Yeah, I've got skills, we don't have to keep mentioning it.

[preowned]

I will keep your skills a secret.

[skyagain]

Great. Thanks.

[ he wishes he were dead. but. yknow. for context: ]

The girl in the crowd. That... was Aerith.

[preowned]

Oh!

She seemed really sweet.

[ so peppy!!!! ]

[skyagain]

[ me asking you for the memshare in the wrong thread is the funniest thing ive ever done ]

... Yeah, I guess.

[ in that moment she was tormenting him by being so delighted at his crossdressing but SURE, SWEET ]

[preowned]

She was very supportive!

[skyagain]

Yeah. Because it was her idea in the first place.

[ >:( ]

[preowned]

It was a good idea...

[ anyway. a memory plays because of convenient dust. ]

[skyagain]

[ well! that sure is a convenient dust memory! except after it cloud is looking at tsuru a little shocked ]

Tsurumaru...

[ WHY WERE YOU POSSESSED BOY ]

[preowned]

... is it okay if I say I got better?

[skyagain]

... It's not worse, but...

[ he's squinting like he is unsure if tsuru really did get better. this is.......a concern ]

[preowned]

I am wearing white, which means it's fine.

[ that's it

that's his argument ]

[skyagain]

... Tsurumaru. [ :| ] Because the color's the only way to tell?

[preowned]

Yes, that's how it works...

[skyagain]

So how'd they separate the armor from you, then?

[preowned]

Oh.

By stabbing me a lot.

[skyagain]

I don't know that I'd call you fine after that.

[ TSURU ]

[preowned]

It was either that or I killed them all...

[skyagain]

...

[ fair enough... ]

... But you got better? I don't know how healing works with the... sword thing.

[preowned]

I promise!

[ he raises his hands. ]

It worked out logistically for us. On its own, the armor was just too strong for us, but possessed... I was able to keep it still just long enough at one point they could hit me.

[skyagain]

So you knew what was happening in there even if you weren't in control? [ hm. that sucks. ]

[preowned]

... yes.

I suppose it's like a puppeteer controlling your every move. [ a pause ] Even if it's not the exact same that's happening here, I wonder if the killers feel similarly.

[skyagain]

... Probably. They might be more in control, but they're still doing stuff they wouldn't of their own volition.

[preowned]

[ he nods ]

The one who got away with it last week... I wonder how they feel.

[skyagain]

... At least guilty enough to either confess to assure people the shadows were gone from them, considering that note, or they haven't spoken up and they found out some other way. Either way, I doubt they feel great about it.
