rolling along on this bandwagon, regarding a canon update and maybe an app?

[widowing]

I'll certainly be glad to be up to date on current events, but being excited for what's planned in the future doesn't mean that you should neglect the things that are going on now. It's going to be over two weeks before you can put those plans into effect, there's no sense in ignoring current events - or, for that matter, your other characters - because you're 'too excited' to concentrate on anything else.

As for the other place you're looking at, reread the last part of what I just said. Read it again. Read it one more time, and think about it before you put any serious thought into the idea. Figuring out how things work over there would also be advisable.

I don't know about that, Nat--maybe you have enough concentration for the both of you.

[widowing]

I can only share so much of it.

[arches]

Well, the less focused she is, the more you'll be left to yourself, right? And is that really a bad thing?

[widowing]

I don't necessarily mind that she's focused on me, but it seems unfair when there are other games and characters she's neglecting due to her excitement.

I can't say I'd mind a break, though.

[arches]

Breaks. _{( pfft. )}

Yeah, right. You think it's a coincidence they all got so interested after we saved the world and rode off into the sunset? They just can't let us be happy.

[widowing]

Not at all, but it's not as if there wasn't interest before this. It's just more...specific now.

[arches]

The way I see it, they just added a whole lot of fuel to a fire.

But maybe it'll burn out fast. Who knows.

[widowing]

I guess it remains to be seen.

What are your thoughts on the place?

[arches]

Pros: they're not dragging us away from what we need to do. Cons: they're gonna revel in it when shitty things happen to us.

But, you know, I'm pretty prepared to follow your lead. Whatever you decide.

[widowing]

And what happens after we've lived through what we need to do again? I'm not sure if that was ever explained.

[ d'awwww clint. ] Ultimately, I don't think it's me who's making the decision. But there are worse places we could be sent to.

[arches]

I have no clue. I guess we just... keep going, until we have something else to live through.

Oh, yeah? What's your other vacation home like, then?

[widowing]

You've seen Alien, right? Like that, but minus that kind of alien and more sci-fi/fantasy horrors thrown in.

[arches]

That sounds... fun. Do you at least get to shoot these horrors?

[widowing]

Sometimes. Some of them...aren't so easily dealt with.

[arches]

Sounds like a challenge.

[widowing]

[ an eyebrow raises. ]

One that interests you?

[arches]

I don't know about that--you tell me.

[widowing]

[ she considers for a moment. ]

It's certainly not boring.

[arches]

That's quite the recommendation. From you, at least.

[widowing]

It's more of an observation.

[arches]

I might've guessed.
