incoming call

No one ever called him.

He jumped from his place on the sofa, face pressed against the cushions.

Eyes scanned the caller I.D. before he relaxed and accepted the call.

“Hello? Mokuba?”

[justicebound-inactive]

“… no. I very much want to be alone,” nearly alone. Jill was on his legs, “thank you for checking in Mokuba. Have any papers been published? Is it…. bad?”

[morbidmokuba]

“Nothing yet. There will be something by tomorrow morning, I can guarantee that.” He didn’t sound happy about that fact. “I’m going to your office at the end of my shift. Do you want me to take anything out of it?” 

Because Ryou did have belongings, and someone would inevitably go rooting around.

[morbidmokuba]

There was a knock on Ayata’s office door, but it wasn’t fully closed so he wasn’t entirely sure if that meant that he could simply step in. Social ettiquette had never been Mokuba’s strong suit. After a moment, the forensic allowed it to creak open and poked his head inside. 

“Ayata.” He greeted. “Is this a bad time?”

He did have staff that he had to keep up with, as the head of his department. Even if it physically pained him to do so sometimes.

“Hello? Mokuba?”

[morbidmokuba]

“Hey.” Mokuba’s voice was a little distorted, meaning that he was probably in the lab. “How are you doing?” 

[justicebound-inactive]

He wasn’t sure why he’d expected Mokuba to be after something. Something work related… anything at all. He thought it strange how people would suddenly stop because something was… happening.

“I’m okay,” he grimaced, “I am.”

[morbidmokuba]

“No you’re not. You will be.” He shifted his phone to his other hand, finding that he didn’t like talking on it at all. “Is there anything you want me to bring you when I finish tonight? It won’t be for another couple of hours.” It was already 8pm, but well, Ryou knew Mokuba.

[morbidmokuba]

"Mokuba! Call the forensics and get the body covered up." Feels shitty for giving him orders and it shows in her voice.

“Right.” 

He was glad she did, having needed the order to get himself moving. 

He had the body covered and removed quickly, knowing for a fact that Ryou was in capable hands with Anzu. There wasn’t a need for an autopsy but he would still need to write up a report and identify the body. 

He never would have trusted another person on the force to be with Ryou after something like this, but she was different. 

Smart, resourceful, and good to Ryou. She was Mokuba’s friend too. 

[morbidmokuba]

... They should probably shut off the cameras.

[justicebound-inactive]

Why do the victims' families sometimes have to wait so long to get the bodies of their loved ones back? I'm talking months.

“Our forensic team is tightly pressed. The work they do is exceptional - if it takes a little longer for the quality they produce I’m afraid it is something I will keep.”

[morbidmokuba]

“I AM AS FAST AS I CAN BE.”

[officeranzumazaki-blog]

"I don't like these things." Rubs the back of his neck. "I can wee why it might be good but it feels too much like citizens looking for a scape goat and playing the blame game."

“I know what you mean.” Keeping one eye on Ryou she spared Mokuba a wry smile. 

“But if we don’t do this thing every so often they just say we’re hiding all the answers. This is their chance to get them and if they waste it we still have proof we did our part.”

[morbidmokuba]

“Nobody cares about his replies. Look at them - they don’t get the replies they want so they stand there with faces like sulking kids….”

[officeranzumazaki-blog]

“Its the mind set of the crowd. So many of them are angry and ignorant its rubbing off on those who actually listen and want to do more than complain.

 It doesn’t look like much but when the crowd disperses people will have time to think about his answers properly and form their own opinions.” 

It was a lame excuse but it was all she had. Outright calling the crowd a bunch of brats could end badly if any microphones picked them up.

[morbidmokuba]

Mokuba nodded to show that he understood, though it didn’t mean that he agreed. He didn’t do well with people at the best of times, and crowds brought out the worst in everyone. 

“He’s doing well despite it...” He tilted his head.

[morbidmokuba]

Awkwardly stands off to the side for moral support. Kind of glances at Anzu and cringes. 

[morbidmokuba]

Remembers that time Ryou brought a weird kid into his lab and he was given dog dust. Still wonders what that was.

[morbidmokuba]

“Nope. Anzu, I think we should name the ship Pizza.”

[officeranzumazaki-blog]

“S.S. Pizza. All the mermaids are going to want a piece.” Looks at Ryou. “Want to be our parrot?”

[justicebound-inactive]

“Parrot is a large come down from Captain,”

[morbidmokuba]

“It’s that or prisoner.”

[officeranzumazaki-blog]

“I’m in.”

[justicebound-inactive]

“MUTINY.”

[morbidmokuba]

“It’s not mutiny if you banned us.”

[morbidmokuba]

“I’m very hurt and I’m going to leave to cry now.” Nods once.

[officeranzumazaki-blog]

“Nice one captain. This is what happens when you don’t allow sex with mermaids.”

[justicebound-inactive]

“…..I don’t see how that is relevant to the current issue. You’re both banned from my boat.”

[morbidmokuba]

“Anzu, you wanna buy a boat together? We can go find mermaids.”

[officeranzumazaki-blog]

“Oh sure. You get a sexy cabin boy but I don’t get one mermaid. This is bull. Mokuba lets mutiny.”

[justicebound-inactive]

Looks Mokuba up and down, “….Anzu. Sexy? Really?”

[morbidmokuba]

Mokuba examined himself too, looking just as surprised. “I’m attractive? To a homosexual woman?”

[morbidmokuba]

[I AM NEVER HERE WHERE DID YOU ALL COME FROM?!]

[morbidmokuba]

“I want to be the cabin boy.”

[officeranzumazaki-blog]

“Dibs on the one that bangs a mermaid.”

[justicebound-inactive]

“No one is allowed to have sex with any mythological creatures. I forbid it.”

[morbidmokuba]

“...K.”
