[VERTEX] Akane Shinjo: ... sorry for wrecking your concert
[VERTEX] Sheryl Nome: new phone who dis
[VERTEX] Sheryl Nome: I'm joking, of course. What makes you apologize all of a sudden?
[VERTEX] Akane Shinjo: Your songs kinda ended up saving my life?
[VERTEX] Akane Shinjo: I guess you wouldn't know what happened in there
[VERTEX] Sheryl Nome: Hmmm~, so Rikka pulled off the concert.
[VERTEX] Sheryl Nome: I'm glad to hear it. So that's why Tsutsujidai un-disappeared, then?
[VERTEX] Akane Shinjo: No, that was something else. I'm still kinda only half aware of what went down there
[VERTEX] Sheryl Nome: Oh? Well, if you don't really know either... I'm sure I'll hear all about it sooner or later.
[VERTEX] Akane Shinjo: I got turned into a kaiju but it was also kinda like I was inside the kaiju? And I kept wanting to just sink down into it but
[VERTEX] Akane Shinjo: ... Rikka played your new song and then did another one herself, and it kind of gave me something to. idk
[VERTEX] Akane Shinjo: swim back toward? that's not really the right metaphor but it's not really the WRONG metaphor how are you supposed to describe an experience basically no one else has... uuuugh
[VERTEX] Sheryl Nome: o/` That's the power of love~
[VERTEX] Sheryl Nome: I don't really get what you're talking about either, but I'm still glad. Rikka and I put a lot of work into that. If you hadn't appreciated it, I would've been mad!
[VERTEX] Sheryl Nome: So? How are things with you and her now?
[VERTEX] Akane Shinjo: uh
[VERTEX] Akane Shinjo: well
[VERTEX] Sheryl Nome: Weeelllll?
[VERTEX] Akane Shinjo: we're dating and... like I COULD say she totally ruined my lip gloss except it's more like I ruined it on her
[VERTEX] Sheryl Nome: Attagirls <3
[VERTEX] Akane Shinjo: I'm trying really hard not to hang everything about being a better person on her but it's so hard because like. i mean.
[VERTEX] Akane Shinjo: have you SEEN her
[VERTEX] Akane Shinjo: Like I know you have but. oh my ggggoooood.
[VERTEX] Sheryl Nome: So how cute was she during the performance?
[VERTEX] Akane Shinjo: Aauugugh I was hoping somehow you got pics before I did, I couldn't really see stuff because of the being/being inside a kaiju
[VERTEX] Akane Shinjo: thing
[VERTEX] Akane Shinjo: but I want to sooooo so bad.
[VERTEX] Sheryl Nome: Awww
[VERTEX] Sheryl Nome: We've both been deprived!
[VERTEX] Akane Shinjo: oh man I bet Namiko or Alouette would be good for it. if nothing else I can get Alouette's side and rear sensor feeds. do you want pics if I can get them
[VERTEX] Sheryl Nome: Unfortunately, we were only halfway through planning when whatever happened with Tsutsujidai happened. We had the music done and we were working on the choreography, but we hadn't figured out outfits just yet. I was supposed to sing Obelisk myself anyway.
[VERTEX] Sheryl Nome: Absolutely I do!
[VERTEX] Akane Shinjo: great
[VERTEX] Akane Shinjo: God like. I know it wasn't just you and her. A ton of work goes into that kinda thing
[VERTEX] Akane Shinjo: But
[VERTEX] Akane Shinjo: THanks
[VERTEX] Akane Shinjo: *Thanks
[VERTEX] Akane Shinjo: At first I kinda resented you but it was mostly because your songs were a huge mood and it was just like... how dare you? but
[VERTEX] Akane Shinjo: it's nice. for real.
[VERTEX] Sheryl Nome: I wrote Obelisk for you, you know. Rikka helped give me the inspiration for the lyrics by telling me more about you.
[VERTEX] Sheryl Nome: I /hardly ever/ do that kind of service for my fans.
[VERTEX] Sheryl Nome: So you're welcome <3
[VERTEX] Akane Shinjo: Yeah I kind of... I could tell
[VERTEX] Akane Shinjo: Like Pink Monsoon always kinda hit for me but mostly in like a screwed up way, I was gonna use it to try to uh
[VERTEX] Akane Shinjo: Disarm
[VERTEX] Akane Shinjo: Gridman
[VERTEX] Akane Shinjo: But that one... jeez, kinda on the nose...
[VERTEX] Sheryl Nome: Oh?
