[he does not do the emoji thing but he has taken to sending pictures of the batcats that live on their roof. so ritsu gets a picture of a puffed up little black cat in a big yawn, tiny bat wings unfurled.]
[ time passes: he brings home cheese curry, and gives Shigeo the robot too. he's often out and about, socializing, and Mob has a job so the text chain keeps them in touch, just stuff like "home soon" and "kimchi?". ]
[mob constantly tries to give him money, if allowed- well, here it's more bloodstones and shards of blood stones, or whatever useful thing to barter. just left at ritsu's room, regardless of if he thinks ritsu will accept or not.
he's going for a run at the moment, wheezing his way down one of the streets. stopping to check his messages and blinking when he sees it, leaning against one of the crumbling walls nearby.]
the ones that link people? i saw people talking about that too
i just don't want to put you in any trouble before knowing it's okay
[or maybe he can't stomach the idea of hurting ritsu again, though it's buried deep enough he's not even particularly aware. sometimes your powers/emotions are so jumbled and tied to sibling related trauma it's impossible to untangle it.]

[ it is not 👍 really, but he doesn't want to argue about it. ]
how's work?
no subject
