Don't forget I've traveled extensively up until now. Many of those areas were hostile.
I always had a contingency plan.
[ That's not exactly true, since all those plans boiled down to brute force and other modes of violence. But, Ryo isn't about to admit what he moonlights as. He's always been drawn to danger. To him, this is irresistible.
But, he's never heard of that with regards to his coach. Ryo really doesn't know what to say in response to it. Really, his fondness for Ryuji (which he staunchly refuses to admit) is all that buys him the following at all: ]
I've been told I'm surprisingly resilient. You'd be loathe to lose more sleep over it, Sakamoto.
[ That's about as close to a "don't worry," Ryuji's going to get from him. Normally, he'd just shove it off. But... Well, he needn't add more thought to it. ]
Yeah, but there's a difference between takin' a flight out to see the world and tripping up into a place of the inner world, if that makes sense.
So here's some advice, in case you do end up in there. First, go with someone who has the app. They should say "The Real World" when shit hits the fan and it'll take you out.
Second, if you believe a plastic knife is a sword, then it's a sword. That line of thinking'll get you pretty far.
[He doesn't want!!! to offer advice to Ryo-yo about this at all, but he doesn't want him to go in there without anything to fend himself off.]
Yeah I'm pretty sure you'd loathe me on another 8 days without sleep dude and that's the LAST THING I ever wanna go through again
[ Better that you do, Ryuji. He'd have gone in with or without your compliance in this. Ryo doesn't know how to keep out of danger. ]
I'm aware. My experiences aren't likely to be compatible, but I know when I'm outstripped.
I'll see what I can't do. If I can't access it by usual means, I'll inquire about borrowing it elsewhere.
[ Why does Ryo Asuka like stupid boys. The eternal question. Can text carry the idea that someone is pinching the bridge of their nose with their free hand? Sure. ]
[He's said his peace, which was, earnestly, to warn him about the dangers, which is all he can do since he can't go in there to save Ryo-yo's butt if anything goes down south.]
[ Don't worry, he's got a big, giant demon who loves him and a gun. You'll figure that out soon enough. Ryo-yo: casually shattering the illusion further that he's not nearly as placid as he likes to appear. ]
I appreciate the information.
[ There's a small pause and then: there's an attachment. It's a video. If Ryuji opens it up, it's a quick tutorial on how to turn his communicator on silent. ]
Here. You can sleep in this way. If that doesn't help, you can come find me.
[ It isn't like he likes you or anything, Sakamoto. ]
[He knows the quiet, reserved types have a hidden side to them. He's still waiting for that moment to bloom with Ryo-yo, but like all other things with him, it's slow and steady. Like a turtle. The key is finding the right amount of pushing without getting him to recede into the shell, and Ryuji thinks? maybe he's pretty okay doing that.

I'll keep it in mind.
[ So dry... ]
I fared better than most at the end of it.
