[straying]

Hey everyone, it's been... what, three days now? How's everyone holding up in their switched bodies?

It... doesn't sound all too comfortable. So I can't say that I'm envious. I wish I had more advice but... Try to tough it out? Or reap the benefits of the new body you're in and try a few things! At least, that's what I would try to do.

[She snickers.] But this week actually brought in a few good things! First time in a while that I was able to sleep without worrying about some idiot trying to break in my apartment~ [a soft click in the background, not that Saya notices] But I guess that's what happens when a body's not suited for certain things-

[And then there's footsteps-

Wait. Footsteps? She's not pacing-]

Hey, Saya!

[At first, there's silence. Perhaps a second or two passes before the feed ends riiiight after the SFC goes soaring through the air towards a wall.

So much for 'toughing it out'.]

Depends on if Matthew told him everything which is... really up for debate.

If he's skilled, he probably won't be, though. I'd been meaning to get in touch with him to fill in any missing parts of information, though.

[Matthew is never on anyone's good side.]

[countrybeloved.livejournal.com]

[He lets out a sigh, smiling lightly.]

Well, Obi's a talented guy. If he's careful, I'm sure he'll be fine.

[He's the one Zen entrusted Shirayuki's safety with, after all.]

Why don't you pass it on through me, then?

[sweeperesque.livejournal.com]

I suppose that if you have faith in him, I don't have any reason not to.

And if you're willing, I'd really appreciate it.

[countrybeloved.livejournal.com]

Why wouldn't I be? I've got no plans on keeping Obi in the dark, and besides, I'd be at a disadvantage too.

[sweeperesque.livejournal.com]

That's quite a close relationship you have there. Good friends?

[countrybeloved.livejournal.com]

You could say that.

[sweeperesque.livejournal.com]

Well, whatever it is, it's nice to see.

And, uh... Sorry if Matthew causes you any trouble- whether it be now or in the future.

[countrybeloved.livejournal.com]

Ha, ha... I put up with Obi, don't I? And on that note, I apologize on his behalf if he does anything stupid.

[sweeperesque.livejournal.com]

I actually like Obi a lot more, so it's fine.

[1/2]

[countrybeloved.livejournal.com]

You do?

[2/2]

[countrybeloved.livejournal.com]

... Wow, what'd this Matthew guy do?

[sweeperesque.livejournal.com]

There's a list of things.

[countrybeloved.livejournal.com]

I'll have to meet him for himself one day, looks like.

[sweeperesque.livejournal.com]

Well I can tell you in advance that he's a bit of a jerk.

... not that bad of a person though, when it really comes down to it.

[countrybeloved.livejournal.com]

... Definitely sounds like quite the character. Still, he can't be as annoying as Obi.

[sweeperesque.livejournal.com]

Obi's actually been a gentleman so far! ... Should I expect for that to stop?

[countrybeloved.livejournal.com]

Obi's an... interesting guy. I've got no doubts that he acts like a gentleman in most of what he does—it's just what he does that's the problem.

[sweeperesque.livejournal.com]

Hmm, they seem to have thier own little set of rules, don't they?

If you don't mind me asking, what is Obi's... profession, exactly? Matthew's a clean-cut thief, but I can't figure out what Obi does.

[countrybeloved.livejournal.com]

Profession, huh...?

[A pause]

I wouldn't be surprised if that guy's been a thief at some point, but right now? He works for me.

[sweeperesque.livejournal.com]

... huh! Didn't see that coming.

[countrybeloved.livejournal.com]

Really?

[sweeperesque.livejournal.com]

I never pegged Obi for the kind of guy who would work for someone else.

[countrybeloved.livejournal.com]

[What.]

... You definitely don't know him, then.

[sweeperesque.livejournal.com]

Hard to judge from one conversation and a passing arrow.

[countrybeloved.livejournal.com]

[What.]

Wait—what arrow!?
