Weeks pass, and he doesn't catch a single card.
When cards become active, he goes looking. They just disappear before he gets there.
He's getting worried, and he's not sure he's satisfied with Kero's explanations.
He tries to focus on school.
"So he couldn't be right? There couldn't be a real cardcaptor waiting for me to fail?"
"Alright, time to go home."
Key of the Clow, please respond as if he's the cardcaptor and not an imposter...like it has been, so what would that prove?
Alistair is always on time. He never throws away his shot.
He's a bit underdressed, though. A polo over some khakis.
"Hi."
Well Sadde wasn't expecting him to be taking her to a ball or anything. She's dressed about as well as he is.
"Hello, there."
"I heard there was a pretty girl who needed a escort tonight?"
He tries to keep a straight face.
He leads her to his car, and they drive to a small but charming Italian place.
The waiter seats them promptly.
"Not bad. Some inter-family politics, but you knew that. Kit had a bit of a disagreement with the family after they refused to apologize."
"For putting that on the table? There's this annoying kid, too, that I keep having to deal with at work. I don't know, that's how I've been doing."
