The Utaku took a deep breath, and shook her head. "I don't think they did. But, they got a name, a face... that will help. The Lion, and the Phoenix, will have my assistance in this - Matsu-san was a good friend. The least thing I can do is to bring her killer to justice." Still, the sense of guilt was deep and evident in her voice, and it would probably not ease away swiftly.

Yul came back, walking the bike. He brought it up right to where Hyeon-ju was; he didn't figure she'd accept help, but this seemed fine.

"You ready?" He asked softly.

Anger clips the Osprey's voice tight. "_They_ have let this fester here, and bear the blame of it. You two paid the price of shining a light on it." She'll step back to leave space for dealing with the bike.

Hyeon-ju didn't quite understand all of what Mumei was saying, as not everything had been revealed to her, but she wasn't going to start an argument. Because it felt like she would be having a similar discussion as she often had with Yul.

"... I'm ready." A bit shakily, she stood up and put the blanket aside. At least the night air was warm, which was a small blessing.

In typical Unicorn-fashion, the Utaku put a hand on Mumei's shoulder. "Please don't act rashly, Nakauchi-san. Enough death has happened tonight." She was worried that the Osprey would be as overconfident and wild as Yul right now, and the last thing she wanted was for her wingmate to lose what he had found.

She takes the unexpected touch in stride, even patting Hyeon-ju's hand in reassurance. "I'm taking the well-lit streets and only risking my wallet a bit at the shop on the way. I'll be sending some messages, but I'm not the 'stalking the midnight streets for vengeance' type."

"Besides, I'll feel better knowing, Yul...ah, Shinjo-sama's got a task to keep him busy instead of trying to hunt anything down." The raised eyebrow and half a smile are only half-teasing.

When Hyeon-ju set aside the blanket, Yul immediately shrugged off his jacket, offering it to her. He chuckled, smiling somewhat ruefully, at Mumei's comment. "Guess you've gotten to know me pretty well, huh?"

He mounted the bike, swinging one leg over the back, offering Hyeon-ju his arm in case she was feeling unsteady. "Okay. See you soon. Nakauchi-san." His lips curled up into a smile.

She nodded to the two of them, accepting the jacket and zipping it up for some modesty. Maybe it had been a good investment that she got Yul that new jacket.

"Thank you once again, Nakauchi-san... I hope we can speak again other... different circumstances." The Osprey seemed a nice person, at least that was the impression Hyeon-ju had now.

Balancing herself a little one Yul's arm, she climbed aboard the bike, and after some adjustments signalled she was ready by her arms around the Shinjo's waist. If they hadn't been Unicorn this would've been really awkward.

For her part, the Osprey offered Yul a small grin. "Maybe a bit. The formal 'Nakauchi-san' sounded so odd now from him."

"I'll see you both in a bit, and yeah, hopefully there will be some other time during the miai to meet, Utaku-sama." She offers a wave. "But don't wait up if sleep wants to settle in." She's pretty sure there's about zero chance of Yul not waiting up."

"Oh," Yul said, his tone casual, his lips twitching just a little. "I think I can stay up just a little bit later."

And then, with a flash of his trademark grin, they were off, the motorcycle humming as Yul and Hyeon-ju sped away.
