Anybody ever made a wall out of liminal goo before?

Yeah - it's maybe a few centimeters wide, but I can get it pretty long.

...Wonder if I stumbled into that at some point, somehow. The only other thing I know of with goo is Thorne's template business, and I sure can't do that.

Or maybe you found an alternate method.

Maybe. Either way, goo wall.

Well, more of a goo bubble.

...Maybe that's what did it. You can already create bubbles, right?

Yeah, but it never directly involved the goo before.

Yeah, but bubbles aren't really meant to keep things in, though; they're more geared towards keeping things out, and even then I think people can come and go as they please. You were trying to keep this guy contained, so you needed something stronger than a bubble, but the general shape of a bubble was still useful.

...Got a point there.

It's been known to happen on occasion.

Just on occasion?

[She put up with Junpei. Surely it happened more than once.]

Multiple occasions?

[She had gotten pretty good at logicking herself around certain conversational topics while she'd been at Gekkoukan. Certainly, that had been the best approach to take with Hidetoshi.]

[It's... probably better for everyone that Shinji never met him.]

Sounds more like it.

[Probably.]

Okay.

[And that's as far as she wants to go with that, since she'd been mostly joking to begin with. She just hadn't expected him to take it seriously, and now she's kicking herself because what does it say that she didn't anticipate that?

Regardless, a subject change is probably in order.]

Anyway, I think it makes more sense to look at it as a solidified bubble than a tether that's been stretched out the other way.

[To be fair, he was partly joking back. The other part just doesn't want to see Minako undervaluing herself.]

Maybe. I wasn't in the bubble - would that make any difference?

I don't know - I mean, I could see using that as a protective wall, too. How long did you maintain it?

Good few minutes. Some of the people who showed up wanted to unload the dragons he did load up, so I took it down then.

That might be something to test at some point, although no matter which side of the wall you're on you probably don't want to have to maintain it for long.

[She's mostly thinking aloud right now.]
