I know you're not new here, so that leaves either a traumatic brain injury that's impaired your short-term memory, or you're just deeply and fundamentally stupid.
[Then there's just a full thirty seconds of silence except for the sound of Mello's angry breathing. Did you know breathing could sound angry? Well, now you do.]
Name-calling would sound more like this: You're an empty-headed twit. What I did was describe two potential states of being - both of which seem equally likely, by the way.
Yeah, but it sure looks like you did. [ and there's only so many logical conclusions they can come to. sharon's immediate is: gods, those fuckers. ]

And you're still evading the question. Don't you think it's a little childish not to own your mistakes, Mello?
[She's out prowling the streets, as she is fairly often: exercising her hyenas, hunting the smaller monsters to keep them fed, rummaging the shops.
Except it's not the rodents of unusual size she's stalking today. She sticks to the city itself, spiralling out from the residential areas. It's not that large a city, and wherever he's been hiding, Bianca knows he'll have to come out occasionally. And sooner or later, he'll do it in her line of sight.]
