Here.

[ At first, there's nothing but that single message from Rikyo.

Five minutes later, he sends a short video clip of Goemon sniffing the camera. Nothing but nose. ]

[ A ping. From Rikyo? This is probably fine, but he can’t help but be a little on-edge as he opens the video.

Oh. It’s Goemon! ]

Aw, look at his little sniffer go. How’s he faring lately?

Well. He could benefit from another trip to Ishigakijima when I next have business in Okinawa.

[ Another few moments pass, then another text. ]

What is causing fish to fear you

Oh, well, of course he's welcome anytime. Are you all coming to Shark House, too? I'm sure we can make room.

[ The next text comes in, and he chuckles. He'd had the same username for a while, and no one's ever asked. ]

That? I guess they fear me because I'm so good at catching them. It's just a silly saying on a hat that Iru bought me a while ago. I can show you when you're here - it must be in a drawer somewhere.

[ There's a nine second long clip of the side of Ryu's face. It takes him four seconds to realize he's not taking a selfie ... ]

Man, what the hell!! Hey! Zumi, are you—

[ ... And another five seconds to fumble it enough to turn it off. ]

[ A screen shot of a shopping list. Everything is misspelled. ]

[ Another shopping list but this one is for ... a hardware store? What could he possibly need. ]

[ Black. The inside of his pocket. His voice is clear, though. If you listen real close-like, you can hear ...

Women. ]

... No way! Haha, I thought you lived here already. You don't look like tourists.

[ The reply from one of the girls is a little distant and wind-blown. ]

Oh, yeah, nah. Definitely not just for locals. I mean if you wanna come by — hang on, lemme —

[ Fumblefumble. Abrupt end. ]

( The surge of notifications catches Manato off guard. R?
Oh. He should know better by now. Glad to see his Head is still his Head, despite the chaos going on elsewhere.
It's a safer bet to call him, though. )

Hey, Ryu? What's up?

Huh? Ah! This thing's been messing with me all day!

[ He huffs, but laughs despite himself. ]

We're out right now, but while I have you, d'you need anything?

You have got to be kidding me. Was this you, or is Goemon able to cover his tracks now??

( Attached is an image of a broken dish comically swept under a rug in the Kuramu and Rikyo apartment. )
