(PHONE) Takashi Agera texts to Mamoru Chiba: Are you still alive?!

(PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts to Takashi Agera: uh yes

(PHONE) Takashi Agera texts to Mamoru Chiba: is Sailor Moon there with you now?

(PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts to Takashi Agera: im literally down the hall from you, you dont have to act like a couple of weeks is-- what?

(PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts to Takashi Agera: no?

(PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts to Takashi Agera: are you okay??

(PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts to Takashi Agera: do you need me to come get you from something??

(PHONE) Takashi Agera texts to Mamoru Chiba: I am, I'm just hoping you are. I'm worried about what if she got your phone. and you're already gone. but it would be hard to imitate you for long anyways.

(PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts to Takashi Agera: wtf she wouldnt do anything to me unless i was like. killing people

(PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts to Takashi Agera: what is this about what happened

(PHONE) Takashi Agera texts to Mamoru Chiba: Dude, Firefly went out with one of the Witches and ran into Sailor Moon and some of the others and they killed Cyprine. like dead into dust dead. Kaolinite had to rescue Firefly and the trauma almost triggered her darkness problem. Shattered her device keeping it under control.

(PHONE) Takashi Agera texts to Mamoru Chiba: She's in shock. a lot of us are.

(PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts to Takashi Agera: what the fuck was cyprine doing?? and i mean. do you even like cyprine i thought you hated the 5

(PHONE) Takashi Agera texts to Mamoru Chiba: dude there's a pretty wide gap between not liking someone on your team and wanting to see them atomized by the other team. she was just collecting crystals. the safer version of the gun. same stuff I've been doing

(PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts to Takashi Agera: who else was there

(PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts to Takashi Agera: maybe i can find out what happened. moon isn't psycho

(PHONE) Takashi Agera texts to Mamoru Chiba: Firefly. and she mentioned some of the other planet girls. and Stellar who is apparently not a planet girl like the others.

(PHONE) Takashi Agera texts to Mamoru Chiba: I'm sure you think that but you're also head over heels for her. I'm not sure you'd see her doing bad things if she did them to you directly

(PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts to Takashi Agera: ill ask stellar then

(PHONE) Takashi Agera texts to Mamoru Chiba: Just stay safe. Kaolinite is pretty sure it was moon. the others weren't nearby what was left of Cyprine.

(PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts to Takashi Agera: im pretty sure i fucking know when people i trusted do bad things to me directly :P im gonna find out what happened if i have to ditch all my dark energy and ask the asphalt

(PHONE) Takashi Agera texts to Mamoru Chiba: Don't yell at me because I worried about you.

(PHONE) Takashi Agera texts to Mamoru Chiba: You walked around with a literal death curse for ages. You do not always make the most you-centric decisions

(PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts to Takashi Agera: im sorry. im frustrated and worried and ive got a lot more dark energy than im used to right now

(PHONE) Takashi Agera texts to Mamoru Chiba: why are you playing with the wasps again

(PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts to Takashi Agera: because my cute little death-curse is in trouble and im going to have to go after her

(PHONE) Takashi Agera texts to Mamoru Chiba: I rest my case

(PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts to Takashi Agera: lmao you sound like zoisite rn

(PHONE) Takashi Agera texts to Mamoru Chiba: I'm not sure if I'm complimented or offended

(PHONE) Takashi Agera texts to Mamoru Chiba: but at least now I know it's you. that's such a you thing.

(PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts to Takashi Agera: like all of this conversation has been a me thing

(PHONE) Takashi Agera texts to Mamoru Chiba: Sure. just be careful with yourself. you're already playing with a lot of fires.

(PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts to Takashi Agera: do you want me to check in with you until this shit gets figured out?

(PHONE) Takashi Agera texts to Mamoru Chiba: Yes. I would love to hear the other side of it if you can get it safely. but don't let them fool you. some shit happened. Firefly was like. not in a good space from seeing it.

(PHONE) Takashi Agera texts to Mamoru Chiba: It's legit though. Tomoe called a meeting and they were changing the sign on the door. I have to meet with my people soon.

(PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts to Takashi Agera: I'll find out safely.

(PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts to Takashi Agera: Shit

(PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts to Takashi Agera: Good luck, bro.

(PHONE) Takashi Agera texts to Mamoru Chiba: Don't you dare haunt me if you die because of something I warned you about either

(PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts to Takashi Agera: can i haunt you if it was something you didnt warn me about

(PHONE) Takashi Agera texts to Mamoru Chiba: I Guess. I think that's the rule anyways

(PHONE) Takashi Agera texts to Mamoru Chiba: on that note your boss is nucking futs and playing around with leaving is dangerous too

(PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts to Takashi Agera: who's playing around with leaving? is this about me divesting myself of Global Help, because i have a better plan im putting into motion

(PHONE) Takashi Agera texts to Mamoru Chiba: Good. plans are good.

