If you'd like to ask the Transmitter something over the phone, go right ahead! The Transmitter will answer the phone as soon as she's available. Leaving messages is impossible, given how old these phones are, but you should be able to reach her at almost all hours.

[heritrix]

Are you sure that's not the addiction talking.

[HOW CAN RIN TRUST AGAIN]

[transmittable]

Hey, I'm no desperate addict, I like simple things. ...and like, Mario Kart or super awesome beat 'em ups or fighting games, but- nothing that makes it sound like you're converting to a new religion.

[heritrix]

You say that, but it sounds like you're speaking tongues.

[Oh well.]

Anyways, you said the computers here don't have them, so there's no point to it.

[...but does that mean they do have something on them? Hmm. They must if the Risen can get them to work, right?]

[transmittable]

Wha- you've never heard of- ohh, can't be helped.

[ The Transmitter sighs. ]

...No more promising on things I can't deliver, but if I could get you guys some more video games? I so would, then you'd see.

[heritrix]

I guess we'll never know~!

[Oh, come on, Rin. Try new things.]

Oh, but on the note of things you can or can't deliver, that reminds me. These aren't for me, but there are a few items I think some people here could use. If you can deliver on them, that's fantastic, but if you can't it's not a problem either.

[Is it okay if she asks?]

[transmittable]

Oh, uh- sure. What're you asking about?

[heritrix]

Nozomi could use some massage oils. She was offering to work on people's backs the other day with nothing but her bare hands or shampoo, if you can believe it, and I could think of better uses for the olive oil in the kitchen.

The other item I wanted to ask about is for Lovecraft. I don't know if you're aware, but he's predisposed to diving into the pool and hanging out at the bottom, clothes and all? It's freaky to watch, but also cool.

[Because he is definitely a Servant. And okay barring that, at least not human she's sure.]

I think he feels more comfortable down there, but he'll get a nasty amount of chlorine in his eyes if he keeps that up. Can goggles be arranged?

[transmittable]

While both of those are...interesting and inspiring choices, I can say right now they're gonna be a no. Like...99% sure. They're the kind of things that'll be called "frivolous."

...Tell him to, uh. Maybe someone can make a blindfold...?

[heritrix]

Yeah, that's what I thought.

[She doesn't sound disappointed, even if it is disappointing.]

It's fine. I'll see what I can come up with on my own.

[She doesn't have a lot of plans for this week, but it's only Monday. Hahaha...]

Anyways, I've kept you away for a while, huh. This has been fun, though. Surprisingly.

[transmittable]

You'll think of something. You're a resourceful girl.

[ But, ah... ]

It has been. ...Feel free to call again, if you want.

[heritrix]

I think I will.

[And she means that. It might be some time before they can have a nice chat like this again, and Rin has to keep in mind the Transmitter is still a potential enemy, but she thinks she likes her.]

But for now, I'll let you get back to someone a little more Amiable.

[Eh, eh? Had to get that last shot in.]

[transmittable]

[ Oh, that one wasn't expected! The Transmitter sputters and gasps and...huffs, as if she can't find anything to really say. ]

G- goodbye, Courageous!

[heritrix]

[/CACKLING TBH]

Goodbye, Transmitter~

[And still laughing, sounding all too amused, she hangs up.]
