[lempereur]

I will be at the petition booth, if either of you need me.

[codeoracle]

I know. Half the reason I'm okay with going along with this anyway.

...Sorry.

[lempereur]

Don't be. Just stay safe.

[codeoracle]

We will be.

I will be.

[ Since answering Alibaba in public is probably a bad idea... ]

I have not received any threats. The posters are likely some fool's idea of a joke.

What do you call it

Trolling?

[lempereur]

This is mildly related, but

I am quitting my job, do you want anything from there before I leave?

[codeoracle]

Someone needs to be better at trolling. Or get trolled back.


How is this related to you quitting your job? What are you going to be doing instead?

[lempereur]

We're working on it.

I'm going to be focusing on my own art, and going to school.

[codeoracle]

We?

...Makes sense. I had to cut back at my job because of school--I need to find something better still.

[lempereur]

Yuri and I.

The way you have described it, that isn't exactly a tragedy.

[codeoracle]

Ah. He definitely seems the one more up to that sort of job. Let me know if you need an extra hand.

Retail is hell, Inari. Pure hell.

[lempereur]

I will consider you on call.

You should quit.

[codeoracle]

Aren't I always?

I need a new job first...I don't have Sojiro to take care of me here.

[lempereur]

Are you still registered? As long as you are attending school, I believe you can receive a stipend.

[codeoracle]

For now, yeah...I guess that could work for something. I'll...wait and see how long I can make that stipend last first. Just in case.

[lempereur]

It should be enough to live modestly on. I have done well saving, since I came here, I should be alright for a while. Iwai is going to pay me to design some things for his new shop, between that, finishing the mural, and what I receive from Dooku, I can afford to eat.

[codeoracle]

[There's a lull before her next reply comes through.]

What are you going to do if--WHEN we get you out of Constellation? That's still the plan right?

[lempereur]

By then, I should be able to scrape by on my work. I am not relying on dirty money in the first place, it is all being saved, in case of emergency.

[codeoracle]

Scraping by...As long as you aren't like...subsisting or whatever. Take care of yourself.

[lempereur]

I am. I'm learning how to cook.

[codeoracle]

Ooh! Learn anything good? Can I try something you make?!

[lempereur]

Nothing spectacularly complicated yet. A lot of Russian food.

[codeoracle]

Well that's definitely a different flavor. I could probably teach you some of Mom's stuff she gave Sojiro.
I know the basics.

[lempereur]

I would like that. We can trade.

[codeoracle]

It's a deal then. Your recipes for mine.

Fair warning though, Mom's stuff is a family trade--Akira's the only one to have learned before now.
So....might have to swear you to secrecy.
