[ we will, right?

he snickers, dipping his head sheepishly. ]

Yeah, that's right. I was pretty difficult back then. [ three whole years ago. ] Understanding's right. How the units work, what their personalities are like, all that's important. You and Penny are a pretty good example, actually. You guys work well together.

[outdistanced]

[ definitely. ]

You still have your moments. [ teasing. ] But you just said some of them don't know about Cray. How could they make out personalities even when they're just cards?

[ glances over at penny where she's settled back in with his chao. ]

Didn't really have much of a choice, but I think she'd still prefer Iris.

Don't think you actually mind them, though. [ heh ] Ah, well, the "storyline" of what happens on Cray is still published...? Like in articles and novels to support the game. There's a family that's been monitoring the link for a long time, so I guess they supply the information to whoever from the Association is aware of stuff, and it's filtered to be fictionalised.

[ probably! he met a tatsunagi One Time and didn't ask. ]

...tell me about him? I've gotten a sense about him from some things, but you haven't said much directly.

Oh. So it's like that Titanic movie? Something real made into a story. Though I guess most of your world wouldn't know that's what it is...

[ keeping track of it all sounds like a nightmare all on its own. how the hell does chrono do it?

...hmmm. this question just kind of makes him sink a little more to the floor. ]

Well, he's an artist, obviously. And way too curious for his own good. That book on demiflora I have - we weren't supposed to read stuff like that, but somehow Iris found a copy of it when we were kids to learn about our powers and try new things with them.

[ back when i couldn't even open a portal. ]

The rules never stopped him from using his powers, either, and he got away with it because Madam is his mother. He was always so stubborn about it, too. [ huffs. that little idiot. ] It's probably how he made Penny. Almost every time I've seen him, he's been working on some new invention in his sketchbook - the last thing he did was make those boots he used to win this year's race.
