I see. I guess...I just never found a reason to talk to anyone online? Outside of updating my Instagram and stuff. That's pretty cool, though. Have you met any of them in person, including Futaba?
[ oh, akira.... at least he has friends now. at least both of them do. ]
we should add each other, then we can be online friends, too.
[ he has you, fam. ]
i've met Futaba before Retrospec... the rest of them aren't part of it, so they don't really notice any differences. it's really unsettling, but i shouldn't be surprised.
Wouldn't that not count since we met in person first?
[ is that how it works ]
Honestly, I think you two would click better than me and her will. I'm not really into games and stuff, so...maybe you'd be able to bring up the Phantom Thieves more easily around her?
Maybe we do. I guess I should talk to her more, huh? But isn't it weird if I just randomly message her out of nowhere? I did that once for bingo and I'm pretty sure I creeped the guy out.
Because I totally messaged him out of nowhere and he didn't know me... Well, I guess it might be different this time because I've spoken to Futaba before?
Also you don't seem like the kind of person who'd be bothered by that kind of thing, would you be?
but did you ask them out for curry on the first conversation? that's the real question. also, it sounds less creepy since you've talked to her before. you can even tell her it's because i vouched for you or something.
actually, i don't know if that would give her a good or bad impression. i want to hope it's good.
[ Because the random person that called him did. ]
are you trying to say that i let creepers creep on me?
Okay so... "Hey, Futaba! It's Ann, from Retrospec. We've talked briefly, and I'm Akira's friend. I just wanted to see how you're doing, after everything that's happened." How does that sound?
"Heeeey Futaba~ This is Ann from the network :3 I'm sooo excited to finally meet you~~ xD Btw Akira told me to check up on you. You're not getting rekt are you?"

wait a minute
first: ]
do you not have online friends, Ann...?
no subject
[ akira she never had many friends to begin with, ]
Why? Is that bad?
no subject
well, at least for me it is. i didn't have a lot of friends and i used to move around a lot, so i made some online.
[ He doesn't mind admitting that he has like. No friends. Little friends? A very small amount of friends. ]
we played an MMO together and that's how it started.

no subject
[ this is all a set up for this punch line ]
maybe, but she could use more friends? she had a rough childhood. also, you never know? maybe you guys have something else in common?
[ Like... He has no clue, to be honest, but it would be nice if his friends become friends, too. ]
no subject
[ ANN... ]
Maybe we do. I guess I should talk to her more, huh?

[ smooth ]
i'll be the judge of that. how can you creep a that guy out? you're a nice person.
and the opposite of creepy.
no subject

no subject
Okay, I'll talk to her when all of this is over, then. How does that sound?
[ she also had a random caller but wasn't really creeped out so... ]
No! Just that you wouldn't see it as creepy if someone randomly messaged you!
no subject
i would find it weird...? not many people approach me. sometimes it's a little suspicious.
no subject
Omg now do you see what I mean?! It's creepy right?
no subject
no? it's only creepy when you're actually being creepy? i'm just naturally a paranoid person.
[ AAAAAAAANNNNNNNN ]
no subject
How about this: I'll send you a text of what I'm gonna say to Futaba, and you can tell me if it sounds weird or not?
[ THESE TWO I SWEAR ]
no subject
i guess maybe we can exchange to keep each other in check.
[ fuck they're losers ]
no subject
[ can you feel her puppy eyes through the screen ]
no subject
[ HOW CAN HE SAY NO ]

[ AN ADDED HEART EMOJI ]
Okay so...
"Hey, Futaba!
It's Ann, from Retrospec. We've talked briefly, and I'm Akira's friend.
I just wanted to see how you're doing, after everything that's happened."
How does that sound?
no subject
i feel like there's a 50/50 change this will work.
[ AKIRA ]
Pretend I'm using the right font
What's wrong with it?
i will always pretend
well, as i said, it sounds like you're talking to a normal person.
