[ 'friends.' it's not a word he really uses, not a word he likes to. he's so distant most of the time it'd seem presumptuous in most cases, and in others...
well. it's just one more person who'd hurt if and when he dies? still. ]
[ evenly: ] I might remember to. It certainly wouldn't hurt to communicate more.
[ though, a bit more seriously, ] But about what, exactly? I doubt I know much more than you do about what's going on around here, unfortunately, outside of useless things like Hisoka's pointlessly cryptic messages.
And I'm sure those were just to cause a commotion rather than actually mean anything, all things considered.
Honestly, he reminds me too much of someone I know from home. After a while you start tuning most of what they say out...
[ 'rideaux brought me a weird rumor again, he's always getting excited over gossip, but maybe, this time it's valid.' ]
But of course, if he's anything like them, there's at least some things worth listening to in all that. Still, I really doubt a note with a few names at random is meant to mean anything other than, as you said, stirring the pot.
It was three names, if even that, since one of them was his own. 'Fr, mm, Hsk.' And it came from just a few days before he died, so.
[ he shrugs. ]
I've since sent him a message via the... phones, we've received, asking about it just in case but given that there's been no response, well. And I did try to search around a little, back then, to see if there was anything those three might have had in common, but if there was I didn't manage to quite find it.

Hey, we're friends, right?

... I suppose we are. Why?
no subject
Date: 2019-07-10 10:23 pm (UTC)Because it makes me happy, that's all. Doesn't it make you happy?
no subject
Date: 2019-07-10 11:28 pm (UTC)I meant, 'why are you asking' rather than 'why are we friends'. I don't think friendships necessarily need a reason, do they?
[ some do, of course, but. ]

But you know, saying something like that... Why, it's almost as if you're trying to say I don't tell you enough.

Date: 2019-07-11 12:50 am (UTC)Well... You could tell me more. If you wanted to. It wouldn't hurt.

Date: 2019-07-11 11:34 pm (UTC)... Hisoka-san, huh...? He likes to stir the pot. Pretty interesting, but it does make it hard to know if anything he says is true or not.

So do you know if the note was trying to tell you anything? Or maybe even convince you to do something...
