Ah... yes, based on what I heard, I think you saw what we cannot, on this side.
[she holds onto him a little more tightly.]
But I agree. I will take this time to enjoy what I have. [and what she has is alive friends!] ... Will you tell me what you've been up to since I've seen you last?
[ having alive friends is so great until i look at how full the cr chart is. dies again. ]

[ it's been a long time since he could talk to any of them without filters or secrets or the deadline of a single night over their heads. ]
The last few weeks... I think we dedicated quite a lot of our time to figuring out what was going on. Learning what we could. Some of us went on more of those—misadventures through the rifts! But I'm sure you knew already that we did. [ mixed deda and living cyoas ] We also got stuck in an "Applebee's," and had a bit too much fun at the rat king's palace... It has been a journey of keeping each other's spirits up while also trying to get some work done. We mostly succeeded!
[ even if there's trauma and stuff they're doing okay relatively speaking ]
[ SO MUCH HAS HAPPENED me trying to summarize and experiencing memloss oocly ]
Yes, neither of them turned out very well. But it's all behind us! [ no cyoa is ever any good. just the way the cookie crumbles. ] Applebee's is a restaurant! It has a rat waitstaff and very middling appetizers. For some reason we spent a lot of time there? ...I don't know? I think we were bored. People would curse you all from time to time too, for [ enrichment ] morale.

I can try.
[so much has happened, but she's happy to talk with him as long as she can.]
... I did hear about the rifts. Viktor told me about his, and Owner told me about yours. [...] I am not sure what an Applebee's is.
