[Video] 006 ☽

[lunateclock]

[So amidst all of the insanity? The kraken attack and the craziness? There is Minato making an oh-so necessary broadcast. He seems to be leaning against the side of a building, but despite the crashing of what must be tentacles and the panicked atmosphere, he looks pretty calm. Is that blood on his temple...? Oh maybe. And he might be holding his

Video; late-y late late

[he was going to say something but then that happened, and well--]

Minato!

Video; you are always on time

[lunateclock]

[It takes him a few moments to pick up the SFC; when he does finally reappear on it, he looks a little dazed and a little pale, but otherwise alright.]

...Jim? Ah--are you alright?

[myowncourse]

By thunder, you gave me a frigging scare.

[holding his chest, before he coughs, slightly embarrassed.]

I'm fine. You're the one who got knocked down here.

[lunateclock]

[Whoops. He drops his own gaze somewhat sheepishly, running a hand through blue hair.]

I'm sorry. I didn't mean to worry you.

[A quiet sigh, but he cuts it off and winces instead. Ow that hurts.]

...I hadn't noticed.

[He still has his dry sense of humor, and Jim seems to pull it out of him the most.]

[myowncourse]

Yeah, yeah, you're mister invincible, all right.

Listen, don't overdo it, okay? I know this thing is big and ugly. Smells like all the bad fish markets in my life put together, but... you better not die here.

Video;

[lunateclock]

[...right.]

I never said I was.

[He merely nods in return.]

I think Aniki would kill me if I died here; I'll just have to avoid that.

[myowncourse]

You act like it, sometimes. We're in this together. Remember that.

And when this thing is gone, you're telling me more about this defense force thing. I haven't heard of that yet.

Video;

[lunateclock]

[...awww Jim. Another nod, determined.]

Got it.

[And a slight pause.]

Thanks, Jim.

[As for the defense force...]

I'll be sure to; if you want in, you're welcome to join.

[myowncourse]

I'm not really good at fighting, but if me joining can help a few people out, then I'm willing to. Besides, that loud pirate seems set on teaching me self defense anyway.

Video;

[lunateclock]

[He nods.]

Aniki's a good teacher; I'm sure you'll pick it up fast. We need help for more than just fighting anyway.

Video;

[myowncourse]

Really? What sort of other things to do you need done?

[He really wants to help out in some way. Damn this Disney sense of responsibility.]

Video;

[lunateclock]

[Your protag sensibilities, let him approve of them.]

You could probably still help with patrolling, since you'll be with a partner. Likewise, we need support of all sorts, including technical.

You're pretty good at that, aren't you?

Video;

[myowncourse]

I got... a knack for it, I guess. But if that or patrolling could help you out, I'm happy to. Better than just sitting here.

Video;

[lunateclock]

[...pff.]

If what you just did is just a knack, I'd hate to hear how bad the rest of us are at it. But alright. After this chaos--

[He gestures, and immediately pays for it, wincing somewhat.]

We'll get it all sorted out with Hubert-san.

...And thanks. We need all the help we can get.

[myowncourse]

It's no big deal. We're all in this together. We should try to stick together. It's our best shot for getting to go home.

Video;

[lunateclock]

[...getting home. Right.

He'd almost forgotten that--]

Of course. We'll definitely find a way to return to our worlds.

I'll be depending on you, then. Jim.
