[LISTEN it's just because Kaveh mostly remembers their extremely heavy and depressing same-hat discussions, okay, he forgot that Matsui's a little freak when everything is marginally less terrible

BRISTLES BACK INSTINCTIVELY but not as much]

What? I never said he didn't.

[foxicide]

[HMPH..... he looks away at wherever is next to him that you won't know until gy reveal ig]

Good. Because you shouldn't.

[rang doesn't understand defending people that's a new thing for him]

[ohthehumanities]

[I can't believe Kaveh doesn't even know the word tsundere]

First you mock me for having too much faith in people, then you think I'd think poorly of him for some odd habits? [MAKE UP YOUR MIND.] Matsui is my homie too, you know.

[For the record he says this very sincerely, like it's a completely normal word]

[foxicide]

[HE KNOWS THE WORD HOMIE AND NOT TSUNDERE????]





Your what.

[ohthehumanities]

Livio said it means "friend," according to Ylfa. Though, she said she got the message from Wenzhou originally, so it might be a term from his world?

[no it's not]

[foxicide]

[lol now it is]

Probably. He did send a lot of weird stuff even though we don't have to anymore.

[that's bc rang said to well that part's irrelevant]

[ohthehumanities]

[The funny thing is that Kaveh also found out it was Rang's fault but I'm saying that happened after this]

Why was it that you didn't have to keep hiding?

[foxicide]

[NO HIS SECRET THAT ALL THE DEAD KNOW ABOUT....]

That's still a secret. Ask me something else.

[ohthehumanities]

Okay, how do you know what needs to be kept secret? Are the Reapers monitoring your communication?

[This is the same question]

[foxicide]

[THIS IS THE SAME QUESTION]

I know because I can read. And I have no idea about the Reapers. I haven't spoken to them since I died.

[ohthehumanities]

So it's something else, then. [Sighs. ALSO WAIT BACKTRACK--] You still haven't explained that! What do you mean we were never dead?

[foxicide]

[THIS ISN'T BACKTRACKING THIS IS AN ENTIRELY NEW SUBJECT]

I thought it was pretty clear? That's why no one remembers how we died.

Of course, our side is dead from being murdered, but you guys are still alive.

[ohthehumanities]

[IT'S BACKTRACKING BACK TO AN OLD CONVERSATION LISTEN]

But, I mean--how did you figure that out? Did you get one of those odd coded messages?

[foxicide]

I can't say. But it wasn't from one of those missions, no.

[his expression tightens a little at the mention of them actually, though he looks away]

[ohthehumanities]

Right... Shenhe mentioned you had those too.

[Though he frowns.]

But... I wonder why? I'd assumed they were just an extra way to get points.

[foxicide]

They are. We can't just lay back and let you all do the work, you know.

[ohthehumanities]

Wait, you're earning points too? [Hunh. He looks thoughtful.] So it is what Nahida meant... that's why we need to keep using our team powers, right?

[foxicide]

You just love asking questions that would be dangerous for me to answer, huh. It's like you're trying to get me into trouble.

[ohthehumanities]

You're enough trouble all on your own, you don't need me for that.

[LISTEN HE'S JUST TRYING TO MAKE SURE THEY CAN SAVE YOUR STUPID CRAZY TSUN ASS]

[foxicide]

[SAY THAT OUT LOUD COWARD]

Enough about me. Tell me what you've been doing.

[ohthehumanities]

[Maybe he will!!!]

I thought you all could see us? [Surely they weren't, like, strangely filtered out of private conversations]

[foxicide]

Only when you're out in public or trapped in the McDonalds. We don't see special missions or erasure, or how much you drink back in your warehouse.

[maybe if u let me into filters then i would be able to see.....]

[ohthehumanities]

[ Okay I'll let you in so you can see Kaveh making out with (train driving by noises)

For the record this is a joke

Also for a second I thought this meant executions and I was like THAT'S WILD]

Ugh, if only. [Why does he say that like he doesn't have multiple bottles of wine in his fridge right now] I don't know what you want me to say, really. Since Shenhe died, I've just been trying to look out for Ylfa and Haru.

[foxicide]

[LET ME INNNNN LET ME IN LET ME INNNNNN

he perks up at that, speaking of ylfa and haru....]

Would you have let them erase you?

[he's curious......]

[ohthehumanities]

[Should've put out a hit on me (pensive)

Anyway. It's more reflex than anything, the way Kaveh averts his gaze and tenses--he's grown too used to being scolded for his self-sacrificial tendencies, and for all that he's been through over the past 8 weeks, he is, in essence, back to where he started: Deflection and lies to make it seem like he's more okay than he actually is. But then he remembers who he's talking to, and, ironically, seems to relax a little bit.

There are people here that he loves dearly, but the fussing can be so oppressive sometimes. It's a bit of a relief, to be honest.]

Yes, I would have. That was the plan if they ended up in trouble at trial. [And also the only reason he never volunteered, aside from not wanting to put Nahida and Shu at risk of team wiping. He figured he could do more good taking the fall for them in an execution, if he had to.]
