(PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts: So before I say anything else, would you be willing to trade secret IDs with Sailor Moon

(PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts: she's willing

(PHONE) Takashi Agera texts: How bad an idea do you think that would be. Honestly.

(PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts: well it would make my life easier. it would also make wedding planning easier. it would make a LOT of things easier. her primary concern was if riventon would come after her family. i said that wasn't your style. there are a lot of pros and i can't currently think of any cons.

(PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts: i know for sure she wouldn't come after your woobies to get to you, and she doesn't WANT to start shit with you

(PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts: because you're my brother. she thinks i have two brothers.

(PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts: ok i thought of a con

(PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts: she's gonna be REALLY MAD at me when she finds out i only have one

(PHONE) Takashi Agera texts: Okay, I see how that can be awkward... but I'm going to have to think about it. I still kinda live at the school and that garbage that's up there means it's hard for me to even duskport out if somebody comes; I'm less safe there than the rest of the city. It sucks.

(PHONE) Takashi Agera texts: I know you trust the girl but I recently had some issues with my own blonde, and... I'm not feeling super trusty right now.

(PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts: Take your time! And 'no' is okay. Disappointing, but will obviously be honored.

(PHONE) Takashi Agera texts: I will really try to be okay with doing it. I imagine it'd be weird if only one of your 'two' brothers showed up for the wedding.

(PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts: hilariously i moved out of the unsafe school just in time for it to become safer for me

(PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts: yeah ^^;

(PHONE) Takashi Agera texts: I appreciate you've been going through all of this difficulty to keep the secret. it means a lot to me

(PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts: i love you, it's not a problem

(PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts: okay so with that out of the way!!! sailor moon is about half really exasperated with riventon and half really concerned because of the whole 'i'll make an example out of you with my bare hands' thing, it really also didn't seem your style

(PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts: just informational though. she told me she partially melted you and you partially melted her or something

(PHONE) Takashi Agera texts: well that's a good reason to keep things separate for a bit

(PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts: for the record, she was really leaning on the 'concerned' and the exasperated wasn't really mad, just kind of like. 'does he need a hug or an intervention? oh my god'

(PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts: ok so the next thing i wanna say!! is im sorry for flinging a smoking bomber at you like a month ago or something. but also you shot first so not THAT sorry XD

(PHONE) Takashi Agera texts: well what I need is to not have magic things move through the city with twenty six crayon sparkles escorting it every damn time. don't think I missed how after you got a bunch of unknown magic stuff to the school, now it's hard to operate there. I can make connections.

(PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts: ALSO we set a date for the everyone wedding, five years from now! and she wants two weddings, and i suggested having the first one next year in case i start forgetting. we might. the date in question, she'd be 17 and i'd be 18 so it's not horrifyingly early, just uncomfortably early

(PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts: yeah, not sorry about that though, not after thetis kidnapped me from my room and she and beryl tortured me for like four days

(PHONE) Takashi Agera texts: yeah but she's super-extra-dead now. why am I catching strays for a dead woman

(PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts: at least nobody sparkleside would do that to you

(PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts: pff why do i catch strays in eclipse zones

(PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts: at ANY RATE, the FADE might start getting me, so i'll keep you updated as to whether there will be a magic-adjacent wedding next year

(PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts: oh oh oh also obviously eudial is dead, she shot my heart crystal out then used it to slap sailor moon

(PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts: also i do want you to come over and visit and get the tour and everything without karaoke planning going on or strange children falling from the ceiling

(PHONE) Takashi Agera texts: Yeah I heard about Eudial. -Links an 'oh no, anyways' meme-

(PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts: lmao

(PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts: it was one of the lethal guns

(PHONE) Takashi Agera texts: I told them to use the lighter rifles. people don't listen to me then they die. object lesson

(PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts: seems legit

(PHONE) Takashi Agera texts: You sure my presence didn't cause the ceiling child?

(PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts: lmfao it would sure be a riot if it did but i sincerely doubt it

(PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts: she ran away after talking to pluto and saying she was 'in the wrong one', and we know she's from another dimension, so it sounds more like a five year old had a plan that went astray

(PHONE) Takashi Agera texts: I'm just saying if another kid falls out of the ceiling while I'm there, we're gonna be meeting at Crown from now on

(PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts: XD XD thats fair

(PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts: oh, also, i've made sure my boys keep your secret too

(PHONE) Takashi Agera texts: you and your dudes were always better than the rest of the company.

(PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts: even when zoi was doing his best to backstab? XD

(PHONE) Takashi Agera texts: zoi had style

(PHONE) Takashi Agera texts: I give him style points

(PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts: that is absolutely true. he still has style, though he's doing his best not to backstab anymore

(PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts: anyway you will get two save the date cards hahaha. possibly even four if we do the two weddings thing.

