[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'.]

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.

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!?

[sweeperesque.livejournal.com]

That's how he got Matthew's attention. They had a little meeting that I wasn't invited to.

[countrybeloved.livejournal.com]

[... She can't be saying what he thinks she's saying.]

You mean Obi shot an arrow at the guy!?
