Yo! Aah, this is unfortunate... Well, this and that came up, so it seems I can't answer the phone right now! I'm definitely not trying to ignore you, so please leave a message for me instead, ＯＫ?

There's a few places... some streets I've taken a few times. I know where they lead, so there's no chance of us getting cornered, but they aren't places I normally go.

[He's already beginning to walk, setting a quick pace. They can discuss their options while they go.]

Of course, that guy might see through it... What about you?

Action

[melodyoflogic]

We should hit the districts we visit least. Even if they predict it, they won't know where we'll go exactly either when we don't. [They'd go in mostly blind, but their.... other selves would be, too. He walks alongside Hizumi, keeping pace.]

It's a big city, and areas are still rebuilding. We can take advantage of that.

Action

[bondsofsuffering]

[A nod.]

We should try to avoid being seen too much, though... I checked my COMP, and the other 'me' was having a private conversation with someone. It looks like it's normal for the doubles to have golden eyes, so he was trying to get help with finding me.

[Talk about terrible coincidence.]

Action

[melodyoflogic]

[...That made things a bit more difficult.] Hopefully anyone who knows you will know better, but as for anyone else.... that might cause a mess.

....Think sunglasses might help?

Action

[bondsofsuffering]

I've never met that person before. He probably doesn't know any better.

[Hopefully he's not too overly helpful, but given he took the initiative to give that warning post in the first place...]

It might.

Action

[melodyoflogic]

We can get a pair that completely obscures your eyes. It would alter the visible color. [Though some of these things might try the same....]

Action

[bondsofsuffering]

At this point, any pair will do. I think the supermarket nearby should have some.

[And with that said, he begins heading in that direction.]

Action

[melodyoflogic]

[Ayumu heads after him, but when they get close, he stops Hizumi with a hand on his shoulder.] .... You should probably hide out here while I get them. People will know about the eyes.

Action

[bondsofsuffering]

[And Hizumi will obligingly pause, tilting his head only slightly to listen.]

...Alright. I'll wait around the corner.

Action

[melodyoflogic]

[Ayumu nods, ducking into the supermarket and looking for the aisle containing the sunglasses. Once he finds them, he snatches up the most covering pair he can find and heads to the front to pay for it quickly.

If he seems to be in a rush, the cashier makes no comment about it. With the appearance of these things throwing people for a loop, it's no wonder either.]

Action

[bondsofsuffering]

[Hizumi seems to be lost in thought by the time Ayumu returns, but he quickly snaps back to attention once he spots him.]

--Thanks.
