But you also can greet me without a smile. If that time comes. I'll still be there.

[ but, then softer, a little happier ]

It's good you'll be able to smile, though.

[She nods.] I know.

But, it's pretty hard for me. To not smile when it's meeting a friend.

Plus I'm pretty sure I've made a bunch of promises for a swim date.

I'll remind you of that.

[ then pauses ]

Before... I met Doom and Rage, I told you that I'd tell you what happened in here. Do you think I should share it all? Everything I experienced? I'm willing to, if you want me to tell you what happened.

[She's quiet for several moments.]

Yeah, ya probably should.

I'm kind of an info monger. If it involves me, I'd want to know everything that happened. I'm more likely to assume the worst anyway without knowing.

Then I'll tell you. I'll give you some time after this, since I'm sure this will... be a lot for you to take in. Do you think it'd be best for me to come find you or wait until I see you around?

[Considers.] When you see me around.

I usually need some time alone to sort out my own emotions. At least, that's what I'm used to, and this is gonna be a hell of a work over when I wake up.

But eventually, I'll find ya. Info monger and all. Just seeing ya once would probs tell me something happened with you.

I'll wait, then. I might need some time to recover, too.

...But you helped a lot along the way. So it won't be so hard.

[Nods.] And you'll have people with you. Sakura and....there's....

Ah, Rook, and Technic too? Well, Technic can be kinda dumb, depends on the day, but Rook is p awesome at the support thing. And there's someone else from your world too, in Kyriakos?

So you won't have to be alone for it either, if you do better with people.

Yeah. His name is Gull here, the guy from home.

[ he'll be the one looking at me with some major homo feelings, you'll know pretty quick ]

I don't know. If I do or not. I'm still figuring that out.

[My new OT3, you mean.]

[Reaching out to take his hand.] You'll figure it out. Just dun be afraid to ask for company if ya need it, okay?

[ . . . yeah. yeah, pretty much ]

I don't think I'll need to ask with Rook around.

[ doesn't sound... upset by that, but has resigned himself to it (and maybe might secretly be okay with it) ]

[Laughs.] He is pretty hard to resist, huh?

More like he keeps finding me. And holding my hands.

[ sighs ]

But he did help me a lot when I arrived.

[ so, there is some gratitude ]

[Grinning.] He is pretty tactile. I like it. Been 'round longer than me.

Mm. It's going to take some adjusting.

...yeah, it does.

[She squeezes his hand.]

I was really surprised when I touched people here. [Which might explain where the touch sensitivity came from, did I ever even alert you to that, sob, lost everything.] Kinda like an electrical shock.

But it's pretty awesome after a while.

I'll see about that. But I don't mind it, at least.

[ and he's learning that it can comfort others, too. which is good. not that he'll be great at initiating. but right now? he'll squeeze back ]

[You'll learn~]

[Especially with Rook and Roxy as friends, you're doomed.]

That's good too.

[ don't forget that manipulative shit Makoto and, let's be real, Rin is a shoujo princess that'll win him over, too ]

Maybe.

[ we'll see ]

[You are pretty doomed.]

[Giggling and then pulling away.]

[And splashing him.]

Well, at the very least, you'll have plenty of opportunity to swim, right~?

[ ah, the splash is nice, then splash back a bit, oh ho, a little play showing in there? ]

There is that.

[Giggling, and aww yeah, nothing like a little play. Party in the Hope room.]

Hopefully it'll warm up outside soon too. The Cove has fun underwater caves.

[ a naked party, even ]

Really...?

[ eyes sparkle hearing that ]

I saw the waterfall. I'd love to see more.

[Naked water party all day everyday.]

[Nods.] Yeah. I know a lot about what it's like underwater. [Because I had to dive for STUPID TEAMMATE'S MIRROR SHARDS.]

It's awesome!

[ rock it ]

We'll have to go sometime.

[ you'll have to be the better judge of when it's warm enough because this dumbass gets himself sit from wanting water, after all. and g-good job on your teammate ]
