It's Banjou. Leave a message and I'll get back to you as soon as I can.
[It's taken him a while to work out whether he wants to actually say anything to Banjou or not, regarding a few things he's heard; the usual strategy of "don't say a damn thing and let him work it out on his own" has been working splendidly, after all, and he sees no reason to fuss with it if it works.
Eventually, however...]
We need to talk. As soon as possible, s'il vous plait.

[You know, just the fact that Tsukiyama would tell him they need to talk is enough to get Banjou's attention, because he's gotten used to ignoring... whatever is going on between the two of them most days.]
What about?
[Because there are many different things he can think of at the present moment.]

[Many different things indeed. Let's get the most pressing out of the way first for once in his otherwise utterly unproductive life, shall we?]
I've received some information regarding what this charming place likes to do to people. Namely, the fact that it seems to run on a schedule, and we're due for something that may or may not be terribly pleasant for us in particular.
Any physical changes we may experience sometime in the next short while are temporary.

That's precisely what I'm saying.
Since we've been sustaining ourselves on human food here, that's either going to be of no concern whatsoever - since we have been sustaining ourselves at all - or it's going to be more of a concern than it has any right to be.

[This is when both being a pacifist and a weak ghoul come back to haunt Banjou.]
I'm going to hope there isn't any kind of reset.
[If it's only going to be for a couple days, they should be fine, right? He's not interested in hurting any of the people here, accidentally or otherwise.]
I'm not going to ask how you found this out. Is that the only thing that's going to happen?

We can sustain ourselves without hunting if we absolutely need to. I'll elaborate more later, should the need arise, but let's hope for the best, non? There's no sense in being needlessly paranoid.
[...He also figures you won't like the method, but. Oh well!
That said, there's a question there that he doesn't particularly like, and it takes him a moment to respond; he isn't sure why it's digging at him a little, but the fact is that it...is. Nngh.]
I've also been told that other people show up here during those few days - and it is only for a few days, since those people are as temporary as the physical changes, as far as this place is concerned.
Those other people aren't random. They're often ones that are close to us in some way.

[Banjou, he is putting so much effort into not being an asshole to you right now.]
That's what I'm thinking.
That's what I'm thinking.
It would, and I would quite prefer it if things went as well as possible if he does come here.
As I've told you, he wasn't well when I left him last.
[He imagines the So let's not fuck this up, Banjou-san is implied.]

[And that's...unexpected, actually; it's not exactly common that that sort of sentiment should be expressed so openly when they talk, usually they just sort of agree to barely tolerate each other and that is literally the extent of it.
...Give him a moment because what the hell, sir.]
Well, it would be for the best if the alliance didn't dissolve, obviously.
[...NO REALLY HOW DOES HE...RESPOND TO THAT
he's not stupid, he's fairly certain you guys want him...not there
jesus he's obviously overthinking this or something
but dropping logic bombs on him like that isn't fair, asshole]

[It's partially Kaneki being angry at Tsukiyama would be inconvenient once he's left and partially because it would end with Kaneki angry at both of them and that's just... no good.
Even if he would rather have Tsukiyama go away.]
Exactly. Especially if he ever shows up here permanently.
[Do you know how mad he'd be?
Let's not piss off Kaneki.]

[That is an entirely valid point in that it would be inconvenient in a lot of ways once Kaneki left - since really, you would have to put up with whatever Tsukiyama decided to do as a result of Kaneki being angry with him, and knowing Tsukiyama it would be the exact polar opposite of pretty, rational, sane, or dignified.
Just the same, the lack of self-awareness is strong with this one, so he's just going to try to shake off the general confusion and move on with his life.]
I have no interest in seeing this go badly, Banjou-san.
[...]
You don't have to be concerned about any attempts to take advantage of having our physical bodies restored on my part, either. Regardless of Kaneki-kun gracing us with his presence or not.

[...no offense, but he's pretty sure he would have to be concerned about it, but Banjou isn't an idiot. He's well aware of the fact that he couldn't do anything if Tsukiyama decided he wanted to test out his kagune again.
At the same time, the assurance means something to him. He doesn't know what, so he's going to shove it aside for now.]
We shouldn't have any problems if it's just for a few days.
[Then again hunger problems have never been why Tsukiyama does anything.
He tried.]

[...They're both entirely aware of the fact that hunger problems are never why Tsukiyama does anything, and as such that bit of reassurance Banjou is giving him is a little pointless.
At the same time, really...]
Speaking of things that disinterest me, outing myself in front of anyone isn't high on my list of priorities.
Believe it or not, I do know better.
