[When the recording starts the bracelet's camera is focused on some kind of aquarium. It isn't completely filled with water and it has quite a few rocks and logs, some of which stick out above the water. On first glance the tank looks empty, but if one looks close they can see a little red claw crab sitting under a log inside.]

Does anyone know what kinds of things crabs do for fun? I'm keeping an eye on this guy for someone else, and I know I've got his food and home down but it looks kind of boring in there. Especially since he's all alone! Do they even make toys for crabs? He looks like he might break stuff with those claws....

Oh! And what kind of information do I need to give out to get a licence? I've never gotten one of these things before, so I'm not sure if I need to bring something or... what, really.

[She grins at him, shrugging a tiny bit.]

It's worth it. You're a good teacher.

[deadcenter]

Much to my surprise, you're a good student.

[he's just teasing a bit.]

[occulthymns]

[She giggles lightly.]

Hey, when I'm properly motivated I'm a great student!

[deadcenter]

That's what I like to hear.

Don't give up- even if they knock you down tell 'em to go screw themselves and just try harder. [it's basically how he got through life.]

[occulthymns]

I will! I didn't give up back home, and I'm definitely not going to here.

[deadcenter]

That's the spirit! Keep that up and you'll go far kid.

[occulthymns]

Except I'm not a kid! I'm a completely capable adult!

[deadcenter]

Maybe in another five years.

[occulthymns]

No, right now! I've practically been on my own for two years!

[deadcenter]

You're gonna have to prove to me you're an adult before I believe it. Didn't I say I was eighteen when I thought I knew everything too?

[then his friends died.]

[occulthymns]

.... [That shuts her up pretty quick. She doesn't sound nearly as fervent.]

It's a different situation....

[deadcenter]

[Ah well... he's been trying to get it through to her that she's just not an adult yet- but looks like she's way too stubborn. He rolls his eye and brings that tea up to his mouth, sipping it again.]

You sure this isn't some kind of truth potion? You got me to talk about my police friends, only one other person was able to do that.

[occulthymns]

[She blinks at him.]

It doesn't, I don't have any plants that can do that yet.

[Yet.]

[deadcenter]

Heh, guess you're just good at gettin' people to talk.

[not really, he wouldn't tell anyone unless he wanted to but.... refuses to admit it!!]

[occulthymns]

[She chuckles, even though she knows she isn't that persuasive.]

And if I can make a truth potion I'm going to get even better!

[deadcenter]

...Yeah.

This is why women are scary.

[occulthymns]

Don't worry, I won't experiment on you. [Isn't she nice?]

[deadcenter]

Y...you better not! Seriously! I'll fuck you right up!

[occulthymns]

[Oh my god Senji.... she just starts laughing.]

Then you should thank Kaz! He's going to be gracious and test out my potions so I don't have to test them on other people.~

[Of course, Kaz doesn't know it yet, but that's a minor detail.]

[deadcenter]

Oh? That guy? Sounds good to me, I could care less.

[he's gonna be in for a surprise...]

[occulthymns]

[Yes good answer! Even though it would piss Kaz off, she grins.]

Who knows, maybe I'll even be able to come up with an endurance potion.

[deadcenter]

Heh, I'll only try it after you've perfected it.

[occulthymns]

If that's the case then I'd have to charge you.

[deadcenter]

Cheh! Come on, would you really do that?

[occulthymns]

Of course! I need to be rewarded for my hard work.
