What a week. Watari had an experiment go awry. On guess who? Me. Well it was my fault kind of, for letting a giant marshmellow get ahold of me when I tried to get it away from Watari. Even worse, I ate the marshmellow. I mean, it was trying to eat me too. It was just the first thing I could think of.
And...well.... I turned into a puppy.
And that's about all I remember. Hisoka said my mind had been very puppy like-- or baby-like. I must have transformed completely, mind and body.
From everyone's account, Watari and Hijiri were deathly afraid that Hisoka would kill them again if he found out I'd been transformed. Watari accidentally transformed Hijiri into a rabbit when trying to give me an antidote. So with Hijiri and I out of the running Watari tried to keep the seceret. One problem:
He was chasing me in the hall with a shot gun loaded with tranquilizers. Hisoka saw him and took me home. Hijiri went with Watari, and became the experiment for the cure. Once they'd found one, Hijiri snuck into our apartment the next day during work to feed me an antidote...
And since I'd been out all night and the next morning, everyone was worried sick. When questioned about me, Watari and Hijiri kept their silence and feigned no idea. Hisoka, worried that maybe something had happened went back home to check for me once more. He found Hijiri trying to feed me the antidote and was angry for his breaking and entering. When he realized I was Tsuzuki, his fire of fury was lit and thus.....
Hijiri and Watari were suspended from work for a week with no pay. Watari's never to use the lab for anything but work without personal experiments, and I'm banned from ever going in there again unless Konoe gives me permission.
Hisoka was livid that they'd lied, and Konoe was not very happy either.
But now things have settled. Hijiri and Watari had the weekend to think about things, as did Hisoka and I. I stopped by their place Sunday, to talk to them, to apologize somewhat for Hisoka's anger. I don't think he realized just how badly they would get in trouble. They deserved punishment, yes, but I think the suspension was a little too much. Afterall, they did fix me. Watari's rent was due this week......... So since he'd not get his paycheck, I pulled together all the savings I managed to keep over this 70 year term, and paid it for him as I left their apartment.
Today they didn't come in to work as scheduled, so the office was quiet. Hisoka and I had a talk tonight over it, and I think he feels bad. We then went out to dinner after that, to talk more about it, but we didn't say much else. Hell, hardly anything at all.
But it was okay. He let me kiss him goodnight at his bedroom door. Heh. He's cute when he blushes.