[VERTEX] Akane Shinjo: uh
[VERTEX] Akane Shinjo: which part
[VERTEX] Sheryl Nome: No, let me guess
[VERTEX] Sheryl Nome: Hmhmhm, if you were mad at me for my songs being a mood, then I'm thinking...
[VERTEX] Sheryl Nome: 'I won't forgive you if you make me realize I'd have been better off alone'?
[VERTEX] Akane Shinjo: ... yeah
[VERTEX] Akane Shinjo: 'Let me influence you deeper and deeper, and then dump me on a rainy day' also kinda. Yeah
[VERTEX] Sheryl Nome: Mmmmm. Well, I knew it definitely wasn't 'Be my boyfriend'
[VERTEX] Akane Shinjo: OK the hair thing and the being old fashioned too maybe actually? Even before all this stuff fjdslkghdfkgh
[VERTEX] Akane Shinjo: even before this stuff like... idk i'm going to sound like one of those weirdos in a period drama or something, or maybe like an old lady from a Lunar Japanese family if I say this stuff
[VERTEX] Akane Shinjo: I kinda vibe with all the SUPER old courting and proposal stuff and I've always been kinda fussy about my hair in particular
[VERTEX] Akane Shinjo: wait
[VERTEX] Akane Shinjo: WHY AM I TELLING YOU THIS
[VERTEX] Akane Shinjo: MUSIC IS AN EVIL TRICK AND THE ZENTRADI WERE RIGHT TO FEAR IT AS A SECRET EARTH WEAPON, *ACTUALLY*
[VERTEX] Sheryl Nome: Because I'm charming and wonderful and you love me, platonically <3
[VERTEX] Akane Shinjo: UUUUUGH
[VERTEX] Sheryl Nome: o/` o/` o/`
[VERTEX] Sheryl Nome: That's cute, though. Actually, I vibe a little with that sort of thing, too.
[VERTEX] Akane Shinjo: i think this means we're now in a murder pact about each other's secrets on this one.
[VERTEX] Akane Shinjo: we'd be so uncool...
[VERTEX] Sheryl Nome: Maybe *you* would be. I'd just bring it back into style. <3
[VERTEX] Akane Shinjo: ... from you? yeah I could see it.
[VERTEX] Sheryl Nome: That's the trick, really. You have to own everything you do.
[VERTEX] Sheryl Nome: (even if it is kind of embarrassing)
[VERTEX] Akane Shinjo: Huh. That's actually good advice
[VERTEX] Akane Shinjo: That's kinda scary though... what if you own something and it sucks
[VERTEX] Sheryl Nome: can't relate
[VERTEX] Sheryl Nome: Kidding~ But you can't worry about that. There's always going to be someone who doesn't like what you do.
[VERTEX] Sheryl Nome: You just have to keep moving forward.
[VERTEX] Akane Shinjo: ... that's still kind of scary. I dunno if I'll ever have that kinda confidence but
[VERTEX] Akane Shinjo: it's probably good advice
[VERTEX] Sheryl Nome: Lucky for you, you're not me. You don't have to do exactly what I do to live your life.
[VERTEX] Akane Shinjo: ... yeah
[VERTEX] Sheryl Nome: And it sounds like you've got a new lease on one, so you'd better not waste it trying to imitate someone else.
[VERTEX] Sheryl Nome: Even if it is someone as gorgeous and talented as me <3
[VERTEX] Akane Shinjo: ... ahaha... it's. funny you should say that but I can't tell you why.
[VERTEX] Akane Shinjo: but thanks.
[VERTEX] Sheryl Nome: Oh, now you have me curious! Is this your evil plot, Akane? Are you trying to make me beg?
[VERTEX] Akane Shinjo: oh god do not hit me with that much expectation
[VERTEX] Sheryl Nome: o/` :3c <3
[VERTEX] Sheryl Nome: You're welcome, though.
[VERTEX] Akane Shinjo: and thanks for believing in her. i'm glad tsutsujidai didn't turn out the way i set it up because the way i would've set it up would've never meant someone like her existing
[VERTEX] Sheryl Nome: She earned it. She's a hard worker and a good girl.
[VERTEX] Akane Shinjo: oh man that's. mm. actually
[VERTEX] Akane Shinjo: (long silence)
[VERTEX] Akane Shinjo: could you call her something else than the second thing instead. sorry. sorry
[VERTEX] Sheryl Nome: ? sure okay
[VERTEX] Sheryl Nome: Is 'good person' fine?