(PHONE) Takashi Agera texts: about blasting you, I knew it was gonna happen eventually. didn't like doing it, but Midchildan magic's nonlethal unless it's specifically set not to be.

(PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts: you did. and you warned me when i left, back when i still thought i could stay out of fights, lol.

(PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts: i'm not mad at you. and that was a mid attack i threw back, too.

(PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts: also, still, please please please tag me if you get hurt bad. even if sailor moon did it.

(PHONE) Takashi Agera texts: hoping that'll be less of an issue for me soon

(PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts: i can still find you if i look, and i can still teleport to where you are.

(PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts: i mean unless it's the dusk zone or the tower

(PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts: i'm glad that it'll be less of an issue for you, but i'm also pretty sure that means you'll be using more dark energy, and your temper gets *really* bad when you're using a lot of it. so if you end up threatening something like making an example out of sailor moon with your bare hands again, *I* will be the one who can say 'i told you so'

(PHONE) Takashi Agera texts: she could always get out of my way, that's an option too.

(PHONE) Takashi Agera texts: I'd be less angry if the situations would stop requiring me to be angry to access the energy. and stop pissing me off

(PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts: you know that's not an option any more than you stopping getting in her way is lmao.

(PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts: i *will* say i told you so, though

(PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts: like she said you sounded absolutely crazy, which is why she got worried for you

(PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts: also... sorry about the trouble you had with your blonde.:/ are you okay? i mean you seem to be okay but if you want to get fake drunk on ginger beer and watch stupid movies, i'd be down. or i can get neph to score us some real alcohol, he's good at looking old enough

(PHONE) Takashi Agera texts: he's not old enough? I thought he was born old enough. I kid of course

(PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts: nah he's 17, he's only like six months older than me.

(PHONE) Takashi Agera texts: I may have lost my cool a bit at Sailor Moon. it's been a rough month. I thought Mami like. got it. but when push came to shove she didn't really understand.

(PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts: oh she would definitely understand that. it okay if i tell her? she'll be less worried because mitigating circumstances

(PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts: and i'm REALLY sorry about Mami:(

(PHONE) Takashi Agera texts: yeah probably could use the mitigation.

(PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts: okay, i'll tell her then

(PHONE) Takashi Agera texts: Mami was probably an unnecessary distraction anyways. I always have too much work to do.

(PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts: you work so hard, you always have

(PHONE) Takashi Agera texts: It's not getting any easier.

(PHONE) Takashi Agera texts: It's a shame you ended up allergic (or something like it). Beryl's gone now. still a bunch of crazies but she was the only one that made you her personal project

(PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts: yeah. it doesn't hurt me the same way it hurts sailor moon, but i think that's because i'm not a purifier. but it hurts and you KNOW what too much of it does to me. what i really wish is that obsidian didn't suck. or that you had your own operation outside of it.

(PHONE) Takashi Agera texts: you're well off but you're not that well off. That and I'm already being watched because people keep ducking out around me.

(PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts: yeah i am *definitely* not wealthy enough to bankroll you, lol

(PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts: and that's not fair! you didn't pick hidden sparkles or hinoiri on purpose

(PHONE) Takashi Agera texts: you've been in the company, fair is not really a concern. it looks like I'm bad luck. At least I'm not still in Tomoe's group as you guys are offing them

(PHONE) Takashi Agera texts: everyone's ancy after whatever's happened at the school. tempers are high. Joker's been screwing around with my employees. Precia's tense.

(PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts: gods. yeah. oh my god which reminds me, Koji got his heart crystal taken out but instead of with a gun it was by this daimon that like. sucked it out of his face. WTF id rather have the guns back

(PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts: oooooh. well i mean... no, yeah, i can see that. and im sorry that a) precia is tense, and b) you have to see her often enough to know shes tense

(PHONE) Takashi Agera texts: she's an improvement over Beryl.

(PHONE) Takashi Agera texts: not sure who that says more about really.

(PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts: yeah i'll say.

(PHONE) Takashi Agera texts: Yeah, the Witches whatever number it is today are experimenting. I'm not still in the department but I still know some stuff I'm not supposed to know.

(PHONE) Takashi Agera texts: I'm worried about Hotaru. they're looking for her, too.

(PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts: yeah we're doing what we can, but im worried too. those towers are sending out pings looking for her, and we haven't got a way to counter them yet.

(PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts: my cat is telling me it's bedtime. talking cats are great until they can tell you with words that it's time to go be horizontal

(PHONE) Takashi Agera texts: well. tell your cat I'm more important. j/k at least one of us should get enough sleep

(PHONE) Mamoru Chiba texts: you are more important than my cat, but i absolutely do need to sleep, she's right. you should sleep too but i know you won't:< take care of your body!!

(PHONE) Takashi Agera texts: Working on that. Sleep well, Mamoru-kun.
