[Here, have a wide-eye bleach blond, network. He's sitting in on a curb, ignoring the fact that his leather pants might be damaged by whatever garbage is laying around, and looking like he just seen a ghost or something. Then he goes from scared to completely pissed off, though it's still not about the expensive pants. Nope, it's about the car since he turns the camera to face the poor thing with a damaged front end sitting in the ruins of what had been a couple trash bins.

He doesn't turn the camera on him as he addresses the general public.]

I got run off the road by a fucking keukegen!

[Because that's the only reason why he would have swerved. He's not that bad at driving ridiculously fast cars after all. The tow truck appears and he takes the camera off the car in order to pout a little. He's bleeding but he doesn't care.]

Okay, it didn't run me off the road but it still popped up in front of me without a warning. Fucking thing's gone now and I don't even know what I've seen except it was hairy and not exactly big. If I didn't know any better I'd call it a stray dog or something, but...

[There's an officer chatting with the towing people before turning and making his way back to Shou. Shou sighs - dramatically.]

Gotta go.

Well, yeah, I know they SUPPOSEDLY carry disease, but they're also not real. ... of course, lots of things that aren't real are real here. But at least your car wouldn't be banged up. Just gross.

Well, if you were to believe what a lot of people say, what we're going through right now is not real, so I wasn't going to take any chances. Besides, who knows what one of those would do to a car besides spill disease-ridden guts all over the paint job?

My stomach and I would beg to differ on the "not real" part, man. And it'd probably be better than hitting the dumpsters! At least yokai are squishy. Usually.

I heard that. Man, that's gotta suck a lot. Do you have any idea on what caused it?

The car's under warranty. Once I get the paperwork settled, I can get it fixed. Hopefully.

No. I mean, nothing more specific than "some weird supernatural shit". It's fine, now, but I'm hungry all the friggin' time. Driving me out of my tree.

Ha! Well, I hope so. It's a nice car, it'd be a shame if it weren't repaired.

Weird. Hope you aren't turning into a vampire or something.

It's a beautiful car. I would have to get a car just like it if I can't get it repaired.

Well I already can't go outside in the sun without protection. Maybe I am a vampire. [which would suck. literally. HA]

It's easy to get attached to these things!

It's okay so long as you don't have to start wearing tails and a cape.

More than attached; that car is one of the best I've driven outside of a classic.

Yeah, no. That's a fashion disaster.

Well she is a beauty. I hope the insurance gets it. But I guess the most important thing is, where did Cousin It go?

I have no idea. It wasn't on my car or in the dumpsters and no one saw where it went. It really has me wondering if it flew or something.

Oh god, I fucking HOPE they don't fly. Flying hair monsters is the last thing we need.

Yeah. no. That isn't something any of us need right now, especially when all I got going for me is a song.

A song?

A song. My ticket to the secret number club is a song.

Well, if that's all you got, consider yourself lucky,

It drives me nuts. It's not like I expect something great but what am I gonna do with a song? Sing a monster to sleep?

Well, it may be useless and annoying, but at least it's not really hurting or hindering you. Trust me, it could be worse.

Yeah... I know. Just not too sure how useful it would be in a fight.

I don't have anything useful, either, so don't feel too bad. We can both sit on the sidelines and... hand out bandaids, or something.

[oh the irony]

[two fierce killers, sitting around handing out medical supplies and bitching about being lame]

Don't forget the sports drinks.

[one day they'll get useful Echoes. One day.]

Ha! Right? I guess someone has to.

[with Shou's luck, it would probably be one that's How Do I Shoot Web?]

Lucky us, right?

[they both have the best of luck...]

Yeah. Oh well. Having powers would be too much responsibility anyway.

They'll probably expect us to fight or something if we did.

I'm not very fond of fighting. My brother teaches karate, but I never really got into it.
