[ it's fine. i support you becks. ]

....Hansa almost did. The fortune teller threw her crystal ball at him.

[chanteuser]

[ she closes her eyes ]

Why did the fortune teller throw a crystal ball at him...?

[sacredchants]

He tried to run off with her cat.

[ alex. your romance. ]

[chanteuser]

[ yeah? ]

...

[ she just has a look on her face that pretty much says "yeah, that scans though?" ]

[sacredchants]

[ alex...???? ]

He also managed to do something with his arm. Uh, do you know anything about that?

[chanteuser]

... You'd have to be specific? [ like. anyone can do something with their arms, izumo. arms can move and do things. ]

[sacredchants]

[ she just. kind of gestures behind herself as inhumanely possible as she can with the hope that alex can understand. ]

Something like that.

[chanteuser]

[ oh. ]

... I see?

[ she doesn't seem? too bothered by this? ]

[sacredchants]

[ ????

???

????? ]

You...see?

[chanteuser]

Yes.

[ ...

...

...

... ? ]

What's... the issue, Izumo?

[sacredchants]

He seemed to be confused with his arm.

[ also a very different version of himself that she was unfamiliar with but that's also neither here or there. ]

[chanteuser]

... Yeah, he probably would. I should check on him.

[ izumo is still not really asking the right question to get an answer?? ]

[sacredchants]

[ ...... ]

Do you know why he changed? [ she's. doing her best. ] You know, since you're close to him.

[ alex your Romance. ]

[chanteuser]

[ she just taps her own forehead. ]

Why do any of us change here?

[sacredchants]

[ LISTEN SHE'S TRYING TO BE COY.....for once. except she just gives up because she tried. ]

Is he the person you mentioned from before?

[chanteuser]

...

[ she looks very blank. izumo. IZUMO JUST. JUST USE YOUR WORDS. A LOT HAS HAPPENED OVER THE PAST FEW WEEKS. she's mentioned a lot of people?? ]

[sacredchants]

[ i'm in tears. ]

Th, the person back when we were talking a, about Alphinaud. You know! About not waiting! A, and taking the risks.

[ not that she ever named him but it's okay.... ]

[chanteuser]

[ oh. well, rip in heck naru because alex is immediately latching onto that: ]

Alphinaud?!

[ ahhh. AHHHHH. IZUMO YOUR BOY!!! ] Oh my gosh, was this why he was so cagey talking about who he liked a few weeks back at curfew?

[ THESE DEETS JUST COMING RIGHT OUT OF THE WOODWORK!! ]

[sacredchants]

[ NO THIS IS NOT WHAT SHE WANTED.

also please help her she has no idea what alex is referring to. ]

C, cagey? Wh, what are you talking about?

[chanteuser]

We were talking about romance, and he was very specific about keeping his privacy when we were asking him.

I... guess I can see why, now. If you two were dancing around each other at the time. Privacy is important, while you're working things out.

[sacredchants]

I... I don't think we were dancing around too much.

[ she was definitely dancing around the topic, at least? because...well. what is romance in this kind of environment?? not that it hasn't been nice. ]

He seemed rather confident.

[ AND THAT'S ALL SHE'LL SAY ABOUT THAT BEFORE DYING. ]

[chanteuser]

[ oho. alphinaud. ]

Mm. That explains even more then. Whether he was confidant or not, it's better to work things out quietly, right?

[sacredchants]

[ wilts. ]

Explains even more? [ WHAT HAPPENED IN THAT CURFEW?? ] But...y, yes...and keeping attention off of ourselves.

[chanteuser]

It makes sense. It's... better to know where you stand with someone before everyone else you know gets involved.

[sacredchants]

[ she'll just have to nod at that. ]

This place sure is obsessed with learning about who is with who.

[ which is funny because of how few people icly Know for Certain. ]
