Thank you, Rhys.

I'll get in touch with Kepler.

[A long pause.]

...Gortys asked me to pass on a message, as well. She - misses you.

[therushingsky]

Shit--

Is she lonely? Am I just--

[No, you know what, no point in unloading right now.]

Thanks for telling me, Man.

...Apparently I'm her best friend. I've chosen to take that position seriously.

[levity?? mayhap??]

I believe she's still adjusting from being constantly at close quarters with other people.

[therushingsky]

Yeah.

It's weird, back home we were all just on the same ride at the same time, and everything was always happening at such a breakneck speed, I barely felt like I was responsible for keeping myself alive.

Here-- If I'm not worried about six people killing themselves or each other, then it's a slow day. I don't know if it leaves room for being much of a friend.

[biocomposer]

Maybe...

Maybe you two need to discuss openly what your friendship looks like, in a new environment.

[therushingsky]

Yeah, maybe.

I'll talk to her. We used to do-- like, a lot of road tripp-y stuff, when we lived in the caravan. Tabletop games, shooting at billboards, stuff like that. Maybe we could resurrect something like that.

[biocomposer]

Mm.

I stayed there with her for a few days. I can imagine how it would foster that kind of activity.
