[Ever wanted to get a message from a messenger bird? Well, here is one, courtesy of Taka.]
Dear Athena,
I have found two individuals who may be able to help you with your headaches:
1. Dr Naomi Kimishima. I have spoken with her but briefly, but she claims to be a qualified doctor. 2. Dr Mephisto, who will prescribe you nothing unless he examines you first. (Personally I would not trust a man with the name of a demon as far as he could be thrown.)
Both seem more suitable choices to me than depending on something as unknown to us as magic, but as I said before, the choice remains yours.
[Well, hey Taka. Fancy seeing you here. Reading the note she couldn't help but smile a little. He was always thinking of her. After a moment, she went to go write a letter back to him.]
Dear Simon,
I haven't heard about them before this, but I'll take whatever leads I can get. I was also told about a Dr. Jude, but I haven't been able to talk to him about it yet....
Is there a way to meet them?
Your friends, - AC
[Looking to the note after, she rolled it up and walked over to Taka.]
[Taka will happily accept the treat and let Athena tuck the note into the kerchief around his neck. No hawk attacks here! For once.
An hour or so later after Taka has flown off, Athena will receive a reply.]
Dear Athena,
The directions to Dr Mephisto's office are attached to this letter. You will have to contact Dr Kimishima yourself by crystal -- I do not know where she practices.
Dutifully yours, - SB
P.S. Taka seemed pleased when he returned. Did you feed him?
[Rin's never tried out these messenger bird things and figures this is safer than the amulet right now given the topic and his penchant for projecting emotions.]
Hey Athena,
Found your note. And since I sure as hell didn't leave those chocolates and neither did Haru.... I'm guessing that was you and what the note was about?
Appreciate the thought, thanks.
Next time a heads up though, I was so confused! Probably would have helped if I found the note before or with the chocolates though instead of way after, huh?
[The last time she got a message was from Simon, so the sight of the bird is a little surprising. She knew she'd probably hear something from Rin after her attempts to help him out in her own way after realizing the power of the chocolate.
Laughing a little at the note, she started to write back.]
Rin,
I had to try something. It's Valentine's Day, after all. If you found the note before the chocolate, you probably wouldn't have done anything with it.
You have to let me know if anything good came from it. It wasn't easy to sneak those in, you know.
-- Athena
[Sending the bird back to him, she chuckled again lightly before going about her business.]
Sorry for the delay, wanted to see where the thread went a bit first
You know, I don't really have any female friends back home. There's just my sister. So I don't know if that's women's intuition or the fact that you are a trained psychologist, but yeah, you're probably right, I would have gotten rid of the evidence before Haru could find it. But it worked out, whatever. We realized that we def didn't give them to each other. And then he "gave" them to me anyway.
So yeah, it was kinda nice.
How the hell did you even get in anyway and more important, how did you keep Bluey from finding them?
It's more than women's intuition or the fact that I'm a trained psychologist. I'm your friend and I'd like to think I know you a little better by now. Although, I apologize it had to be chocolate. I know how you feel about sweets.
Well, I guess I couldn't say I expected it to go without a hitch, but I'm glad it still worked out in it's own way.
That part though.... is a secret. I can't give away all of my trade secrets after all.
--Athena
[More like she doesn't want to explain her embarrassing display of trying to get in and avoid being seen by them. It would probably make him laugh at her and he'd probably tease her for it. Although, that wasn't so bad.]

[Rin focuses on thinking of Athena, amulet in hand. He's trying to rein in his general glee and excitment just so he can play it cool a little bit, but hiding emotions is not something he's particularly skilled at, so it's likely some is leaky through the connection despite his rather neutral "sounding" tone.]
[There's a few mixed emotions coming from Athena, but one thing is for sure. Athena was definitely happy to hear that.]
That's great! I'm so happy that it worked out for you guys! It's about thing. I almost thought that the chocolate thing was for nothing.
[If she couldn't have who she wanted, one of them should at least be happy, right? And besides, It's not like it was a priority for her or anything...]
Stupidly, I think the chocolates really did help even though we royally confused ourselves over that! [A throaty chuckle.]
But... thanks. For that and well, just being supportive and encouraging before I got up the courage. Though, che, he still kind of coaxed it out of me after all. I guess I was taking too long, heh.
[But that's Haru, doing his own thing at his own pace.]
Of course. [But it's natural for her to deal with her issues by herself if she can anymore.] It would be nice to find someone like you have. I guess I'm more oblivious than I realized I was.
It is my deepest honour to inform you of my date of birth. It is on the 24th of December. While I do not know yet if there shall be a gathering on my behalf, I wish to receive a present of sorts from you. I hope you do not disappoint.

Can you take this to Simon?

Dear Simon,
Thank you. I'll go check that out when I can then. I'll be sure to contact her and Dr. Jude while I'm at it later.
Love always,
- AC
P.S. I gave him a treat for bringing me this. I'm going to give him another this time too. He's not so bad when he's not trying to claw at my face.
[And with that, she tucks the note into his Kerchief again. Offering him another treat after it, she gave Taka a smile.]
Thanks, Taka.
Sent two days after "Valentine's"

Hey, you got a minute? I have news for you.
no subject
Hey sure! What's up!
no subject
Well, he apparently felt the same.
[Yeah, he's way too happy and unable to keep from mentally grinning his fool head off.]
So we're, uh, I guess we're going out now? Heh!
no subject
That's great! I'm so happy that it worked out for you guys! It's about thing. I almost thought that the chocolate thing was for nothing.

[But that's Haru, doing his own thing at his own pace.]
no subject
It had to be those chocolates. As soon as I realized their magical properties, I knew I had to try it.
[But really, despite her slight laughing on her end, she's glad to be there for him.]
Of course! If you ever need help, don't be afraid to ask for it, okay? I've got your back! Either way, it worked out in the end.
no subject
Yeah, I know you do. Thanks for that too, heh.
But hey... You know the same goes for you, right? I know you try to shoulder stuff by yourself, but you've got friends here, okay?
no subject
[Since that time that Klavier found out...]
no subject
He may come back, y'know. Other people have come, gone, then returned, it could happen.
Or... as much as I'd miss seeing you around, maybe you'll make it back to your world like him.
Just don't give up hope before you've even gotten to try, okay?
no subject
[And the last part sticks a bit more than the rest of it, but she gave a faint small.]
I'll just have to wait to see what happens. [And then there was a small pause.] Thanks, Rin. I'd miss you too.
no subject
[He grins a little bit.]
Anyway, thanks. For the rooting for me and just being around, okay?
no subject
Of course! I expect good things, okay?
no subject
[His projection looks and feels a little nervous and tense at the thought.]
Kinda worried since I don't have the best track record, but... I'm going to do my damnedest.
no subject
no subject
Anyway, I wanted to tell you because I'm stupidly happy about it. Just... don't tell him that, hah.
Not like he doesn't already know and he'll probably laugh at me about it anyway.
no subject
no subject
See you soon okay? We should set up a regular run time or something! Pretty sure we're both doing it nearly every day anyway, right?
