[ Because when you call Fawkes out of the blue the first thing you're likely to say is — Hello, Kitty ]

7/10 BREAKS THIS IN

[crudest]

[And because he has to get the joke in there:] Hello Kitty!

[HE'S SO HAPPY ABOUT THIS JOKE?]

Alright Kit Kat, here's an idea for you. Twenty bucks for you to hijack a discussion session for some Philosophy 101 class. Don't care what you say, don't care what your actual lecture material is but how about every time you have to say Aristotle, you pronounce it like Chipotle? [and he actually can't... manage to say that with a straight face... it can't be seen, but it's easily imagined how Baren throws his head back in a full laugh] Ahaha! Aristotlay! C'mon, that'd be a riot! I'd actually go to that class!

[You know, a sensible person would not pick up the figurative phone here. A sensible person would appreciate the inanity of this moment, and pretend as though he was away from the offensively pink walkie-talkie, or otherwise unavailable. A sensible person would have better things to do than indulge this overt madness.

But sometimes Fawkes is not a sensible person, and there is frankly only one appropriate response to a moment like this: ]

...New phone. Who dis?

[God help us all it's a walkie-talkie you piece of shit.]

[crudest]

[despite everything Baren still laughs....]

Your secret lover from Canada. Who else? Are you walkie talkie cheating on me? Is it too soon for a you sly fox joke?

start of week 2

[crudest]

[Aside from the Retrospec post itself, Baren is going to go ahead and utilize his personal hotline for Fawkes - whether this is a good or bad thing remains to be seen.]

I need to borrow you, Foxy! Are we having a drink or getting more fireworks, your pick.

[oh ok]

[roseblooms]

[Well, well, what do you know — his walkie talkie is kirakiraing. And with the speed at which he picks up, it's apparent that he's taken Baren's earlier insistence to heart, and kept his walkie talkie close at hand ever since this whole bout of shenanigans started.]

I think I'll take the drink. I've had my fill of explosions for awhile around here, haven't you?

end of week 2

[crudest]

[Before anything else:]

If you touched my sister, I'm cutting off your hands.

[that's definitely a nice thing to hear from baren first thing after a week of silence

he's alive..... but at what cost]

[roseblooms]

[Nice enough that he practically jumps out of his skin when his walkie-talkie crackles in order to herald this message.]

Is that the standard penalty for touching sisters? I'm an only child, I wouldn't know.

9/3 | text | fuck it i'm putting all our shit in here so it's easy to find

[crudest]

kink bingo could've gotten better

[shit baren says to chuuya]

[roseblooms]

It certainly could've.

I could've been invited to it.

[crudest]

to field a love confession and honestly think i'll handle it with the grace of an overturned tortoise

[roseblooms]

You do have the grace of an overturned tortoise. And an awkward one at that.

forward dated to 9/24 misfire

[crudest]

and if you forget the dryers sheets i will literally throw you out of your own apartment

[roseblooms]

An impressive feat considering I'm not entirely sure you know where I live.

10/1

[crudest]

so do you want some roses

[roseblooms]

So much for deleting me from your life. What makes you think I need any more roses than I can grow for myself already?

12/1

[crudest]

[Of all the things that Baren brought to the hospital it would turn out that the hello kitty walkie talkie is in fact one of them.]

Ohhhh Kitty Kat, I have an idea for you.

[roseblooms]

[Well, well, look who it is. This is certainly more interesting than being mopey that his mother still isn't picking up the phone, to be sure.]

An idea for me? Do tell.

fun question
ever had a problem differentiating between memories and dreams

[roseblooms]

I did a few months back. When I was still having kitsune dreams.

Something tells me this question isn't as fun as you'd like it to be.

[sup!! baren harassed the npc for listings of where everyone in the event is assigned to group-wise and where they're going. so that means group 3 is being assaulted with unwanted texts for reasons that will become clear almost immediately.

however in exchange, he does attach the aforementioned helpful list to the text before he sends his actual text.]

foxy
mimori togo's in your group
she's smart witty and super cute
long black hair wheelchair might have a floating egg
she's my cousin

[he thinks that should explain enough]

[ooc: if you need to drop this thread/ignore this text due to event workload, i totally understand and feel free!]

[roseblooms]

The Shenanigans Six ride again, I see.

Your cousin? I'll watch out for her.

I've got Chuuya with me, too.

WHY DIDN'T ANYONE SAY IT'S VALENTINE'S DAY
I NEED ROSES

[roseblooms]

It's like two hours to midnight and you're just remembering this NOW?

backdated to early march | text, inevitable action

[crudest]

so do i finally get to know where you actually live
or does tanuki-san really have to sniff you out
i hope there's nothing on your schedule because i think i owe you dinner and i'm running on borrowed time

[how did he escape chuuya we just don't know]

[roseblooms]

I suppose by now you've earned the right to pay a visit to my den. Unless you'd rather meet somewhere, just for the sake of maintaining the intrigue.

Borrowed time from what, exactly?
