[ Nozomi will assume that Rory and Crystal have been going through the usual channels on the warp band, and while she isn't the best at filtering things, she will certainly give it a try. That being said, it's likely easy to crack, but that doesn't mean she is going to be entirely clear about what her intentions are with this posting. ]

I hope our guests aren't bothering too many people around here. I didn't go to Caldera when we got the first distress signal, so I can assume things with this Rory guy went all right. I don't hear too many people grumbling, and no matter where they're from, they tried to smooth things over with Gigas and Caldera. We should treat them the way only Unionites can.

[ The tone of voice insinuating that people should interpret that however they want. Noncommittal responses are the best. ]

I wanna urge people to be careful out there, especially with all the reports from the rangers coming in. I've been given permission to sell some of the Tenma family's famous protective wards and charms just in case, and I'll be offering readings free of charge for anyone planning on heading out there. I can't guarantee 100 percent success, but my fortunes never lie. They might help.

...what am I supposed to do? I don't think I could ever be happy if I ended up hurting her.

[Nico doesn't realize how stupidly in love she sounds saying that]

[ It's pretty obvious, but that likely isn't the thing that Nico wants to hear at this point. ]

I'm sorry, I can't tell you. You have to decide for yourself.

Geez... some help you are.

[Yeah, now she's just frustrated]

...but you can still do the charm without her knowing, right?

[ Nozomi simply frowns. She isn't going to meddle in affairs like this, you should know that Nico. When the very real possibility exists that someone could get hurt, she isn't going to take responsibility. The other girl will need to figure it out on her own. ]

I can get you a charm for her, sure. Was there something you wanted it to ward against?

Um... I'm not really sure what might happen to her, so... anything dangerous, I guess?

I can do that. I'll have it ready for you to pick up in a day or two.

[ You're surprisingly sweet when you want to be, Nicocchi. ]

Eh? C, can't you like... deliver it to her as an anonymous gift or something?

[THE WHOLE POINT WAS FOR MAKI NOT TO KNOW IT'S FROM HER]

I can have Jinxie or someone deliver it, if that's what you want.

Would you please?

[MAKI MUST NEVER KNOW]

I'll see what I can do.

[ You can't say she doesn't do anything nice for you, Nicocchi. ]

Thank you!

[And you can't say she's never polite - even if it sort of seems like it pains her to say this]
