Had an x-ray done today. Guess what they found? It was you, safely tucked away in my heart! They said my heart is fine with a friend like you in it. Send this to all the people you love and care for, if you get 5 back no one will break your heart. Xx

Oh Zara, I don't understand this world at all!!

[don't mind her distress]

[ good thing he knows what an x-ray is from working at the hospital... but Zara is a grandpa who doesn't know what chain mail is, so he's touched. ]

That was very sweet of you, Natalia. Though slightly threatening.

I had told Yang the exact same thing and she dismissed my concerns! Oh Zara, I'm sure it was meant to be kind but now I'm utterly distressed.

What might happen to my heart if I don't complete the task?

[sewayaku]

Probably nothing. It sounds like a silly superstition, nothing more.

[ ... then again. After a minute, another text comes through. ]

You said Yang sent it to you?

Actually Rock sent it to me - Rock Lee is his full name if you are familiar with him. He was very earnest about it. I merely sent it to Yang afterward. She's far more familiar with this technology business.

I see. If Yang wasn't concerned, then it's likely nothing to be worried about.

Who is this Rock Lee fellow?

I suppose you're right. Yang does have a fair sense of judgment.

Rock Lee is a ninja that I have become acquainted with. Though he did have to inform me what a ninja is first. Apparently they are very skilled in many types of combat!

[ thank you, yang, for indirectly saving these two high fantasy doofuses from running around in circles ]

I've not heard of ninjas, either. Is he a trustworthy sort?

text;

[poised]

Incredibly so. He is almost so earnest that it's blinding.

[sewayaku]

In that case, I sincerely doubt you've got anything to worry about. If it came from CERES, that would be another matter.

Good point indeed. I do wonder where the message originally came from regardless. Though I suppose with a widespread type of system like this, it'd be difficult to find out.

[sewayaku]

You don't think that he's the one who came up with it?

text;

[poised]

Despite being a ninja, I do not believe that man capable of anything that could even remotely sound like a threat.

[ well that's....... interesting. ]

Then he's certainly chosen an interesting profession.
