So here's the thing…

We have a lot of work left to do. Those of you who ventured down below got a taste of what we're looking at and hopefully that means we can make better preparations. I'm working on opening a new portal based on your energy readings and getting it to stabilize itself so you aren't stuck down there longer than you have to be. May take a few days, but I'm hoping to get a map drawn up, too.

How many of you have been out to Magatus? You might wanna compare notes…the influence started spreading even further. It's better to bring everything and everyone out there back to the city where we can put up forcefields and I can monitor from here.

So what am I saying? I need two teams, a rescue team and an exploration team. Take some time to decide, figure out your skills, organize and arm yourselves. Assignments will go out when you're ready, and when I'm ready.

Oh yeah…and if you're interested in working for me directly? Send me your résumé.

Don't twist my words. You're the one who kicked me out the front door when I thought we were friends

[But he'll be gentler.]

To be honest, I should lecture you on going down there without any kind of training, but...well, honestly, I'd have done the same thing. And I'm proud of you for signing up for that self defense. It takes a proactive person to take steps in covering their own weaknesses So let's just hypothetically think about something: What if it wasn't an 'effort' to care about you? What if I just wanted someone to play Love Live with me and laugh at my bad pulls? Or someone to teach me how to kick Rean's ass in Mario Kart (Koopa's still the best character I call dibs) Hypothetically

Maybe you shouldn't assume things to begin with.

As for your question, is that all? You can get all that sort of stuff from someone else. It doesn't have to be me.

The pots shouldn't be too hard on the kettles Ms. Queen of Assuming I'll Hate Your Guts

[Really Raina, you set yourself up so easily.]

I guess I could But I'd like to get to know you a little better first before we can dig deeper than that. It's how friendships work, Raina, you work towards it Just like you don't see immediate results with training

You got me there, but I know I'm right. Nobody would want to be friends with someone like me once they know what kind of person I am.

Getting to know me more isn't going to be worth it.

How about we let me decide that. I'm not asking for BFF status, or anything...you'll get someone way better than me for that But what do you say, entry level position as mobage friends?

Fine.

Just give me a second to screencap my profile.

[ A few moments later, this is sent! Just pretend the love gem count is higher, though... ]

[SUCCESS! If you could see him now, he'd probably be wagging his metaphorical tail.]

Sweet! [He'll just screencap his back, just so she can identify him. His name is Crow as always, and his profile idol is this girl.]

[ Don't think you've won just because you've gotten her profile, Crow...! ]

Oh, so that's your best girl?

[He won a little, teensy bit ❤️]

You betcha! Kotori's my girl~ I finally got her Valentine version, and that was even before February took its toll on my wallet!

[ Is this really winning, Crow... ]

I don't know if I should feel sorry for you or not, given that gunning for a specific SR when that set's so old and the boxes are bloated with SRs.

[A 50 cent win is still a win.]

Heh, I know, I know, I bet you're thinking Crow there's plenty of SSRs in your lineup you can use But she's my favourite and my Lord Luck got her for me

I mean, I won't deny that some of her SSRs are cute. The pajama set one is probably my favorite SSR of her.

And I have some of her URs, although I don't roll for her that often.

See? Appreciating her means you're a woman of culture So who's yours? Kunikida? Or do you just go for who's good?

[ she's not going to say it, she's not going to say it- ]

Dia, actually. At least, for Aqours, anyway. Hanamaru's on my profile since her birthday's coming up and I'm rolling in her birthday box.

[Let him have fun!!!]

Ah, they're both cuties Can't really say there's anyone I'd hate getting, but I have enough of You to last me for days
