Do you want to be permanently paired?

And-- I guess, do you know what you want to do when you get out?

[gamjam]

I THOUGHT I did. But now I'm not so sure.

Well...help Teddy regain a body again. But after that, I don't know.

[therushingsky]

What happened to Teddy's body?

And what's changed your mind?

[gamjam]

When he graduated, he didn't want to go back to his world. He said he wanted to come to mine, so he made a copy of himself and gave it to me to upload into a new body. I've been keeping it safe ever since.

Oh, uh. Well. It was more of a gradual thing, you know? Like, I don't think I could be someone's warden selflessly without thinking about what I wanted at the end of it. And that's not fair to the person I'd be helping.

[therushingsky]

I think-- I mean, okay, I think you're going to help people no matter what, but I think, if you were permanently paired? I think you're going to help someone so much, that they won't be worried about why you're doing it.

And-- maybe you're going to get someone who does need you to be their warden full time?

I mean, I'm not saying you need to do that, but I don't think you need to worry about it if it does happen.

[gamjam]

Well. Maybe. I mean, I'm okay with just helping out people like Teddy who already had someone. It's more of a supporting side character.

Oh! I forgot to tell you, I made some friends and we started a nerd dungeon game!

[therushingsky]

Aha-hah, that's great! Who are you playing it with?

And, you don't have to call it that y'know...

[gamjam]

Ford and Freeza! Oh, and Demona's the dungeon master. She's really great at it, sneaky and evil in ways I never would have guessed!

Sorry! It's already been written into my solid-state memory.
