Do you like it? [Sitting down in midair. Like a wizard.]

From:

thevoidsdarkhorse

...

[May have just snatched it up and started inhaling it. '-']

From:

fuhrinkaed

[I'll just continue having a seat, then.]

You're a fan, huh?

From:

thevoidsdarkhorse

M....more....

[Stuttering, stammering, forcing out the word.]

From:

fuhrinkaed

[Poff. There is another.]

So... You're lonely, right?

From:

thevoidsdarkhorse

[Eating.]

[Still...rather ravenously.]

[She pauses and shakes her head.]

From:

fuhrinkaed

[Making more as necessary.]

So then, how do you feel?

From:

thevoidsdarkhorse

....

[Doesn't answer, just keeps....eating.]

From:

fuhrinkaed

I grew up alone, too. [I'll have a snowcone myself.]

It's not easy, huh.

From:

thevoidsdarkhorse

... [She pauses in her eating, but then keeps going.]

[Yes...yes it's not easy at all.]

From:

fuhrinkaed

Don't eat too fast, or you might get brain freeze...

[He leans back, resting his elbow on a convenient pumpkin.]

From:

thevoidsdarkhorse

[She looks up, giving him a questioning look.]

[What is brain freeze?]

[And pumpkins with their so helpful thoughts.]

[Don't give too much, they don't have self control, you're the only one who can watch the moderation. There's only so much you can get at once, but always have a reserve for the bad times. Careful, careful, careful, you're the only one who can do this, you're all alone in this effort.]

From:

fuhrinkaed

[..]

You reserve the pumpkins, right? What for?

From:

thevoidsdarkhorse

....

[She raises an eyebrow. Eats the rest of the snowcone. Then makes motions because easier to talk like Carapacians.]

[How can a wizard not know? Info is important and it's a pretty big problem?"

From:

fuhrinkaed

Divination's never been a specialty of mine... but if I had to guess... something to do with being just about the last person on earth and also there being other people to feed?

[mindypowers go what other info do I have..??]

From:

thevoidsdarkhorse

.....

"Are you from the past?"

[There is a total imbalance in food. As in there is absolutely no possible way to fish enough to feed the millions of Carapacians on this island. But there is balance in the pumpkins because Roxy knows you can't just keep porting them in without draining her source dry.]

[It may also be easier to notice that Roxy is very much skin and bones right now. At least by the time she went into Kyriakos, she had about half a year of Jane helping her gain weight.]

From:

fuhrinkaed

I'm from a different universe entirely. Got here by magic and all that.

...And you're in charge of feeding everyone, but there isn't anything near enough.

From:

thevoidsdarkhorse

[There's a sad look on her face and she's moving to hide behind the telescope again.]

From:

fuhrinkaed

Come on... cheer up. It's going to get better, y'know?

From:

thevoidsdarkhorse

[Scoffing sound.]

From:

fuhrinkaed

You scoff now, but it's totally true.

From:

thevoidsdarkhorse

H....h...ow?

From:

fuhrinkaed

Someday in the future, you're going to hang out with friends. Really close friends, who you'll like a lot.

Also, eventually, we'll hang out and get to be super good... friends. So you'll have a close friend who's a wizard, too.

So, even if it's bad, there's something to look forward to. There always is.
