[ Apropos of nothing: a picture of the unobstructed sun and clouds with the timestamp in the corner the next day. The date is a mystery, but the time will be stamped as 10:02AM.
Continuing on with the less yappy than usual correspondence: ]
[ oh, that looks nice. it's also a sign that he's doing all right, that he wasn't being toted at gunpoint.
and that means he's not in neo tokyo right now, because she'll send him a snap around an hour later: an completely overcast sky, the clear umbrella she's holding above her head already splattered with raindrops. ]
[ He's trying to stay off the grid so save for several contacts, his notifications are remaining muted. Still, it does take several minutes for him to get back to her despite that, in which he'll react to the picture itself with a "😮" before following up with a proper message. ]
On your lunch break? Make sure you're bundled up——cause from what I remember, your uniform's pretty lightweight.
Don't let flu season catch up to you now!
[ Cue another photo: his arm, sleeve halfway down his hand. From the image alone, the fabric looks thick and soft. If he's going to tease her about dressing warmly, he's not about to be a hypocrite.
In any case, if there's nothing urgent—he'll see her for tomorrow's check-in… ]
[ another delay, this time a half-hour later, and -- sorry, she's going to squint at this shot of his sleeve. ]
You can afford to show some skin in hot weather, you know. A little tan won't kill you.
[ white man....... is he still conscious of the rocks he has on his body? she'd always thought they were pretty, but if she says anything it's going to boost his ego for days on end and we don't want that, do we.
anyway the reason why she's taking a bit long to reply is because of the next photo she's sliding into their dms: a piping-hot bowl of croquette udon along with a simple glass of water. ]
[ Get out of her inbox she says, but here he is the very next day, out who knows where looking at pictures of actual restaurant food be like damn wish that were me.
Except… he finds that he's not actually missing all that much, rustic as the offerings are. He's being reminded of a distant time that he thought he would've never been able to re-experience. It's nice. What else is nice is seeing that she's taking care of herself. 9:58AM this time. ]
🐦🐦
[ Today's picture: two birds on a branch, huddled up to one another for warmth. A way to say: no, he isn't somewhere warm at the moment, stop judging his pasty white ass for being all bundled up. :( ]
[ and the reason why he isn't getting back to her instantly is because of he can't ruin the immersion of it. totally because he can't ruin the immersion of it.
Anyway, if she doesn't have anything pressing to say… he's getting back to her the next day, with another picture of wildlife. A butterfly drinking pollen from a flower, also around the ballpark of 10AM. ]
🦋🌼
Is it really that surprising? What would I have to lie about it for?
I'm trying not to access my oculars any more than necessary, sorry, sorry. If it's any consolation, I do have physical cameras with me so I can share shots with you whenever I managed to get them processed.
[ another message in the morning, around the same time… no wildlife this time, just of a river and the debris that surrounds it. Nothing like the waters in Transylvania. ]
🌊
[ and… one can imagine the next few messages continue on, just as idyllic. kicking this out of my inbox to spare both of us. help. ]
