[probe]

Yeah, that happens. You can always try again later?

[shiftingwinds]

That's true! It seems like we'll be here a while, anyway...

[probe]

Yeah...but at the same time it's been a while, too. You must miss home and stuff.

[shiftingwinds]

...

[ahhh, yeah. her expression drops at that.]

Well, yes, but... [...] It's been longer for all of you, hasn't it?

[probe]

Time's weird for us. It's been a while, but at the same time that's not what matters to us right now.

[shiftingwinds]

...what is what matters to you now, then?

[probe]

Making sure you guys are doing things the right way, mostly.

[shiftingwinds]

... "the right way"?

[probe]

Indulging enough. That way.

[shiftingwinds]

...have we been?

[probe]

Some of you have been! But some of you are falling behind. Not that that's bad, it just means we'll all be here for longer.

[shiftingwinds]

...I don't suppose you can name names? Maybe they just need a little help.

[probe]

Hm...if you look around and think about the people you don't hear from too often? I'd start there.

[shiftingwinds]

I see... I'll keep that in mind.

[probe]

[there's a nod.]

Until then...[they shrug.] There isn't much else you can do besides that yet. Just keep doing what you've been doing.

[shiftingwinds]

...hopefully what we've been doing will be enough!

[probe]

We'll see! [but enough about that.]

What do you say? Wanna head to the airport and see what else we can find? [they were serious about matchie bracelets.]

[shiftingwinds]

[that "we'll see" is so ominous]

Oh! Right now? [she smiles] Sure, why not?

[probe]

[:)

but they reach for sqx's hand! the dog is still sitting on their shoulder.]

Come on.

[and we can handwave doing this if you want britt and just do another thread later!]

[shiftingwinds]

[fine by me!! i need more cute npc threads and this way we can keep moving right along]
