[when left to his own devices, you could set a clock to Kaito's daily routine. for the people who care enough to remember it, this makes him easy to track down. mid-morning? taking advantage of everyone being in the labs to clean the house. afternoon? quietly watching whichever section of the labs are busiest (or reminding Len to eat lunch, if it's precisely 12 o'clock). late afternoon? in his room, either observing social interaction over the internet or analyzing a movie or tv show.
...except for today, when he's not in his room at all.]

he initially hadn't dared to do more than dream of convincing a few people here, a few Pokemon there— improving a few lives at a time and planting the seeds for ideas that might fully bloom once he'd succeeded in his work as Tesshin. but he'd vastly underestimated several things: the power of word of mouth among all species; the efforts Pokemon would make to be heard, once they knew they were being listened to; and most importantly of all, the fact that most people were kind.
there had been an initial wave of suspicion, of course (Team Plasma was not so easily forgotten); but after repeatedly making his views clear (and reacting rather angrily to one questioner who had asked his thoughts on the sadly common breeder practice of releasing unwanted hatchlings) that had cooled down, and suddenly there were crowds growing and listening in when he stopped to discuss dreams and choices with Pokemon or trainers that looked receptive enough. and if that weren't enough he'd gotten a television interview within a month, another within the same week as the first (thank you, newscaster competition)... and finally, an actual public speaking engagement during a local festival celebrating Pokemon.
it had been the most rewarding thing he'd ever done. it had also been the most terrifying thing he'd ever done. which is why he's just... going to sit down now that he's done and try to wait out the adrenaline rush before he tries doing anything else.]

Aug. 13th, 2012 11:18 am[there's been an attack.
it would be difficult to find words for the sick, conflicted feeling in Len's gut. he knew this would have to happen eventually, Kaito had left angry, in no state to be attentive to his own needs, and there was only one place such an attitude could lead. the nightmare of every conscientious vampire.
and yet at the same time... it gave him a guilty kind of hope.
this was a chance to find his son again.
and so, having gained entry to the hospital, he is knocking on the victim's door.]

[the advantage of being related to a guy who owns horses: having connections with farmers. and farmer's markets. which means food fresh enough it both tastes amazing and actually takes the edge off of the hunger.

Oh, come on! That's just unfair! Mine was announced way before yours, you cheater! Why do I still have to wait?!
[... he seems to be very angry at his computer]
