I need to get my hair dyed. Does anyone know a good place?

[Someone has chosen not to use the video function because his brown roots are actually starting to be pretty noticeable. Whoops.]Also, what the hell was that thing that was tearing through the city the other day? I thought the monsters were only supposed to come out at night

If you find a good place, could you let me know? [ She touches her own short locks, even if he can't see it. ] I'll probably need to do the same in a month or two, myself...

Or you could always get someone to dye it for you! You could buy a kit from a store.

voice; i just realized how surreal it is to see him without shades. /eyes that icon

[topslug]

It's not that hard, if you look for it. There are people here who've definitely got their hearts in the right place. [ LIKE, YOU KNOW, SHIZUO. ]

voice; YEAH it takes some getting used to.

[goesberserk]

Yeah, that's true. There are some good people here.

Anyway, maybe I'll take you up on that offer sometime. [Yes, Shizuo is jumping back to an earlier topic without any warning.]

voice; he looks like a grown up kida could be. which is a horrifying thought.

[topslug]

All right. Just let me know if you need me-- you know where you can reach me, right? [ He does have her NV number. ]

voice; fdjafildja oh my god

[goesberserk]

Yeah, I got it.

voice; CANNOT UNSEE

[topslug]

[ Pause, and then impulsively: ]

Heiwajima-san--

You're really a much nicer person than you make yourself look, aren't you? [ She sounds pretty thoughtful about it, though she's pleased. ]

[goesberserk]

... Ehh? Not really. I mean... the only way I try to look intimidating is so people don't try to pick fights.

voice;

[topslug]

[ But people don't normally come up and just pick a fight with someone... do they? ]

But in this place, trying to look intimidating is almost like you're challenging people, isn't it...?

voice;

[goesberserk]

... You think so?

voice; wow making this post felt absurdly meta

[topslug]

I don't think so myself, but... it's one of those things that always comes up in anime and stuff, right?

[ She tries to imitate a rough, brusque yakuza's voice-- though she's only slightly successful, she does a rather good impression of one. It helps that she actually knows one. ]

"Hey! You! What are you lookin' at me for, huh? You wanna start a fight?"

voice; AHAH WOW I can see why

[goesberserk]

[That is a pretty good impression, and a bit too similar to things that Shizuo has heard in the past. His jaw is tensed and his tone somewhat tight as he replies.]

Yeah, except I never look at people the wrong way in the first place, but they still tried to fight with me.

voice;

[topslug]

[ She catches that shift in tone, and it makes her wonder what exactly it is that Shizuo's been through. It seems like a sore spot... ]

I don't think it's your fault. People like that are always looking for a reason to make trouble... probably because they're insecure themselves.

voice;

[goesberserk]

... You're probably right. Doesn't make it any less annoying, though.

voice;

[topslug]

Just how often do people pick fights with you, anyway?

voice; totally random but I love that you have inside out lyrics for her keywords

[goesberserk]

Not as much anymore, but back in high school it was pretty much every day.

voice; lmao, thank you <3 i was listening to it when i was writing her app, so... it fit?

[topslug]

[ That's enough to make her sputter in indignation. ]

That's awful!
