Listen, I need some information. I was here about a month ago, when there were a lot of people new people here who I guess left. I need to know if anyone else who was here then came back.

And I'm looking for a woman. With green hair, has a thing for metal, goes by Polaris.

If you can help me out, I owe you one.

Comments

[brightboy]

Yeah, I think so. You know, I never had a pet so maybe that has something to do with it.

[ferrokinetically]

Something tells me it really doesn't.

[brightboy]

Yeah, probably not.

[ferrokinetically]

Sometimes people just want family and they'll take any they can get.

[brightboy]

Yeah, sometimes.

[He doesn't say anything for a moment.]

That's not what happened with you, is it?

[ferrokinetically]

Maybe. I don't know. I made a family from what I could.

[brightboy]

[Honestly, so had he, and for worse sometimes rather than better. Not the Underground, though. They'd never been a mistake.]

...you think we were a mistake?

[ferrokinetically]

Didn't say that, did I?

[brightboy]

...No, but...things have been kind of...touch and go recently, you know?

[ferrokinetically]

Yeah, everything got super fucked up. And complicated. Still is, I guess.

[brightboy]

Things have been getting really fucked up for a while, babe. We just...we'll get through this. I know we will.

[We have to. For our family.]
