(PHONE)Hinoiri Kirara: Hey, Takashi. Got a few minutes?

(PHONE)Takashi Agera: Uhh. Depends. To text or do you need me to fix something

(PHONE)Hinoiri Kirara: Nothing you can fix, something I'm trying to. I uhhhh, needed a bit of... well. How has Norie been? Has she seemed good? Any... worse? Mention me at all?

(PHONE)Takashi Agera: Norie-chan? She's... been alright. I think. For her. You know, sometimes it's hard to tell? But she's doing her research and seems... normal

(PHONE)Hinoiri Kirara: Okay, then I need some advice. You uhhh... remember before, when she kidnapped me? And threw me into a wall and stuff? And it kind of resulted in people finding out I was Sunbreaker?

(PHONE)Takashi Agera: I'm kind of aware. I know Norie was doing some stuff without running it through me, anyways

(PHONE)Hinoiri Kirara: So, I... wasn't in the best headspace after that. I confronted her, she yelled at me, I yelled back, things escalated and... I... well. I was full of a lot of dark energy at the time and I... did... something pretty bucked up. I... want to apologize, try to make it up to her. But I'm not even sure if I can. Or... if that's the right thing. If she's forgotten about it, then bringing it up might hurt her more, you know?

(PHONE)Takashi Agera: I guess it kinda depends on exactly what you did. People say a lot of stuff in yelling times, but it sounds like more than words. She didn't come to me about it, I don't think.

(PHONE)Hinoiri Kirara: ... It... was pretty... terrible. I... well. Okay, so I was in a really foul mood, I felt insulted, I'd spent days as her prisoner, only to have my identity revealed after and I... so... I really, really wanted to hurt her.

(PHONE)Hinoiri Kirara: ... And I got donuts from Kirakirafantastica and I gave her three of them.

(PHONE)Takashi Agera: *very long pause*

(PHONE)Hinoiri Kirara: .... And while she ate one of them, it cured her, I think.

(PHONE)Takashi Agera: you did not.

(PHONE)Takashi Agera: you did not do the thing I specifically and clearly told you not to do

(PHONE)Takashi Agera: you're not that dumb.

(PHONE)Hinoiri Kirara: ... I... was in a really, really, really bad headspace and I really just... wanted to hurt her in the worst way possible. I wasn't thinking.

(PHONE)Hinoiri Kirara: But I mean, well... the fact she was kind of cured while eating it is a good sign, right? Like, it shows she can, maybe, be helped?

(PHONE)Takashi Agera: it would be if you had more. do you have more? do you have data? Did you take information during this?

(PHONE)Hinoiri Kirara: Well... no... I don't. The portal hasn't opened since I went Sunset and... I don't know if it will open again. Its been months. I... didn't scan anything. I doubt she has any of them left.

(PHONE)Takashi Agera: *very long pause*

(PHONE)Takashi Agera: So you made Norie miserable by not only going after the only thing that sparks joy in her life, but also gave her a taste of being cured. you did this ignoring explicit instructions from me. you did this out of petty spite. and in doing so you wasted a chance to actually help her.

(PHONE)Hinoiri Kirara: In... in my defense, I didn't think it'd cure her. I just thought I was going to ruin the one thing that really brought her joy, make her suffer for... oh Sora...

(PHONE)Takashi Agera: That's a terrible defense.

(PHONE)Takashi Agera: She's one of MY employees. one of MY help projects

(PHONE)Hinoiri Kirara: Yeah. Yeah, it is. It was monstrous and I was a terrible person for doing it. If I could, I would undo having done it. But... I can't. So... do I apologize? Or do I hope she's forgotten?

(PHONE)Takashi Agera: I don't know how you could possibly apologize for that. like. I am stunned

(PHONE)Hinoiri Kirara: A... fruit basket? Maybe? Or... like... ummmm... what else does she like?

(PHONE)Takashi Agera: NOTHING. SHE LIKES. NOTHING. NOTHING ELSE MAKES HER REALLY SMILE

(PHONE)Takashi Agera: starting to think you were right about not touching dark energy ever again if you are like this on it

(PHONE)Hinoiri Kirara: ... I... I... yeah. I... know it was monstrous. I know it was wrong. I'm sorry, I really, truly am. But I don't know how to fix it.

(PHONE)Takashi Agera: yeah, go back to KKF and bring more donuts so we can fix her. OH WAIT THE PORTALS BROKEN

(PHONE)Hinoiri Kirara: I... I know. I would if I could.

(PHONE)Hinoiri Kirara: But it isn't like she hasn't tried to kill me. Like, twice.

(PHONE)Takashi Agera: Yeah and I JUST told her she wasn't allowed to kill anyone but now I'm thinking I may have been a little premature on that

(PHONE)Hinoiri Kirara: What, so now you're going to send her to try and kill me? Maybe she should get in line, let someone else take a few more cracks at it.

(PHONE)Hinoiri Kirara: ... Sorry. I didn't mean that. Just... if... the portal opens, I'll get her some more of the donuts.

(PHONE)Takashi Agera: words are failing me for how angry I am right now.

(PHONE)Hinoiri Kirara: That's how I felt when I did it.

(PHONE)Takashi Agera: kinda starting to see how you might have gotten thrown out

(PHONE)Hinoiri Kirara: I... that... I wasn't...

(PHONE)Takashi Agera: just attack her back like a normal person. but no you went after her soul, her joy. AND I SPECIFICALLY. EXPLICITLY. DIRECTLY. SAID. DO NOT DO THAT THING

(PHONE)Takashi Agera: Did you start taking lessons from that damn clown?

(PHONE)Hinoiri Kirara: ... I know. I'm sorry. You were right. Clown?

(PHONE)Takashi Agera: Joker. doesn't matter I'm just upset

(PHONE)Takashi Agera: you owe me for the table I just smashed.

(PHONE)Takashi Agera: you owe norie a lot more

(PHONE)Hinoiri Kirara: ... I'll do what I can. You have my research on Norie, if I can get more donuts, I'll send them. So... I'm guessing... I should leave her alone until then?

(PHONE)Takashi Agera: you better leave me alone for about a week too

(PHONE)Hinoiri Kirara: What? Busy?

(PHONE)Takashi Agera: you might end up like the table

(PHONE)Hinoiri Kirara: ... I see. I... understand. See you later, maybe.

(PHONE)Takashi Agera: MESSAGE COULD NOT BE DELIVERED.
