[The communicator turns on as Minato adjusts it. He's leaning back against some pillows on his bed. For the most part, he looks all right, save for the fact he's slightly paler than usual and bandages can be seen underneath the tank top he's wearing.
Once he's satisfied with how the communicator is situated--he's got it propped up against his thighs so that he's looking down at it--Minato smiles.
He clears his throat before he starts speaking.]
Ah, I apologize for not getting this out sooner, but I though the Discedo grapevine would take care of it for me. I'm currently a bit injured right now and am going to have to take some time off work at the martial arts school to recover. Nothing to worry about--I just need to take it easy!
My students should practice what I've taught up to this point. I shouldn't be out for too long, and so you'll regret it if you've lost some of your edge when I get back! [He's grinning widely--he means it!] I'll use the downtime to come up with some interesting lesson plans!
[And then, his voice softens a bit.]
Otherwise, how's everyone doing?
[This is first said in Japanese, then repeated in English.]
