Time baby??

Um, can you explain what a time baby is? It's not an actual baby, right?

[maskreant]

maybe a baby that traverses through time? but seriously, it's time capsule. i meant time capsule.

i think it's better if we don't text until this weird glitch stops.

[fiddlestick]

Ohhh! I didn't know people still made those.

Haha, probably, but that's easier said than done for me. I have some people who'd get worried if I didn't text. [So I'm screwed]

[maskreant]

i thought it would be nice to bring it back.

true... i wonder if this happens if we use instant messaging services instead.

[fiddlestick]

Okay. What's going in it?

Hmm...maybe? We could try.

[maskreant]

some old stuff. letters? trinkets. maybe even CDs before those completely disappear.

all right. message me from your laptop.

[fiddlestick]

Okay. Hold on.

[If Akira is in the house, he can probably the sounds of Elliot getting up and heading to his room- and then numerous rummaging sounds as he tries to figure out he put his laptop among all the different boxes. Was that the sound of a cowbell being knocked over? Probably.

Finally though he'll get a laptop message. ]

You never know, CDs might make a comeback like vinyls did.

[maskreant]

[ They're in the same house and they're just... doing this. ]

do you think we need a turntable?

[fiddlestick]

[Yeah but going to talk to Akira in person means he has to take off his headphones. No thanks]

Yeah!! I've always wanted one!

...Except I spent my whole budget this month on furniture and textbooks. So it should probably wait.

[maskreant]

maybe we can both pitch in money for it.

when we have any, that is... i also just dumped money on textbooks and furniture. i kind of regret buying more cat furniture now.

[ WHY IS THIS PAINFUL ]

[fiddlestick]

More? How much cat furniture did you buy...?

[...Akira you bought furniture for yourself too right.....]

[maskreant]

just two since we have some space for it?

[ HE BOUGHT HIS FURNITURE FIRST, CALM DOWN. ]

[fiddlestick]

[JUST MAKING SURE]

Oh. Two's not so bad...

I guess I could start doing street performing again for money. And maybe look for part-time work too? We do have to pay the rent four ways instead of five this month, that's got me a little nervous...

[Thanks Ryoji for not giving more prior notice before you died went on vacation]

[maskreant]

it shouldn't be too bad divided between the four of us... but if you don't mind doing once in a while gigs, the cat cafe sometimes let performers play as our customers enjoy themselves.

you probably still need to find a part-time job though.

[ WOES OF MOCHIZUKI HOUSE ]

[fiddlestick]

The Cat Cafe? Are there actual cats there?

[He's never played in venues with animals before! Well...other than parks, but it's just pigeons and dogs on leashes]

Yeah, I know. You can make a lot from performing but it's not steady. I'll look for one. There's gotta be something I can do...

[maskreant]

yeah. you should check it out even if you're not performing. discounts and all.

good luck. if you tell me what you're looking for or are good at, i can keep an eye out for you, too.

[fiddlestick]

Really? Thanks! Maybe I'll bring my brother sometime- he's obsessed with cats.

Ahaha.... [Elliot? Be able to name things he's good at? That takes way more self-esteem than he has] ...I wouldn't mind food or something music related, which is also all I'm really good for, haha.

[maskreant]

i won't say no to more customers.

there's bound to be a musical instrument store somewhere... if not, there's probably plenty of jobs for cooks? if they have a practical interview, i'm sure you'll get hired.

[fiddlestick]

[Cool. Now he just hopes he can take his brother without his brother refusing to ever leave]

Haha...unless they ask me to make coffee, anyway.

[maskreant]

[ pretend you have a cat at home, easy. ]

drinks are usually left to someone else, so don't worry about that.

[fiddlestick]

Whew, okay.

I'll keep an eye out. Let me know if you hear anything too. I'd really appreciate it.