(PHONE) Takashi Agera texts to Mamoru Chiba: Sometimes they even work

(PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts to Takashi Agera: global help was working, it just wasn't doing enough. gonna re-invest the last of the profits

(PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts to Takashi Agera: anyway

(PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts to Takashi Agera: good luck in your meeting. i hope you get a promotion, you could use some more mundane lab space

(PHONE) Takashi Agera texts to Mamoru Chiba: yeah thanks. maybe. but be safe

(PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts to Takashi Agera: i'll be even more careful than usual. i realize that is a low bar. i'll be as careful as possible

(PHONE) Takashi Agera texts to Mamoru Chiba: That'll do. See you soon.

(PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts to Takashi Agera: <salute.gif>

(PHONE)Mamoru Chiba texts to Usagi Tsukino: okay, chocolate after school.

(PHONE)Mamoru Chiba texts to Usagi Tsukino: riventon texted me last night

(PHONE)Mamoru Chiba texts to Usagi Tsukino: given the fact that you are not falling all apart i cant imagine what he said happened is actually what happened

(PHONE)Usagi Tsukino texts to Mamoru Chiba: what did he say?!

(PHONE)Usagi Tsukino texts to Mamoru Chiba: he told you i killed them didn't i i KNEW they would say that

(PHONE)Mamoru Chiba texts to Usagi Tsukino: i mean yeah but he just said cyprine

(PHONE)Mamoru Chiba texts to Usagi Tsukino: did more than one die? o.O

(PHONE)Usagi Tsukino texts to Mamoru Chiba: well there was a red haired girl and a blue haired girl

(PHONE)Usagi Tsukino texts to Mamoru Chiba: i didn't get their names but they kind of looked like twins?

(PHONE)Usagi Tsukino texts to Mamoru Chiba: anyway i did not kill either of them!! i tried to save the red one but i couldn't because she got *disintegrated*

(PHONE)Mamoru Chiba texts to Usagi Tsukino: idk maybe one didnt die? i dont know much about them. i'll ask riv. but you didnt kill them

(PHONE)Usagi Tsukino texts to Mamoru Chiba: no! i didn't! but it might be my fault anyway because i should have tried to help witht his ages and ages ago and

(PHONE)Mamoru Chiba texts to Usagi Tsukino: i didnt think so. i mean maybe they are secretly youma i have legit no idea

(PHONE)Mamoru Chiba texts to Usagi Tsukino: slow down

(PHONE)Usagi Tsukino texts to Mamoru Chiba: mamochan i have to ask you a question.

(PHONE)Usagi Tsukino texts to Mamoru Chiba: no, i mean - who *is* she.

(PHONE)Usagi Tsukino texts to Mamoru Chiba: mamochan she killed those girls.

(PHONE)Usagi Tsukino texts to Mamoru Chiba: something was really, really, really wrong with her.

(PHONE)Mamoru Chiba texts to Usagi Tsukino: ... FIREFLY did???

(PHONE)Mamoru Chiba texts to Usagi Tsukino: oh

(PHONE)Mamoru Chiba texts to Usagi Tsukino: ill ask himeko i think there was something-- fuck i cant ask himeko

(PHONE)Usagi Tsukino texts to Mamoru Chiba: firefly did.

(PHONE)Usagi Tsukino texts to Mamoru Chiba: they were terrified of her. and then she disintegrated them.

(PHONE)Mamoru Chiba texts to Usagi Tsukino: yeah you said there was something really wrong with her. i believe it. ill ask zoisite too. apparently he set something off with her too, riv yelled at me about it months ago

(PHONE)Usagi Tsukino texts to Mamoru Chiba: they were - begging. and she didn't care. there were just outlines left

(PHONE)Usagi Tsukino texts to Mamoru Chiba: i think she's a senshi, mamochan. the missing outer senshi.

