eight. audio & spam. funnyman, gotta try to be something wonderful.

James Stark is in a coma.

[She sounds completely unmoved by this. Entirely. (She shouldn't have used his first name. He'd be upset.)]

[She almost hangs up, then:]

Does anyone want to spar?

warden filter

. . . What do you do? When this happens. How do you . . .

[Not go crazy. Not feel guilty.]

What do you do?

open spam } CES

[For anyone who wants to spar, Vin will be in the CES, having Clifford throw large objects into the air for her to fling coins at and shatter out of recognition. The air is full of falling ash, mist curling under her feet, but the trees and the land are green. She doesn't know what to make of it, and therefore doesn't think about it.]

You...

Move on, I suppose. You push to keep going until things are back to where they were.

Indefinitely.

[It's only half a question. She's pretty sure that's what he means. She just doesn't like it.]

If need be.

Could you do that?

I try not to encourage repression of emotion in other people. I'm. Hypocritical that way.

Then I should just be upset? That sounds terrible.

It's healthier than pretending feelings don't exist.

It's harder, though.

[let's bottle up our feelings together buddy it'll be great]

It is. But I think the eventual reward makes it worth it.

I'd like proof of that.

Pick out the most well-adjusted people on the Barge and ask them how they handle it when they're upset?

I thought you were one of them.

I'm not well-adjusted.

Well. You could be worse.

[ur welcome ned]

I can always be worse. Floods proved that months ago.

Mm.

I still think your advice is worth more than most people's.

Thank you. I...endeavor to assist.
