[Locked to Friends -- 99.5% Unhackable]

Well, it seems the the space issue has resolved itself. We've found a house that, even if more people from back home do show up, we'll have plenty of room in. [Although it's Tager she's mainly worried about; house or no, he would still take up a huge amount of space.]

Hopefully this will solve our issue with New Feathers appearing in the tub... Although I suppose I'll find out once the incoming numbers pick up again soon.

So, from now on, I'll be living in House 48. I think I might fix up a housewarming dinner later on this week, if anyone is interested.

[Locked to Bang]

[Her tone is pleasant, but there's a slightly dangerous undercurrent to it. Somebody's looking for answers.] Bang? Is there any chance I could speak with you for a moment?

...Please tell me you just made that up.

Not as romantic as you expected?

That's... not quite it.

Although I suppose it explains quite a lot.

Like how a woman like Lisa managed to land a stud like me?

Now, now, don't let your ego get the best of you, Mr. Goroh~

It's never been a problem in the past.

Somehow, I find that a little hard to believe.

You can't be an F-ZERO pilot without an ego to go with it.

[Soft laugh.] I'll have to take your word for it.

Hm. You don't have any big cities in your world, right?

Actually, it's just the opposite. Most of the world is uninhabitable, so everyone is crowded together into very large, multi-level cities wherever it's safe enough to live. It's just that the different levels of the cities are treated like different towns. [Don't get her started, it'll be a whole Teach Me Miss Litchi episode.]

Why do you ask?

Ah. Well, I was gonna make a point. See, you don't get more dangerous a sport than F-ZERO. Except for Poripotion Roulette, where all but one round in the pistol is loaded, but that's not the point. F-ZERO is a deadly sport, but there ain't more than fifty consistent racers. Yet Mute City has a population of over a billion people.

[Over a billion... Good lord. The crowding has to be terrible.]

...The more you tell me about these races of yours, the more I worry about you, you know.

Heh. Ever heard of a place called New Jersey?

I'm afraid I'm a little hazy on finer details, but yes. Why?

It's on the outskirts of Mute City. People used to live there once upon a time, now they call the place Lightning. One big wasteland of pollution and continuous electric storms. The place is known for two things. The fact it produces enough power to export to other planets... and that we F-Zero racers get to dodge lightning bolts on the course that runs through there.

...Please don't tell me these things.

I figured you'd like hearing about stuff from my version of Earth.

It's fascinating the differences between our versions of home, but... I really do worry about everyone's safety.

Oi, Litchi. One of these days we'll get you to unwind without a bottle of liquor in your hand.

[Soft sigh.] You know, I suppose I could use a day or two off... It's all been so hectic lately.

That's what I'm talking about. Luceti will be just fine without Dr. Faye-Ling around for a few days.

With the way things have been lately, I'm not sure I can afford to take a break quite yet, though... [Because WHAT IF SOMEBODY GETS HURT?]

You're not the only doctor around here. People can get patched up without going to you. [Goroh managed it, after all.]

[Small sigh.] ...Yes, I know. I suppose I'm just not used to being able to take any time off.
