Why is it my fault?! I haven't done anything! I just say the same things as I do back home!
[but he just frowns at that and grumbles]
That wasn't what I meant to do, but it's also true. [HE INVALIDATED BOTH TAKERU AND LUCA INSTANTLY] But we've been practicing just in case that happens anyway.
[but he can admit that it's better to not be seen as a target at all rather than underestimated so after another second he frowns deeper]
[ he goes quiet, but he's still obviously annoyed.
... but when he talks again, his tone is more cold. ]
I'm going to come up with a code, in case I'm targeted. My plan is to leave an unsent text on my phone if I'm able to open it without my attacker noticing. Once I come up with a code, I'll let you know. I'm also going to tell it to Grace and Harrowhark, in case any of you are also targeted.
[ sometimes you come up with a backup plan beforehand in case you mcdie because you want your killer caught ]
[ . . . . . . . . he pauses at that, before he nods.]
Okay.
[it's part of why he said he'd use his power for the same thing.]
... we get two powers each. So if you wanna replace the one you got from the event, ask another Avatar for one. Maybe you can get something damning, too.
[and then.]
... and Sloth-san said... even if someone loses their life here, it's probably not impossible to get them back. [ . . . . ] I won't accept it if anything happens to you.
[he's getting used to it, but he's also not going to stop saying it!
he shakes his head]
Nothing as direct as that... not for lack of trying, for the record. Just that I was told to keep indulging, which I'm taking to mean that maybe we can accumulate enough power to get people back.
... have you had any luck getting more answers out of the Avatars...? I think - each week the floors that open up are related to the Avatar that's stuck overseeing us. I got confirmation on that much.
But I still haven't gotten any closer to figuring out the whole... 'why' behind them being here. Sloth-san said they just felt like it, but I don't know about the rest.
You and White-kun don't seem to like him though. [and here he thought gojou was pretty nice! though as he pauses to think about something...] Actually, I think it kind of makes sense why you don't like him.
That room's kinda big, right? So it'll just help to have extra eyes while you take care of what you need. Maybe we'll actually get answers instead of just seeing a weird vision...

[ he takes an angry sip of the coffee. ]
Actually, you can stop saying that I can't take people in a fight. Do you want people to see me as an easy target?
[ APPARENTLY HE'S
BEEN MAD ABOUT MINEO SAYING THAT TAKERU COULD HAVE NEVER TAKEN ON GRELL ]

[ he is once again ignoring everything mineo has said that is emotional and is instead latching onto the plot. ]
Do you know how we could get someone back?

[ his frown deepens. ]
They probably have reasons, like we do.
no subject
Mahito-san says that there were people here before us - other cycles of races. They talked to Despair-san about it.
So I wonder why they're still here...?
no subject
Well, we can see if we can figure that out.
[ although it's kind of a pain on top of trying to figure out the fuckin murders ]
no subject
.... a lot of the answers are vague but - Sloth-san said they're all trying their best....
I guess all we can do is notice patterns, right?
no subject
[ so many different things to pay attention to at once. ]
I want to go check out the computers in one of the new rooms later. I was going to do it yesterday, but...
[ he got drunk and made out with mineo instead ]
no subject
Ah - right. I was gonna go investigating with Gojou-san. I think White-kun and Endorsi also split up and are gonna look around this week too.
Wanna head out with us? I figure you can do more with the computers in that room than either of us anyway.
no subject
[ he doesn't sound too excited at the idea, but there's no reason to say no. ]
no subject
I can't tell if Gojou-san is popular or unpopular....

You and White-kun don't seem to like him though. [and here he thought gojou was pretty nice! though as he pauses to think about something...] Actually, I think it kind of makes sense why you don't like him.
He kinda reminds me of Shiraishi-san.
no subject
[ he shakes his head. ]
But I'll deal with it.

he nods at that easily enough]

[ his hangover ]
no subject
Yeah, that sounds good. I'll text Gojou-san when we're ready to go.
I think I can spare some more painkillers if you really need them...
no subject
[ he takes another sip of his coffee, emptying the cup. takeru sets it aside on the table. ]
You get along with Sloth, right?
no subject
Yeah. But Sloth-san's not hard to get along with, to be honest....
Why?
