Hey, I know this is a kind of weird thing to say, but to all you newbies without common sense out there: Do not warn visitors about getting indebted to the carnival. I don't want to see anyone getting in trouble their first week, especially not anyone on my team. Got it?

Mm.

[ She's feeling a lot of conflicting things right now. She isn't sure what takes precedence. ]

A friend?

[dorkypantsuit]

Yeah. Something like that.


Why are you so curious?

[waitingforplayer2]

Sorry...

[ She'll shut up. ]

It's probably helpful.

[dorkypantsuit]

[He laughs.]

I don't mind, I'm just a little curious myself.

[waitingforplayer2]

That's why we ask questions, isn't it?

[ Which is what she's doing.

She lowers her gaze. ]

I don't know. It's nice, I guess. To see someone like you.

[dorkypantsuit]

We look pretty different if you ask me.

[Though he's guessing that isn't what she meant.]

[waitingforplayer2]

I guess I'll see in a year or two, right?

[dorkypantsuit]

[That gets another laugh.]

Guess so.

[He sighs, smiling.]

If anyone gives you trouble, come tell me, alright?

[waitingforplayer2]

[ She nods. ]

Um...

[ There's so many thoughts in her head but she doesn't know how to put them in order. So she shakes her head. ]

I will. [ Or, well. She'll try. ]

[dorkypantsuit]

Good.

[At least she knows he's there, even if she decides she doesn't need his help specifically. He smiles before his wings buzz to life and he takes to the air.]

Don't slack off just because I leave!

[waitingforplayer2]

I'm working!!

[ She raises her voice so he can hear her before he flies off -- and then gets back to work. ]
