[There were a lot of fucked up things the Phantom Thieves did on hunches and circumstantial evidence, but it's kind of hard to explain that the majority of their suspicions were confirmed by plugging into the subconscious psyches of their victims. Another story for another time, though. Eventually, Ryuji's likely to start giving away details of his involvement in that naturally. Idiot has no tact, sometimes.

And just as the other arrives on the scene, Ryuji was laying out some of the pool nets and trying to figure out how to take on this massive undertaking. It definitely wasn't something that could be done in one session, but maybe they can make a dent. He smiles when he hears Sakamoto!]

Yo, you can call me Ryuji. I don't really care about formalities, but... whatever makes ya comfortable.

[He would say that he didn't care about it out in space, but even back home in Tokyo it wasn't that much of a deal either. What a rebel.]

Inviting you? Nah, this is punishment.

[He gives a thumbs up.

Punishment comes in a lot of different forms, huh.]
