Summary: There was someone watching M-21.
Rating: G
Contains: Nothing.
Notes: Set some time after season 2.
I'm using Kim Chin-Mae as M-21's public name. :3 Tao and Takeo use '21' in public according to the novels, but…I'm going to assume that's Tao's doing. XDD; It feels too blatant to me to use! Either that, or they switch up which name to call M-21.

There was someone watching M-21. He was waiting for Takeo and Tao at the school gates as they finished some last minute tasks and he'd sensed someone's gaze on him. M-21 scanned the area, making sure to look like he was only watching a passing car - there.

It was a middle-aged woman, silver starting to line her temples, wrinkles making theirselves known on her face. She was pretending to read a newspaper, but M-21 could tell he had her attention, the way her head kept lifting up a notch every couple of seconds.

She didn't seem dangerous -all the other people who had wanted information from him had either demanded it of him to his face, or had used technology to try and get it- and the way she stood... She wasn't a fighter.

Maybe she was lost and wanted to ask directions? But there were other people who were passing her by that she didn't even glance at.

"Yooooo, Chin-Mae!" That was all the warning M-21 got before Tao slung an arm around his shoulders, letting out a relieved laugh at the same time. "Man, you don't want to know what -"

"And he's not going to find out," Takeo interrupted before Tao continued, coming up on M-21's other side, a pained expression on his face.

Except they all knew that M-21 would, one way or another. It wasn't that he tried particularly hard; it was just that they didn't try to hide things from each other. M-21 smiled at the two continued back and forth, Tao trying to tell him, Takeo cutting him off every time.

As they walked home, M-21 glanced back at the woman, checking to see if she was going to follow.

She wasn't even looking at him anymore, her shoulders slumped, and she'd turned away, walking in the opposite direction.

"Hm?" Tao peered at him. "What's wrong?"

M-21 shook his head. "Nothing."

She'd probably mistaken him for someone else.

Written for the prompt, "Do I know you?"

...Of course M-21 wouldn't approach her. orz Poooossibly a younger friend/little sister of a previous friend. Or his little sister. :|

I sometimes do think that M-21's a lot older than he looks/thinks he is.

*rolls around* All the possibilities, ahhhhh. Though of course M-21 wouldn't approach her. ): Unless she's overly suspicious and seems like she'd threaten people around him, huh?

Though if Tao spots her and keeps seeing her around, I bet he would investigate. =P

"Though of course M-21 wouldn't approach her."
I know. ORZ I really wanted him to.

"Unless she's overly suspicious and seems like she'd threaten people around him, huh?"
Yep. Approaching would mean drawing attention to himself, so.

"Though if Tao spots her and keeps seeing her around, I bet he would investigate. =P"
...
asldkfja;ldskf Oh, jeez, that would be interesting if he did (especially if this is the 'M-21 had black hair before he got his heart' version. XD;;;)