(PHONE)Mamoru Chiba texts to Usagi Tsukino: riventon tells it like she was traumatized by seeing it happen. but she doesnt remember shit when it sets her off, afaik

(PHONE)Mamoru Chiba texts to Usagi Tsukino: thats

(PHONE)Mamoru Chiba texts to Usagi Tsukino: a lot

(PHONE)Usagi Tsukino texts to Mamoru Chiba: after she did it, shee tried to take the pure heart crystal and her device started shrieking

(PHONE)Usagi Tsukino texts to Mamoru Chiba: something about suppressing dark energy. and she passed out. and some redheaded lady came and took her away and said she'd get revenge on me for killing those girls

(PHONE)Usagi Tsukino texts to Mamoru Chiba: it's a lot T-T

(PHONE)Mamoru Chiba texts to Usagi Tsukino: i'll talk to riventon about firefly

(PHONE)Mamoru Chiba texts to Usagi Tsukino: is her device still around? it should have recorded what happened

(PHONE)Mamoru Chiba texts to Usagi Tsukino: also if shes a missing outer senshi, shouldnt pluto know about her already? do they have anyone they have been looking at?

(PHONE)Usagi Tsukino texts to Mamoru Chiba: pluto and luna told me there was a fourth, but it's like with jupiter - we didn't know who she was until she transformed

(PHONE)Usagi Tsukino texts to Mamoru Chiba: well okay you dont know who jupiter is

(PHONE)Usagi Tsukino texts to Mamoru Chiba: but i do! and even she didn't know til she transformed. but she was always jupiter, the power, just like i was always moon.

(PHONE)Mamoru Chiba texts to Usagi Tsukino: maybe shes like me

(PHONE)Mamoru Chiba texts to Usagi Tsukino: except with mind control like my guys

(PHONE)Usagi Tsukino texts to Mamoru Chiba: that's what i think. maybe.

(PHONE)Mamoru Chiba texts to Usagi Tsukino: maybe? what are the other options?

(PHONE)Usagi Tsukino texts to Mamoru Chiba: inai-sensei said that devices don't give you power, they just channel it. so if she is like me and doesn't know it, her device would channel the magic for her

(PHONE)Usagi Tsukino texts to Mamoru Chiba: the other option is me and neptune are totally wrong and she's not a senshi at all and instead something ELSE super weird and fucked up is going on

(PHONE)Mamoru Chiba texts to Usagi Tsukino: why not both

(PHONE)Usagi Tsukino texts to Mamoru Chiba: i guess it could be both. she could be brainwashed and not a senshi. but

(PHONE)Usagi Tsukino texts to Mamoru Chiba: i don't think so. maybe?

(PHONE)Usagi Tsukino texts to Mamoru Chiba: i wish i remembered more.

(PHONE)Mamoru Chiba texts to Usagi Tsukino: theres no guarantee that remembering more would be worth its salt. i only wish i remembered more so i didnt have to fake-remember the fake stuff.

(PHONE)Usagi Tsukino texts to Mamoru Chiba: if i remembered i might remember who we're missing

(PHONE)Usagi Tsukino texts to Mamoru Chiba: because i know we're missing someone but i dont even know who.

(PHONE)Usagi Tsukino texts to Mamoru Chiba: i have to try and do something. neptune suspected this all the way back in september. if i had tried to help, if i had figured this whole thing out, maybe those girls wouldn't have died.

(PHONE)Mamoru Chiba texts to Usagi Tsukino: well. youre running out of major planets. you already have two dwarf planets and a moon. there are two big planets left that have no senshi right? so youre either missing sailor earth or sailor saturn. if shes an outer senshi...

(PHONE)Mamoru Chiba texts to Usagi Tsukino: also, that is borrowing trouble

(PHONE)Mamoru Chiba texts to Usagi Tsukino: blame? borrowing blame

(PHONE)Mamoru Chiba texts to Usagi Tsukino: you really have to stretch to blame yourself here. thats like me saying im sorry i wasnt checking up on you while himekos in the box, which you already tsked me for

(PHONE)Mamoru Chiba texts to Usagi Tsukino: anyway you can definitely do stuff to help without blaming yourself for not helping earlier.

(PHONE)Usagi Tsukino texts to Mamoru Chiba: i guess

(PHONE)Usagi Tsukino texts to Mamoru Chiba: i dont know

(PHONE)Mamoru Chiba texts to Usagi Tsukino: i can't tell you who firefly is. you can blame me if you want.

(PHONE)Mamoru Chiba texts to Usagi Tsukino: i thought i should say that outright instead of

(PHONE)Mamoru Chiba texts to Usagi Tsukino: idk. instead of letting it lie there unaddressed

(PHONE)Mamoru Chiba texts to Usagi Tsukino: but like. nephrite hasnt told anyone your identity. you know?

(PHONE)Usagi Tsukino texts to Mamoru Chiba: i honestly figured he had told the rest of them who i was

(PHONE)Mamoru Chiba texts to Usagi Tsukino: nope

(PHONE)Usagi Tsukino texts to Mamoru Chiba: i haven't told anyone who he is because i dont really. know. i mean i know his name sure

(PHONE)Usagi Tsukino texts to Mamoru Chiba: i'll try to find her myself. i get it. you really care about riventon and you know her.

