You haven't?!

[Whaaaat.] I always get started right away, so I don't forget anything. If you forget what she said, you might get something wrong!

[abysmalactor]

Well, I won't forget it, 'cause I kept a list typed up on here, see? [He taps his laptop cheerily, seemingly proud of himself.] I just didn't get a chance to start on it, 'cause of the computer things and all...

[soft_focus]

Oh!

[...........] ...It's been two weeks though...

[abysmalactor]

...

Let's just say I haven't been too keen on actually using this thing recently.

[yeah.]

Was kinda typing out responses to you with a stick before you asked me to come over, so...

[soft_focus]

[....Frowning.] ....So you're mad about the dreams too...?

[That's really unfortunate, because he thought it was a Great Opportunity.]

[abysmalactor]

More like really weirded out, actually. Weren't you? Most people don't like having others go into their heads without permission n stuff, you know?

[soft_focus]

....Nope.

[He'll explain.] ...The 4th said 'for just in case'...and the places I went, it felt like people needed help. I saw places for Sora...for Tsukikage...

I didn't do anything to hurt them there. I just helped them. Sora's chimera was alone trying to hold up a roof, so I got others to help and make it easier. Tsukikage though... ...Tsukikage was hurting himself. ...he was hurting himself really bad...

...so I talked to him. ...Until he realized it was okay to stop hurting himself.

[abysmalactor]

So, you managed to help them out...

[He can see why Reira thought it was a good thing, then. And he sure isn't about to go mentioning the things he saw and did there, either.]

Still, you can understand why people wouldn't be happy about having other people going around in their head, right?

[soft_focus]

You don't think he would have kept people safe from the wrong kinds of people?

[abysmalactor]

Well, considering how many people there could have been going around...and you said it yourself, that he might not know everything about people right around...

[Tapping at his knee, frowning.]

I think it's less that he wouldn't and more that he might not be able to?

[soft_focus]

Mmnnnnn... [Oh. Well that's...] ...That could be another reason he needed help though! Maybe he was going to call people he knew to help if he had trouble!

[abysmalactor]

You think so...?

[He frowns.]

Even so, this whole thing was kinda messy...

[soft_focus]

...Yeah...

...Everyone's really mad about it...

[abysmalactor]

Yeah, guess so...

[And he abruptly claps his hands together. By this point, the resulting sting is barely noticed.]

Anyways, let's talk about happier things! I came here to keep you from being bored, talking about something messy like that isn't gonna help!

[soft_focus]

Ah-yeah! [Well, if there's anything he can agree with, it's that!]

...What do you want to talk about though?

[abysmalactor]

Uh, well, er...what were we talking about before this? Quests?

[soft_focus]

Yeah you had one that you're not doing because you're afraid to use the computers.

[abysmalactor]

Ghk-!

[WE ARE NOT GETTING INTO THE COMPUTER DEBATE AGAIN, KIDDO. He'll let that slide this time!]

Er, yeah...anyways, I gotta collect some things, and then burn them by the light of the full moon, or something like that...

[soft_focus]

...What kind of things?

[abysmalactor]

Er...

[Give him a second, he needs to remember this.]

A well-oiled crank, a hand of cards from a winning game, wood from the base of a certain kinda tree, and hair from a horse or a kelpie...

[That's not all the details, but it'll do.]

[soft_focus]

[Oh what-

They point to themselves.] ....Like me?

[abysmalactor]

A-uh-?!

[Blink. Wait a second.]

Actually, yeah! I-wait, I think there had to be something special about it...

[soft_focus]

....What kind of special?

[abysmalactor]

Uh...they had to win a race, recently.

[Tap tap tap, goes his claws on the laptop.]

Something else...uh...I think a race for their life counts? Wonder why she made that distinction...

[soft_focus]

...........How recent?
