every street lamp seems to beat a fatalistic warning
WHO: Shepard & Kasumi
WHERE: A rooftop somewhere in Heropa.
WHEN: Late evening, pre-Thanksgiving.
WHAT: Kasumi wants to talk to Shepard for a heart to heart. Some things never change.
WARNINGS: References to canon-typical tragedy, nothing else I think!
[ On the Normandy -- both of them -- it had been a matter of course that anyone could drop the Commander a line if they had something on their minds. Whether it was to blow off steam, debrief their last mission, or even just to shoot the shit and share a drink while staring at the galaxy whirling by, Shepard's always made time for his crew.
So when the message from Kasumi comes in, telling him to meet her, he doesn't think twice about accepting. There's the slim possibility that she might be out to get revenge for him tricking her and Jacob into the same room, but even if she is, he'd probably readily admit that she deserves it.
Arguably, being the proverbial straw to break their couch is probably some kind of payback anyway.
When he gets to the rooftop she'd indicated in her message -- not somewhere he's been before, but her instructions were fairly detailed -- he doesn't see her when he looks around. Not that he expected to. It really gives a peculiar sense of deja vu, and he waits for her to announce herself. ]
