[ifyoulive]

Yeah?

[throughbamboo]

Yeah. Did ya sleep last night, kid?

[ifyoulive]

In my dreams, maybe.

[throughbamboo]

Mmm, thought so.

[heads into the kitchen to get the tea]

[ifyoulive]

[ fOLLOWS HIM DON'T LEAVE HER STANDING AWKWARDLY IN THE MIDDLE OF FORGE ]

[throughbamboo]

[pouring them both cups, then nodding for her to sit]

Most of Forge is restin' or out, so no one'll bother us.

[ifyoulive]

You could have opened with that.

[ sits (poutily) ]

[throughbamboo]

[slowly takes a seat himself, putting the tea in front of her]

Even if they were here they wouldn't, honestly.

[ifyoulive]

Must be nice.

[throughbamboo]

Ehhh. They all got their projects goin', even after shit like that performance.

[ifyoulive]

And you?

[throughbamboo]

'M takin' it easy today.

[ifyoulive]

[ sips tea ]

Mmhm.

[throughbamboo]

I am. 'M just gonna go spend time with the Arias later, s'the only plans I got.

[ifyoulive]

I believe you.

I just don't know what to say except "this sucks".

[throughbamboo]

Yeah, it sucks.

This what got ya freaked? All this nonsense, or is it the vision too?

[ifyoulive]

The vision was... it was creepy, but if past me had an acting gig before she went and fucked up her memories, then good for her.

[ trying and failing to not sound bitter ]

Acidia freaks me out. Being stuck with a bunch of self-sacrificial lunatics scares the shit out of me.

[throughbamboo]

Hrmm. You'll get more of 'em the more ya win, so you'll find out what happens to her again.

. . . but mmm, s'scary if ya don't wanna do that yerself. I know Nettle ain't like that, but have ya talked to 'em about it?

[ifyoulive]

I really, really don't want to do that to myself, but they haven't asked me to, so we're good, right?

[throughbamboo]

Good until it comes up again.

That shit's stressful enough without y'all havin' to argue about that. Y'oughta have that discussion when ya can take the time for it.

[ifyoulive]

I hate it when you're right.

[throughbamboo]

I hear that a lot.

[ifyoulive]

River's here.

[throughbamboo]

Yeah. He's been here since we boarded.

1/2

[ifyoulive]

I thought he was dead.
