You betcha'! I'm pretty handy with a deck, you know. Humans have been relying on the Arcana for a long time now, but that doesn't mean it's only a human thing. I've been talking to the trolls about it and they're all pretty interesting cards in and of themselves!
[ He grins. ]
And what about you, newbie? I don't think we've met before!
[ He laughs. Oh, what were they even talking about anymore?
Ryoji wasn't sure. Who cared, really? This guy was probably... ]
Only if you're actually paying attention. The trolls are just aliens though, so they'll keep thinking you're human, you know? They don't know any better.
[ He waves a hand absently. ]
So what are you exactly? It's not easy for me to tell from a video screen, you know, even if I am an observant guy. Maybe more than people usually give me credit for.

[ ... Ryoji gives a weak laugh. ]
Ahhh, who ratted me out... I thought I did pretty good.
[ To be frank, it was mostly false bravado. He's EXHAUSTED. His Eevee takes a spot in his lap, clearly glad he is back again--it is obvious she cares a great deal for her trainer.
Ryoji manages a small smile. ]
No, I don't need anything like that. Thanks anyway, N-kun. I just... went home for a little while, that's all.
Honestly... I accepted that from the beginning, N-kun. The only reason I had as much problem as I did was because I--was never meant to be human in the first place.
Because I fought it.
[ He looks down. ]
To tell you the truth, it took a very long time for me to be... you know. Me. Ryoji. ... Not... her. Minato wasn't happy about it. ... I feel bad... he had to bear the brunt of my confusion for days...

You don't look so good. Are you okay? What happened? Do you want some soup? Apparently it makes people feel better. I can make some.

Hey! I heard about you! You're that guy who stole Yomiel-san's face! That's totally rude. You should go find your own face!

I'd find my own face if I could. I don't know what I look like - I thought I was him for a while.

... You did? But how do I know you're not just some crafty, face-stealing liar trying to trick me?

Only if you think that. It's not like I'm trying to force anyone to do anything, here, anyway.

[Aki jumps up on his lap with a 'Vri?' and noses the camera.]
Do you need anything, Ryoji-senpai?
Reply
No, I don't. ... I'm glad you're okay.
[ He is silent for a moment, unsure if he should say this or not. But... well, he had to ask-- ]
Do you... do you hate me, Ken-san?
Reply
[He shakes his head.]
If... it really wasn't your fault, I can't blame you.
Reply
I... I can't help what I am. I can't help what I've done. But... I'm still sorry. What I represent must... be hard for you.
