[ The message begins with a clearing of the throat before a smooth voice filters through the ocular network; that of the very distinctive cadence of Dr. Ratio. He speaks calmly and lower than he usually does in an attempt to evoke a soothing tone that is not present in his usual manner of speech. ]
Given recent circumstances, I imagine many of you may be finding it difficult to rest and relax. You cannot be faulted for that; as of late, I have often found myself plagued with an active mind during the night, when I ought to be asleep. However, it is important to allow your body and mind to recuperate from injury and exertion. When one's body is exhausted, so too is the mind sluggish, and vice versa. Baths are quite effective at soothing the body and clearing the mind. I encourage you to make frequent use of the spa's public bath once we return to base.
[ There's a pause here and then another clearing of the throat—one that sounds like a cover up for embarrassment. ]
But I digress. The purpose of this message was not to provide a lecture on self-care.
I... have been told by students before that my voice has a particularly pleasing quality that is easy on the ears. A few have been audacious enough to inform me that they use my lesson recordings to put themselves to sleep. In light of that... I would like to offer my voice to be used as a sleeping aid for any who would benefit from it.
I have attached a link to several of the lesson recordings I have created since my arrival on this planet.
[ Anyone who is curious enough to peruse the offerings will find neatly named audio files for an undergraduate semester's worth of several subjects, ranging from math to physics to biology, among more. There's almost 50 files in total, and each one of them comes with a text transcription accompanying it. ]
You may utilize these as you desire, though I do hope you find an interest in the subject itself. There is never a better moment than now to start learning something new.
In addition, I am open to recording new material if you find none of these are relaxing to listen to. And if you desire a conversational partner to debate with on topics unrelated to what weighs on your mind, I am happy to fulfill that role.
As always, if you have any questions, you may ask me at any time, provided that you have thought carefully and determined the answer to be worthwhile to know.

That is information you could have easily searched up yourself. For what reason haven't you?
Private
You want the honest answer? I haven't been able to work up the nerve.
Kansen are made from the memories of the ships from that conflict, mostly, we know everything about our "life" as the ship. But that timeline doesn't exist for us, we broke out of its cycle.
[ Not before reenacting a good deal of it. Midway 2 Electric Boogaloo really sucked... ]
The Sakura Empire isn't the Empire of Japan, sure, but I still feel attached to the people of this land the way I would my own. I'm not sure I would like what I found, regardless of who the victors were.
My dear Kaga is becoming so vulnerable. Don't break her heart now, Ratio-san~
Nee-sama if you keep this up I'm gong to block you.
I'm just having some fun.
no subject
[ A blunt statement of the facts, rather than any sort of accusation, though it can certainly be read that way. ]
I doubt my retelling of the events will help you sleep.
[ Which, if she remembers at all, was the whole point of this exercise. ]
no subject
But without kansen to end wars, what did mankind do to itself? It is not as if the state of this world speaks well to begin with.
I'll lose more sleep wondering over what you've found out. Apologies, but I've put you in a position where staying quiet just adds to my problem.
Besides it's as you said, you have a lovely voice~
!! USER HAS BEEN BLOCKED !!
I won't push you, Doctor. If you'd rather we can discuss it over tea some time.
[ How she managed to block a fragment of her own damn mind? Who knows! She's not okay in the head right now
no subject
I would not be opposed to that.
[ It's odd, how his previous animosity for Kaga has simmered down. While he still does not appreciate the overt threat she made against Aventurine, she seemed genuinely apologetic about it. He can give her a chance to redeem herself in his eyes, at least. They are to work together as allies on the battlefield, anyhow. He would rather know if he can trust her with his back. And Aventurine's back too, if he must. ]
