[Emergency Text] (Backdated to the 5th/early morning of the 6th)

[Maybe Yukio should have let Ken go alone.

Maybe he was being kind of mean, trying to send out a mass text partly to get the other kid in trouble.

But Ken was refusing to listen to reason, and Yukio was tired of not being taken seriously because he was small. Aside from that, he certainly couldn't let Ken go off past the bridge alone. He'd only end up getting hurt. And besides, the last time Yukio went out this far was still fresh in his mind, as well as the minds of quite a few other residents. No one wants to hear about another death.

So as he's following after Ken, he starts hastily typing out a message.]

kid, you're seriously pushing your luck.

[ And yeah, he sees Steven doing the things an earnest young Steven does, which adds another kid to the lot wandering off into enemy territory. Makes them a trio now, and doesn't that remind him of one of the darkest chapters of his nearly half a year in this castle.

There's a twinge of dread in all the exhausted apathy. He could use a nap, but... ]


yeah, sure.
just get back safe.

if anything attacks, don't play hero.
just run back here, ok?
don't pay the ultimate price because of somebody else's mistake.


[ Not again.

He's got a message to send, and then he's going to nap. Wake him when it's over. ]
