[And that's...at least moderately gentler than his texts usually are, even if it's brief; it's better than the usual urgent we need to talk or we have a problem or I need you to do something for me that usually come along with Tsukiyama's attempts at contact, anyway.]
You're aware that we're due for another one of those strange weekends with the temporary changes and individuals showing up out of nowhere, correct? Assuming that everything follows the usual schedule.
I've no doubt that we can keep everything under a reasonable amount of control. However, I'd be lying if I said I wasn't somewhat concerned about Kaneki-kun.
I'm not sure how to help him with that. Should someone tell him about the strange weekend?
[Banjou isn't sure about how well Kaneki and Tsukiyama are getting along, so he's well aware he might be volunteering himself. If he is, that's perfectly fine because Kaneki in distress isn't something he wants.
There's always the risk that someone is going to get hungry during one of these odd weeks.]
[Why do you think he texted you about it, Banjou-san...]
He knows it's something that happens; we've...discussed it a little, but if you want to talk to him about it I'm sure he'd appreciate that.
If something unfortunate happens during that weekend or it upsets him somehow, he's probably going to contact you. I doubt he'll want anything to do with me during that period of time, for obvious reasons.
Did Kaneki-kun ever say anything to you about Anteiku...? Not back before everything that happened with Aogiri Tree, but more recently, just before we came here - did he ever say anything about anything strange or suspicious happening there, or about...I don't know, some sort of problem that may have arisen?
She mentioned something about Anteku to me the other day and I found it a little strange, that's all. It's probably nothing; I just found it odd that they should come up, given that none of us have really associated with them for months now.
[...It's occurred to him, too, in some form or another.]
I'll be blunt and say that something is going to happen there eventually, and it's not anything good.
But I have no reason to think that we were involved - that is to say, it wasn't our doing. She did make it sound as though I knew details about...something or other, but I wouldn't tell her what those details were.

I don't suppose you have a moment.

I'm here.
What do you want to discuss?

It wouldn't be fair for him to wake up as a ghoul again without warning, not after he's spent so long as a human.
no subject
[...]
Do you ever wonder if he would approve of what we're doing? If he were to suddenly remember everything, do you think he would be all right with it?
[The question is a bit sudden, but he can't say he cares too much about that; it's kind of been digging at him a bit, lately.]
no subject
[Well that's a question he didn't see coming.]
I want to hope he would. He'd understand, I'm sure of it.
I'm sure he'd understand what we're doing.
no subject
I'd like to think that too, though.
no subject
I'll make sure he knows what's going to happen. At least he'll be prepared.
no subject
...I do have something else to ask you, though I don't know if you'll have any more answers than I do.
no subject
Of course. I can't promise answers, but ask away.
no subject
no subject
I don't think so. I would have remembered something like that coming up.
[There's a long pause before he sends a question.]
Does this have anything to do with that girl who showed up recently?
no subject
Why? Did she say something to you?

no subject
I'm sure it's nothing to worry about.
[But then again, Kaneki is from months before them, so maybe...
No. He doesn't want to think about that right now.]

no subject
There's nothing we can do about it now, is there?
no subject
It's just one of those things that's going to irritate me; forget I said anything.
no subject
It won't help us if we ever go back without our memories, but maybe there's a way to prepare for whatever happens anyway.
I'm not sure.
[It's not meant to be comforting, exactly, but it sounds better than "we're screwed."]
no subject
It's an attack against the 20th Ward, centered on Anteiku.
It's going to be carried out by the CCG. Not Aogiri.
