Yep. I’m still stuck away from a computer for an hour or three, or else you’d know for sure already.

I think it says something like this:
(1)
- Mmm, yeah, I really do want to get a VR set
(2)
- Could I afford it if I went with a 24-month installment plans?
(3)
- I really do hate to break it to you but...
(4)
- ... our 18-year old Air Conditioning Unit in the living room is broken
and because we both make equal use of it, we should both chip in (bit unknown kanjis used on the last line)

The only reader-added tag even now is "Inaba (un)Credit(able) Union".

18 years? Damn, those usually go out after 10 years for my family.

Unfortunate that the artist doesn't have a Patreon, I would be more than happy to contribute 10 bucks am month for a year or two

in twenty-eighteen, just wait and see. An enthralled reader or fan will straight-up donate a VIVE just to influence the story.
