[......but that answer is avoiding the actual reason, and.... Not sharing that with Scott kind of?? feels bad?? Like this guy has seen basically everything else and still been there to listen and support. And so, a few minutes later, Shinjiro adds on:]
That kid, Ken Amada, joined SEES. asked to himself.
[And.... he has no idea what to follow that up with. Still doesn't know if he came back to try and prevent him from getting too involved, or to let him have his vengeance, or.... anything.]
yeah i think she has a couple of ideas in mind. you should come and visit, she'll be really happy about it.
[And he's all about making Kotone happy. But...... okay serious time.]
the kid who lost his mom. [In other words, the kid's there and his mom's 'murderer' is on the same team. That's.... yeah. Okay, time to dig a little more into this.]
and so he's on the same team and fighting shadows with you guys? did he say why he wanted to join? does he know about... you?
[He'd mention that if they have that much empty space, maybe he'll even take a room to actually have a place to put stuff. But.... unfortunately serious time.]
There's no way he doesn't. It's.... pretty tense in the dorm sometimes.
I'm sure he said something about wanting to help everyone fight or whatever. But my guess is he either wants to get closer for info or an opportunity. It's fucked up. He's a kid. It's bad enough the rest of us got wrapped up in it- he could actually go have a future, but instead he's with us risking his life.
has he said anything to you? or... have you said anything to him? i'm sure it's gonna come up eventually.
do you think he wants to hurt you?
[Since he mentioned Ken wanting an 'opportunity.' The implication there isn't great, or maybe he's reading too much into it. But. He can't help but worry.]
and won't lie man, a lot of what i hear about sees and shit sounds pretty fucked up. but. it's not just him that can have a future, you and the others are still the same. you're like my age for christ sake.
[He doesn't comment on the fact that it will come up eventually. He's sure it will. He'd been ready for it to be soon, before waking up in a sex resort with no way home.]
Everything about it sucks, yeah. People really fucked up, and now they gotta rely on whoever they can find or make that's got the powers they need. Another reason I quit.
What about you? Is you leading your team different?
make?? oh right, there's a robot on the team. kotone mentioned that.
but honestly? we haven't really been on any missions besides that initial... saving the world together thing. i don't know how we're actually going to work when we get out in the field. we're doing training sessions, sure, but it's different actually being out there.
[it's not clear if he's agreeing to the timebomb of tension or to the robot. And he's absolutely not going to bring up Strega and the human experiments that forced Personas out of them. This is a bleak enough conversation as is.]
But you're still a team of kids out there risking your life. Like you said, you're my age: and someone put you in charge of a team to fight and save the world. Doesn't sound too different from SEES.
although i imagine that my two instructors will probably help lead until i'm fully ready. maybe it's a little less fucked up in that regard? but i am going to be responsible for their lives. and the mission.
and i guess making sure that i don't make human mutant relations even more fucked up.
yeah, we have to be in the public, i think? make ourselves known and hope that the government doesn't try to gun us down in the process. but. i want to do this, shinjiro. even if it's a lot of pressure.
[He has to keep focused on that, right? Even if there are mutant realities where the X-Men are just dead or imprisoned. He can't... he can't let that stop him.]
basketball???? do you like basketball or something?
Like an indoor space with the fake sunlight or a fake outdoor space? Might be nice to do inside the a ton of windows or something. Sun in the day, stars at night or something.
yeah all the lights and casino bullshit makes it hard to keep track of time, too.
indoor space with fake sunlight, with a bunch of windows and a door leading to the 'outside.' and yeah, that's a good idea, i'm sure i can set a timer to make the sun change to stars to emulate an actual day.
give some feeling that time is passing, other than looking at our watch.
although do you think it's bad to get too comfortable in a place like this?
Yeah, that sounds nice. It was hard to ever really see the stars, living in the city.
[That last question takes a bit more time to formulate a response to.]
We can't up and leave, so I don't think denying things just to make yourself suffer is gonna help anyone. [cue the laughtrack at this coming from Shinji. But it's true, he's definitely lightened up himself after months here.]
If you got the chance to be comfortable, than be comfortable as long as it lasts. Might not get the opportunity again after.
[He is right, probably. Maybe it's just nice hearing all this from someone else, especially someone like Shinjiro. He isn't really the type to bullshit about this sort of thing. Probably.
Although...]
speaking of chance to get comfortable, you should live with kotone. or me, whichever. no reason for you to keep living down in the basement without a shitter nearby.

time isn't real

[he has no idea if he's ever mentioned it's mitsuru's family running the thing.... whoops?]
Lotta pressure. I'm glad I was never into the leader type stuff. Especially since it sounds like the stuff you guys do is actually public.
[.....Damn. He really got them on a depressing conversation track. After a moment, another suggestion for the suite]
get a basketball court
no subject

basketball???? do you like basketball or something?
no subject
Nah, I dunno how to play. Just another idea for you to fill your suite with shit. Bet you could find people to play, though.
no subject
i don't really like basketball though. but i guess i could just have it there if other people like it.
honestly, thinking of having a sun room. get some more makeshift sunlight and shit in here. the lack of sun makes me feel groggy at times.
no subject
