[ we appreciate red strings in these trying times, especially the mods who did this. and i guess RNG that did this to us specifically. normally, Setsu keeps to themselves, though with those they care deeply about.. they don't necessarily mind the touch. which, thinking back to last week, had been a bit of weird behavior for them if they actually gave it some serious thought.
though, it's different here. and quite frankly, they also consider it to be the fact that it's because Jonas is their teammate. that this kind of affection is both ways comforting them here. keeping some of those negative thoughts away. ]
I'm not too sure, I couldn't really get a close enough look without risking potentially falling into the water. [ imagine they did. them showing up like a soaking wet cat. ] But they didn't look like artificial fish.
...It should, shouldn't it? I have to assume the coliseum has the means to keep them contained safely. [ honestly, Setsu spends almost every millisecond of their time thinking about information regarding the game, the erasure, the tasks, etc... it's good to have moments like these to reel them back. to have them talk about anything else. ]
[ very funny that they're both calm and free and head-empty about this while somewhere out there kazuki and alex are probably suffering somehow. they'll have to deal with this later when the week is over, but for now there's nothing to worry about or even think is particularly wrong. (maybe they will learn next time they are separated.)
nevertheless... ]
Wonder if we could, like, make a fishing line and try to catch some of them. [ and do WHAT with them. he does not know, it is really just a stray thought. ] At least you didn't actually fall in. Water didn't seem that great from where I was looking. You'd think the coliseum would have some precautions in place, but I think I want to take another look just to see for myself later.
[ sometimes you red string your own teammate and just smooth sail the whole week. the worry and thinking is a problem? for future them.
but now, Setsu looks a bit excited at the concept of fishing. they like fishing... it's fun.... ] One of the spears from the coliseum would make for a sturdy enough rod. Then, it would be a matter of finding some string or even some wire... maybe the gift shop?
[ a nod. ... though, curious. ] With a new set of tasks this week, do you think they'll use the coliseum potentially?
[ ...aaaand setsu is back to thinking about the game. smh. ]
Do you actually want to try? [ they have nothing else to do. ] I doubt anybody would stop us and if we teleport in and out of the coliseum we can grab whatever we want. [ he hums at the question though. ]
My guess is either the coliseum or the museum, honestly. They're both pretty big and could make us put work in.
...I really do. [ they can admit that much. they have been looking forward to it, and when they saw the fish... ] That's true... would you be willing to? It shouldn't take too long.
[ they say to someone that literally has 'breaking and entering' in their profile. ]
Oh, I hadn't given the museum much thought. That could work... though security does seem a bit strict there.
I've practiced teleporting a bit with Nahida last week, I was able to take her with me so... we could go in together. I can take us in, and you take us out?
[ cause no way they're gonna let him do this alone smh. they're in this together, thanks! ]
Oh, I.. think I saw security escorting someone out for touching one of the relics?
I haven't tried with another person yet, so...good to know it's that easy. And I want to see if it boosts if it's both of us together anyway. So let's try it.
[ that sounds about right to him. so he will start to lead them to the coliseum! ]
Oh...yeah that sounds about right. No matter where you go you can't touch anything in those places without somebody getting mad.
There weren't any side effects for the person that was taken with, from what Nahida told me. Which I wouldn't have been too worried to think about with two Drift users working together. [ it's just good to know in general though. ] But so long as I had some kind of contact with her... the teleport happened naturally.
[ they can squirrel feed another time, it is pole stealing time from the coliseum. ]
I wonder if it's also because some of those relics are a bit familiar to those here.
I didn't even think about side effects of other psych users. So at least we can rule that out. That helps a lot. We can take a person with us but I wonder how big of an object we can take, too. I mean we can test that later. It's not like what we're taking from the coliseum's going to be that big.
[ hold on. ]
Wait we can't both go in and both get out together if one of us has to take the rod. [ he'll go back to the relic thing in a second. ]
I'm not sending you in with a lion. [ the lion might not even be there? ] Plus I could use the practice in the first place since you already went with Nahida. I haven't tried with another person or item yet.
It's alright, I have my military experience, remember? I'd be able to handle myself if there's one around. [ No Fear! ] I.. I get needing the practice, but we can do that anytime. And...I wouldn't be able to forgive myself if you went in and got hurt because of me. [ :( ]
I get that I don't have the same experience, but I think I can hold my own pretty okay. And also...unlike someone I know, if I did get hurt I wouldn't refuse healing. [ the gentlest callout. ]
then promptly. closes. hrm. arms come to a cross, brows furrowing as they glance off to the side, then back to him. they, unfortunately, can't argue here. ]
...Call me if you need help. I'll come right away.
I'll be fine. It'll be in and out, and if it makes you feel better we can...I don't know. Stake out the area first to make sure it's clear before heading in.
[ he's not always used to actually scouting? sometimes he truly just goes off to do his own thing or he follows others into doing things, so be proud of him. it means they make their way to the coliseum, and they make their way up to a couple of seats to watch the arena below. ]
I've seen stuff like this in movies a couple of times, but never really up close or in person.
[ i zetsu am personally proud of him. though, Setsu technically is too, since they're glad for not only the suggestion but follow-up of it. as they make their way to the seating do they peer down. hmmm... looks quiet so far. ]
..Oh. The video things? [ im glad jonas icly brought this up. ] I've managed to watch a "movie" once before all of this... it's pretty interesting. Though, I wouldn't really say the movie we watched was... I ended up falling asleep through it.
Yeah. Oh. [ he seems to realize about half a second later where this is going. ] I guess you didn't have a lot of chances on your base to see stuff like that. But it sounds like the one you did see was pretty boring.
[ setsu help. ]
With the way things are, maybe we'll get a movie theater or something? The four of us could go. I promise they're not all that bad.
Not really, especially since it's something that came from Earth so even those on other planets aren't overly familiar with it as well. Unless you were a fanatic fan like Shigemichi...
[ this is canon btw. they genuinely learned about movies. this i can say i didn't pull out of my ass ]
Hehe, I wouldn't mind if it's something you guys want to do. The "apocalypse story with zombies" just mostly left me lost so.. [ they got sleepy trying to understand and knocked out. ]
[ i'm in tears, i'm glad. jonas is kind of like :o hearing about it though. ]
Why not? That's the kind of thing you do with your friends on earth anyway. You go to a movie, and if it's terrible you spend the whole movie talking and throwing popcorn at the screen. [ no. ]
You do? I would have to take your word for it.. I only have some of the details Shigemichi told me to rely on so. [ which also are probably not accurate. SO THEY REALLY WILL BELIEVE JONAS. ]
Shigemichi is... someone that would appear in some loops, back on the interstellar cruise. He's human, but has a rather "alien-like" appearance. He's got a friendly and sincere personality so he's generally easy to get along with.
[ he could ask, and they would explain if he really wanted to know. he already knows quite a lot about their life as is. ]
At a minimum in some loops, there are five of us. The maximum would be up to... fifteen people. So it could be anywhere between five to fifteen depending.
