13th Turn [Action/Written]
[It was cold.
That was his first thought when he woke up in the woods surrounding the Barracks, literally sprawled out in the trees. The cold air bit into his bare hands, stung his ears and his cheeks, and made him miss the summery heat and exotic beaches that were starting to disappear back into his subconscious. This wasn’t the tropics; this was Luceti.
Sleep never looked more welcoming.
It was only when Lupin started to move that he noticed that something important in the world was terribly off. The branches were too big—and where was his coat? The coat was important, and he didn't care about what the Malnosso thought...
He stared at his hand, dumbfounded, when he caught sight of it. Seconds later he yelped in sheer shock and tumbled from the tree and into the snow.
...someone was going to pay for this own.
Chirping and chattering in irritation, Lupin pulled himself from the snow. Anyone care to give a monkey a hand?]
[Later that evening, after he has been returned to his apartment with both himself and his journal intact, Lupin scrawled out a message for the village at large:]
[Written]
Lucky you, Luceti. Looks like I’m not gone yet.
What's the date? I thought they were going to let me spend the winter in Rio, so I wasn't expecting snow.
Did I miss anything?

[He snaps the book shut at this. Goddamn he needed a drink. And a smoke. Not that he was going to get either soon--because he was a good monkey, and good monkeys don't smoke.]

[But there was that indomitable grin.]
We keep going. What can we lose?
no subject
[Well, not strictly true. But losing what he cares about here would make him more determined, not less.]
no subject
Lupin valued his friends, but that just made the intangibles matter even more.]
Exactly. Don't you see what that means?
no subject
Nothing is as damaging as someone with nothing left to lose.
[Or someone with everything to lose, depending on the situation.]
no subject
catmonkey in this situation; there was both nothing and everything for him to lose.]You have it pretty close, but let's not talk about that here. Not when we're both fuzzy.
Besides. We might have years to work with. What's a few more days?
no subject
A meet up when we are both non-fuzzy seems to be in order.
no subject
Irish coffee.
I missed the New Year. Bonne Annee. Oh, and champagne.
How about a few drinks when we're not fuzzy?
no subject
Sounds good to me.
