[...It's not that bad of an idea, actually. If Adachi was putting up an act for the sake of fooling everyone else, then he would theoretically act like his true self around someone who theoretically knew the truth about him. And if that person was actually Kon, then he would see exactly how he acted. ]
I think I can do that, yeah. But I'd need to hang around the person for a bit, to get a hang of their mannerisms. So it'd take a bit of prep work, to make it believable.
[So it sounds like a plan, then, or maybe an option.]
Well, you're going to talk to Souji and the others anyway, right? Maybe they would be better candidates than me. Souji is pretty quiet sometimes... it might be easiest to mimic him.
[Not that Yosuke doesn't want to be the one to do it. At this point, one thing that's sure to pull a severe reaction out of Adachi is Yosuke's presence.]
After frowning for a moment, Kon goes ahead and changes the call to video again. Only this time, he's not acting like he usually does, like the real Kon. ]
C'mon, don't act like I can't be you. It's not some impossible feat or anything, right?
[It's not a perfect mimicry. Kon's only talked to Yosuke a few times, so he's only been able to get some of Yosuke's mannerisms. But there are likely enough similarities in posture and tonal inflection to at least seem similar enough to Yosuke to be a bit spooky.]
[The switch back to video grabs Yosuke's attention and he stares back at his phone a bit dumbstruck.]
...whoa. Hey, you're...
[They haven't been talking that long... and Kon and Yosuke have been face-to-face for, what, a total of five minutes or so? But even without Kon announcing what he was attempting to do, Yosuke could tell. This is the weirdest thing ever... but it's also immensely promising.]
You're actually pretty good at this, aren't you? Hah, I guess you'd have to be, but...
[...hey, he's smiling. Yosuke hadn't realized until now that Kon had been so serious and terse during this discussion. Yosuke was probably twice as bad, of course, all worry and contemplation.
But it's a nice thing to see! And it's such a familiar smile, too, painfully so.]
Hah, right. Duly noted.
Alright... so... when you hear of an opportunity to do this, where Ichigo and Orihime-san aren't around, let me know. Yeah?
Will do. I want to keep an eye on 'Hime for a bit, with Halloween coming up I'm sure the Techs are going to try something. But one that's over, there's bound to be time where those two aren't breathing down my neck.

Date: 2014-11-05 03:25 am (UTC)Well, I have to be. I had to pretend to be Ichigo for an entire month once, and messing up even one time could mean being found out.
All artificial souls can do it, technically, but I'm the best at it.
