[hackberrydragon]

I hope I'm not bothering you but there's something important that just came up.
You're one of the guys I feel I need to talk to about this.

Audio

[lionhearrt]

[ Smoke lingers around him as he reads over the message left by Munakata's man. Enomoto, Bandou had called him. ]

Talk.

Audio

[hackberrydragon]

[ .....well this isn't more intimidating at all. Please don't mind the breath as he composes himself. There are so many ways he could phrase this, so many questions running through his head... but he's going to finally pick the most important one. ]

...Do you know who I am? Because... this may sound crazy but I had a dream. But it wasn't just any dream. I saw you briefly... and Tatara. And Yata. And these other guys who had uniforms similar to the one I arrived in.

Audio

[lionhearrt]

.............

[ Dreams. Is that how shinki got them back? Then, what had happened with Izumo?

The sound of smoke being blown comes through before he answers.]

It's not crazy.

Audio

[hackberrydragon]

[ He'd heard of it happening before, after all. He just never thought it would happen to her but there they were. ]

That's... that's good. I was kind of worried I was losing my mind. But it's probably for the best I don't ask too much, huh?

Audio

[lionhearrt]

[ Mikoto doesn't want to be responsible for the mess that comes with revealing too much. If he knew they could handle it, he'd tell them the truth straight out but they can't so he doesn't. It's not their fault the gods decided to toy with them. Mikoto wouldn't add to it. ]

If you say so.

[ He's not going to tell him either way. If he wanted to pursue it, he wouldn't stop him. ]

Audio

[hackberrydragon]

[ He wishes he could ask... but he knows it's for the best if he didn't. So he won't press it. Eno's always been a good shinki, after all. Never poking his nose into things he doesn't. But there's something nagging at him, one thing he needs to know apart from anything else. ]

Just tell me one thing: Were we enemies?

Audio

[toremainbehind]

[Something after this conversation, Izumo calls Mikoto.]

Why did you put Yata on bodyguard duty?

[lionhearrt]

[ He answers and the background is filled with loud sirens and screams. ]

What.

[toremainbehind]

.....What did you do?

[Why does he hear sirens and screams in the background, Mikoto?]

[lionhearrt]

[ Don't ask. ]

What do you want.

[ He doesn't sound like he's dismissing him but it's clear he's not in a chatty mood right now. ]

[toremainbehind]

[Whatever you did, don't get arrested.

Or, if you do, don't burn down the jail you're in before you come back to the Heavens.

Izumo holds back a sigh.]

You've put Yata in charge of protecting Eric. Why?

[lionhearrt]

[ He already knows that. It's not his first time. ]

Work.

[ To pay off his 'debt'. Yata wasn't the type to accept a hand out, so Mikoto didn't bother offering one. By giving him an assignment - work - he didn't have to feel in his debt and Mikoto made sure he had a roof over his head and a full stomach all without ever lifting a finger. ]

[toremainbehind]

And for Fushimi?

[note]

[sing_for_me]

Don't warm up the chicken too much or it'll get dry.

Eat the vegetables too ok?

-Alex

[note]

[lionhearrt]

....

[ Mikoto puts down the note where the goddess left it and proceeds to follow the directions, adding vegetables to his plate, and makes sure not to heat it up too much. When he's finished eating, he washes the plate, dries it, and puts it back in in the cupboard. He leaves the note where he found it as he heads out for his morning walk. If she takes a look at the note it'll have a quick note scrawled on.]

Needs more salt.

[note 2]

[sing_for_me]

[Puts this on the next dish]

Too much salt is bad for you

How are you doing?

[note 2]

[lionhearrt]

Tastes better.

[ The salt makes things tastes better. Also, no response to the second half. ]

Re: [note 2]

[sing_for_me]

[Sighs. Should have expected he wouldn't answer.]

[note 3]

[sing_for_me]

Do you want to h

[scratches that out]

Do you like your new mug?
I saw it while I was getting groceries.
Last one too.

[note 3]

[lionhearrt]

The old one was good enough.

[ Don't waste your money on this heathen. ]

[sing_for_me]

[Her shoulders droop a little.]

[note 4]

[sing_for_me]

I thought it suited you. You don’t like it then?

[Audio] Sometime within the Nov 11th

[sing_for_me]

[ There's a bit of hesitation before she speaks, her voice not really masking how tired and anxious she was. ]

Sorry to bother you Mikoto..you said...to call if I needed help with something so I...

Kaden--my shinki..he hasn't returned and I can't get in touch with him. If you could just keep a look out for a young man with fox ears and tail..I'd really appreciate it.

Thank you.

[lionhearrt]

[ Soon after she tries to send the message, an automatic recording comes on before ending the call.

"The number you have reached is not in service, or temporarily disconnected." ]
