Excuse me, I tried to do my research before asking but I couldn't find my answer. Has anybody become a quite literal animal here during one of the moons? I assume it will go away once the moon is gone but I am concerned over some details. Were you actually that animal? For example, if you became a dog, would you still have died if you ate chocolate? I am mostly worried about any medical ramifications from this.

If anybody knows then I would appreciate the information.

I am still open to doing commissions if anybody would like a new piece despite everything.

Also do you ever just think this might be a punishment from God?

[Soubi will say that last bit was a joke but he's really starting to consider if this is all just some big punishment for him. Like, right? This is all very horrible?]

You are really bad at texting but I understand it after reading it a few times.

Why didn't he tell me?

[There's a lot of things that Seimei doesn't tell him lately so that's nothing new.]

[unhappy]

I'm not really bad at it I'm just too lazy to type you a whole essay on this little screen >:(
Idk I was kind of hoping you knew

[depreciated]

It's not that little. I think it's big. [He comes from the time of flip phones. It can always be worse.]

Seimei is hard to understand. He's not like most people.

[unhappy]

Well that's your opinion. Either way my excuse is I got lazy, I'm not bad at it.

Yeah I noticed that. Maybe he wants to see if we're going to talk shit behind his back and see which of us tells him first.

[ After a few seconds, she adds: ]

(That's a joke. I'm not going to tell him about anything we talked about unless you want me to. You can tell him whatever you need to.)

[ It's fine to joke about stuff like that, but it's probably better to specify since Seimei's his master. She's not expecting him to keep their conversations private because of it, but she isn't going to go tattle on him either. ]

[depreciated]

I would never say anything bad about Seimei. There's nothing bad to say about him.

[That's a lie but Soubi knows his place.]

[unhappy]

Hence the joking.
Anyway, I'm not going to say anything I wouldn't say to his face is what I meant so if you have to tell him go for it.

[depreciated]

I thought the joke was that you wouldn't tell Seimei whatever I said about him.

[Jokes go over his head apparently.]

[unhappy]

The whole thing was a joke! I'm gonna have to send you a glossary every time I send one at this rate. I'm not great at saying stuff like this seriously, ok?

OK breakdown:
-You can talk to me about whatever and I won't tell him unless you want me to.
-talking shit about him was a joke. tattling on eachother=joke

[ Right he can't understand her shittalking so she fixes it before continuing. ]

-Though I do like talking shit so if you want to talk shit about other people that's fine, but I don't expect you to about him. I've literally threatened to cut someone's d off for talking about Cinder when I was in a mood.

Questions?

[ She feels like a teacher breaking down what she said on a whiteboard but Soubi is frustrating about jokes and she doesn't want it to be confused now.. ]

[depreciated]

You did a very good job at explaining.

[Yeah, she typed all of that and that's his response. Deflection is key.]

[unhappy]

Good.
Anyway, when are we making pasta?

[depreciated]

I forgot about that. [No offense.]

I have a few pieces to finish but I should have time after.

[unhappy]

[ She was excited about it. She doesn't take offense, but she's a little disappointed. Like hell if she's going to share that. ]

Don't worry about it if you weren't into doing it.
I'm sure you're busy with Kio-cat anyway.

[depreciated]

I just forget a lot of things. I need to be reminded. [He can't even remember to do his school assignments unless his friend literally makes him.]

But I want to.

[unhappy]

Oh.

[ She's back to being enthused then instead of deflating. ]

I don't mind then. Want me to stop by the store on the way?
PM me your address.

[depreciated]

[Soubi worries about Seimei but if she knew him, and Seimei told her to keep talking to him then he has some reason for it...right?

So he PMs her his address.]

If you wouldn't mind picking up the ingredients.

[unhappy]

Sure. I'll head out now, send me the ingredient list.

[depreciated]

[He sends the list over which isn't that many ingredients.]

It has to be semolina flour, understood? It will make the sauce stick to the noodles better.

[unhappy]

Semolina flour, got it.
Don't worry I already learned that "all purpose" means it's ok for everything but not great for anything. I'll get the right one.

[depreciated]

I'm glad for you. That's an important first step.

[But only a first step.]

[unhappy]

k

[ She only responds with that because she's going shopping now, there's not much else she needs to say until she's on her way, so she doesn't text again until then. ]

~5 mins away, you better not be doing anything weird when I get there.

[depreciated]

I don't think I'm doing anything weird. Is washing out cans weird?

[He is also closing Seimei's door and praying that if he hears Emerald he'll want to stay in his room anyway. Nobody is supposed to know that Seimei turned into a cat.]

[unhappy]

That's normal. Don't want ants.

[ At least that's what she assumes he's washing them for. Ants and stinky trash are gross. Either way, she's there pretty soon. Maybe a little later than 5 but not enough to really sweat it. She kicks the door to knock on it. ]

[depreciated]

[Oh. That's why you clean out cans? That seems logical.

Some people might be surprised to hear the kick at the door but when he does hear it, he knows it must be Emerald. It isn't like he's expecting anybody else anyway. He opens the door, polite smile on his face, and welcomes her in.]

Hello.

[Soubi has never cared about being punctual. He won't hold other people to it.]

[unhappy]

[ Her arms are full of groceries, which she promptly places in Soubi's arms as soon as he opens the door. ]

Special delivery.

[ Do something with the stuff. ]

[depreciated]

[At least he has no real sense of manners either and this isn't all that rude to him. He grabs them and motions with his head for her to follow him to the kitchen. His cat ears are obvious but his bushy tail is now obvious as his back is turned to her.

The apartment is devoid of much personality. Soubi usually stays in his own room and the rest of the apartment belongs to Seimei. Although even if Soubi was out here more then it still wouldn't have much personality to it anyway.

But at least it's clean?]

Unfortunately I don't have a machine but I didn't have one back home either. It takes longer but it isn't too bad.
