Text/Voice/Hell on Eyes and Ears [Forward dated!]
[Hello, Chosen! It’s probably mid-to-late afternoon on the 28th. The kidnapees have been missing all day… And exploring their lil island prison. Finally, this idiot with a functional charm has thought to, you know, chime in and let people know!
And boy the message is a bit rough. The text portions are staticy enough, and the voice parts are worse, garbled and cutting out constantly. The charms work, but just barely, seems like. Feel free to assume any parts of this are illegible or incomprehensible!]
▒▒▒▒▒▒he snake-people are assholes, ◫█◫█████. [A PAUSE.] Not– you, Dara, you’re f░░░░░.
If anyone’s s▯▦▦▒▒ , watch your d░░ks around ‘em.
░▒░uple’ve us are-
N▓, Senpai, li▧tkehis-!
[A beat, some static as Kotone attempts to change over to video– and the line goes completely dead.
There’s a good period of silence as they figure out– hey, it’s not actually recording anything!! And then compromise on a voice recording that sounds like it’s been spoken into a fan and then re-mixed by someone who has no idea how to use audio editing software.]

[Not before she hurt a lot of people. Not before she almost killed Akira. She doesn't even know if any of the townsfolk who were killed had been her fault, not really -- it's hard to remember any of what had been happening while her mind had been controlled.
But in answer to Shinji's question -- yeah. Dazai had managed to stop her in the end with just a touch. She glances back to him with clear interest and no small amount of concern, tilting her head and studying his face.]
...The suppressants...?
[Mr. Anime Cough-!!! She hadn't known at the time, but after the fact, it hadn't been too hard to start putting all the pieces together.]
no subject
If I tried relying on those here, I'd just run out. That's not a fix if I got no supply.
[He shakes his head again.]
I just mean.... with any luck, we won't have to worry about that particular time bomb.
no subject
...Okay, [she says simply, the corner of her mouth twitching up in a kind of resigned acceptance. He doesn't have to tell her, and she won't push, it's not her style. Definitely not with him, anyway -- the fact that he's telling her anything at all is a huge step, so she won't reach in there and yank it out if she doesn't have to.] Just let me know if you're gonna need anything.
