Comfort
He hadn't been able to relax since Amiko left. Her parting message had made him nervous. Yes she was a highly capable woman. Yes she was the leader of Japan's premiere hero team. But not of that really meant anything when you were madly in love with said woman and worried about her anyway. Keiji sat cross-legged in the lobby, knowing she'd have to go through on her way in.

	What information could be used had been turned over. As she headed back, Amiko shivered more than was necessary from the cold. "Keiji..." she said said softly, a little forlornly. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	He quickly got up, taking Amiko into his arms. "Are you okay, love?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Okay, Amiko." He guides her there, keeping a protective arm wrapped around her. "Do you want me to get anything for you?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I can do that." He resumes his earlier hug, but now he gave her kiss on top of her head. He even rocks her a little comfortingly. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	He looks confused. "Why were you at the asylum?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Because when I first began working for the government, I was asked to help local law enforcement with a series of missing persons cases. There was no logical connection, no normal modus operandi... most serial killers have a 'type' but he didn't." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Keiji thinks a moment. "I remember hearing about that. The killer was an American, but I cannot remember the name. You caught him?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Yes. We had to go entirely on forensic and observational evidence from the scene of the disappearance and then tracking of purchases, because no bodies were ever found. His name is Marcus Bowen, and he was finally willing to reveal what he did with the bodies." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	He listened intently. "Then why did.." his tone turns hard upon the realization. "..he wanted to see you." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"There is an American film in which an institutionalized killer offers a young agent information she needs in exchange for conversation, such as asking her disturbing personal questions. I am not surprised that he was a fan." She cuddles against him. "I got the information. And he couldn't hurt me nearly as much as he thought he could." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	He held her, but his voice was still hard. "But he did, didn't he?" All she had to do was say the word and he'd break in and kill the bastard. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"He knew about me?" The thought didn't frighten him, however he was curious as to how this gaijin lunatic who'd been in prison for seven years learned this. He looked at her. "Do you think perhaps he's been in contact with Hand agents?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Well, Yuji's attack on me was in broad daylight. The local underworld probably picked up upon the event fairly quickly," he offered by way of explanation. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	She knows he's trying to be helpful, so she just stays close. "I think he tried to make me feel guilty. If I could have laughed, I would have. Dirty, certainly, filthy just from being in the room with him, but not guilty." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	He caresses her back lightly. "Guilty?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	She sighs a little at his touch. "He brought up my Lady-Mother when talking about you. Yuji did, too. It's a good thing they're not clever. Clever people could have made things pretty bad., doing that," she says quietly. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I'm safe, Keiji. Don't start worrying about trash like that. Just hold me." her hands, warming, move to undo his clothes. "And tell me you're mine." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
