[ Voice | Open ]

[of_the_highest_caliber]

«Hello.»
[ Some may recognize that synthetic, female voice from somewhere; especially when coupled with her rather unique manner of speaking. Subaru is asleep, exhausted from her day's training, and Mach Caliber has commandeered part of the vine for herself at this hour in the late evening. ]
«I wish to forward my thanks to those who guided me after the accident. Subaru's safety remained because of your help.»
«There was resolution. Thank you.»

[ There is a long pause in which one might think she disconnected altogether, having completed the initial objective of this call. ]

«...I must know: what is the meaning of an individual?» [ Someone has been thinking about what happened during those days in Subaru's body, and the new things she has learned. ]

«Yes. I have been with her for over six years. It is not even a third of her lifespan, so I value the experience.»

[lastwaltz]

Eh...? Is there something odd about Subaru-san's lifespan?

[of_the_highest_caliber]

«No.» [ That was almost a slip but, in all honesty, it was just an error in her speech. ] «The meaning is that my lifetime has only been one third of Subaru's life experience. I look up to her advice.»

[lastwaltz]

... I see. Well, it must be nice having someone like that as a partner rather than a superior.

[of_the_highest_caliber]

«That is what I believe.»

[lastwaltz]

Then, you're a very lucky individual~

[of_the_highest_caliber]

«That was never my consideration. You may be correct.»

[lastwaltz]

I'm sure I am! More importantly, are you a little more confident about yourself, now?

[of_the_highest_caliber]

«There is more certainty, now.»

[lastwaltz]

Then that's all I could ask for! I'm glad to hear it.

[of_the_highest_caliber]

«You have an investment in the outcome?»

[lastwaltz]

[ yes nah man, just being a good self-esteem boosting class prez~ ]

I'd like to consider both of you friends. And, obviously, friends help each other out with questions like these, don't they?

[of_the_highest_caliber]

«That is truth.»

«Thank you. I do appreciate it.»

[lastwaltz]

You're welcome! Take care of yourself and Subaru-san, then!

[of_the_highest_caliber]

«It will be done.»
