[02:43] Kagura     You never learn, Kagura-chan. [02:45] Kagura     Cell phones are useful, especially at work, [02:48] Kagura     but you'll need to check Gin-chan's four-dimensional pouch. [02:53] Kagura     But I can't just ask him directly. [02:56] Kagura     It would be so much easier if I could just text him.

Can we use them now? [04:53] Gengai     You can't make calls. [04:54] Gengai     The phone will add a puripuri to the end of everything you say. [04:57] Shin     Isn't that more impressive than a working cell phone?! [04:59] Gengai     You only have enough money for me to fix the texting function. [05:08] Kagura     Yay! [05:11] Kagura     Thanks, Gramps! [05:12] Kagura     Thanks, Sadaemon! [05:15] Gin     I don't want to carry around a cell phone that was covered in poop.

[20:17] Gin     Besides, you aren't finished with those yet. [20:22] Gin     Your wife hasn't responded yet. [20:27] Holy     Wh-What are you saying? [20:30] Holy     She can't respond to me... [20:35] Gin     That's the power of a text from Holy Cancer. [20:38] Shin     It's not that strange for a text message to make it up to heaven. [20:47] Holy     I see... [20:48] Holy     My last message reached her... [20:54] Wife     I should be thanking you. [20:56] Wife     Have fun with your friends. [20:58] Holy     When did she start using emotes? [21:19] Kagura     Did it reach heaven? [21:24] Gin     Beats me. [21:25] Gin     If you got the message through to an idiot, [21:27] Gin     you probably got it through to heaven. [21:40] Holy     I suppose that they don't need these. [22:00] Gin     Hey, why are you grinning? [22:03] Gin     It's creeping me out. [22:04] Shin     No kidding. [22:05] Kagura     It's nothing.
