[Someone sounds nonplussed today. Not that many people will recognize his voice at all.]

What impressive amounts of leisure time people seem to have here. Despite you being in the middle of a war, all I hear about is some gift-giving holiday.

[picklesplz]

Is it really something to complain about?

[PERMAVOICE]

[nailbitinghabit]

I'm surprised, that's all.

[picklesplz]

It's surprisingly quiet for a warzone, I'll give you that.

[nailbitinghabit]

Not what I expected. Especially not with the noisy, blue-haired boy who kept insisting we're completely safe inside this city.

[Yeah, Black*Star left a lasting impression. ..besides reminding him of Jio a little.]

[picklesplz]

Blue ha---

[Wait.]

Oh. Oh.

[This is an audible shudder.]

I'd been hoping to forget the guy.

[nailbitinghabit]

...

Sorry.

[picklesplz]

...not your fault.

[Pause.]

You know, it makes sense they're so loud about the war, since you can barely see it.

[nailbitinghabit]

Sort of. On the other hand, I suppose this is better than being kidnapped into a siege or something worse.

[picklesplz]

You have a point there.

[Pause.]

Ah, well, so long there's pickles, there's hope.

[nailbitinghabit]

[Pause.]

That's a way to look at it.

[picklesplz]

[Very carefully worded.]

We don't have to get involved in their war, though.

[nailbitinghabit]

No, we don't. I see no reason to so far.

[picklesplz]

[Good.]

Yeah, me neither. They're kinda pushy too.

[nailbitinghabit]

True. I suppose they must be desperate despite how calm things seem, but... it's really none of our business.

[Except Kujaku already knows it might become their business, but he'll disregard that for the time being.]

[picklesplz]

People can get desperate over the silliest things.

[Like sweets and pastries.]

But I say we just stay out of it.

[nailbitinghabit]

Mmhm, agreed. Unless it somehow starts concerning us.
