Mun has been wearing the shipping goggles an awful lot lately

[fortunefail]

What the hell is the matter with you? I understand the Valentine's Day experiment is drawing closer, but that is no excuse for what you're plotting. Not to mention what you're putting me through outside Luceti.

Your behavior is absolutely disgraceful.

From the look of what you've got going on, on the other hand, I must be lucky in some way.

[fortunefail]

Yes, you can be thankful the next New Feather cycle takes place after Valentine's Day.

[the_tv_is_a_lie]

Your mun hasn't done anything too drastic yet, have they?

[fortunefail]

By the looks of things, she will. It's only a matter of time.

[the_tv_is_a_lie]

So much for the assumption that everything's been at least some semblance of normal while I was gone.

Then again, when was anything in Luceti ever normal? I forgot.

[fortunefail]

Normality is a rather subjective term in Luceti. One could always argue that it could be worse, but that's only an excuse to become complacent.

[the_tv_is_a_lie]

I guess that's one way of looking at it.

[...Ponder ponder. Would not-dad appreciate a topic change? orz] Say, how are things back there, besides the whole valentine's mess?

[fortunefail]

[Yes, the topic change is very much appreciated.]

Not much has changed since you left, I believe. You've missed a few more scuffles with the Third Party and a couple of ridiculous experiments.

[the_tv_is_a_lie]

Define 'ridiculous'.

[fortunefail]

Hm... Were you still in Luceti when the moon threatened to crash?

[He's unsure when Souji left, exactly.]

[the_tv_is_a_lie]

...No, I don't remember being around long enough for that.

[Really, though, the moon? He must have missed out on several orders of ridiculousness in the time after he got sent home.]

[fortunefail]

Well, there was that.... And there was the horoscope experiment. [That one was pretty damn ridiculous too.]

[the_tv_is_a_lie]

Did the Malnosso pull that out of their rear or something?

[He's linefacing at them. SO MUCH. :|]

[fortunefail]

I would not be surprised, at this point.

[the_tv_is_a_lie]

You'd think they'd at least be more creative with how they torment their captives.

[fortunefail]

I'd say they're being a bit too creative at times.

[Because a moon bearing an angry face crashing into the barrier, while people ran around with magical masks was entirely too farfetched for Yuan's taste.]

[the_tv_is_a_lie]

...When you put it like that, it sounds like they have even more up their sleeve.

[Now he really isn't gonna enjoy his return. orz]

[fortunefail]

[Yuan is very bad at making people feel comfortable. He knows.]

I'm sure they do. There isn't any helping it, at this point.

[the_tv_is_a_lie]

Wonderful. [...And it's not like the topic he wants to go to is any better, but something's nagging at the back of his head. He really needs to know if his friends are safe. Better than talking about the many possible torture sessions the Mallies have.]

If it's not any bother here...did anyone die during the drafts you mentioned?

[fortunefail]

I believe so. Though, it was no one I'm familiar with.

[And as such he's already forgotten their names. Sorry Souji. And if someone he knows did get killed, he didn't hear about it.]

[the_tv_is_a_lie]

[Well, crap. Time to get to the point, then.] What about Naoto? And Rise?

[...He's not sure if he'll recognize the latter, but he's sure he remembers Naoto.]

[fortunefail]

[That brings another light smile to Yuan's face.]

Naoto is doing fine, last I heard. She'll be happy to see you again, I'm sure.

[the_tv_is_a_lie]

That's good to hear.

[Sigh of relief, and a smile from this normally-weary bowlcut. If Naoto's alright, then it probably wouldn't be a stretch to assume Rise is, too. One more thing he could look forward to, at least.]

Thanks for keeping me up to date.

[fortunefail]

You're welcome. I suppose I'll see you there soon, then, if all goes as planned.

Weird how these two get even more interaction outside of Luceti itself. That needs fixing. |D

[the_tv_is_a_lie]

Yeah. Mun's more than settled on his decision, for a change.
