Re: [Day 196, some time after the live]

[crossmyheartandhope]

Man... that long?

Re: [Day 196, some time after the live]

[unbr8kable]

Stuff takes time. And you already said you had the time, so...

Re: [Day 196, some time after the live]

[crossmyheartandhope]

Yeah. S'just weird not being able to mess around with anything, y'know?

I'm used to doing stuff with my hands.

Re: [Day 196, some time after the live]

[unbr8kable]

You're flexible. Use your feet.

Re: [Day 196, some time after the live]

[crossmyheartandhope]

Dude. I'm flexible but I ain't that flexible.

Re: [Day 196, some time after the live]

[unbr8kable]

Never know until you try.

Re: [Day 196, some time after the live]

[crossmyheartandhope]

What'm I supposed to be trying?

Re: [Day 196, some time after the live]

[unbr8kable]

Using your feet instead until your hands're healed up.

Re: [Day 196, some time after the live]

[crossmyheartandhope]

No, I mean, like - for what?

I can't use em for everything.

Re: [Day 196, some time after the live]

[unbr8kable]

Maybe you can. Be positive.

Re: [Day 196, some time after the live]

[crossmyheartandhope]

Dude. Weaving?

Re: [Day 196, some time after the live]

[unbr8kable]

Go slow. You had a whole live to get a pep talk. Are you really waiting for now?

Re: [Day 196, some time after the live]

[crossmyheartandhope]

Why, you offering?

Re: [Day 196, some time after the live]

[unbr8kable]

[Closes her eyes, thinking, and pulls up a wry smile]

...Sometimes you have to slow down and accept that things don't always go to plan. So--so you gotta do something different, no matter how much it hurts. ...But you're coordinated, and flexible, so this's a temporary setback. Once you get used to it, you'll be toe-sewing like a pro.

Re: [Day 196, some time after the live]

[crossmyheartandhope]

Man, you sure you ain't on the wrong team?

That was like pro-level motivational speaking.

Re: [Day 196, some time after the live]

[unbr8kable]

Maybe you been rubbing off on me...finally started picking some stuff up.

Re: [Day 196, some time after the live]

[crossmyheartandhope]

Fingers crossed it ain't the parts that suck.

Re: [Day 196, some time after the live]

[unbr8kable]

[Elbows into him, light]

There'd have to be some.

Re: [Day 196, some time after the live]

[crossmyheartandhope]

Yeah, don't I know it.

Re: [Day 196, some time after the live]

[unbr8kable]

[Sighs, then falls silent, perhaps staring up at the tent fabric above them, colored lanterns and other strings of decorations crisscrossing the way]

Re: [Day 196, some time after the live]

[crossmyheartandhope]

[He's quiet, for a long couple of minutes - maybe staring up at them, himself.]

[Then, finally:]

Hey... Nem?

Re: [Day 196, some time after the live]

[unbr8kable]

[Quiet for a beat. She doesn't turn to face him.]

...Yeah?

Re: [Day 196, some time after the live]

[crossmyheartandhope]

...would you do me a favor?

You can say no, if you want. But I been thinking about it a lot, and it's important.

Re: [Day 196, some time after the live]

[unbr8kable]

[Slow, a little wary]

What's up?

Re: [Day 196, some time after the live]

[crossmyheartandhope]

When your game stuff wears off... like, the not being able to say what you want stuff...

[He hesitate - starts to say something - then hesitates longer.]

Would you go talk to Requiem?
