Mmm.

[he nods at Nick, because that's good enough]

That said, I'm going to tell them both what happens when one team wins. I won't mention your name or power, though. . . so that'll stay safe.

And I'll only tell those two.

[because he really isn't sure that information should spread too far just yet]

Sure thing. But let them know to take it with a grain of salt. I think there's still a lot we don't know.

[ so good instinct ]

I will; don't worry. I don't think those two will spread it very far until our information is confirmed.

. . . I really don't want anyone to wipe out Heart's team.

[PROTECT HEART 2020]

[ he will just nod ]

Oh? Have a special liking for the director.... or its members?

[PHOENIX THAT'S THE THIRD TIME YOU'VE ASKED HIM IF HE'S ON HEART'S TIME. at this point Akira just laughs]

Both, actually. But not for the reason you're probably thinking.

[ he asked if akira liked purple's members!!!!!!!! he was asking if akira knew who was on the team, wow, learn to read mysterious phoenixese ]

What reason would that be?

[WELL HIS ANSWER SHOULD TAKE CARE OF THAT CURIOSITY THEN!!]

. . . I've talked to Heart a lot. They're easy to get along with and actually incredibly kind.

And really fun to tease.

I think all the directors are, in their own way. What makes Purple stand above the others?

I never said they stood out above the others.

[lightly teasing]

Just that they're the most familiar to me. [a pause] . . . but if you were thinking that I'm on their team. . .

I'm not.

You do seem to favor them a lot, slushies aside.

[ dad will always tease. ]

That's a shame. The wordplay would have been right up your alley.

Willing to tell me which team that is?

Maybe some of them I favor in secret.

[a cheeky little smile, a spark appearing in his one good eye]

Depends. Will you share with me yours?

I had no idea you were so sneaky, Akira.

[ he seems like he approves. ]

Of course. And it'll stay between us -- I would expect that both ways.

Phantom thief, remember?

[he's a bad liar but SOME things he's good at lying about]

And of course. I trust you, and I wouldn't betray your trust in me.

. . . I'm on Winter's team.

Off stealing the director's hearts....

[ tsk tsk. ]

I'm on Heart's. I'm sure my title isn't hard to guess, so would you mind telling me yours?

Medium at Large?

[flashing Phoenix a wry smile at that, before he answers]

Morgan le Fay.

Edited 2020-06-30 00:15 (UTC)

Got it in one. Pretty ironic, considering I do actually know a small medium at large.

[ shut up phoenix. ]

We match.

[ do you???? ]

. . . we do?

[because they both start with 'M'???]

Guess you had to be there.

[ it's cause morgan and maya so akira will never get it except when we eventually memshare ]

So, what have you been getting in the way of prizes?

[snort, oh well]

A kazoo. A weird flute. [ocarina] A useless whistle.

And you?

Almost the same -- just replace whistle with slinky.

[ he actually pulls it out to show it off. they all do nothing, for the record. ]

So, once again, it's Black Shadow's team winning.

[what a cute slinkie!!]

It is, which is kind of concerning if our last two culprits really were from that team.

[ i love it.... ]

Too bad there's no way to make everyone cough up their items without possibly facing consequences.

[ when are we gonna memshare i forgot about it ]

[NOW BECAUSE I TOO FORGOT ABOUT IT]

Yeah.

[slumping a bit]

What a pain in the--

[ass, he thinks, but he looks over at Phoenix as he talks and suddenly there is a memory (27:10 onwards)]

..... It's bigger than I remembered.... your fursona.

[ sometimes your son just goes and fights god i guess, he's honestly pretty used to this at this point ]

Should I ask?

[ he can't help looking a little impressed, though. ]

. . . Persona.

[PLEASE HE IS ONLY 10% FURRY]

You can ask. It's a long story, but not a bad one.
