[ aha...ha... ]

... If it's what I think it is, then... the doki-doki bingo game was pretty hard on her.

[markofkaine]

Whadya mean? She seemed like she was doing fine...

[then again, the two of them were just playing poker. poorly. very little actual doki-ing.]

[messianic]

[ Minato hesitates for a moment, and then shrugs a little. ]

Yeah. I don't think it's my place to say much more, honestly, but you can ask her about it when we get her back.

Ritsuka... is the sort of person to hold back on a lot of stuff so long as she can help the people around her, I think.

[markofkaine]

...

Tch. That sounds about right.

[messianic]

[ just offers a rueful look at that. ]

She takes a lot on her shoulders for the sake of the people around her.

[ a deep breath, and he squares his shoulders. ]

So... the odd one out in this room is Goetia-san stand-in, right?

[ mr. tentacles. ]

[markofkaine]

It's definitely the thing that doesn't belong here, with the rest of Ritsuka's things. And it's got a shit attitude to boot.

So what, we destroy it?

[messianic]

[ uMMMM. ]

... I don't know, to be honest. But I know that Ritsuka... wants to try to work things out with him one way or another, bad attitude or not. I want to respect that as much as I can, somehow.

[markofkaine]

[LOOK. THIS IS THE EXTENT OF MY PROBLEM SOLVING SKILLS]

...Okay, well. I'll let you do the talking. I think I pissed him off.

[messianic]

[ listen, Kaine, you're probably more valid and right than Minato is. But he just nods a little. ]

I'll do my best to try to talk to him. Wish me luck.

[markofkaine]

I would, but the luck that follows me around is usually bad.

[gonna watch him carefully though. he'll punch a figurine if it gets mouthy, just watch.]

[messianic]

[ in this palace: me, expiring constantly over how soft kaine is.

But it seems like we're having some success here in communicating with the figurine!! Wow, progress!!

too bad Minato's getting distracted checking on its well-being instead of figuring out where Ritsuka is. ]

[markofkaine]

[look...... kaine's no better, he's too busy marie condo-ing]

[messianic]

[ kaine is the most valid person in this entire room right now. ]
