actually natori has some kind of tracking talisman on matoba at all times. that's how he knew where to abduct matoba from for Operation: Kitty Cat City. matoba fully knows about it; it's why he wasn't at all surprised to find a paper doll in natsume's hair after the mask youkai debacle (matoba internally as he watched it fly away: classic mother hen shuuichi-san momence 🥰). because this is matoba "boundaries? what are those? can you eat them?" seiji we're talking about, he's not bothered by this "violation" of his "privacy"; rather, he finds it fittingly clingy (it is, after all, only right that natori should be keeping tabs on him obsessively). sometimes the talisman gets confused and sticks to yesterday's outfit, so he always checks to make sure he has it on the way out the door (his pocket patdown is "keys, lighter, wallet, exorcism supplies, shuuichi-san's cute lil tracker he thinks i don't know about <3"). i wouldn't be surprised if he's figured out how to uno reverse it and now uses it to track natori's location as well. this may not technically be canon but it is probably all 100% true in an important way that transcends canon, we just never hear about it because it isn't relevant to natsume's journey 😌

I swear to God the worst thing about writing Heathers fanfic is them not having mobile phones - I spend so much time having to have them talk face to face or be in their house to answer their landline when just a quick text would have sufficed.

It really throws me when I read something harringrove and they mention texting or whatever and I’m like what????? In the 80s?????? And then I’m like okay it’s an modern AU but maybe SAY THAT???!? At the beginning???
Just sayin.
Create your own world, do what you want but maybe tell me the rules first so I’m not completely pulled out of the story by a non-canon technology or whatever.

1980s Motorola Cell Phone Default Replacement by @2fingerswhiskeysims
Do you have 1980s sims who are rich? If so, 2fingerswhiskey converted sewersims’ excellent 1980s Motorola DynaTac (1983, specifically) cell phone for them to use and show off to all their friends in Pleasantview. Cell phones were very expensive (and gigantic) at the time so it was rare to own one. Plus, the coverage could vary widely based on the type of antenna you had.
This is a default replacement, so you can only have one default replacement for the cell phone at a time, and you must have the University EP for this to work. Check out 2FW’s post for all the details.
