[Tenth] - I Have Learned

[Over the phone, this is backdated to yesterday evening, after Kallen's droning.]

My… my hand. They took my hand.

It can't… there's--there's no way…

The Guren. I can't--can't be a pilot like this…

Dammit. I still--

I still… dammit, dammit…

They took your what?

[radiant_will]

My hand. The left one.

[savethedata]

Okay... Why?

[radiant_will]

Because I was an idiot. I went down to the party leader's house and tried to break a few windows.

[k1_sauce]

They...

They did what?

[radiant_will]

They droned me for awhile. When I came to, my left hand was gone.

They've offered me extra rations for what they're calling my "disability." Bastards.

[fuelefficient]

...I will modify whatever machine you pilot to work with one hand.

1/2

[radiant_will]

Japan… thank you.

2/2

[radiant_will]

Wh-who knows if it'll ever end up here, though, you know?

[fuelefficient]

When things return to normal, we can find out.

[kleinefurstin]

... I'm sorry.

[radiant_will]

That's okay. It's my own stupid fault.

[assuming in person or whatevs]

[kleinefurstin]

Regardless. It's not something we can handle right now, but in a week...

[yah, sure]

[radiant_will]

You think this will be over by then?

[best_papa_evar]

Ah... you, too?

[radiant_will]

What?

They took your hand, too?

[best_papa_evar]

Ahaha, yep. I punched one of my bosses at the factory in the face and left.

They weren't too pleased.

[radiant_will]

No kidding.

You, uh… think they'll come back eventually?
