- (PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts: hey i wanted to let you know im ok but im gonna be gone for a few days
- (PHONE) Koji Silvia texts: Work thing?
- (PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts: (it takes a minute for a reply, with lots of ... typing) not entirely. i got hurt and i'm going to stay in a hotel room for a little while
- (PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts: going to ground, ish
- (PHONE) Koji Silvia texts: Anything you want from the room, I'll put in a locker at the rail station, send you the code and #.
- (PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts: aww <3 thanks but its ok, guest amenities and whatever has stuff.
- (PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts: i'm mostly going to be sleeping it off i think
- (PHONE) Koji Silvia texts: *Suddenly adds a phone number* This is my mom's number.
- (PHONE) Koji Silvia texts: Emergencies Only.
- (PHONE) Koji Silvia texts: She KNOWS about Obsidian.
- (PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts: are you sure you want me to have that
- (PHONE) Koji Silvia texts: You said going to ground. She knows about that.
- (PHONE) Koji Silvia texts: Some things are more important than how pissed off I am at her,
- (PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts: thanks, man
- (PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts: i really gotta sleep, my head feels like a bomb went off in it
- (PHONE) Koji Silvia texts: Don't stay in any one place more than 2-3 nights. It won't be good for you. For reasons.
- (PHONE) Koji Silvia texts: See you when you get back. I'll make you ramen.
- (PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts: ill be back in a few days. yay! thanks again
Next:
- (PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts: hey so i wanted to let u kno im ok but im gonna be gone for the next few days
- (PHONE) Takashi Agera texts: Should I be worried?
- (PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts: probs not. i had a fite with py-tan. we're both ok but i'm beat.
- (PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts: i remembered almost everything
- (PHONE) Takashi Agera texts: How much of a head trip are you on?
- (PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts: its pretty miserable. the dark energy isnt helping. which btw idk if ditching it is a good idea
- (PHONE) Takashi Agera texts: Either way you might want to have your linker core/dark energy relationship handled by someone competent instead of whatever back-alley energy researcher did it the first time.
- (PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts: lol lol lol it was beryl are you surprised
- (PHONE) Takashi Agera texts: I repeat my previous statement
- (PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts: <3
- (PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts: so its not the energy itself?
- (PHONE) Takashi Agera texts: I don't know anymore, honestly. Maybe you're just not built to handle it at all. But it certainly can't be helping. It's the difference between trying to bake ingredients into a cake, and just throwing all of the ingredients on top and hoping it'll somehow work out. Or something. I don't know, I don't cook.
- (PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts: i didn't want it, takakun. i remember it. i mean it's working fine even if it hurts, I can use that. but if i get rid of it, i wont want it again, and she'll just put it back and make me forget again. so i need to just... keep it.
- (PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts: but it's fine, it really is.
- (PHONE) Takashi Agera texts: That is what I was worried you'd say. You know it's not fine.
- (PHONE) Takashi Agera texts: I'm not one of your Men-erals. You can be honest with me.
- (PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts: that was like
- (PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts: a three-layer pun
- (PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts: well done
- (PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts: it's not fine but i dont have any way to make it fine. remember what i said about something watching
- (PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts: if i could just transfer to your department T___T
- (PHONE) Takashi Agera texts: My department has its own problems. Maybe when it actually *is* my department, but I think I'll have to promise not to take any staff from other people to get that far. Anyways, that plan's less important than this. Mildly. If I can study what's going on with you maybe I can make it suck less without it being easy to tell that anything's changed. It'd be like the second Eldritch entity I've fooled this week. not even a personal record.
- (PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts: you can absolutely study what's going on with me. i just need to die in peace for a few days. im going to a hotel. when i get back let me know what you need me to do.
- (PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts: you are 1000% the best
