[A rare video feed from Kaneis comes on, partly because one of his roommates had to turn on the tablet. It becomes quickly apparently why- it seems his hands and locks of his hair are tangled up with strips of brightly colored leopard print duct tape. Someone attempted to do home repairs when they knew absolutely nothing about home repair. The background shows one giant hole in the wall about six inches in diameter, just to give you an idea. Allen is next to him, trying to get some of the duct tape off]

Okay okay- I'll ask! Just get me outta this stuff!

[He gives a huff and looks at the camera. He looks rather disgruntled]

Say, does anyone out there know where a person can get a couch? Ours kinda...got wrecked the other day and we can't fix it.

Oh and, stuff to seal up holes in the wall? That'd be good too.

Thanks in- [And then he YELLS "OW" as Allen his roommate pulls a piece out of his hair not so gently]

ALLEN! THAT WAS MY HAIR!

[Transmission end!]

[aequivoci]

More like a strongly-worded request.

Speaking of missions, exactly what do they entail?

[anklets]

Meddling with the past.

[ "meddling" ]

[aequivoci]

[ he scoffs lightly. ]

How exciting. So hardly anything is done in the present?

[anklets]

[ hardly anything, until they've no choice but to fight (and lose) in the now ]

Have you had the chance to look into the events of the past few months, General?

[aequivoci]

[ how exhilarating ]

Only a quick skim. [ because it is boring to do a detailed read without a sip of wine to help him read through the bullshit. ]

[anklets]

They destroyed a Transport's world. [ brings Tim from her shoulder so that she can worry his cheeks ] Shipped a virus to the island. Dropped bombs on the Hold.

it's okay I'm late too!

[wilder]

Oh...okay. That...strange, but it makes me feel a lot less scared about eating fruit so that's something!

[other things they appreciate about him? Ha] Ahahaha, you really are a sweet person, Flora.

[wilder]

Oh?

What do you have a collection of it or something?

[wilder]

Not that different! These ones even sing about stuff!

[wilder]

-- A lab?

[pride_of_amarcia]

Well, yeah! Without a lab how am I supposed to be a proper engineer?

let's be turtles together 8Db

[showmeyourwreath]

Is it really that strange? [She tilts her head.] It seems pretty fortunate and clever to me. [But you're also a nerd, Flora.]

They're like requests, or better yet someone giving you something in advance for favours. Like an apple paying you to spread as many seeds as you can for it.

[If she has half an idea of how suggestive that sounds, it doesn't play on her face.

Fruits are basically really nice, generous pimps.

Oh sudden undeserved compliments. She smiles shyly.]

That's really sweet of you to say, Kaneis.

[reassures]

Do they?

I don't think I have seen any of them up close before.

[vimdicare]

Of course. Duct tape is incredibly useful. For example, you can put a discreet seal of duct tape on a door to keep track of someone's activities. If they leave the room, you'll know. Of course, you need to make sure the duct tape is personalized so that even if the person notices your trap, they can't fix it.

FIRE WORKS;

[blossomgale]

I don't really know... but Flora told me. Did you know? She can hear plants!

[sweetling]

Thanks, but what happened happened.

Anyway, good luck with the duct tape.

[sweetling]

You think he'll learn?

[Video] Sorry for the late

[wilder]

[There's a pause at that. Is this guy for real? He finds himself thinking that, much like he did when he heard Lloyd talk in Mizuho. ]

Heh...you're a soft guy. [it's hard to tell if he means that as a compliment or not, maybe he doesn't know himself]

But I guess it doesn't matter so much anyway. The last Human Ranch was destroyed a couple weeks before I got here. That faction's no more.

I do like turtles

[wilder]

Well...just the way it sounds to me is I guess. But it makes sense at the same time too.

[It's okay he'll let it pass]

Ahaha, just pointing out the truth.

[wilder]

[And the channel is shut before Zelos can reply]

[What a weird guy...]

[wilder]

Really?

But if he doesn't like that, why doesn't he just lock the door?

[wilder]

Engineer? Those guys...build stuff, right?

[pride_of_amarcia]

That's an understatement. Inventors and developers, we stick together the shinies that make the world go 'round faster than ever before!

And no one's better at it than Amarcians!

[substitutable]

I don't know. Maybe he doesn't actually mind?

[debtor]

I hope so! [A sigh.] I wouldn't want to go through this again. We'll keep the duct tape away from him in the future.
