Naru Osaka has posed:
Yet another random out of the blue TXT from Naru: Not dead yet. Like super not dead, not even enough to bother taking more than baseline not dead. And the news is a lie.

Kazuo Saitou has posed:
TXT from Kazuo: Glad you're super not dead. Which part is a lie?

Naru Osaka has posed:
TXT from Naru: Explosion is a good cover story for levels of weird. The general world isn't ready for that much weird, apparently.

Kazuo Saitou has posed:
TXT from Kazuo: Currently on the way to visit an explosion victim in the hospital. (Not critical.) Will coffee not help? Or do I need to be prepared for the Alien poking its head out of her chest?

Naru Osaka has posed:
TXT to Naru: Coffee will help fine this time. I mean there WAS an explosion, but not a gas leak. More Weird than gas. I hope they heal up quickly. I know one woman was very badly hurt, but we tried to help her as much as we could 'til emergency services got there.

Kazuo Saitou has posed:
TXT from Kazuo: They're thinking she can go home tomorrow or the next day, finish healing up there. Given there was only one hurt that badly, I'd say you did a good job. Does draining energy from concrete make it explosive?

TXT from Kazuo immediately after: Sorry. If you want to talk in person instead, I'll kick my own ass for being a jerk.

Naru Osaka has posed:
TXT from Naru: Nope, the weird monster that burst through the wall like a bad commercial is a lot more messy than it is on TV.

TXT from Naru: You're on your way somewhere, so I'll bother you by text and be lazy rather than go out again to bother you. Although if you want company at the hospital, I'm willing to put on shoes.

Kazuo Saitou has posed:
TXT from Kazuo: ... the mall got destroyed by an archaic American soft drink mascot? I ... what?

Naru Osaka has posed:
TXT from Naru: Only if that mascot was full of teeth and black and kinda oozed. But It did make me think of the American commercial, after the fact.

Kazuo Saitou has posed:
TXT from Kazuo: Right. If the hospital patient is oozing anything nonstandard, check and see if you want a sample. Got it.

Naru Osaka has posed:
TXT from Naru: Awww, that's so sweet! I'm now not sure if I hope they aren't or if I hope they are.
