Yes.

[The answer is curt and if anything even more defensive than any other answer and she winces at it.

It sounds like she implies Kaoru is none of his business and it's all the paranoia talking.]


....Yeah. She's here. I know she is.

[moribound]

[He's never known Shiho to be this defensive, and Minato immediately wonders if she's been affected by the mask like him. His mask is still tied to his wrist, and it's made visible when he folds his arms and turns back to look at her.]

Did your mask get attached to your face before this? You're acting pretty strange, and I haven't been feeling well since we were taken here.

[good_ideas]

...It did. [More like she'd thrown it and then it had bounced back at her almost as if it were magnetically attracted to her face...]

....did yours get attached to your face, too?

[moribound]

[He nods.] Twice. I tried to throw it a few times, and it also attached itself to my face when I tried to hide it. [And that second time had been worse in a sense, since he hadn't expected it at all.]

[good_ideas]

Yeah. That's exactly what I did too, minus the hiding. [Shiho sighs heavily...so that's what this is all about.]

[moribound]

[That sure is what it's all about, and Minato sighs sympathetically. These masks aren't easy to deal with.]

It can't be helped. Let's get out of here and look for our friends...it's pretty dangerous here. [Being on edge and feeling disposable isn't the best thing to have in a risky area, after all.]

[good_ideas]

[It can be helped if they destroyed CERES!!!]

Fine. Maybe we can find Kaz or Kaoru or something. [Or (and she can't believe she's actually thinking about it but) better yet: that lolicon.]

[moribound]

[All he does is to nod as they get going, but Minato looks a little off to the side when 'something' is mentioned- he knows Shiho well enough to tell that something isn't literally what it means.

Something's probably better than being called a lolicon, he assumes. ]

Okay. We might run into Kaz first...I think he's probably looking for me.

[good_ideas]

As long as it isn't so he can dunk you into a garbage can again.

[Not that she cares or anything though. Nope.]
