"Heeeeeeeeyo, Toko! How's the chat thing going?"
"Hey Mina! It's pretty fun so far. The guy I'm talking to is really weird."
"How so?"
"Like, he doesn't know what Netflix and chill is. The robots there aren't doing their jobs."
"Jeezus, okay but, at least you didn't get matched with a potato farmer???"
"True. How's that going, btw?"
"I blocked him."
"Wow."
"Did he ever say anything to you?"
"Something about fertilizer, idk. It was weird. And demons?"
"Demons?? I'm confused, does he know the guy I'm talking to? Maybe they're friends."
"Idk. So, I'm talking to a new guy now. Actually like three other people. Some girl contacted me saying she's like a witch or something from feudal Japan. This shit is wicked."
"Not as wicked as talking to a demon slayer."
"I suppose not."
"I also think he's like an assassin, but whatevs."
"Is he hot?"
"Uh...I don't know."
"Well, ASK! What do you guys even talk about?"
"You know, this and that..."
"Uh huh. Okay. I gotta go, bye."
