INTERLUDEThat we need more information. We're still missing too much.
bats534 not a wrong take
i'm hoping that as more people find more stuff they'll be willing to share so people can start thinking of where else to look and put pieces together
it's not fast enough, but it's a start

INTERLUDEI don't know who knows about it and who doesn't, but it's definitely something that should be shared. I guess we'll see if that happens.
If that's all we've got, it'll have to be enough for now. Everyone's already on the lookout for information, anyway. As long as we're not doing nothing.

bats534 after this, i really doubt any of us are going to settle on doing nothing
mostly
...but okay
i just wanted to make sure you were in the loop and if you weren't bring you into it

INTERLUDEI don't think it's so much "settling" as not knowing what to do in the first place.
Thanks, though.

[ what kazuki doesn't say is that maybe it isn't rational like that at all. maybe it's just a name, or who happened to be in the room with them. maybe it's just bad luck. ]
It's insane that they won't let us look into things earlier. Nine hours is already so little time. They're just deliberately setting us all up for failure.

bats534 true. there's a difference
but yeah no problem
if i run into anything else i'll touch base about it
unless mizuki tells you first

Most people are willing to help the person in front of them. It's only easy to ignore if it has nothing to do with you at all, but we're all here together.
Once they're back in working order. It'll be fine, I just... Playing helps. Kind of like you with Roboji, maybe. I'm just being impatient.
INTERLUDEThat's not really a concern.
I'll try to do the same, though.

[ wrong place and wrong time. not a sentiment he's unfamiliar with, but he's ignoring that for what he thinks he knows right now. ]
There has to be a way to override their protocols and let us at least help with the initial investigation. If we're going to be doing a trial anyway, shouldn't we be going in a little more prepared?

...for a little while, while we were there, it was hard to work as a group. [ just to point out why this is a strange sentiment. ] It got better, but people have agendas no matter where you look. It's nice when they overlap with yours, or when there aren't times of crisis. That's all.
But I don't disagree that most people are willing to help.

I get it. I build a lot to keep myself busy, too. [ so yeah, maybe. ] It's easy when you don't want to think too much and you want something easy so that you're ready to take on other stuff. Or even when it's just stuff you really like doing.
bats534 if you're sure
thanks
...let's see what happens tomorrow and maybe do something on-planet

The night market was sounding fun until I saw the mask thing.

INTERLUDELast week. The ceremony we had to infiltrate was a sort of masquerade.
INTERLUDE
You'd think, but if even Adrastea-san can't get past it, then they must have some serious firewalls in place here.
bats534 i see.
yeah, i get how that'd be kind of a bad thing
...we can at least go check it out if you want?
if it feels too weird we can go do something else
i was gonna go myself anyway so it's up to you

INTERLUDEI kind of figured that I'd just decide when I get there.
[ never really know how the trauma's gonna hit until it does. ]
INTERLUDEBut there's no reason not to try. I don't like the idea of being stuck on the ship all week.

[ he nods like yeah. knew you'd understand. ]
Music... is all of that, for me. 's probably a little why I've been more on edge. What am I supposed to do like this? Stare at the walls?

Because of the transformations...?
[ he sparks a little again. ]
I know that. But I stand by what I said. The people here - none of us want anyone to be injured.

Do you think it's that they can't? Or that they don't really remember how to do it...?
bats534 fair enough
i'm not a fan of being stuck either
we'll see what happens tomorrow and play it all by ear
or whatever

No, I think that had more to do with our personalities. [ lmao. ] ...I'm starting to wonder if we should be figuring out who else knows first aid. Just as a back-up for if the pods are full and we can't get any more yet.
