[It's Porthos' first time speaking on the network and the picture of him in the locket has a face like a thunderstorm. He is so done with this place and you're about to find out why - ]

It seems in our tumultuous emotional state having first been brought here, my friend and I have managed to insult the imps.

[Or rather Aramis shot one, ran into Porthos, and there was a fight that wasn't fatal but a tad more vicious than a Musketeer vs. imp fingersnap dance routine.]

As you can imagine, they've taken it upon themselves to remind us that we're not forgiven for our trespass. [He won't mention that swearing at them also didn't work, he knew it wouldn't, it just made him feel better.] And since we come from a world where magic doesn't exist, or if it does it's very scarce, I was wondering what could be done to appease them in some way.

[In other words please get the little buggers to stop leaving fish heads in his boots, tugging his beard until he wakes up in the night, etc.]

I will owe a reasonably proportioned debt to whoever can provide good advice.

Ask Lumina about it. They like her.

[ ...Well, it's the advice she has to offer, anyway... ]

Otherwise, bribe them with treats.

[He's got a good idea of what treats the imps might like by now, but - ]

Who's Lumina?

Pink haired girl from our court. Since you can just call people on the lockets by asking for them by name, it shouldn't be hard to get into contact with her.

[ Presumably. It's the only reason Shijima's bothering to remember names at this point.

...She's good with people. ]

[meloncholy]

How on earth did she manage that? [Other than not mixing fire arms into the equation, obviously.]

[liven]

I didn't ask. But she's very good with them.

[ apparently she saved their lives or something???? ]

[meloncholy]

Right then. I'll give her a shot if I can't figure it out myself. Thanks.

[liven]

It wasn't really any trouble. What did you do to insult them, though? Try to kill them? They seem to dislike that.

[ for some crazy-ass reason! ]

[meloncholy]

We weren't trying to kill them, exactly. But we did shoot at them. Just a little bit. Mostly it was Aramis who did the shooting.

[Who he is not and will never abandon when it comes to fighting off pint-sized hordes or making amends, but he's giving blame where blame is due.]

[liven]

That explains it, then. I tried to kill some, but people kept telling me to quit it.

[ she sounds annoyed. ]
