot.

Haku headed up to the roof, jsut for a breath of fresh air and to enjoy the view.

He however hadn't expected to see someone and a dog searching franticly there. "Hello?"

Jeff, in the mean time, had begun arguing with his dog. Loudly.

"You have to respect other people's trousers, Nana! And their pants! You can't just eat a pair of pants whenever you feel like it--"

He blinked. And stared.

"...I'm sorry," he said, "I didn't realise the roof was already occupied by clothes."

"It's all right," Haku said shaking his head slightly and looking very confused. "I just got here, I didn't mean to intterupt you."

He was going to ignore the "clothes" thing, he'd probably meant to say someone.

"Oh, no," Jeff said, grinning brightly, "It's alright, I'm just looking for trousers. I mean, my trousers. Not trousers in general, that would just be mad. I wouldn't want to strip anyone of their trousers."

"You have a hard time keeping a hold of your clothes then?" Haku smiled.

"Well, you know what it's like," Jeff answered, "Easy come, easy go. Especially when you've got a spy tank around. You never know when she's going to get a hankering. For clothes! Not people."

Haku smirked. "I hate to tell you, but I've never had a problem holding onto my clothes." He paused a moment and looked sympatheticly. "But I do have special powers, so that might be why?"

"You're lucky, then, I suppose," Jeff scrambled, "Are your powers in any way clothing-related? I would love to be able to make clothing stick. Otherwise there's the whole nudity element involved."

"I'm afraid not," Haku shook his head and looked at Jeff curiously. "Does it really just fall off and disappear? Maybe you need better made clothes."

[scary-jeff.livejournal.com]

"Not so much as 'fall off'," Jeff said, making finger quotes, "It's just when I'm not paying attention suddenly there's teeth. Have you ever been stripped by a Saint Bernard?"

He paused.

"I don't mean that as a suggestion, obviously," he said.

"No," Haku laughed and smiled at the dog. "I never had a dog growing up." He crouched down and clapped his hands at Nana. "Here puppy."

He liked animals, could you tell?

"I'm not entirely certain she's actually a dog," Jeff commented, "She may be a spy."

Nana had no such problems and launched herself at Haku, grinning and drooling all over the place. She loved new people like a loving thing.

[ off to bed, pick this and potential other stuff up later! ]

"Really? What makes you say that?" Haku smiled as he laughed and scratched Nana behind the ears.

[scary-jeff.livejournal.com]

"Oh, you know," Jeff said, eyes momentarily darkening, "Reasons."

[snow-white-boy.livejournal.com]

"Well, yes. Everyone does have their reasons." He gave Nanaone last pat and smiled. "I'm Haku by the way."
