{ she's fine with this right now, if only because she doesn't have much time on her hands either. }

Have you checked the network recently? It seems... Katsura-san may be ah. What is the best way to phrase this? He may be having an early life crisis.

{ he is too young to have a mid-life crisis but lbr it isn't far off the mark. }

[permboy]

Yeah, he's been having an early life crisis for the past few years at least.

[ They went through some stuff. But since Sonia apparently thinks it's bad enough to call him--

He sticks a finger up his nose and scowls up at the ceiling. ]

What's he doing?

[assent]

I... I see.

{ that just worries her more??? she'd been worried when he'd been awkward about showing the other side of himself (zurako) before but this is. something else. }

There are many ducks.

{ many is an understatement- }

[permboy]

[ pauses in his picking

For several seconds, he doesn't say anything. He just quietly thinks about the duck in his bathtub. He never did ask where it came from, did he? He didn't really question it. Just figured that Zura missed Elizabeth and got himself a duck from some farm or something, possibly stole it but why would he care?

Apparently, he probably should have. ]

How many?

[assent]

{ she pauses here, trying to recount it but-- }

I lost count, the video had too many to distinguish an accurate number. More than he could feasibly look after, which is why he was requesting help.

[permboy]

[ He heaves a long-suffering sigh as he resumes his nose picking and catches the booger he was after. ]

What the hell has he done?

[ As he flicks that booger away, he stands up ]

If he's stolen them from some farm or something ...

[assent]

I am not certain as to how he obtained them, but it sounds as though he believed he would be able to train them. There are too many for that though...

{ wait til he sees the true numbers of ducks }

[permboy]

Yeah, that sounds like something he would do. I'll take care of it.

[ Probably ought to check the network first - after he remembers how - just to be prepared. ]

[assent]

Once I am off work I will be able to assist if needed. However... I thought you may be the best person to ask for help.

Thank you, Gintoki.

[permboy]

Don't mention it.

[ Really, it's nothing. ]

[assent]

I shall catch up with you later to see if you require any further assistance. Until then, please take care.

[permboy]

Yeah, sure.

[ He'll hang up, then. ]