(PHONE)Usagi Tsukino texts to Mamoru Chiba: but i have to know whats going on so i can stop her.

(PHONE)Usagi Tsukino texts to Mamoru Chiba: those girls were on the obsidian side but they didn't deserve to die.

(PHONE)Mamoru Chiba texts to Usagi Tsukino: i don't think it'll be hard for you to find her, not really. i mean, did you call stellar in?

(PHONE)Usagi Tsukino texts to Mamoru Chiba: someone else did. but she gives her card away like candy

(PHONE)Mamoru Chiba texts to Usagi Tsukino: someone else did, in a limited number of people

(PHONE)Mamoru Chiba texts to Usagi Tsukino: figure out who in who was there was the one who called stellar in. then, stellar can figure out who of her students has ties to obsidian. then just investigate from there.

(PHONE)Usagi Tsukino texts to Mamoru Chiba: alright. good idea. i'll ask her.

(PHONE)Usagi Tsukino texts to Mamoru Chiba: i've got to try and stop her

(PHONE)Usagi Tsukino texts to Mamoru Chiba: do you know what her device is for, besides magic?

(PHONE)Mamoru Chiba texts to Usagi Tsukino: monitoring some condition she has. riventon usually has to run and get her and take her somewhere if an alarm starts going off

(PHONE)Usagi Tsukino texts to Mamoru Chiba: the alarm is for dark energy

(PHONE)Usagi Tsukino texts to Mamoru Chiba: or at least, that's why it screamed yesterday. it was suppressing dark energy

(PHONE)Mamoru Chiba texts to Usagi Tsukino: she's as allergic to it as i am

(PHONE)Usagi Tsukino texts to Mamoru Chiba: and you're not supposed to be there.

(PHONE)Mamoru Chiba texts to Usagi Tsukino: weve already agreed shes not supposed to be there basically <3

(PHONE)Usagi Tsukino texts to Mamoru Chiba: mhm

(PHONE)Mamoru Chiba texts to Usagi Tsukino: she's nicer than i am

(PHONE)Usagi Tsukino texts to Mamoru Chiba: i know she's important to riventon and he's important to you even though he's a jerk and a dick

(PHONE)Usagi Tsukino texts to Mamoru Chiba: but i've got to get her out of there. i just hope i can do it before whatever's wrong with her kills someone else

(PHONE) Usagi Tsukino texts: <3

(PHONE)Mamoru Chiba texts to Usagi Tsukino: fwiw i will try to help. this is like in the beginning of midnight tokyo. im sorry. i know she killed people. but i also know i cant be the one to start the avalanche of compromised identities, because that's a whole different crisis waiting in the wings for its chance to get people killed.

(PHONE)Usagi Tsukino texts to Mamoru Chiba: i get it. you don't want people to start doing that, thinking its fair to reveal what they know because you did. i had to ask

(PHONE)Mamoru Chiba texts to Usagi Tsukino: I know! You definitely did have to ask, I get it, totally.

(PHONE)Usagi Tsukino texts to Mamoru Chiba: we'll figure it out. what else can we do, y'know?

(PHONE)Mamoru Chiba texts to Usagi Tsukino: im going to talk to inai-sensei about it too so i can get another pov on order of events and stuff. you want them knowing you didnt do it, right?

(PHONE)Usagi Tsukino texts to Mamoru Chiba: inai-sensei thinks it might not be a bad idea to let them think i did it

(PHONE)Usagi Tsukino texts to Mamoru Chiba: ToT since that means it was me who stopped the scary strong lady

(PHONE)Mamoru Chiba texts to Usagi Tsukino: otoh again i think it might make them think going for the lethals is fine

(PHONE)Mamoru Chiba texts to Usagi Tsukino: what do YOU want?

(PHONE)Usagi Tsukino texts to Mamoru Chiba: i didn't do it. i don't want people to think i would do that.

(PHONE)Mamoru Chiba texts to Usagi Tsukino: i didnt think so but i had to ask

(PHONE)Mamoru Chiba texts to Usagi Tsukino: chocolate after school <3

(PHONE)Usagi Tsukino texts to Mamoru Chiba: even if they don't believe me... even if they think i'm lying... i don't want people to think i would do that.

(PHONE)Usagi Tsukino texts to Mamoru Chiba: chocolate <3 and cuddles

(PHONE)Mamoru Chiba texts to Usagi Tsukino: yes very <3 <3
