Plundering
[᪥] Well, that was fun! It's been ages since I've had some time to relax like that. Though, I don't know what I expected, but finding actual cocaine in a shipwreck wasn't it.
[𓋇] That one was a surprise for me too. And... it's good that you made sure it was ruined before you left. Fuck whoever was involved in that.
[᪥] Yeah, agreed.
Honestly, my first thought when I saw it was about Jritz - that is, him being a goober like always and potentially deciding to try it out 'for science' and likely either going off the rails or flat-out dying immediately. I refused to risk that happening.
[𓋇] That's why you didn't tell him.
[᪥] Yes.
[𓋇] I see.
[᪥] We did get a ton of cash from the haul anyway, once I got that safe cracked open. No need to deal in any... poisons.
[𓋇] I find it pretty endearing how quickly you took to the role of an older sister. It's cute.
[᪥] Yeah, well... Yeah. Gotta look out for the little guy, y'know. I guess I've always wanted something like this.
[𓋇] Your wrangling of him during your little mission to get both of your IDs and stuff made 'legal' was amusing too.
[᪥] Hah, yeah. It's almost like he does it on purpose sometimes just to poke fun at me.
[𓋇] I wouldn't be surprised.
So, and what are you doing right now?
[᪥] Just... thinking. About the fact that we had mamá y papá drop off my transponder. I know that it was the correct choice to make - it was the final real clue that connected June Sandoval to Juvia Felsa, after all - but it also means that we can no longer communicate at all, even secretly. I miss them.
[𓋇] Ah. I'm sure they miss you just as much, June- Juvia? Juvie? ...Can't believe we've been rolling with just 'you's this whole time.
[᪥] Heh. Juvie's a funny one.
[𓋇] Juvie it is. But yeah, my point is that I guarantee you they understand why you had them do it. Gabriel especially. What you did was make them safe.
[᪥] I suppose. Doesn't mean I have to like it.
[𓋇] It doesn't, I agree. But there's nothing else we can really do about it without disrupting that newly-made safety of theirs. Maybe in the future, but not now.
...Care to come over instead, sweetheart? I can take your mind off things.
[᪥] Tempted, Thia, tempted... Fine, I'll be right there.
[𓋇] Wonderful. I can't wait.
