Unravel (1x1 w/ Jikkah)

[DarkMudkip]

On a day Susuma was being particularly loud, there was a knock on her door.
"No, don't answer. Stay here." He begged.

 

[Jikkah]

Jin sat on the couch with her knees to her chest, silently listening to Susuma while avoiding looking at him. She stared at the door for a moment longer before standing and moving over to the door, opening it to see who was outside.

 

[DarkMudkip]

Matsunaga was standing there, smiling softly.
"Greetings, Kawabe-sousakan."
"Make him leave!!" Susuma was screaming now, "Send him away!!"

 

[Jikkah]

Jin flinched at Susuma’s screaming, holding her head as it started to throb. “Matsunaga-sousakan..” She cleated her throat and looked up at him, her bags having only gotten worse. “What are you doing here..?”

 

[DarkMudkip]

"I came to check on you. The other investigators were worried about you." He told her.

 

[Jikkah]

A soft scowl formed on her face, gripping the door handle firmly. “Oh? Why were they worried?” She asked.

 

[DarkMudkip]

"You look sick." He stated flatly, "Have you seen yourself lately?"

 

[Jikkah]

“It’s just the jet lag getting to me, I’ll be fine.” She said softly. “It won’t affect my work.”

 

[DarkMudkip]

He made a noise, "Have your medications been working?"

 

[Jikkah]

Her eyes widened slightly, before an angry scowl crossed over her face. “What concern to you is my medical needs?”

 

[DarkMudkip]

"I am merely concerned." He stated, "Again, you look unwell."

 

[Jikkah]

“My medical records aren’t public information.” She said shortly. “So how did you become aware of them?”

 

[DarkMudkip]

"As your partner, I am allowed to know all that I can about you." He stated.

 

[Jikkah]

“Medical history is not apart of that!” She snapped at him, her frustration having built from the hours of Susuma endlessly droning on.

 

[DarkMudkip]

"How do you figure?" He asked, brows furrowed in confusion.

 

[Jikkah]

“Because my private medical records aren’t just out on display, and I don’t appreciate you digging to find them either.” She said firmly.

 

[DarkMudkip]

"Though you are my partner, and medical information is vital for me to know of if we are to work together." He said.

 

[Jikkah]

“That’s doesn’t give you access to my personal records- it’s a breach of confidentiality.” She scowled. “I’m reporting this.”

 

[DarkMudkip]

"No. I don't think you will. Especially if you want those awful hallucinations to stop." How did he know about Susuma?

 

[Jikkah]

She felt her body go cold, eyes wide; she wanted to slam the door on his face, but she couldn’t move. “What did you do?”

 

[DarkMudkip]

"Played with your pills. Took out the things that keep your past at bay. Keep you on your toes."
"Kill him, Jin-chan!! Kill for me like you used to!!"

 

[Jikkah]

Every time he yelled, her head throbbed; grinding her teeth, she clutched her head, glaring at Matsunaga. “What do you want? What do you get out of all of this..?”

 

[DarkMudkip]

"A fun little show." He said, "I want to see what you're capable of."

 

[Jikkah]

Jin felt like she was going to burst, closing the door without a word she was so overwhelmed and angry.

 

[DarkMudkip]

How could this happen? Why would he do this? Did he get some kind of sick pleasure from it? What had he to gain?
