Who: Allen Walker
Broadcast: Text
Action: Iskaulit Gym
When: 2/6, late at night

[Well Allen's sure in a piss-poor mood tonight, if his late night texts have anything to say about it. Usually he's good at not letting departures get too under his skin. But losing a friend and someone from home in one go? Is a bit much.]

Kanda's gone. I'm sorry if you met him.

[Does that mean he's sorry that Kanda's gone from your life, or just a general apology for ever meeting the guy in the first place? Who knows.]

Also sorry to ask, but does anyone have anything that'd work on fixing tears on a punching bag?

[.......He a little got mad ok.]

[Text just feels too impersonal even if that was maybe what Allen was going for. It never got to the point of catching on in her world and the prison didn't have it, and it's not something she's particularly tried to adapt to in the fleet. She likes having the vocal inflections and microexpressions to read in a conversation. She does still go voice instead of trying to get him on screen though.]

I'm so sorry, Allen.

[There's a pause. The reason he did text was exactly to keep it impersonal. To keep it businesslike. Allen was guarded with his emotions, especially complex ones. And the feelings around Kanda were extremely complex.

He'll finally speak though. When he does, his voice sounds a little off- older, actually]

Thank you. Hopefully he's safe where he is.

[voice]

[passingthrough]

I hope so. I'm all in favor of your world being as safe as possible. Is there anything I can do for you? Send over some food?

[voice]

[save_the_souls]

[Yeah he's thinking more that he hopes Kanda is shoved somewhere on the Marsiva where he can't make anymore dumbass decisions without Allen's knowledge. BUT SURE. THAT ANSWER WORKS TOO]

No, that's all right. Crowley's going to get me some food once I finish here. [Good old uncle]

[voice]

[passingthrough]

Good. [She wants to do more, but she doesn't want to be something else Allen has to deal with right now so she can feel better either.]

Did anyone else have punching bag tips? I can take a look if not.

[voice]

[save_the_souls]

Sewing and tape, mostly. Alphonse thinks he can use alchemy to restore it.

Better than anything I can do. I'd probably end up taping myself to the bag. [It's said as a half-joke. Arts and Crafts are definitely Not his strong suit]

[voice]

[passingthrough]

Yeah, the alchemy stuff is pretty impressive. I'm sure he's got it covered. It'd be nice if everything was that easy to put back together.

[voice]

[save_the_souls]

Mm, I know. We could've saved a fortune on property damage if I had known him before.

[Especially with Lavi...yikes]

I'm sorry though. I'm sure you knew Kanda too.

[voice]

[passingthrough]

Thanks. I did, but I'd only really talked with him once here, so it's not really the same.

[voice]

[save_the_souls]

Hmph. That sounds like Kanda. Never really social.

[voice]

[passingthrough]

It was harder to miss him in the prison. It was just a smaller place. It's pretty easy to stay hidden in the fleet if you want to especially since I don't just stow away on ships whenever I want. [Except the Tourist.]

[voice]

[save_the_souls]

Ah, that's true enough. I've been here two years and I don't think I've visited half the ships in the fleet.

[voice]

[passingthrough]

Mm, I haven't been here that long, but it is just a handful I've seen. There was nothing self sufficient about the apartments at the prison. Eventually you had to go out. [Not that any of this is Kanda related at this point but maybe a distraction?]
