im not really sure what they are... i dont know what else they could be besides human
but youre right. i dont think all the weird stuff started happening with us. they seem to know when to leave and how to avoid certain things... maybe we could learn from them

ok... ill remember that

[He's used to being suspicious of nearly everyone. It takes a lot of thought and effort to mentally deconstruct that tendency.]

thats the safest thing to do i think... im not sure if theyre going to attack first, given how theyve been acting
if both of us keep an eye on her though it should be fine
yeah... right. teamwork

[if they all made sure they didn't do stupid shit, they'd get through this fine, right?]

[prudentiam]

exactly. teamwork. [granted, shinichi himself is only learning to not go Lone Ranger all the time---in part because there's no Migi to complicate things---but he finds...it's not so bad to rely on others. that, maybe, he should've come clean from the very beginning, if only to those close to him back home. but that's for whenever Migi becomes a full part of hin again. until then...

...he'll enjoy the company before he has to put some serious thought into things. as for his own paranoid tendencies... well, that's simply par for the course. he has to be alert.] we may not always be physically around each other all the time, but at least we know we're each a call away should something happen to any of us. don't worry, keisuke.

we'll get through this together. all three of us. i'll catch you later.

[Teamwork. It was a whole lot better than being totally reliant on someone... rather, everyone working together. It almost seemed too idealized—as if Keisuke was too used to people only looking out for themselves in his own world that it seemed outlandish.

They'd all work towards it. It was vaguely hopeful, and he accepts that.]

okay, shinichi...
i'll see you
