[ barely knows what ai is even after all this. its a person who isnt fully real and then becomes a tamagotchi... ]

So which do you end up doing more?

Honestly? Both.

[ gestures at ryuki. ] Being a psyncer is a stressful job. It’s practically a requirement to have mental health support for something like that. ABIS takes on much darker cases than regular law enforcement.

Yeah. I kind of noticed.

[ a little. wry. An Adventure ]

[ an adventure and a half ]

[ turns his widdle tamagotchi over in his hand ]

Support, huh... [ hmm ] Guess that makes sense. [ imagine being given support on issues???? sounds fake ]

[ his little pardner... that beeps to be fed. ]

Mmhmm. No one can do everything alone.

[ sorry distracted by feeding this little buddy and cleaning up its poop while looking at it like its Precious ]

Sure. [ it is a sentiment he agrees with and then very rarely actually applies to himself hes so dumb ]
