He relaxes just a fraction, maneuvering his way around the food on his plate. “Thanks.” “I’ve— I’ve talked t-to some people about s-some stuff,” Kenji says, once again purposefully vague. “Um. N-Not necessarily about the stealing bit much b-but… A-About the end goal, I g-guess.” That’s dangerously close to too much out loud. “There’s.. some. Um. Stuff to look out for. O-On the other side.” Static. Think of the static. “It’s.. It’s definitely i-important.” @Gab | Ip🪩 + Subaru

Isabelle took in the information carefully, once again noting the hesitation. "The other side? I'd ask you to elaborate but I have the feeling you're trying to avoid just that. Any chance you can tell me why or is that also off the table?" She asked carefully, having seen this attitude many times before. If he was so hesitant... there was no doubt that they were listening in, but it was still possible there is information far too sensitive to share in that state. @em | mallon 🎣 + kenji 🌒

Kenji, worriedly, bites at the side of his cheek. “…I don’t… I d-don’t know…” He admits after a moment, shoulder hunching slightly. “I wanted t-to tell others but..Lykos was— They were p-pretty adamant we not talk about it in the open.. Not when they c-can hear us.” @Gab | Ip🪩 + Subaru

So her hunch was right. "I understand. Sensitive information is always tough to speak about, especially in a case where the person who's not supposed to hear it is in our heads. I suppose then that you can't tell me how he was able to tell you either." Isabelle sighed. It wasn't the answer she wanted, but she's willing to accept it either way. @em | mallon 🎣 + kenji 🌒

“We.. We saw s-something,” Kenji dares to elaborate. “It’s not..safe to t-talk without being there.” Gods, he’s really pushing it. Feels like his heart is going to explode right out of his chest. He sighs, sitting back in his seat. “I’m getting real tired of h-having people in my— i-in my head, honestly..” @Gab | Ip🪩 + Subaru

Isabelle nods. "I understand. It sounds upsetting to even try saying it. Is there anything we can do to make sure they can't hear? If there isn't without Dr. Lykos' help that's perfectly fine Kenji. If you don't feel you can tell me, you don't have to." @em | mallon 🎣 + kenji 🌒

“You.. You have to see it to know. As annoying a-as that is..” Kenji half-mutters the second part. “But it has to do with that. Them— Them hearing us. It would’ve been easier to spread i-if we were back on that side..” @Gab | Ip🪩 + Subaru

Isabelle hummed. "I know. The other side though, you must be referring to the tv room. I never looked too hard at everything they had in there, so I must've missed it." @em | mallon 🎣 + kenji 🌒

Kenji bites back the urge to wince at that, glancing around the room. Hopefully there’s enough attention elsewhere. “Y-Yeah. It’s easy to miss. Just— Just be careful. If you end up b-back there.” (mind if we wrap this up? i have a big exam thurs so im gotta disappear for a bit unfortunately

(yeye good luck on the exam my dude) Isabelle nodded. Something something she opened her mouth to speak and got yoinked for the arena thing.
