The HELL did you do to my comm!? HOW?! WHAT ARE ALL THESE TEXTS!!? What the HELL is a damn Azatsu... Aza.. what's that even mean?! Why is everything in goddamn English!!

Rrrgh-

I KNOW YOU DID THIS, you piece of patchwork freak show SHIT!! Don't make me go find you! GET OVER HERE!! RIGHT NOW!!! If I have to hunt your sorry ass down I will END you!!

[If anyone in N5 takes a look at it, the list of things she did includes:

- set it to English
- took a selfie of herself and bluetsuo for background, her face as lock screen
- signed him up for bath and body newsletters
- signed up for at least ten different automated daily trivia text bots
- replaced all his contacts with Lovecraftian Old God names, which is why the network is graced with his presence.]

I don't think threats will help you, Tetsuo-san.

[ video ]

[iamtetsuo]

They're not just threats!!

[ video ]

[enucleation]

Then that person certainly won't approach and put it back the way it was.

[iamtetsuo]

She doesn't get a choice! I'll make that idiot do it anyway!

[deadtective]

What's the matter, man? You seem kinda blue about something.

[it's amazing that Hazel has the coherency to make this terribly ill-timed joke right now considering she's currently in the middle of a debilitating giggle fit. that's true dedication right there.]

[iamtetsuo]

TALK, dammit! I can't read this!

[deadtective]

[oh no, that's sent her shrieking laughter into a fever pitch. it's going to be a few minutes before he gets a response - still in text, because why wouldn't it be?]

Oh man, now isn't that a fucking problem? And I don't chat on this thing for anybody to boot.

[iamtetsuo]

WHAT ARE YOU SAYING?! WHO IS THIS??

action;

[rassera]

Leeeeeet me see that.

[Sorry, Tetsuo, Kaneda's gonna try and take that out of your hands right now to get a better look. He's got a bit of height on you now, so his arm can try and reach over to get it a little.]


...


Damn. [He rotates it in his hand like it's some foreign space object now, spinning it between his fingertips.]


I can't read any of this.

[no SHIT, Kaneda.]

action;

[iamtetsuo]

Something wrong with your hearing? I just said it's English!

[Beyond an immediate grab for his comm as it's lifted from his hands, he doesn't put more effort into snatching it back. Yes, elder and outer gods are English, too.]

action;

[rassera]

Probably going deaf with your screaming....

[But he inspects it for a moment or two longer before setting it on the coffee table.]

How'd she get that picture of you? And why are you blue?

action;

[iamtetsuo]

I don't know! She did it somehow!!! Ask her!

[resipiscent]

What's wrong with your comm?

[It could literally be anything. Tetsuo's not really made himself known for passivity.]

[iamtetsuo]

EVERYTHING!!

[resipiscent]

Ah, yes.

[He totally knows what you mean.]

[iamtetsuo]

I can't read a damn word of this. Everyone's names are wrong, it won't let me text anyone!! It - dammit!

What are these boxes saying?!

[A short while after this network post -- he had to come home -- Ken appears in front of Tetsuo and wordlessly takes the phone from his hands, or vicinity if he'd thrown it somewhere, and sits down cross-legged in the middle of the second floor lounge area to start fiddling with it. It's no problem for him to fix the language and click through his e-mail to undo the subscription and text bots, and he changes the pictures, too. When he shows it to Tetsuo again, the lock screen is a picture of Grim the cat's face, and the background is another one of him, but lying on Tetsuo's bed.]

I need your help with fixing the contacts though. I don't want to just read your texts.

action;

[iamtetsuo]

[As Ken works, Tetsuo paces around with all the frustrated impatience of a caged tiger. He doesn't question what he's doing beyond occasionally looming above him to imperiously watch him silently undo all of Hazel's handiwork, then finally takes to perching, vulturelike, on the back of the couch to wait for him to finish.

Once he's done, Tetsuo snatches it back to scroll around. It's legible again. There's no alerts obscuring his screen. Things are immediately much improved.]

...that's better...

[Even Grim the new background is met with approval.]

You can fix all these, too, huh?

[amadaman]

Yeah. As long as we can figure out who each of these people are, renaming them shouldn't be a huge problem. You can get to your old conversations, right?

audio;

[rideme]

Would you breath for five fucking seconds and bring your comm to someone who won't smash it into a wall?

I'm outside, I can hear you fucking screaming from here.

audio;

[iamtetsuo]

[Pokes head out window to look.]

Like who, huh?! You gonna suggest someone?!

action;

[rideme]

[Guess who's ankle deep in koi pond, yelling right back up at him.]

Yeah! You going to listen or what!

[ignitethestars]

What's 'English?'

[iamtetsuo]

You don't know what English is?!

[ignitethestars]

If I did I wouldn't be asking now would I?
