>"I take it a present from Yukari is a somewhat... dubious thing?"
>"I have no idea what it is, and in fact have only really spoken with Yukari once before this morning. But when she learned I would be passing this way..."
>"And I suppose that would be an apt enough description of Tenshi. I suppose none of you have seen her pass by this way within the last little while, then? Not that I would necessarily expect such, but I'm asking more or less everyone I meet, at the moment."
>"Yeah, they can be..." says Maribel.
>"Well, it's pretty light," Maribel says, looking at the box. "Doesn't rattle... And don't worry, it's fine."
>Another person appears at the door, a taller brown-haired young woman wearing a fedora and a dress that is a riot of colors. "Who'd we see, now?"
>"Tenshi, the girl at the bar," says Maribel.
>"Oh, the one who wanted me to help her sneak into Marisa's house."
>"That's her," Maribel says.
>"I think I saw her when I was on my way home a little bit ago," says the brown-haired woman.
