Just in case I'll kick your ass, got it.

[ Looks back with something of a smile. ]

You haven't really seen it besides the Ulrika and Monika thing. [ This is just a heads up cause man can he be really stupid. ]

[perspire]

[ just smiling back ]

I can't wait to see more then.

[ nani. ]

I got thrown in jail once cause I told a cop to go fuck herself, and then I almost died cause she wanted to keep me to teach me a lesson and I only had a few hours left on my curse.

[perspire]

[ ...akira pls ]

Kijima...

[bloodread]

What? I really just wanted to tell her she was a fucking dumbass who was gonna kill her only witness but I wound up telling her about spirits being real instead.

[perspire]

And... how did that end up for you?

[bloodread]

I'm here, aren't I?

[perspire]

Ah, I mean, did telling her about spirits end up helping you?

[bloodread]

Yeah, she actually believed me somehow and let me go on the condition she came with me. And then she died three times cause she's a dumbass who thinks she knows best.

[ Yes, three times. ]

[perspire]

... Well, I'm glad it worked out.

[ he's actually kind of interested to experience some of this stuff ]

[bloodread]

You're not gonna ask how she kept killing herself?

[perspire]

I'm curious but also don't feel like asking about how someone died just yet.

[bloodread]

[ Fair, but- ]

She's still alive.

[perspire]

That's even better.

[bloodread]

[ He didn't ask but Akira is going to say it anyway. ]

It was a time traveling elevator. [ This is why nothing here is actually that weird. ]

[perspire]

--What's an elevator?

[bloodread]

You don't have those? It's uh, a moving platform that goes up and down so you can get to high places easily.

[perspire]

Oh, we had something like that to get horses over the walls.

They were just called lifts.

[bloodread]

Yeah, that's pretty much the same thing but elevators are more for people I guess.

[ ... ]

We're really from different places, huh.

[perspire]

We are, but it's not so bad.

I like hearing about the things you have that I don't.

[bloodread]

[ Bertolt why you gotta word it like that! Thankfully Akira doesn't notice. ]

Did you get to see what Kings was like on this side?

[perspire]

[ he's learned that about him ]

I did.

[bloodread]

Tokyo's kinda similar, it's a city, but Kings seemed more like New York or what I've heard of it anyway.

...I've never been outside Tokyo until all of this.

[perspire]

Tokyo looks like it'll be nice then.

--This must have been quite an experience for you then.

[bloodread]

[ Nods. ]

Yeah, but I kinda just wanna sleep for a week after all this. [ He's tempted to just sleep right here tbh? A yawn. ]
