Hm... That's a good point. I hadn't thought about that.

...Maybe they'll give us magical typewriters, or something?

Magical typewriters would be pretty cool!

Right?! The only issue is how we'd carry it around. They're nowhere near as portable as a phone.

That's true... It would make traveling pretty tough!

Ohhh, but if it's magical, maybe it would be able to collapse somehow? Or, like, turn into a mini typewriter!

Ohh, or if it's magical, it could also shrink...

Yeah, yeah! Then you could just slip it into your pocket and go! Easy as pie!

That'd be really cool! I'll have to ask the staff about it.

It would! Oh, maybe we could put the small version on a keychain, too? Then if anyone asks, you can just say it's a keychain and nothing special. Magic incognito!

Oh, right... I keep forgetting you didn't have magic where you come from! I guess that kind of thing would be pretty hard to explain to people who don't know about it.

Honestly? They'd probs just think you're crazy if you tried... or maybe chuuni? Kumopi's a little like that.

[squints a little bit]

Chuuni...?

Oh, right, you don't know. It's... Well, with Kumopi, it's sort of like wishing he could go to another world and get special powers and stuff? Like, he had this dragon keychain at home that was supposed to protect him or something.

He gets real into that stuff. It's a little confusing, but super cute!

[there's a long moment of confusion.]

So it's like... wanting things that aren't going to happen?

[please say it in a nicer way]

[ THIS IS SO MEAN I'M IN TEARS even kazunari is laughing though ]

You never know! Besides, it sort of did happen? We went to the prism and we did get special powers.

I guess you have a point... Besides, when I was a kid, I'd read a lot and always dream about getting to do the kind of things I would see in books. So I guess I can kind of get in, in that way!

I think that's normal for kids! They say most people grow out of it by the time they're teenagers, though - except chuunis don't, really? So they keep wishing for things like that.

Kumopi can probs explain it better, if you ever get to meet him!

Ohh, so it's like...

[he almost says childish adults but this time he realizes how mean that sounds before it comes out of his mouth]

Well, what I mean is that I get it, I think.

[ rupert is so funny ]

Yeah, I dunno if I totally get it myself, but it's good that they have something they care about a lot, you know?

[he nods easily at that, at least.]

Right! It's always really nice when somebody is passionate about something.

Is there something like that for you, Rupes?

[ this is much better to talk about than trial. ]

Um... Helping people? Making friends?

[closes my eyes]

...There's nothing you like to do just for yourself?

[ hello? rupert?? ]

I mean, I would argue that friendship is definitely something that's for me, but if that's what you mean - reading, I guess! Or spending time with animals.

[nerd]

Hahaha, fair and valid!

[ friends are good and also? nerd solidarity! ]

What kinds of animals, though? Besides Porridge!
