[He's back. Ah, and not much time has passed here, has it? Might as well prod at the network a little, though why not make it a bit of a game? He did have that endearing persona he used once before against... who was that again?]

[Oh well.]

ahhh but isnt that scary?? how strong do u have 2 b 2 jump a building?? all u heroes must b rly strong. wats the most heroy thing uve done here?? how can i get good at it! ᕙ(⇀‸↼!!)ᕗ

[Guess who.]

[Or don't. You can also just tell him about cool stuff you've done to make yourself a potential target and be fawned over and complimented because you're so cool.]

[abduxel]

Do you mean something awful has happened at home? Glad to be back, then, I guess?

[debauchewy]

Not awful as far as I'm concerned.

Yes. [a light laugh, titling his head.] I am, I wonder how many here would say the same? [Is coming back to this place considered good? Then, it's all up to perspective.]

[abduxel]

You have me curious.

[His smile broadens a little, and he misinterprets what Hisoka said:] How many, I don't know, you seem like a guy who might have enemies. But I'm glad to see you.

[debauchewy]

[Ah, let him misinterpret, it doesn't matter.]

You're glad, so then I'm satisfied.

Ah well- [A low lid gaze.] Not satisfied.

[abduxel]

What would satisfy you, then?

[debauchewy]

Free pics! [Holding up a finger.]

Making me pay, buuu~ Such a flirt.

[abduxel]

[He bursts into laughter.] Still not free, sorry. But you're getting free video right now, if that makes you feel any better.

[debauchewy]

I've gotten free pictures before, did you make a new rule while I was gone?

[abduxel]

It's a capitalist world, Hisoka. Demand went up!

[debauchewy]

I suppose you won't take a trade then either?

[abduxel]

I'd consider a trade. There's something nice about the barter system.

[debauchewy]

Then I suppose we have a deal. As soon and I can get something good for you of course.

I'll be seeing you soon I hope. Though I'm afraid my night's already taken. [He's sure you know by who.]

[abduxel]

I assumed as much. I think things will be quite busy for a while. Well, you'll be seeing me in your dreams, at least.

[An allusion to what he knows will happen soon. Not that he knows whether or not Hisoka will succumb to the ring of pestilence, but Abduxel thinks it's a funny little quip anyway, and he smiles like he knows something. But that's typical.]

[debauchewy]

[Ring of what? He's got no idea what's going on, should he? This is why he really needs a manager or something.]

In my dreams? Do you think so highly of yourself?

[abduxel]

[Abduxel only knows the upcoming horseman plot because of demon privileges. Lucifer is the best agent, really.

He laughs:]

Yes, I guess I do.

[debauchewy]

[What good are you to him if you don't share? How rude.]

Hm~ Is that so. [A thoughtful sound, sighing a little.]

You've yet to earn a place in my dreams. Though I admit, some moments with you are quite dream'like'. [Like you coming into his apartment through mirrors.]

[abduxel]

I'll have to work on that, then, won't I? Do you dream about people much?

[debauchewy]

I wouldn't be able to tell you. I never remember. [So similar to how he is with his past, with memories, why bother trying? And what reason would he have to linger on his dreams?]

[abduxel]

I could have been in your dreams, then, for all you know.

[He wonders then if he could get in there on purpose. He's never thought about that.]

[debauchewy]

So then you're not enough reason to bother remembering them either.

[Well certainly useful to do on others, but into his own dreams? Eh.]

[abduxel]

Wow, ouch!

[debauchewy]

Have I missed anything in my time away?

[abduxel]

Oh, probably. I don't pay much attention to the local politics. I think there are some new rules and surveillance or something. Unregistered imPorts less allowed to travel... I'm registered, so it doesn't affect me.

Besides that, things have been peachy. I took some care of your friend while you were away. By which I mean I purchased him some strong beverages.

[debauchewy]

My friend? [He.. means Chrollo?]

[abduxel]

The only friend of yours I've met, I think.

...Well, besides Dorian.
