[Hanekoma's grinning as casually as ever, but he looks a little flushed, and are those dark circles under his eyes?

That's definitely a drippy-looking nose. Maybe he shouldn't have been running around in short sleeves and sandals after all.]

Heyyyy! Had fun with your party?

I was just wonderin' if anybody out there's got tea leaves they're willin' ta trade. I prefer green, but I'll take black or herbal if that's what you've got.

[Thoughtful.] I can trade ya fresh eggs, meat, or --

[He turns the camera to display a half-finished tempera mural in black and white covering one wall of his room -- it's a boldly outlined forest of graffiti-style skyscrapers seen from above, dwindling down to tiny streets under a brilliant sky.] --we can work out a trade for some wall art.

[He pauses to stifle a hacking cough.] Speak up quick, just in case goin' out gets tricky again in a day or two!

Either one, really. But our powers are more likely to go over well. And there's nothing wrong in having a back-up plan.

I can agree with that.

[He pauses, coughing into his sleeve, then glances back up at Joshua.] Plan A, bargain for us gettin' out, plan B, bargain for doin' our best to find a way out for them and us in return for gettin' some power back?

Sounds like a good set of plans to me.

[That cough gets a raised eyebrow, though.] Sure you don't want to take the day off?

Well, I wasn't plannin' on headin' out now. Give it a few days an' I'll be back in shape.

I meant from everything else.

[Not that he's offering to do any of it, though.]

Rhyme's makin' dinner.

[He notices that, Josh. Not that it's surprising.]

Oh, good. At least it won't be someone likely to poison us by mistake.

Aw, Neku could probably handle roastin' fish.

Oh, that's what we're having? Are you sure she's up for that task considering how she looks at the rabbits?

[Surely you aren't that cruel, Sanae.]

That's why it's fish an' not bunnies.

[C'mon, Josh, it's not like she's never had roasted fish before. He's not making her gut them or anything.]

Up until she sees how big their eyes are.

[Nope, he's not poking fun at all.]

Hey, if she has trouble, you can lend a hand. Right?

Only if you're willing to help me find a shirt that won't reek of fish.

I can point ya in the direction of the laundry soap.

Or, Neku could help her.

Think he'd manage it without losin' a finger?

He's a smart boy, he'll figure it out.

Always leavin' Phones with the dirty jobs, huh.

It's good for him.

Suuuuure.

It is. It builds character.

And keeps your shirt clean, right?

You know me too well.

[Just laughing at that, Josh.]

Well, have fun talkin' him into it. I'm gonna go make tea an' nap.

Alright. I'm sure if something explodes, you'll wake up.
