hey. looks like you're all busy right now and joanne is down with a cold, so this probably doesn't have to be fancy. r&d doesn't report anything major for the next month so don't be dumbasses and make a problem of your own. don't fuck with the liaison, we're not replacing him. looks like there's some weird fucking stone at city hall now. enjoy that, i guess. pretty sure zee warned you about the stones, but if you broke it, that sucks and we don't know how to fucking fix it yet so good job, idiot. you might need to be a little proactive. r&d probably has something in mind, but good fucking luck getting a straight answer out of any of them but the kid. maybe they'll at least tell zee what they need, though. or if you're chill with the loss, whatever. that's about it. wait, right. joanne wanted to thank two of you for letting her help with holiday shit last month. thanks for not being assholes. the kid likes having stuff to do, i guess. and that's really it. later.

you know me, lang, so you can get an idea of what he's like based off that. kaz's more ... i dunno, serious, harder to read, a lot of the time, but anybody that knew him'd be able to tell that he was really feelin happy
but it wouldn't surprise me if the city had more things goin on than just the monsters and other stuff runnin around
but did the changes benefit you in any way..?

the dome, that was one hell of a thing, especially with how it reacted to people touchin it
i didn't press my luck, but i did give it a tap, and it seemed primed to do more if i tried anythin else

but they built up the storm, and then there were just the things that i told you about? it seems a little more than strange. especially after what everybody's told me about august
somethin's up

[... he can't even imagine a cheerful Kuro, so to think that a more serious version of him was acting happy......]

... oh. That

That must have been quite the experience. [REALLY, HE'S HAVING A HARD TIME PICTURING THIS.....] Is it possible part of it had to do with those heart shaped stones we received? I noticed that whenever I held mine, I felt... better, so it could have been some sort of influence from it. [Or rather, since it was filled with his love for Sakura, he felt less confused and worried over his feelings, but he wasn't... about to specify THAT.]

But... they did, sort of. I was able to see someone in my group I wasn't able to before, and those instincts helped us track down someone we were supposed to catch, along with... other things. Aside from that, though, they're mostly distracting.

Something is definitely up, though. Either they exaggerated, greatly, or this wasn't the storm they were referring to. I'm not really sure I'm crazy about either of those options.

[ He can be happy! ... he's just more chill, all the time. ]

it could've, i think? seein him like that should've been weird, probably, but i had that stone thing with me and instead i wound up feelin more fond than anything else
around him, and other people that i knew. or when i was talkin to them, like when you got back to me
that could've had an effect on how he was actin, and how you felt better, maybe

if they're distractin you now, it might be cause you've never had them before, so you haven't had time to adjust, or train them. we can start doin somethin if you want to hone them more? cause that sounds like somethin that you'll need, with the things that happen around here

especially if the second one happens
we can't be caught unawares anymore if we can help it
cause even after just a month, i've got a feelin that it wasn't exaggeration

Maybe these stones make people happier? It would make sense, considering how they were telling us to take care of them, and not to break them. Though I don't know what the consequences for that would be if you did. You said you felt that way towards multiple people, though? I didn't think that could be possible. [Because... huh. His had only worked when it involved Sakura, so was there something behind that? It's love, you dork. It's because you love her.]

I'm not sure exactly how I can train them. I haven't figured out what sets it off yet, since nothing that has seems to have a common theme. Sometimes it's people, and sometimes it's objects... some people have suggested it's a sixth sense, but that seems too... abstract to try to hone. Unless you have any ideas?
