[ hello datz. he's on a couch probably with blankets and a sleeping will, but he does raise a hand to wave lightly. ]
I think maybe it would have been easier if we had changed back before we got off the train, but it's not like any of it was really easy to begin with. [ ...and because he thinks this may be the case: ] Have you checked in with Reigen already?
Sounds like he's not too keen on tellin' her much of anything... which I can't really blame him for too much.
My advice was to tell her you saw her there and that it seemed like parts of her own world were mixed in with the place, but you don't have to get into the specifics or say how personal the stuff you saw might've been... especially since ya don't know for sure how real it was.
You think that'll work? [ said in the tone of someone who really might not follow that advice solely because he and nimona have a weird understanding, but willing to consider that his plan is bad. ] You'd think that'd just make her more curious.
[ running a hand back through his hair... ugh, this is such a weird and messy situation. ]
I wouldn't lie to her if she asks straight up, but just... maybe it isn't necessary to tell her she unwillingly showed some of her weaknesses to a group of people.
[ it's kind of like having three of your friends reading your diary behind your back, even if they didn't mean to. ]
Or if it is, maybe say it was just you that saw the worst of it.
...that would make sense. [ he's...well. he's experienced something similar, once, where people had to witness him at his worse and he had to expose all of his weaknesses unwillingly. it hadn't been what he wanted, but it was a necessary evil at the time.
he thinks nimona would react similarly. ]
I'll see what I can do. She may not want to hear anything at all. [ but he says this in a tone to indicate he does not think that's the case. ] This week's trip was so much worse than last week's. I don't understand why there was such a drastic shift.
I'll try to talk to them before any of us get too far. [ ...that said. he shrugs and decides it's probably not wise to say "generally because my life is meant for suffering." ]
I don't know. It's weird and I'm trying not to look into it too hard. I have thoughts but who knows if any of them are right.
It sort of feels as if it was because last week's trip didn't deter me from continuing to question things and start looking around. Maybe this time they were hoping to put me out of commission for a few days. Or, and this is more likely, whoever's responsible just thought it would be funny to see what would happen to take away our powers twice and put us in unusual situations twice. Especially with the whole "let’s see how heroic they can be in those conditions" angle they have going in this place.
Yeah. I had the same thought. It felt a little too personal this time, especially since it was Nimona's...whatever that was. And everyone we saw were part of our group...I mean besides Saya. We were all little animals like that.
[ but he makes a face. ]
First of all, if that worked it would've worked years ago. Second of all...it's not like I want you guys being stuck on these things either. [ but i, ty, do. i want everyone to experience cyoas. ]

Yeah, he gave me the rundown of what happened. Makes a lot more sense now why you were all starin' at Pink like that when ya got back.
no subject
Yeah...I know we have to tell her, but I have no idea how. I already know she's going to hate knowing how much we've managed to figure out.

Don't understand why they grabbed you two weeks in a row, either. The whole thing's just... really weird.

...Could be either one. I mean, the fact that everyone involved in this one was part of our group of troublemakers seems a little suspicious.
Guess I need to misbehave louder to get their attention off of you next week.
