[doreimi]

Wait, Koichi? OUR Koichi??? The same one we know??

[penpoint]

Yes. Our Koichi, from what I was able to read. The other one I met has a lot of parts to his.

[doreimi]

A lot of parts...and they're all numbered, right? Like Number Three, and Number Five, and all that?

1/2

[penpoint]

Yes. He thinks Four is bad luck. I haven't met any others that I know of, at least. I wouldn't be surprised if there's more, though.

this comes after a few moments

[penpoint]

Stay safe, Reimi. I don't want anything to happen to you again.

[doreimi]

[That's really pretty sweet of him, actually. It would've been perfect, except for how he threw in that last bit, "again".]

That's exactly why I'm telling you! I don't want anything bad to happen to you, either.

There are other people like me here, you know. Who've...died. So if Stand users can come here, and people who've died can come here, then that means...

[Guess who's perfectly capable of coming here, and enjoying a fresh chance at a quiet peaceful life.]

[penpoint]

Yeah. I've thought about what I'd do if he showed up. I don't know if he'd have a good time here.

[ In fact, Rohan knows he won't. ]


And we know who he is and what he's done. And he won't get the chance to do what he did.

[doreimi]

Do you think the other people here would believe us? Since he puts on such a good act, and makes sure not to leave any traces that could lead back to him...

It'd be our word against his, right?

[penpoint]

I'm not sure what they think we'd gain from lying about someone being a serial killer. But yeah, until he does something it's our word against his. Let's just hope they trust us.

[doreimi]

Mm. I guess you're right, people probably would believe us. Maybe I'm just used to not being heard when I try to warn people. Just because it was like that back home, that doesn't mean it'll be like that here too.

[penpoint]

We listened, and they'll listen. Regardless, I won't let him hurt anyone again. Besides, it uses Chroma to use Stands. He'll drain himself if he tries anything.

[doreimi]

...Is THAT how it works...

Huh. Maybe that's why sometimes I can act like a ghost and sometimes I can't. A friend of mine said he saw me turning see-through once, but it hasn't happened since. I wonder if it's because it takes Chroma to do it?

[penpoint]

I used Heaven's Door a lot when I first arrived. I noticed I didn't have much left over without having bought much beyond some food.

It's most likely the same for you.

[ And he hadn't exactly been earning it quickly, either. ]

[doreimi]

What about now? Are you making enough that it's okay?

[penpoint]

Don't worry about it. I'm fine.

[doreimi]

I AM worried about it. It's hard enough as it is to keep a supply around WITHOUT having a Stand, and you being able to use Heaven's Door is really important!

[penpoint]

I didn't trust anyone here. I'm saving it as much as possible for important things. Like keeping safe.

[doreimi]

So what about now? Now you DO trust people here, so you don't have to use it so much...?

[penpoint]

No. I don't trust anyone, still. But I'm going to live with it if I want to use it when it's most important.

[doreimi]

[It takes a while, before this response comes. Like she's written it and deleted it again a few times over, on the fence about whether or not to actually let it follow through.

But in the end, her concern for him outweighs her trepidation about speaking up, and a message dings into his inbox.]

Then at least let me help. It doesn't have to be all the time. But it just takes two people to generate Chroma, right? So let me help keep you safe, and I'll feel better.

[penpoint]

[ He takes a moment, as if it seems like he's pondering the offer, though he knows that he'll accept it with barely a moment's thought. ]

Alright. Since it's you, and I need it to do any good.

[ He retypes this next part. ]

Also tell me if you need anything.

[doreimi]

[It's a good thing this isn't an in-person conversation, so no one hears her audible sigh of relief, or the way she full-body relaxes like a whole weight of tension leaves her in an instant.]

Great! I'm glad. I'm really glad.

As for needing anything...I'm thinking about getting a job, so if they need somebody to vouch for me before they hire me, can I tell them they can ask you? Don't say anything mean about me, okay?

[penpoint]

Definitely use me as a reference. It's not as if I'd have anything mean to say anyway.

[doreimi]

[Well, that's a change of pace, she almost says, except that Rohan's being nice and she's not about to jeopardize that for anything.]

Mm, okay! Then I'll let you know how it goes. :)
