A 【 ➡ PHONE; DRONE FILTER 】

[ Japan knows well that the filters don't work- which is exactly while he's setting them up anyway. Can't let them suspect that he's aware that he's being listened to now, can he? Which is why, in a way, some of the things he's going to say are actually directed at whoever it is

"A bit tasteless and rather cruel," Japan-san? That is very strong language.

... Is that so, Sasaki-san? I think it might be the opposite, as well.

[cramschoolgod]

[She laughs lightly.]

Yes, perhaps I used a touch of sarcasm there.

[politerudeness]

... A-ah... [ What is sarcasm when you're a socially awkward turtle... ] How embarrassing...

[cramschoolgod]

[Why does the person claiming to be Japan have to be like this >< Not that Sasaki is nationalist in the least, just .... ]

I believe a laugh would be socially appropriate.

[politerudeness]

Would it? If you insist... [ He laughs a bit but it comes out as very forced; he laughs very, very rarely and it probably really shows. ]

[cramschoolgod]

I don't insist, not at all--

[Sigh. Change the subject, seriously.]

Ah... at any rate. How have you been faring?

[politerudeness]

[ o-oh, if there is anyone who can recognize a subject change he can see one, it's Japan, who puts this technique to frequent use.... which is precisely why he goes along with it!! ]

Ah... I have been doing my best. I hope Sasaki-san has been well.

[cramschoolgod]

Naturally, when do you not do your best? And after all, your best is all you can do, save offering your life in ritual suicide to atone for failures.

[Her tone is, yes, mildly mocking.] I've been well, yes, all things told. I was saved from a grisly fate, at any rate.
