"all chickens are liars"

[circumitus]

[Heh heh heh.]

[puzzlingly]

「He knows where you live...」

[circumitus]

[Yeah, well. She knows you're a nerd.]

[puzzlingly]

「Shots were fired!」

no

[circumitus]

good.

let me know if you decide to change your mind. can give you a few tips.

[puzzlingly]

what kind of tips?

「He wants them anyway. Not for himself, that much is obvious.」

[circumitus]

have some skills in navigating open waters.
or, well
one of my old selves did.
argentine navy.

except she sort of
drowned so

would be able to tell you how best NOT to do that.

[puzzlingly]

sort of...

ok then
im all ears

[circumitus]

[Well, you know. Either it was the several hundred bullets that killed her or the drowning part that did it. Whatever, same difference.]

can show you some things if you dont mind boating to the south island.

itll be a training montage.

everyone likes a montage.

[puzzlingly]

「Context matters!」

got nothing else to do why not

[circumitus]

[Eh, who needs to know those little details, anyway.]

wow no need to get too excited or anything

[puzzlingly]

lets just say the last attempt at it sucked

[circumitus]

well this one is NOT going to suck.
and if you go in with that attitude be prepared for your ass to get kicked.

or cry. supposed to be helping sorrow for this one.

[On second thought, maybe she should make him cry!]

[puzzlingly]

youre not doing a good job at that let me tell you
cause
lol

[circumitus]

give it time.
its no good if you know when itll happen.

[puzzlingly]

so thats your evil plan?
to take me on this trip and then when i least expect it youll deliver a bomb and try to make me sad?
you dont even have to try so hard

「Too revealing? Nah.」

but okay yeah see you soon

[circumitus]

dont be ridiculous.
the "plan" is to teach you how not to die better.
your tears would just be an added bonus.

[You gonna be a crybaby king, Atem? Rey could use the ammo.]

but yeah sure get your ass southside.

[puzzlingly]

i think youre gonna be disappointed

「The crybaby Pharaoh wants milk, now fetch him a nipple」

[circumitus]

its okay - always been used to disappointment that ive learned never set expectations very high in the first place anyway.

[puzzlingly]

「holy shi--」

you do you ;)

「He's gonna be late just on purpose.

...

No, he'd feel bad. 」
