Fan: So I was DMing my friend on Instagram and couldn't think of a word. Does that ever happen to you?

💛: What's DMing on instagram? What's DM?
Itabashi-san: Direct message
💛: What's that?
I: Privately messaging the person
💛: Oh. You can't just text them?
I: Well you can say that about any SNS
💛: Oh so you can DM via your account with someone you don't have contact info for
I: I think many people do that nowadays
💛: What an interesting time to be alive. Do you do that?
I: I have an account but I only use it to look at things
Fan: I often imagine what 💛 will say when he reads my fanmail but haven't had mine read yet. What should I do to have it read?

I: Congratulations. It was read.
💛: Thank you
I: I'm saying it to her
💛: Oh what? I thought I did something so I said thank you just in case.

😅😂
💛: What to do to have fanmail read?
I: If we say, then everyone will know
💛: Oh there's a trick?
I: Yes. Okay here's just one. It can't be long
💛: Ohh
I: Of course long fanmail is fine and we do read it but if it's too long, it's hard to read on air. There's a perfect length
💛: So too short is not good?
I: Well some short ones are funny. Like the one about the difference between ghosts & monsters
💛: Was there such a thing?
I: You were so upset about it!
💛: Hmm is that so? Well you can look up anything nowadays.
💛: Ppl think about how to get picked
I: There's luck involved
💛: I think it's mostly luck
I: Everyone sends such good fanmail
💛: When I is in a good mood
I: My condition can't be the factor
💛: Like while drinking a little
I: Of course not! I don't drink on the job. Not funny.
💛: I guess it really depends on the person
I: But we have 💛 look through the unpicked ones too
💛: But in the end, it's Kudo-kun. Even if I says this one, K says nope can't be read on air
I: Don't give him away. He's scary
💛: He's so strict
[K protesting in the background😂]
Fan likes to watch water drip from her fingertips. Is there anything 💛 always does in the shower?

💛: Shampoo
I: Oh me too
💛: Right? You feel like you have to since you got in the shower
I: Can't overlook it

[OMG I love how Itabashi-san joins in on Nino's sarcasm more 😂]
💛: I also take a bath
I: I don't
💛: There's a lot of ppl that don't
I: I know it's better if you do but I just take a shower esp in summer
(💛 asks K who says baths are too much work)
💛: K must be tired. Ppl who say baths are too much work are the ones that should take a bath
I: Or go to an onsen. No one only showers at an onsen
💛: True. Onsen must have good benefits. Plus there's some in the city right? Japan must be a onsen powerhouse. This (COVID-19) situation makes you reexamine where you live
I: Not just onsen but what you can do nearby
Fan: When 💛 explained the kanji for his name, I remembered my teacher who also has 也 in her name but no one understood her explanation until she said "nari as in Ninomiya Kazunari"

💛: She gets the bandana prize this week
I: You already decided? 😂

💛 (reading other fan suggestions on how to explain "nari"): I could say 他 without 人偏 (person radical: 亻). The right side of 地 in 地球 (chikyu - earth). The right side of 池 (ike - pond). I guess these are good ways to explain it! Everyone was struggling with this, I guess.
I: But there's Ninomiya Kazunari
💛: I know! That's the best one. I was just checking the other options. The next best one after Ninomiya Kazunari is 地球 (earth)
I: The scale is so big
💛: Yup. This girl gets the bandana
