Tch... this place sucks as much as ever.
[The voice that filters over the network sounds like it belongs to someone who would rather be doing literally anything else. Which is accurate. Ichimatsu doesn't exactly do public speaking. Hell, he hates even answering the phone back home with every strand of his DNA - which says something, considering he's got five other peoples' worth of DNA to speak of. But this is the fastest way he can think of to deal with his situation. At least he doesn't have to show his face; no way would he be able to do this then.]
[There's a slight sound of crunching snow in the background.]
Hey, all of you. Not that I'm gonna stop anyone, but don't bother going up into the snowy areas. It's cold as hell and there's suspicious-looking berries everywhere. Stupid-looking monsters, too. Dunno what the hell any of 'em do, but I'd stay away from all of it if I were you. You'll probably die.
[Why, exactly, Ichimatsu himself is up in the higher elevations of Ensō... he doesn't seem to feel like sharing. He wouldn't even bother pretending to be a good citizen and put this warning out at all if he didn't have an ulterior motive. The crunch of his footfalls pause.]
... oh, and if you recognize this voice, let me know. If you don't... then don't worry about it.

no subject
[What he isn't mentioning is that he recalls visiting that shitty dream-island before arriving, where Jyushimatsu himself mentioned having met the Drifter. So, even though he doesn't know their actual dynamic - or if they've even developed one yet - he knows that his friend and brother were at least aware of each other's existence.]
[And, because he feels like he knows both of them reasonably well, he knows there's no way either of them would fail to extend a hand if the other needed it. Thinking he's that particular connecting point is a weird feeling, but he brushes it mostly aside. Two good people meeting is a good thing, regardless.]
Anyway, I can't stay long. But I have some stuff for us.
no subject
?
[Their head tips to one side. They can recognize a deliberate change in subject when they hear one, and it's easier to pay attention to that than it is anything else he's said. Those awkward, stumbling attempts at sincerity are not always comfortable for him, they know.]
[They have acknowledged it. More concerning now is the odd turn of phrase he's used.]
no subject
[Or is it the 'stuff' they're worried about? Maybe he's giving off the wrong idea here..... he's not being a criminal right now, ok.]
It's nothing special. But the garden out in the stupid monkey village is still mostly alive, so I picked some herbs for tea. Drink some with me.
no subject
ok
[Perhaps they're too eager to agree. But it's been...some time since they've seen him. They have been forced, in more ways than one, to slow down from their relentless and nigh unceasing drive to always get things done.]
[And besides. Is this not worth celebrating?]
