Suki slapped her forehead. "You know, you might as well come with me."
((NOOOOO when will you be back?))

"All right," said Ito dreamily. "I don't have anything better to do."

Suki smiled nervously. "O-okay, j-just don't... well, I'm going to talk to a publisher, so if you don't mind, you can't blow anything up."

"Okay," said Ito, still staring out the window. "I'm not in a blowing-stuff-up-mood, anyway. I'm in more of a set-things-on-fire mood. But I suppose that won't be allowed either. So I'll just... observe the world around me..."

"O-okay," Suki stammered, a huge sweatdrop on her head. "You do that! I hope you realize that we can't go all ninja here, right?"

"I know. It's because it'd be insensitive to the natives, since they wouldn't understand and, thanks to the nature of humans, would probably freak out and destroy our entire civilization." Completely serious, he said, "It would probably be amusing, but Naya wouldn't be happy with us."

"Okay." Suki twitched. She placed a hand on Ito's shoulder. "Just stay calm."

"I will," said Ito calmly. "I don't get like that... usually. Unless someone REALLY"--he turned to face Suki for the first time, his flashing, creepy eyes hitting her like a spotlight--"annoys me."

"O... KAY! Well, I won't annoy you then, Ito-kun." She started laughing verrah nervously.

"Yes. You are wise to do so, Suki Hasagawa." He smiled slightly, but this somehow altogether only gave him the impression of someone with dirrerhea. "Yes..." He resumed staring out the window once more.

Suki twitched again. *I just hope he acts normal at the publisher's. What will the others think? What will Princeton think?"

A few minutes later, the train skidded to a hault. Ito wandered aimlessly off before he even knew if it was his stop or not, having to do a sort of sideways pirouette to stop himself from crashing into the wall he'd only at the last second noticed was in front of him.

Suki ran off the subway and grabbed Ito's arm. "Here, come on." She walked up the stairs and gripped her folder so tightly her knuckles turned white. She saw a man in a suit and tapped him on the shoulder. "Excuse me, sir?"

The man's head jerked around to face her, but he didn't stop walking. "Who are you?"

Suki sighed. "My name is Suki Hasagawa and, uh... I was wondering where to find the nearest... publisher or publishing business?" She felt a certain condifence, even though this man was intimidating and quite rude.
