5. Text, PSA | Not even bothered to be locked from Minato

My brother Minato is recovering from mono! That means he's still contagious. So if he takes you out somewhere, don't kiss him, even though he's cute. Or share straws or chopsticks. (And it might be good to wash your hands if you touch him but try to do it quietly because he's sensitive.)

But he is getting better and he's been sleeping all month, so if you see him you should say hello and get to know him! He's a really nice guy when he isn't full of germs. ヽ(*≧ω≦)ﾉ He likes music and listening to people talk to him, and he'd really love to make some new friends.

[This post comes with only the best of sisterly intentions. Minato may love to sleep, but she'd seen how grumpy he'd gotten with almost a month of enforced bed rest. It was time for him to get out and meet new people, and what better way than to give him a not-so-gentle push?

Whatever her purpose was though, it got a reaction. Minako didn't bother to wait until her brother was asleep again to post, so not too long after her PSA goes up, another message quickly follows from a somewhat embarrassed and rather annoyed Minato.]

Please disregard most of what my sister has posted here! Except the part about mono.

But I'm not sensitive, and I'm not looking for anyone to kiss right now. [He has a kind of sort of girlfriend here, after all.]

Though I guess if anyone knows much about playing the violin or likes running, it would be nice to find someone to run with a few times a week when I'm better.

[It feels kind of weird asking about that, but... without Akihiko, running and keeping in shape is going to get lonely, and he doesn't know if the school has a track team. So, even if he is annoyed with his sister for starting all this, he... is kind of slightly grateful. And he might as well take advantage of it to ask about a running partner, right?

Besides, maybe there's someone else out there who plays the violin or something, too. He missed the concert due to illness, and he regrets the chance not to find some more people who play music.]

[Private to Minato, MINAKO KEEP OUT]

[OH MY GODS CAN YOU NOT REMIND EVERYONE HOW AND WHO HE MIGHT HAVE GOTTEN THAT FROM.]

We need to get back at your sister.

...also I'll go running with you, as soon as you have the energy to do so.

She's trying to read over my shoulder right now. [ So they shouldn't plot right now. ]

I'd like that. Thank you.

MINAKO IF YOU CAN SEE THIS, I KNOW YOU ARE READING. BACK AWAY FROM THE SCREEN.

I'll have you back up and active in no time at all!

[W o w don't say it like that Sanadas and being innocent with double entrées.]

I think you made her more suspicious.

But thanks. (^_^)b

[Oh is she...well then...]

...BUT WHERE WILL WE HIDE THE BODY?

[ audio ]

[fools_journey]

[ Minato starts to type up a reply, but then Minako tackles him to try and get a hold of his comp, and he accidentally switches to audio. Miki will now be treated to the sounds of a struggle! ]

Hey - stop! Minako!

[thinking]

[helenchanter]

[Ahhh, the sounds of family bounding. Maybe she should feel bad she might have been the catalyst in all of that...but then again Miki had her own mischievous streak. And thus, she waited. And almost regretted she didn't have a small bag of popcorn.]

[action/audio]

[greatseal]

Let me talk to her!

[is the audible reply. Minako meanwhile is sitting on Minato's back, pinning him down as she tries to take his COMP watch from him.]

[still thinking...and action]

[helenchanted]

[Yeap, that does sound like what she could remember of Aki and Shinji arguing as a child and what she had seen here before...]

[...you know what she's going to record this conversation for future prosperity.]
