...I want to think there's really a reason for it, but I'm starting to think it's all just a sick joke instead. Purposefully leaving out a book like that? The items they gave us? Seems way too planned.
Either if we do or don't it both lead to a similar place for their enjoyment. [ WHERE IS HIS CONSENT!!!! ] We may take matters into our own hands but even that is...... tainted.
[ it certainly puts a bad taste in his mouth that's for sure. ]
[...] We're all going to have to agree to do this. Nobody really gets a choice, but at the same time we sort of do? There's still twenty-nine of us left who weren't part of a sacrifice. People can still pick and choose who's working together.
[Consent can still happen even if it's a life or death situation, basically.]
Could be. But most people here don't mind talking to others. Do people really need a reason to?
[Sometimes Junpei talks to himself and that's how he gets attention, but for the most part he has zero problem walking up to people and interrogating them.]
Perhaps not. [ he tilts his head trying to think of how to explain. there's gotta be a decent way to say 'i'm used to serving humans as an object/subservient to them than talking to them at the same level' ] I believe I am just unused to the idea.
[Luckily, he's figured out Tonbo's in the same situation as a lot of the other swords by nature of talking to those swords. Don't mind him as he takes a sip and tilts his head questioningly.]
...how long have you been around humanity? You were summoned the same way as the others, right?
Yes, all sword spirits are summoned the same way by our master.
[ oh no now he has to math. f. ] ....Our last mission alone was seventy four years? However, we tend to keep our distance as much as possible even within interacting with them. [ so they don't like. accidentally fuck up anything ]
[Seventy four years sounds like eternity when you're twenty-two, so give him a moment.]
Right. Observing in their natural habitat and all. [Hm.] Hope you're ready to get really close really fast. There aren't many places for us to go. We're sort of stuck together.
[...let's try easy mode.] Have you spoken to Katy a lot yet? Heard you guys were roommates.
[ enough time to raise someone from a bab to his death bed :') ]
It's certainly different but... I don't think I mind too much. [ it's been nice to change things up a little. AND SINCE THEY ALL CAN'T PARTICULARLY GET IN TROUBLE HERE FOR SPILLING EVERY SINGLE TIME GOVERNMENT SECRET..... ]
......... Ah... we've had a conversation? [ does agreeing on bed arrangements count as a full conversation? ]
[As far as Junpei can tell, Tonbokiri seems fairly inoffensive and shouldn't have problems with people talking to him. On the other hand, that last sentence doesn't inspire too much confidence and he blinks curiously.]

...didn't go too well?
no subject
I suppose it went well? We only had the one conversation thus far.

Keep trying. It gets easier with practice. I think by the time this is all over we'll be a little too comfortable...
no subject
There is no doubt we all will have plenty of experience by then.
no subject
If you ever need guidance, I'll be around. I've had enough experience to get by. With...talking, I mean.
no subject
I'll be sure to remember that.
