今夜遅くに働いているよ。すまんな。
晩御飯を食べてもいいよ。
スーパーに何か居るの？帰る途中行けるな。

[Pop quiz, Anya. How much of "Working late tonight. Sorry. Don't wait for me for dinner. Do you need anything from the grocery store? I'll stop on my way home." can you actually read?]

[constellates]

[it's a pleasant surprise to say.... most of it? it's written a lot more casually than how she personally understands Japanese, but she will respond back! with all the proper -desus and -masus because that's just as far as her fluency goes at the moment]

Is this Mama? Did you have to borrow someone's phone?
If it is, okay Mama! Have a good night shift. Let yourself rest, please.

[unimpheired]

[...this is not Peko. He's not sure who this is, but it's definitely not Peko. At least they understand Japanese, he guesses? Though, thanks to her formality and the use of "mama", he's assuming he accidentally texted a Japanese child.]

[Which luckily means that he puts a more concentrated effort in keeping his kansai dialect to a minimum. Normally spell check catches the worst of it, but he doesn't usually bother trying to correct to the mor standard dialect. Since...normally he's really only texting Peko and his sister anyway.]

Ah, sorry! This isn't your Mama.
I was trying to text a friend but it looks like the message got redirected.
So you can ignore that, it was a mistake.

[constellates]

[Anya's pretty close to an actual Japanese child.

No, just kidding - she's still pretty innocent and inoffensive though.]

Oh! That is okay. Thank you for explaining.
It seems like that is a problem with phones lately.
Maybe it will be easier if you call your friend?
And there is a sale at the grocery store today on certain foods. If you are interested?

[unimpheired]

Yeah, I think I'm gonna try calling her from one of the landlines at the station.
If my cell phone can misdirect a text, I won't be surprised if if can misdirect a phone call too. So I think a landline might be safer.

[He hopes.]

Is there? Good to know.
I may have to swing by once I'm off, even if she doesn't need anything.

[constellates]

Do you think it is your entire phone?
Maybe it should be fixed too. But that is a lot of errands for someone busy.
Do your best.

Yes! On fish and some types of snacks. For easy meals and lunches.
Like the chips that fit on fingers.

[she'll just try to make friends with anyone apparently]

[unimpheired]

Yeah, pretty sure it's because of this app that installed itself the other day.
Can't get rid of it and it's been causing all kinds of problems ever since.

[Like that video. And now all these misfires. He's like 90% sure Retrospec is actually a computer virus.]

Chips that fit on fingers?

[constellates]

Retrospec? I have it too.
I have had it for a month now and it is still very odd. But it did not do all this music and video and wrong message before.

[also - ]

[chips that fit on fingers]

[unimpheired]

Yeah, that's the one.
Did it do anything weird last month? Or was it just a normal social media app?

Oh! Bugle chips!
Is that some American thing? Eating them off your fingers?

[He never thought to do that before because he is a grown ass man. With no sense of fun.]

[constellates]

We cannot remove it. And only people on the app remember horses.
That was odd.

Maybe! It is how I have always eaten them. Very tasty.
And fun?
Or do you like sweet snacks?

[snack adventure crew begins]

[unimpheired]

My little sister's a bigger fan of sweets than I am.

[Now this was the lie that retrospec should have broadcast, honestly. He's a total sweet snacks junkie. But that's not manly, so he can't talk about it. Duh.]

[constellates]

That is good too.
I do not know you but I know a lot of good sweets.
I can share them with your family?
