DID YOU KNOW KILLUA'S AN ASSASSIN???

[gonfreaky]

Heropa was new and new meant exciting-a complete fountain of places to explore. Alleyways, nooks and crannies, hidden storefronts and cellars-Gon had spent the past few weeks as much as he could as often as he could and only now was he running dry. The city was still exciting, sure, but in a different way. No longer were the streets so unknown. The time for his self-amusement had come to an end.

Which really only left him with one thing to do.

When they had first arrived, they had been given jobs. Gon had lucked out. His job was outside the city, on a nature reserve as a "Part-time Junior Ranger" where his job was simply to walk the trails and occasionally lead school groups. He liked it. Definitely liked it a fair amount more than Killua enjoyed his job inside the city, working part-time as a nail filer at "Nailz 2 Die 4". Gon didn't really understand what the place did-grooming to that extent was a luxury he had never been exposed to back on Whale Island-but the storefront had a big window and really? That was all that mattered.

After a short jog across building tops, he trots over to the store, spotting Killua inside easily. Grinning impishly, he knocked on the glass, pressing his face against it when Killus didn't respond to an adequate degree. Slowly, he pressed his cheeks against it, sticking out his tongue, bulging his eyes, even pressing his palms against the glass. All the while groaning out Killua's name in a sickly voice loud enough to creep through the window.

This was some kind of hell.

Gon had it easy with some outdoor job, walking around on trails and leading people on tours through the reserve. Animals, plants, the general outdoors, and general freedom. Of course there had to be rules to follow, but there was no way it could be anything like he was dealing with here! The woman in charge was some hag who constantly yelled at him for how he did things, criticizing his work and giving him lame chores whenever he mouthed off. Damn it...

Even with the customers, it was boring. Boring, boring, boooooring! The lady he was helping now was practically asleep after rambling her mouth off for ages about what she wanted done and how she wanted it done. Now she was reclined in the chair, eyes closed and fingers delicately spread in Killua's palm as he filed away.

The knock at the glass causes him to jump slightly in place, the hand with the nail filer slipping and nearly hacking a good, smooth chunk of her nail off in the process. Luckily, he saves it with a jerk upwards of his arm. Luckily, the customer doesn't seem to notice, and as he brings his hand down immediately to resume his job, his shoulders bunch together and he does his head with a glare at Gon as the display continues.

Idiot!! What was he doing over here while he was busy with this?! If his boss saw this, he'd be scrubbing the floors and picking up nail clippings for weeks!

His free hand raises a finger to his lips in silent yet harsh demand, and he nods with his head to try and sign vaguely to Gon. What are you doing?! Get out of here, you're going to get me in trouble!
