RL with Ange;

[tenminutes]

[ It'd been a little longer than she'd wanted to wait for this, but she knew that she and Ange both were pretty close to Steve. He had a lot of friends, but Yuri wasn't close enough to most of them to really worry about inviting them over to just.. well, talk. Make sure they were okay. At the very least, she could do that with Ange. She would've gone over to Ange's world, but that would've run the risk of any of the other people from Rokkenjima on the community coming and bothering them.

Not that she'd even told Ange too far in advance that she was coming over. A quick private message via the comm that she was coming for her was all the notice Ange would get before Yuri would arrive and worldhop (now that she'd managed to fix it, anyway) her over to the afterlife. ]

Let's go for some place that isn't on top of an ant hill. Sounds like a plan to me.

[tenminutes]

What if we find a swamp with a bunch of frogs?

[ She didn't even know if one was out here. It's not like she just went around exploring ever inch of land they have. ]

[denies]

That shouldn't be too much of a problem. I'm a witch, after all, aren't I supposed to be surrounded by those things either way? [ despite the fact that she's joking about it, she really doesn't seem to mind that idea, at least. frogs aren't really annoying.. ]

[tenminutes]

Good thing I'm not a princess, you'd have me kissing them.

[ Oh look, there's a nice little opening in the trees with some little field!? That works. ]

[denies]

[ Then Ange will just dump the bag on the ground there once they reach it, clearly she's decided on the spot, either way.. ]

Even if this isn't a swamp, it should do, right? Maybe we'll discover a frog or two all the same, they must be attracted to witches.

[tenminutes]

If I wake up and we're covered in frogs, I'm not forgiving you.

[ As much as she didn't mind them, it wasn't like she wanted to sleep with them. Yuri put down what she was carrying too, though a little more gently. ]

[denies]

[ Hey, Ange doesn't particularly want to sleep with frogs all over either, she just more.. doesn't care about their presence.. ]

I guess I'll have to live with that then for taking the risk. [ .. give her a moment to.. stare though.. ] Hey, Yuri. You know how to set up a tent, right?

[ Because Ange doesn't at all.. ]

[tenminutes]

I just figured we'd sleep out in the open.

[ They didn't have tents in medieval times, Ange, you can deal with it!! ]

That way we can sit and watch the... [ Stars? They couldn't really be stars, this was the afterlife. It wasn't a real.. physical place in the universe, was it? ]

Huh. Maybe they're dead stars? The ones that supernova'd long ago or something.

[denies]

.. Sure, we can lie around and watch dead stars. [ Okay, that's just incredibly deadpan again, mainly because of the last part.. ]

I guess it isn't as dangerous to camp out in the open in a place like this the way it would be back home. I'm pretty sure I wouldn't wake up anymore if I tried to pull it off there.

[tenminutes]

Because of the secret ninjas from evil corporations that follow you everywhere? Or because of your bodyguard the not-boyfriend?

[denies]

Stop associating the word 'boyfriend' with that guy already.

[ tsun.. ]

And probably the former. Amakusa's getting paid to protect me, killing me would be pretty counterproductive to his paycheck. [ except not. ]

[tenminutes]

No. [ She keeps getting grumpy about it, it's funny. ]

Well in that scenario I was thinking he would try to molest you while you were asleep, except you were sleeping on a cliff so when you hit him and got up you accidentally went the wrong way.

[ Duh. Why can't you read minds Ange? ]

[denies]

[ Because unlike Usagi, Ange doesn't believe in telepathy, clearly.. ]

That actually sounds more likely than what I had in mind. [ she even sounds a little serious.. but yes, talking about Amakusa is the best way to troll her and make her a little less deadpan, really. ]

No doubt that guy would try to molest me in my sleep though if we'd be in an area with less people, ugh. Just thinking about it makes me shiver.

[tenminutes]

[ What if it's magic telepathy? ]

I still don't get why you don't fire him if you don't feel safe with a guy who's in charge of your safety.

[denies]

[ Ange and magic have an even more complicated relationship..!! ]

Like I told you, I don't go over that sort of thing at all. Okonogi-san is the only one who can fire him for real, and he won't let me go around without a babysitter even if I'm already 18.

[tenminutes]

You could tell Okonogi that he touched you at night.

[denies]

Okonogi-san has known that guy for a long time. I'm pretty sure he would be surprised if Amakusa didn't try to constantly molest me.

[tenminutes]

So either you're paranoid or it's a conspiracy.

[denies]

Sure, Okonogi-san and Amakusa are probably actually in cahoots to kill me. Sounds like a theory alright. [ deadpan, of course, even if it's.. well, the truth.. ]

[tenminutes]

I was more thinking that Okonogi's acting as Amakusa's wingman to get him laid, but close enough.

[denies]

No, I'm sure that'd work too. I can already imagining them high-fiving each other over it and Amakusa calling Okonogi-san 'bro'.

[tenminutes]

He's a pretty crappy wingman if it's true though!

[denies]

Considering we're talking about Okonogi-san, a guy here who's probably at least my dad's age if he were still alive and yet still wears a stupid ponytail to try and pretend to be hip, I wouldn't think he could ever be a good wingman.

[tenminutes]

It's important that he tries, though. For... brotherliness or something. [ Like brother from another mother sort of stuff. Like Yuri and Ange's sisterliness. ]

[denies]

[ For a moment Ange turns more quiet, looking around them, and then.. ]

.. So, is this what you always do when you go camping, Yuri? Figure out conspiraries even across worlds?
