[It takes her many hours more to notice the message.]

Why the wait?

[gluttoning]

dangerous for somebody.

don't ask. can't answer yet. might put me in danger too.

[threatmewted]

[...]

Even if it was in person?

[gluttoning]

don't know. i can't risk it yet. maybe the game knows too. wouldn't let me talk.

don't give up on me though, shoka.

[threatmewted]

Hold up, the game was stopping you from talking?

[gluttoning]

something was.

[threatmewted]

[Well now she feels like a jerk.]

Just what the hell have you gotten yourself into?

[gluttoning]

keep it between us for now okay

i don't know what i'd do if you got hurt because of me. but i'm still here if you need me.

please don't run away yet.

[threatmewted]

How many times do I have to tell you? I can handle myself. Seriously.

Does your family know?

[gluttoning]

no.

keep it between us. i mean it.

[threatmewted]

I heard you the first time. I can keep my mouth shut, you know.

[gluttoning]

wouldn't have texted you otherwise you know :-)

[threatmewted]

[Rude!!]

[threatmewted]

[Okay cool she knows who to murder for that now.]

Yeah, I guess.

Does your whole family usually come to watch?

[gluttoning]

Not all the time. Most of my brothers are pretty busy. Almost all of them were there for my first game, though.

[threatmewted]

Huh.

Nice of them.

[gluttoning]

yeah. it was a surprise for me.

but i like that they're proud of me. [For once. For something.] i like working hard for them.

[threatmewted]

Well, don't work yourself too hard or anything.

[gluttoning]

thanks

lucas would come lecture me out of my grave if I did anything too stupid, anyway. he knows i can be better than that.

[threatmewted]

I'll have to take your word for it, seeing as I'm still not 100% on your entire family's names.

[gluttoning]
