[IC] [Old Radio/Waiting in Earth Crossover]

**After the Kraken was dealt with, the slightly battered ship finally reached English shores. It was time to thank the Captain for everything he had done, say farewell, and put KAITO's wheelchair to the test. They're unloading everything they'll need for exploring.**

[Mekaito is wandering around the lobby, not finding much either. He picks up a magazine, staring at its cover blankly]

[She glances at what he's looking at before leaning back in her seat. A white ceiling.

She turned her head. A television that wasn't turned on.

.....]

[abovethewall]

[It seems to be an old copy of "People" magazine, featuring the 100 most beautiful people of some year long past. He flips through it a little, not really getting it]

... Will this take long?

[leftsleeping.livejournal.com]

I don't know, [she admits.] Maybe.

[.....] Wanna go outside?

[abovethewall]

Okay.

[leftsleeping.livejournal.com]

[She looks all too relieved to hear him agree. She hops up and stretches before holding out her hand.]

Where do you think we should go first?

[abovethewall]

... What is there?

[he's never been in a town that isn't abandoned - the time spent in Kaito's city, he was under a coat. :|]

[leftsleeping.livejournal.com]

I don't know... maybe stores? We can look around and see.

[abovethewall]

Good idea. We can report back to Master concerning locations of interest.

[leftsleeping.livejournal.com]

Yep! [she leads the way, heading down the halls and trying to retrace the way they came in.]

What kinds of places are interesting to you, Little Kaito?

[abovethewall]

[thinks, and then raises an index finger meaningfully]

I prefer places that have supplies to places with junk. Master is happier when we go to those.

[leftsleeping.livejournal.com]

[What a cute gesture. She smiles at him.] Really? I guess because he's interested in robots.

...I wonder if he's going to build one someday?

[abovethewall]

[well honestly, those are the only two kinds of places Mekaito knows about. However, this suggestion surprises him]

... Would he do that?

[leftsleeping.livejournal.com]

I don't know, maybe. He fixed my brother's leg, and he keeps trying to learn more about robots, so maybe he will.

What do you think?

[abovethewall]

I think he does those things for us.

[leftsleeping.livejournal.com]

For us? [....] I guess so. He was really worried when my brother was hurt, wasn't he? He probably feels the same way for you too.

[abovethewall]

You too, Miku.

...

Maybe he could make me taller, though.

[leftsleeping.livejournal.com]

[She laughs.] How much taller do you want to be?

[abovethewall]

[hummm]

Miku's height!

[leftsleeping.livejournal.com]

Really? [Somehow that delights her. She feels like a role model, somehow.] It's a good height! You can reach things better, too.

[abovethewall]

[he nods]

I'll be taller, but I won't be too big for my wings.

[leftsleeping.livejournal.com]

He should just build you new wings. Bigger ones, like an angel!

[abovethewall]

???

What is an angel?

[leftsleeping.livejournal.com]

Oh! They're supposed to be really special beings. They look like people with large wings and they're nice.

I got to dress up as one a few times when I had to sing.

[abovethewall]

Miku had wings?
