[ it wasn't as complicated as he expected it to be - it was pretty straightforward, kind of just like getting a new phone. the one he'd brought with him wouldn't work anymore with no signal going in or out, so this will have to do. the letter and now this weird kind of text message that he got ... it sounds like some kind of scam, doesn't it? soon

My condolences, but return seems to be out of the question.

[crashdives]

I got that much already.

[savatic]

I see. Well, it bears repeating. Have you seen your new collar?

[crashdives]

Collar?

[savatic]

The noose not-so-literally wrapped around your neck. Your tattoo.

[crashdives]

Ah...?

[ soon enough, he's holding his hand up to the screen. yep. ]

You mean this thing?

video

[savatic]

Yes, that thing.

[ hm, that's aquarius, right? ]

It's like a sign of our forced loyalty to the Twelve.

[crashdives]

Huh ...

[ shizuo lowers his hand again, turning it over and looking at the mark branded to his fingers. ]

Y'know, I thought it was just all pretty crazy, but maybe there's something behind all this.

I would hope there is at least a purpose to be accomplished. Otherwise, irritating as the distraction is, this could be deemed a complete waste of time.

The question is rather- what is behind all of this. God or human? Not everyone seems to like the first possibility.

It doesn't seem like something that someone normal could do.

[ at least, not without it costing some huge amount of money. maybe this was a reality tv show ... one of those new things that was all the hype. who knows, really. but why would they pick someone like him for it? ]

[savatic]

[ every conversation thus far, circling around things like questions and the inability to answer them. it's all really irritating, time consuming for no particular purpose. ]

Someone...or something abnormal, then. Perhaps we'll find out more when the sun comes up again.

[ stop complaining gio :\ ]

It's been dark for a while now - kind of inconvenient, isn't it?

video

[savatic]

[ then don't encourage it :\ ]

Yes... the place is foreign enough already, right? It shouldn't be too much longer, though.

[crashdives]

[ he didn't choose to talk to you! ]

Aah?

How do you know that?

video

[savatic]

That's what I heard, of course, from the letter they sent. Did you not read it or are you simply lacking in reading comprehension skills?

[ well. he shrugs. ]

They could be lying, I suppose.

video

[crashdives]

[ oh well thanks :\ ]

[ that's kind of annoying, but shizuo just takes a breath, and continues on. well, guess it was his fault for not reading carefully, okay? okay. ]

Don't see the reason for them to lie about it.
