[oh you know]

Another Friday. [a beat.] Ah - Mizuki, are you alright? I meant to find you, but I was afraid Shoma would bite me if anybody got close.

[this is mostly a joke]

[psynchroneyes]

Oh, please, like he's got the balls to bite anybody.

[ She waves a hand, dismissively. ]

I'm—better. Not one-hundo-percent better, but those pods really work their magic.

[naeddre]

[a slightly amused look at the first part, but:]

... I'm glad. You terrified him coming out that way, you know.

[psynchroneyes]

So I've heard... [ augh. ] It's not an entrance I'll be doing a repeat performance of, trust me.

[naeddre]

You're a smart woman, I didn't think you would.

[psynchroneyes]

I think it's less smarts and more... Damn, did it feel like ass.

[naeddre]

Temenos told me a while ago that he agreed to go on his mission with Adrastea. Did Metis ask you?

[psynchroneyes]

Yeah... On Tuesday we were alerted about it, and we set off Wednesday.

[naeddre]

Then that is what I mean by being smart enough to not accept that offer again. [wryly.]

[psynchroneyes]

[ ... ]

Right. Yeah... Though, maybe there won't be a next time. We don't have much time left here.

[naeddre]

You're right. Only... hm, two? Three weeks?

[psynchroneyes]

Yep. Just two. And then... Man, I dunno, but I hope we can figure everything out by then.

[naeddre]

... The dead are trying their hardest to help. I think we might be able to, with that.

I just... don't know how. It's a waiting game.

[psynchroneyes]

Let me guess, they're not able to tell us how through the usual means?

[naeddre]

It's all censored. [she sighs.] I can't read half of it. And I'm not... good with technology.

[psynchroneyes]

Oh, maybe that's something I could help with, if you want.

[naeddre]

You can try, if you'd like, but I doubt you'll get further than me.

[and she'll show her part of a message.]

Wow, okay, that's... not even the least bit comprehensible. What the hell?

[naeddre]

[yea,]

It's better than it has been in the past, if you can believe it. At least this time there are letters.

[psynchroneyes]

Not that it narrows anything down. Sheesh... Someone out there really doesn't want us to get anything done here.

[naeddre]

The ship does not want us to leave, no. By any means necessary.

[psynchroneyes]

The ship itself. Are we considering it sentient now?

[naeddre]

After the vines shot out and pulled us back in, and with the flesh room, yes, I'm starting to think that it might be alive.

[psynchroneyes]

Well...

... Okay, point with the vines, but I didn't see that happen for myself.

[naeddre]

I did. [she got yoinked

a beat.]

Owner said that he saw us get grabbed, but could not tell what the tendrils were made of.
