TELEPATHY text / voice / image / action Akira doesn't have a bird with which to exchange written messages! But you can send him one anyway and he'll just. . . use your bird to reply. . . probably. code credit

[. . . oh]

[there's a pause between when he gets the message and when he replies, if only because this? is still something he is getting used to. people who aren't a part of his team showing him concern]

I'm-- holding up. [that's about the best he can do] Everyone's alive and in one piece, so. . .

[he wants answers. he wants a cure. but he knows he has to be patient]

[deathboss]

[Well it's not like Eikichi has a team to show concern for, so congratulations, you're part of his adaptive family.

Also great choice of words...alive and in one piece.]

Y-yeah. That's good. I'm sure they'll figure out something.

[purrtagonist]

[HE IS OKAY WITH THIS TBH]

I don't really like leaving it up to "them."

[whoever "they" were]

[deathboss]

Yeah I know...but I know I'm not bright enough to figure something out. Maybe if I was more...sci-ency.

[That is not a word.]

[purrtagonist]

[EIKICHI. . .]

I don't know. This doesn't really strike me as something. . . sci-ency.

It's more fantasy-y than anything.

[deathboss]

Oh I guess so but...I don't think I can remember any manga with a similar situation...

There was an episode in Featherman R but that was mind control.

[purrtagonist]

[EIKICHI]

Futaba would know more about that than I would, and right no she's-- [gestures]

[deathboss]

Yeah...

Well, we just have to believe smarter people than us can tell us what to do in this situation, right?

[purrtagonist]

[. . . :/]

I wouldn't put it like that.

[deathboss]

Hey I know I'm not the smartest in these situations! That's why Jun was in our team!

[Eikichi is very self defeating sometimes.]

[purrtagonist]

[huffs]

Just because you might not be the strategist or the brains of an operation doesn't mean sitting around and waiting is the right choice.

[deathboss]

Tch. Okay, that's fair...if anything, we can try to help our friends so that their situations can be at least control and others aren't harmed.

[purrtagonist]

Better.

[much better, for someone as determined as Akira. for someone who hates just sitting around and dong nothing]

I've been trying to remind them of what's real, actually. So far, it hasn't worked, but--

[better than nothing]

dong nothing huh

[deathboss]

[Eikichi nods. Or nods from where he is, at any rate.]

Gotcha. I'll do my part too. At least make it so whatever hell they're currently stuck in isn't as bad. You can count on me!
