Mamoru Chiba TXT to Ami Mizuno: by the way, um

Mamoru Chiba TXT to Ami Mizuno: i have an important thing to tell you

Mamoru Chiba TXT to Ami Mizuno: <top hat emoji>

TXT from Ami Mizuno: I hope that it's "I have been possessed", because your textiquette is attrocious. 'i'. Hmph. I expect better from you, Mamoru-kun.

Mamoru Chiba TXT to Ami Mizuno: i only bother with that when i'm angry, sorry to say i even use abbreviations and lowercase acronyms

TXT from Ami Mizuno: I'm not sure I can accept that from the man who is 'not' dating my best friend. We might need to have a Discussion about this, later. You're supposed to set an example!

TXT from Ami Mizuno: Also, I may just be giving you grief because it's amusing. What's important?

Mamoru Chiba TXT to Ami Mizuno: UGH FINE. It slows down an otherwise efficient means of commu-- okay.

Mamoru Chiba TXT to Ami Mizuno: Well first, yes, you can drop the 'not'.

TXT from Ami Mizuno: I know.

Mamoru Chiba TXT to Ami Mizuno: I know you know but we're not bothering anymore.

TXT from Ami Mizuno: Luna will be displeased, but I'm glad to hear it. All this skulking about was not good for Usagi's focus.

Mamoru Chiba TXT to Ami Mizuno: Officially. But, er. The important thing has to do with another thing involving Usagi's focus. Also roses.

TXT from Ami Mizuno: ... roses? Don't tell me, you're really Tuxedo Mask.

Mamoru Chiba TXT to Ami Mizuno: Well I was trying not to actually say it in a text message.

TXT from Ami Mizuno: ........ okay I was making a joke. We need to talk.

Mamoru Chiba TXT to Ami Mizuno: Yes. Well. Yes.

TXT from Ami Mizuno: ..... oh my gosh. How did I ...

Mamoru Chiba TXT to Ami Mizuno: Magic.

TXT from Ami Mizuno: But I just ... I was ... I should have ...

Mamoru Chiba TXT to Ami Mizuno: It's one of the reasons I was trying to stress that you shouldn't have worried about Daisuke.

TXT from Ami Mizuno: <grimace emoji> Okay, well, that solves the divide by zero error.

TXT from Ami Mizuno: Let's not talk about Daisuke unless it's ... because of Ascly things. I'm trying to forget how stupid I was.

Mamoru Chiba TXT to Ami Mizuno: I also wasn't lying any of the times I said I wasn't a fighter. I'm still not. I'm just more resilient and harder to actually hurt.

Mamoru Chiba TXT to Ami Mizuno: Sorry.

TXT from Ami Mizuno: No, I get it. I'm a little ticked at you for keeping this a secret. But I also think I get why you did it. You owe me a Coke and a game of Go, wherein I will capture all of your pieces, and we will discuss this until the game is over. After that I'll forgive you.

Mamoru Chiba TXT to Ami Mizuno: I'll tell you all the reasons. And I'll apologize a lot while you're kicking my butt at Go and you're drinking your Coke.

TXT from Ami Mizuno: Oh quit disseminating. You've already given all the apologies I require. I am more interested in understanding implications and justifications.

Mamoru Chiba TXT to Ami Mizuno: Oh good, I'm terrible at apologies. But you'll have your implications and justifications. And I REALLY shouldn't still wander around alone without my henshin; there was an incident I need to fill you all in on, though it's been handled.

TXT from Ami Mizuno: Understood. I need to get going right now; I promised Gull I'd help her with this thing. I suppose I should note that this is dangerous. I should have warned the others. If I don't make it back, swear to me that you will protect her. On your life.

Mamoru Chiba TXT to Ami Mizuno: I swear it. I always have. I'll also be there to meet you when you return.

TXT from Ami Mizuno: I know you have. I just needed you to say it to me. She's the best thing that's ever happened to me. You understand, I know. I'll see you later.

Mamoru Chiba TXT to Sailor Mercury: Good luck. ... TTYL!!!!!!

TXT from Sailor Mercury: ... Ugh, texting.
