It's probably a Mana thing.

Maybe! But I have to go down again to see...and it's way too dark for that.

It's dangerous too, there were giant saw fish that cut off my wings.

[abysmalactor]

s

sawfish?! i've heard of swordfish, but sawfish?!

i'm surprised you got outta that kinda mess alive!

[soft_focus]

So was Kurosaki!

Except I think he was mad too, he was really scared when I got out.

So was I. It was really scary. Those fish are really big, bigger than your wings!

[abysmalactor]

wait, BIGGER THAN MY WINGS? they coulda swallowed you whole, then!

[HIS WINGS ARE HUUUUUGE, REIRA. you sure they're bigger than those? u sure?]

[soft_focus]

YEAH!

But they couldn't swim properly, they had to climb the big salt pillars and then fall. That's why I only lost my wings.

It still hurt though, and the lake was really salty!

[abysmalactor]

that doesn't make much sense, but at least you were able to get away! that's a relief, reira! although, it musta hurt a lot, right? getting your wings cut off in a salty lake and all.

[soft_focus]

Why doesn't it make sense?

It really hurt! Sora helped make some of the pain go away, but even then it was really sore.

More than getting shocked by the duel disks, I think.

[abysmalactor]

i mean the way the fish move doesn't make sense! not being able to swim properly even though they're underwater like that

i guess that's what let you get away or something

huh! i can imagine! i mean getting shocked by the duel disks only happens for a little bit, not like your wings getting cut off!

[soft_focus]

Oh, they climb up the salt pillars, that's why it makes sense.

It also just doesn't hurt as bad when you're shocked.

[Excuse-]

[abysmalactor]

Fish shouldn't climb, they should swim! What kinda fish even climbs?

And well of course it doesn't, right? Getting wings permanently cut off is definitely different than just being shocked for a while!

[soft_focus]

This one.

And the wings stopped hurting after they were out of the salt. The big pain was when they were cut off, but it was the salt that made it bad.

Are you close yet?

[abysmalactor]

well that's why they have that saying, "rubbing salt in the wound"! hurts like crazy!

and yeah, i'm almost there! [Pretend there was a delay before this message came in. He got hella sidetracked.] someone stopped me, throwing all sorts of weird accusations. like i'd send a valentine like that!

[bleah.]

[soft_focus]

[Blink, blink. What.]

What did they think you sent?

[abysmalactor]

this really cruddy valentine. if i sent one out i'd make it way better quality than the one they showed me! that thing had no class!

[soft_focus]

Oh.

Did you send any?

[That's ridiculous Reira, it ain't White Day-]

[abysmalactor]

no, white day's when boys are supposed to send stuff out to the girls who gave 'em any valentines today. or at least that's how it works back home! i dunno if it's different here.

[HMM.]

[soft_focus]

Oh.

I wonder why the robot didn't know.

If it's going to send letters from people, it should get that part right.

[abysmalactor]

oh, you got something from that robot, too? maybe valentine's customs are different here, who knows?

[soft_focus]

Yeah!

One says it's from you, but I guess you didn't really send it.

[abysmalactor]

...nah, it wasn't me. i hope it was better quality than what that girl got though. please tell me it at least looks decent.

[soft_focus]

It's silver!

[abysmalactor]

silver, huh? better than neon green and black, at least.

[hey, guess who just wandered right under your tree while texting that! tell him to look up.]

[soft_focus]

Green and black?

[And oh, hello-] ...NIISAN!! Up here!

[abysmalactor]

[Before he can text back, Sawatari hears the call and looks up-]

Oh-! Geez, you're up high, aintcha?

[And Sawatari starts clambering up part of the way, at least. Maybe he can find a good branch to perch on nearby.]

[soft_focus]

Mana said I have to sit up in the tallest tree for this! Every day, [He adds, shouting until the other is close enough.] Thanks for coming niisan~
