[ ...there we go, that's a good look. ]

I know, I know. I just thought I'd make mention of it since we haven't talked properly in so long. I mean, you've talked to me a couple of times through the months, but you didn't really know it was me. [ Sure.

He's showing his hand for Laurence, but he's sort of tired of this charade. Someone outside of Junko deserves to know. ]

[barredheart]

[Oh, okay, now she's shrinking back a little.

Making it look like she's putting the roses to the side, but she's staying over here.]

... Do you need Leo anymore? [Just out of curiosity. A small hope that maybe, you know, she wouldn't have to use at least him after all. The others can come after that.] Him and his eyes.

[penduli]

Dunno. [ At least that's... honest? He kinda ¯\_(ツ)_/¯s. ] I might. I might not. We'll see how things go.

[ he's got like no idea what he's doing anyway-- ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ ]

Keep your eye on him, but that's all I'm askin' from you. [ For now. ] You've got more important business on your plate not, don't you?

[barredheart]

[... That is not a satisfactory answer and he damn well knows it.]

So do you want me to dump a bunch of my experiments onto people before they're even ready? Because let me tell you, negatives aren't going to sell as well as the positives do, no one'll take them unless they're crazy.

[penduli]

[ Of course he does. ]

I want you to refine those. Make them worth something. In the meanwhile, [ he tilts his head gently, slowly ] I'd like you to do just the opposite.

Go crazy selling a bunch of positivity. Everyone'll be clamoring for those, I'm sure, especially at those cute memory pod parties that get held every so often. And I'm sure nothing bad will happen, right? [ he thinks

so many bad things will happen

with a huge boost in positive shit, actually. ]

[barredheart]

[...

What.

He wants positivity?

That's so weird?]

... I'm not against profit, [because that's what it is, even if it's for his benefit in the end,] but why?

[penduli]

It's easier to convince people to be happy forever than to wallow in despair, dear sister. Haven't you learned that already?

[barredheart]

[There's a shiver down her spine, one she can't repress, but her gaze doesn't leave him this time.

She doesn't know why he'd like to do this -- that definitely isn't his goal, it's not in line with anything else he'd ever given her -- but it's not like it's necessarily a bad idea... So she nods after a moment, feeling a tiny bit relieved through her otherwise icy guard.]

... Got it. It won't be hard, since everyone knows how good FeelGood's stuff is, and with the flower festival next month...

Well. You don't have to worry about it. Just enjoy the show.

[penduli]

[ That's his sisterrr. ]

Do something about the big crystal too, will you? It's been like that for nearly half a year now. [ Hrngh. ] It's a blot on an otherwise beautiful city.

[barredheart]

Now that is something I have no idea what to do with, but fine. I'll see what I can do.

[It is ruining the view, after all.]

[penduli]

[ He could kiss her!











He won't. He's just gonna grin and give her a wave. ]

That's my girl. I've got a few friends to visit, but I'll bring your brother back safe and sound, I promise. [ It's his body too right now, after all. ]
