Reverse Tarot - shinjiro-aragaki

Pardon! I know this is a bit sudden but, you're alright? You said a friend took you in?

Yeah, Aki found me and let me stay with him

9:36 PM

Thanks for the concern I guess

Well, of course! We don't know each other well, yet, but I can't just ignore someone who might be in trouble. What sort of person could live like that. . .

The others seemed happy enough accusing me of lying

That doesn't really make sense, either. . .

9:41 PM

What would you get out of lying?

Exactly my damn point

I'm glad you're safe though! Too many people are on the streets for no reason. . .

Tch dont I know it

Have you been able to go clothes shopping or get new bedding? I have to assume you woke up with nothing. . .

9:47 PM

Ah!

9:47 PM

I'm sorry!

9:47 PM

That was a bit forward. . .

Aki got me sorted. Either way Ive lived with worse

That's good to hear. Are you having anything special for dinner?

Honestly, he'll probably talk me into beef bowls again

With vegetables, I hope?

Aki, eating vegetables?

Ah. A picky eater.

9:56 PM

I know exactly what you mean. . .

9:56 PM

I have a few recipies that could help, if you'd like!

He's refused anything healthy since we were kids

Oh, I know someone exactly like that!

10:00 PM

They refuse to eat anything healthy unless I manage to hide it.

I gave up on hiding vegetables, he was always too good at finding them

Here, try this.

Gooey Black Bean Brownies (gluten-free, super moist)

These gluten-free Black Bean Brownies are a decadent, fudgey dessert (and no one will ever guess they're packed with fiber-filled black beans!)

10:03 PM

They never suspect the dessert. (๑´v`๑❁)

That might just work. Hell, even I'd eat that

Western foods are very good at this sort of thing! I have more if you ever need it!

10:07 PM

I also recommend dark chocolate for the chips! (edited)

10:07 PM

It makes it a little smoother. (edited)

Its been a long time since I made desserts

Now is as good a time as any to start up again!

10:09 PM

Plus, I'd love to see how it goes!

I'll see if Aki can get the ingredients next time he goes shopping

Make sure to ask for several things so he doesn't suspect you!

I usually give him a pretty long list, dont worry

I look forward to your results!

I made him raisin cookies once, you should have seen his face when he realised halfway through one

Isn't it invigorating?

It was worth him shouting at me

I think the last time I was called. . . .

10:23 PM

Criminal Scum!

10:23 PM

It was very funny.

Sounds a bit much just for some vegetables (edited)

Oh, she has a penchant for the dramatic.

10:31 PM

Please picture a young woman on the floor, saying this during her 'death throes'.

10:31 PM

It was very silly.

Wow, that's even worse than Aki

10:38 PM

Never thought I'd see the day

10:39 PM

Actually I guess I did die before I heard about that so I was kinda right

Well now you can check it off your bucket list!

How does a bucket list work if you're already dead?

Hmmm. . .

10:40 PM

Then maybe a reincarnation list!

10:41 PM

You've got another chance so, why not use it to find the things you never thought you'd find!

Shit to do before I die again

It's a good idea, don't you think?

I guess so

Perhaps for the first thing you could get your friend to willingly eat vegetable?

I think a few of my bucket list items would involve Aki

Then, if you'll forgive me being forward again, I think you should do them!

10:46 PM

Wouldn't you rather have done them than regret having never tried?

I dont think they'll be that easy

You won't know until you ask, right?

Heh, can't believe a kid is giving me this kinda advice. You'd think I'd have shit together by this age

10:50 PM

Actually I'm not sure I saw myself living to this age, probably explains some things

10:51 PM

It's so weird waking up and suddenly being 8 years older

Well, wisdom comes from all places, regardless of age!

I guess death forgot to give me wisdom

10:55 PM

How old are you really?

Can you keep a secret?

10:58 PM

I'm actually 22.

Not that young then

11:00 PM

Older than I was

Well, everyone thinks I'm older than that! It concerning how quickly Hanamura-chan believed that. . .

You write like you're older

I'm working on it, currently.

11:13 PM

I'm afraid etiquette has been a part of my life for. . .as long as I can remember.

11:14 PM

I have a few friends teaching me the proper use of slang.

11:14 PM

I'm afraid I'm not terribly skilled at it yet. . .

Didn't say it was a bad thing, just be you

You're right.

11:19 PM

Still, it would be nice to be able to speak with my peers more easily. . .

I guess I never cared much about fitting in

Well, it's good to find somewhere you belong. There's nothing quite like it. But, if it's important to my friends, then it's important to me.

Good evening, Aragaki-san!

6:38 PM

How did the brownies go?

This is a very elaborate prank you're pulling.

I hope you're ready to have your bluff called. (edited)

6:38 PM

I'll even allow you to pick the meeting place.

What fuckin prank

6:39 PM

Who the fuck pretends to be some dead guy out of nowhere

That's exactly what I want to know.

6:42 PM

I want to see what kind of fool pretends to be someone dear to me so brazenly.

6:42 PM

This is quite the farce, how long have you been planning this?

Dear to you?

Don't pretend you don't know.

6:44 PM

Though this does mean we'll have to do some weeding.

6:44 PM

After all, there are very few among my people who knew of my involvement with this app.

6:45 PM

If you'd like to out your source now, I'm sure your punishment will be. . .lessened.

Fuck, you really are someone I knew aren't you

Don't pretend to be him! Don't think just because it's been ten years, I'll let this disrespect pass!

Oh fuck

Show yourself, otherwise I'll know you're an imposter and I will find you!

If you are who I think you are I wouldn't put it past you

6:48 PM

Fine

6:48 PM

My fucking life is on the line either way

Pick your meeting place.

That alley.

Fine. Let's see if you have the guts to actually show up.

Ain't like I have a choice
