[It's not even been much time since the start of the Jaunt, and there's already a message of panic on the Headnet. Really, Adachi doesn't even realize he's doing it at first, but there's just a steady stream of utter panic, constant mutterings of no no no no no no no over and over again, before he finally realizes what he's doing.]

G-guys... guys, I've got a serious problem here. Like threatening my life issue.

[There's a pause, before there's some kind of mental screech from him. It sounds something like a car hitting the breaks mixed together with a dog whimper.]

Naoto's hitting on me, and it's kinda hot.

[...yes, that is the entire reason for his utter distress.]

Wow. That's... that's something, all right.

Does it say anything other than 'a friend'?

[wantedittobeagame]

Trying to find out; she's more focused on flirting with me.

Naoki, I'm scared.

[leftbehindagain]

Not that it isn't freaky, but everyone else is missing the important part of this conversation because they're treating your opener exactly as seriously as it deserves to be. Oh no, a girl is flirting with you, how awful.

I know it's extra weird because it's Naoto, but... maybe don't tell everyone it's a giant emergency next time?

[wantedittobeagame]

Well how else am I supposed to treat it?!

[leftbehindagain]

How about 'not with a public broadcast'?

[Sorry, Adachi, this is getting to 'laugh' more than 'beat head against something' territory. He's at least trying not to pass that on?]

[wantedittobeagame]

You're such a wonderful help.

[leftbehindagain]

I try.

[He learned from an expert. Adachi should know that part better than just about anyone.]
