[MadameButterflyKnife]

Who are you anyway, green text?

[wingedcatgirl]

eh it sounds like you're not doing it anymore and we don't exactly have anything approaching the amount of detail we'd need to report you, so sure let's move on

my name's Jade btw

Jade Thunderbolt if you're the type into two-word names

we've been having

a really weird past few days

[KungFuCutbug]

jade thunderbolt. strange but i've heard stranger. i'm dr. claire de lune

...also, if you don't mind me asking. who's "we" in this context

[MadameButterflyKnife]

On a scale of one to "being wanted for crimes against humanity", how weird.

[wingedcatgirl]

me and my headmates

well, mostly Le and Isabeau

Achille and Celine are out cold from the shit they pulled the other day

on the scale blue there puts forth i'd call it about a seven

we ain't wanted for a crime, it's the crime-doer who wants us

[MadameButterflyKnife]

Understandable but what the hell did you even do to knock some of you out. Also, the name's Dr. Michi Ito.

[KungFuCutbug]

headmates... oh, so you're one of those "systems" i've heard about. got it

blue is my former colleague dr. michi ito, by the way edit: oh, they beat me to it and i didn't even notice

and... why are you wanted by criminals?

[wingedcatgirl]

we almost figured out the criminal's secret identity, but exposed our own in the process

now he's pissed because he's on the verge of losing for good, and we're the only obvious vulnerable target for him

i say "we" it was mostly just Celine that did that

Achille helped but he wasn't enthused about it, he kinda got roped in after Celine dashed past the point of no return

and they're both worn out now because they're not supposed to be doing stuff that strenuous

I'm the one who's supposed to do stuff, but I was... hibernating, til just a few days ago

Isabeau says I woke up like three hours after they went down

(There is a brief pause between posts.)

okay Isabeau's being a fucking pain right now won't even type on their own whatever

claire you said you're dead, how's the heck that work

[KungFuCutbug]

ghost mcdonald's

[A pause.]

i realize that doesn't explain much and that's exactly the problem

[wingedcatgirl]

ghost

mcdonald's

aight cool good to know that if we screw this up and get our ass killed we'll be able to drown our sorrow in shitty nuggets for all eternity

[MadameButterflyKnife]

I like McDonalds Nuggets.

[wingedcatgirl]

oh so do we but that doesn't change the fact that they're objectively shitty

[KungFuCutbug]

there's also a taco bell down the street

[wingedcatgirl]

well that's

still pretty shitty ngl but more options is better than less even if they're all kinda shit

[MadameButterflyKnife]

You don't go to McDonalds for gorumet. You go for cheap yet satisfying food.


Besides. I've had to deal with someone who unironically glazed a fish. I do care for him, but my point still stands.

[wingedcatgirl]

eh mcfood has always been unsatisfying to us even considering the price point

but like, we're french, what do you expect

[KungFuCutbug]

i'm... technically french but i moved to the us at a pretty young age. like, before i can even remember. so idk if i even count

[wingedcatgirl]

up to you

at the least that's french enough as far as we're concerned

[MadameButterflyKnife]

I am not French at all. Similar situation to Claire; moved here from Japan at a young age.

[KungFuCutbug]

[A message that says something like "funny how that worked out" appears, but is swiftly deleted.]

french enough to you? french enough to me, too. i guess

[wingedcatgirl]

the really weirdest part of what's been going on

is something i can't talk about because it's secret

which sucks because i really fucking want to talk about it

But you shouldn't.

yes thank you Le i know what a secret is

[MadameButterflyKnife]

Huh. Apparently some people here are capable of showing self restraint about their information.

[wingedcatgirl]

It helps that Jade has very recently experienced the consequences of this kind of information getting out.

too be fair Celine didn't intend Shadow Moth to learn our identity

No but it still happened and now we're homeless

temporarily!

We hope.

[KungFuCutbug]

shadow moth. is that the criminal coming after you, or

[wingedcatgirl]

yeah

he probably calls himself something else now

supervillain logic, long story