[VERTEX] Akane Shinjo: yeah
[VERTEX] Akane Shinjo: it's mostly
[VERTEX] Akane Shinjo: ... ok is it ok if i tell you something kind of screwed up.
[VERTEX] Sheryl Nome: (after a minute to think about it) Go ahead.
[VERTEX] Akane Shinjo: so like... there was this time rikka and i were on the bus and i asked her to kill me and she said she couldn't, so i said like... she was less of a hero and more of a good girl or something
[VERTEX] Akane Shinjo: because in my head like. that's weird horny stuff. you say that when a girl is kind of letting you be degrading or something not
[VERTEX] Sheryl Nome: oh.
[VERTEX] Sheryl Nome: Yeah, that's a thing too, now that you bring it up
[VERTEX] Akane Shinjo: sorry that's. way too much i shouldn't have brought it up
[VERTEX] Sheryl Nome: I told you it was OK, didn't I? I'm not that fragile.
[VERTEX] Akane Shinjo: OK yeah I guess. yeah. sorry
[VERTEX] Sheryl Nome: It's no big deal. I just wasn't expecting that from you. But if you were going to try to seduce someone with one of my songs, I really should've!
[VERTEX] Akane Shinjo: ... ahahaha, I guess that's true
[VERTEX] Akane Shinjo: But yeah I... was pretty horrible to her that whole conversation and I guess it just. Yeah
[VERTEX] Sheryl Nome: That's all in the past. Just do better now.
[VERTEX] Akane Shinjo: yeah. Time only goes one way
[VERTEX] Sheryl Nome: Exactly.
[VERTEX] Sheryl Nome: You've gotten rid of that creep, right? I know he's not the mayor of Tsutsujidai but I thought for the longest time he was and I can't un-think of him like that
[VERTEX] Akane Shinjo: Not exactly but
[VERTEX] Akane Shinjo: He's not with me anymore
[VERTEX] Akane Shinjo: He's still out there and I'm actually kinda scared about it
[VERTEX] Akane Shinjo: also lmfao oh my god. can you imagine
[VERTEX] Akane Shinjo: i'm imagining him sitting at a desk signing crap
[VERTEX] Sheryl Nome: massive mood, I'd be scared too. And I know, right?? Putting on that fake nice voice to snow people over about his crap!
[VERTEX] Sheryl Nome: Did he tell you that he just showed up in my apartment one day?
[VERTEX] Sheryl Nome: I was ready to break a lamp over his stupid flaming head, he scared the hell out of me
[VERTEX] Akane Shinjo: Wait WHAT? WHY
[VERTEX] Sheryl Nome: I knew he wouldn't tell you!! I KNEW IT. He said a lot of nonsense; I don't really know what he wanted, not for sure. Grace and I figured he thought my music might be a threat because of what Nidaime said about music having a special power in Tsutsujidai, so he was trying to intimidate me into staying away.
[VERTEX] Sheryl Nome: But nobody pushes the Galactic Fairy around!
[VERTEX] Akane Shinjo: Wow... you're really strong.
[VERTEX] Sheryl Nome: And super hot to boot <3
[VERTEX] Akane Shinjo: ... okay yeah that's also true 
[VERTEX] Sheryl Nome: Hahahahaha
[VERTEX] Sheryl Nome: He really was scary, though. He talked and acted really nice, but there was just... *something* there that made my skin crawl. I've met his type in the entertainment industry a lot, the kind that acts nice but always has an angle, but at least none of them could literally just show up out of nowhere in my personal space.
[VERTEX] Sheryl Nome: Are you going to be okay? Are you somewhere safe?
[VERTEX] Akane Shinjo: Yeah, I'm... on Orbit Base. They have gravity sensors or something so they know if the place suddenly has more mass in it.
[VERTEX] Sheryl Nome: Good. That sounds reassuring.
[VERTEX] Akane Shinjo: I'm guessing you're pretty busy but... it was nice to talk for a bit 
[VERTEX] Akane Shinjo: the saying thank you and i'm sorry stuff is. harder than i thought. but i did it once, for my little brother. i can keep doing it.
[VERTEX] Sheryl Nome: Of course you can. You made it this far, didn't you?
[VERTEX] Sheryl Nome: But yeah, I have an appointment to get to in the next couple minutes so I should go. Lucky you, you caught me at a rare moment.
[VERTEX] Sheryl Nome: Oh, and apology accepted. Don't do it again!
[VERTEX] Akane Shinjo: I'll do my best. Good luck
[VERTEX] Sheryl Nome: I *fully* intend on coming back for another concert, after all.
[VERTEX] Sheryl Nome: Later~
