[ Io's happy for the compliment, but he doesn't smile - this whole situation is just so bizarre. He follows Ryuu's gaze around the room, settling on each other student in turn.]
"Probably. Why don't you send a mass text, and find out?"
[Normally he'd add a warning about how expensive that might turn out to be on an unknown phone plan, but he's distracted. There were hundreds of unknown numbers in the contact list. How could anyone run an operation of that magnitude? Io hesitates, and then says:]
"Do you think some of the other students might have been kidnapped, too?"
Oh, a mass text. That's a good idea, too. [He starts playing around on the phone some more, both of his thumbs rapidly clicking about as he tries to familiarize himself with its workings.] I wonder if there's an easy way to do that on this phone...
[It takes him a few to figure it out, but he's finally got it ready to go. Taking Io's latter question into mind, he starts typing.]
Then, I'll ask that. "Are you a student here? Y/N. Have you been kidnapped? Y/N." Sound good?
"That sounds perfect." [ Io smiles. Ryuu always has been better at talking to people, and the message is straightforward enough that nobody would think it suspicious.]
"You aren't being charged for these texts, right?" [ There must be at least a hundred names in that contact list. Not that Io has any way of reimbursing Ryuu until they get home.]
it's such a good idea, I might steal it haha
