voice; Awake is difficult and no one understands

[promiselisting]

[ Huh. Here is an unusual thing. Futaba is not usually one to use voice (or anything besides text) on the network. Maybe she wants to reassure other people with her voice and to hear theirs? Maybe it has something to do with the fact that her voice is still a bit muzzy with sleep. Maybe text requires more coordination than she has right now.

Either way, she's got an important post from her sort-of-brother to follow up on. ]

So.

How many other memes are you all familiar with? Scientific curiosity.

[ She's been getting reputations up until now. The girl who gathers information. That one who really really mistrusts the Curti Center and is not afraid to be vocally critical of it. But it's past time she showed the world here who she truly is-

a shitposter. ]

( he doesn't want to overwhelm her, is the thought process here at least. her message was getting a lot of attention so rather than bombard or distract her, he sits off in a corner and when he message dings through— looks up with a smile for her.

it was good good to see her laugh and smile again, too.
he pockets his device— ) Now, how about some breakfast?

( regardless of whatever time it was. )

[ She looks up, still smiling herself. ]

Sounds really good.

[ She'd eaten bits and pieces, during those half-hour periods she'd wake up. But she's starving honestly. And a bit parched too. And gross-feeling, though she has a higher tolerance for that. ]
