Hey, as long as you're thinking about it, it can be as big or small as you want.

[stillnot]

... It would be nice to keep that rock they gave us. The cool looking one.

[reconnective]

That's a good start. I've been hanging on to mine, too. Goat told me they picked it out because it looked nice. [he's fond of goat for that reason.]

[stillnot]

It's pretty. I like it a lot.

It would be nice to... Put it in a room. [ ... dream big. ]

[reconnective]

Maybe on a shelf with space for other cool rocks? [dream bigger.]

[stillnot]

Yeah.

[ but in reality, the dream is this: having somewhere to stay. having a room to put things in - somewhere you can leave things safely and come back to them later. ]

I found this really cool one in a cave. Kind of looked like crystals.

[reconnective]

[they both know what the real dream is, but somehow it's safer not to say it out loud.]

Yeah? It'd probably look great next to the galaxy rock. Especially if it's a room where you can get a lot of sunlight.

[stillnot]

[ she nods. ]

Yep. So - that's my small dream.

[reconnective]

It's a nice one to have. [it's kind of sweet, actually.] I hope it comes true someday.

[stillnot]

... We'll see.

[ same answer she always gives aj. maybe. we'll see.

don't get your hopes up. ]

[reconnective]

Yeah. We will. [unfortunately he has enough hope for both of them. it's why he relaxes enough and shuts his eyes.] There's always time.

[horologia]

[ just sighs heavily. are you really a zombie apocalypse survivor.

maybe the world is less prone to selfish anarchy post apocalyptic conditions than expected, who knows. but honestly from what she knows of magical girl politics she doubts that somehow. ]

[horologia]

Closer, yes. The question is whether we can get to it before something unpredictable happens.

... but catastrophizing never helped anyone, I know.

[reconnective]

We'll have a better picture tomorrow. We can do the catastrophizing thing then. [a light smile follows.] Let's just try to relax for tonight.
