>>19284953The bus is warmer than the street outside, but that's not saying much. Fortunately, this line goes to the central hub downtown, just a little ways from the WWA Apartments. Or a little ways from the Dojo.
As the bus rolls on, Carmody Jefferson pulls out her cell phone. She didn't answer most of the questions on her mind, but she's a little bit closer now. It does feel like she's at a bit of an impasse. She doesn't quite believe Priscilla, that jealousy is Kanako's motivation; and furthermore, she has no reason to doubt that Sola and Paule and Ash are solid. Even Kuro Noire, or Enoki, whatever she should be called; she seems like truly an odd person, but also a decent one who Carmody hoped to get to know better. But it doesn't seem like she'll get any more answers about Kanako, or Nika, from Priscilla.
She pulls out her cell phone and dashes off a text while she's riding on the bus.
Text Message from Carmody Jefferson to Kanako Leichenburg:
>Hey Kanako.>I know you broke into the Divine Mansion and took Nika away days before you ever became a tag team with her.>There's video evidence. I've seen it.>I don't understand any of this, and I can't help you, or even know if I should, until I do.>If you hate me and are doing this just to fuck with me, congratulations: it worked. You can admit it now and we can get down to brass tacks.>But I don't believe that's what's going on.>Can we talk somewhere PRIVATE soon? Like really REALLY private?>Or just tell me to fuck off if that's how it is and I'll deal with it.
