[...well, Oriko doesn't seem to be bothering with theatrics this time. If anything she looks completely exhausted; slumped at a table with several stained cups of coffee with that distinctly frazzled, crumpled look of someone who hasn't had any sleep in the last 24 hours. That idiot version of her has managed to create a complete and utter mess for... herself... and urgh things had been going so well. Or at least, mostly according to plan.

Personally, she considers herself just a bit too busy right now to be doing this sort of thing, but some things need to be said.]

Hello. Again.

As you probably gathered, I was under the influence of a virus in my previous announcement. Any promises made are hereby considered null and void.

That's all. Carry on with your day. Miss Tomoe, we need to discuss things.

[and yep, feed cuts out.]

Then take a brief vacation!

...I know I've been on a haitus but I swear I tagged this one.....

[fortheworld]

[Oriko sighs] Well, it's worth a try...

[yes, Witch hunting is still a thing she considers part of 'taking a vacation']

IT'S OKAY i believe you

[tenminutes]

It's settled then. Go somewhere sunny.

I REMEMBER PLURKING ABOUT IT...? sob DW what happened

[fortheworld]

Any recommendations?

DW WHY

[tenminutes]

The beach? And take pictures, I miss the sun. [ THE WEATHER IN ROKKENJIMA SUCKS LET HER TELL YOU ]

[fortheworld]

You could always take one yourself, if you so wished.

[tenminutes]

I could, but then it wouldn't be a souvenir sort of thing. Besides, going off for one day is one thing but I need to stay here for the most part just in case.

[ She can get back quickly enough if she's only gone for a few hours, but she wouldn't want to leave for more than that and miss her chance. ]

[...that word choice sets off alarm bells. Ordinarily, people would refrain from a holiday for reasons such as 'money' or 'my job'. Saying 'something might happen' is a little too close to her own circumstances]

'In case' of... what?

[tenminutes]

[ Yuri thinks for a moment on how to phrase her response, but it doesn't take long. ]

In case I need to be here for someone. I can't say more than that.

[fortheworld]

Then I can't ask. I'll have Kirika pack a camera.

[tenminutes]

Great. And have fun.

[fortheworld]

But of course! Until later, then.
