[ her shoulders tight, wings held close ]

This isn't what I was expecting.

Re: DISCUSSION

[purestdust]

Yes, I wasn't quite expecting this either. The laboratory setting is nice.

Re: DISCUSSION

[bluediligence]

You think so...? Ah! Because you like learning things?

Re: DISCUSSION

[purestdust]

[ he nods ]

It does put me at ease as well.

Re: DISCUSSION

[bluediligence]

It's cool that you've found something you like already. Maybe we should get a lab for the dorm!

Ah, but that can probably wait until after this ...

Re: DISCUSSION

[purestdust]

Caeli has agreed to buy one for me in exchange for some sparring. I'll be happy to show you once we get one.

[bluediligence]

Waaah! I'll be looking forward to it!

[pats her shoulder this is fine we're fine]

They like to keep things varied in some ways.

Re: DISCUSSION

[bluediligence]

[ smiles weakly ]

I'll keep that in mind. So, uhm! This game. Any thoughts?

Re: DISCUSSION

[1istheloneliest]

Our options are presented as fairly simple, which almost definitely means there's parts left out for us to find.

Re: DISCUSSION

[bluediligence]

In here, do you think? We could look around before we choose either way.

Re: DISCUSSION

[1istheloneliest]

We could, but in this case I think it'll be more like we make a choice and then it has consequences beyond simply answering a question.

Re: DISCUSSION

[bluediligence]

Huh ...

[ looks around ]

How can you tell the difference?

Re: DISCUSSION

[childeishly]

I can't say I had been thinking we'd be doing something like this either. [ dottore would fucken have a god damn field day with this. uuuugh. ]

[bluediligence]

They really can be anything at all, can't they ...

[childeishly]

It sure seems like it. [ he turns toward their little robot. ] What are you thinking as far as it's concerned?

[bluediligence]

Uhm, well.

If I was going to think about what makes me human, I'd look inside myself.

[childeishly]

...that's how I was looking at it too. What do I think defines me. My hopes, dreams, goals, aspirations, and all of that. I do think it's what's inside, though of course the outside has got to do with it too. This game isn't meant to be inside, but we've got to pick a side.

[bluediligence]

If it ... they? If they don't know what to look for in the first place, it might be tricky ...

But that's what we're here for, I guess? We can help.

Re: DISCUSSION

[protectshisown]

...worried you're gonna hit things?

[bluediligence]

Ah, no, it's just ...

My first game was a little.

[ she trails off there ]

[protectshisown]

[He reaches over and squeezes her shoulder.]

Its okay.

This looks like a free roam bad game if it is one and we're pretty good at those.

[bluediligence]

[ ahahahaHAHAHAHAHAHA ]

Oh, are you? That's good to know.

[ she! does not relax. but she does smile, kind of. ]

Let's do our best.

[protectshisown]

Yes.

Its a lot easier to avoid confrontation in these if you're careful.

We will. [Another squeeze. Its fine, this is fine, we got this!]

[He hopes, but he's gonna do his best.]

[bluediligence]

[ slightly uncomfortable, but she doesn't throw him off, it's fine this is fine they CAN do this it's FINE ]

Let's take a look around.
