If I get drunk, will the other person getting my memories get drunk too?

[He's. Probably already a bit touched by alcohol. Again. Someone needs to take his communicator away from him when he gets into these moods.]

Sorry. [Pff. That was a burp in the making.] It's... hard to deal with. I'm getting headaches. It's like everything's too sharp. Off-balance. I'm not sure how to describe it.

... I wonder what you're seeing. Whoever you are.

[He's... slightly worried about his secrets spilling all over the place, but. Not talking about them specifically is probably the safest bet.]

She's pretty, right? My wife. Her name's Carmo. I bet you would've loved her.

[foundafamily]

Who knows?

[Firo's assuming that everyone's pretty much fumbling around in the dark with this.]

I hope we're not that... "connected", or whatever the word is. What if the other person dies?

[endeavors]

That would be horrible. [oh no, don't talk about people dying.] I hope no one dies.

[foundafamily]

Yeah, me too, but I think it's somethin' we gotta expect in a place like this. Let's just hope nobody tries murder a way to keep somebody from seein' their memories.

[Now he's freaking himself out.]

Um, by the way, you didn't seem too worried about anybody seein' yours.

[He finds that pretty weird, and the unspoken question is "why?".]

[endeavors]

Jesus, that's - that's grim.

[he doesn't know how he didn't... think about it. But now he's worried.]

Seeing mine?

[He's slow today, sorry.]

[foundafamily]

[He smiles, but it doesn't reach his eyes.]

This whole place is grim.

Yeah, your memories. Aren't you worried at all?

[endeavors]

I'm - I'm not sure. I mean - it's not like I've done anything wrong with my life. I think.

(He just... has to hope that people don't see the wolf part.)

It's hard to be worried when you don't know what's being seen.

[foundafamily]

That's an weird way of thinkin' about it. If anything, I think that'd make most people more worried. Even if you haven't done anything wrong, not knowin' what's gotten out there isn't very pleasant.

[He laughs.]

And I find it hard to believe anyone's never done anything wrong.

[endeavors]

Well, it's... not like I've ever committed any crime.

(Hunting for and killing small animals doesn't count, does it...)

[foundafamily]

And no secrets or anything?

[He's still skeptical.]

[endeavors]

M - [he stops. Hiccup.] Maybe.

You don't think someone will use it against me...?

[foundafamily]

You never know with people. I suppose it depends how lucky you are. If the wrong person sees the wrong thing...

[He's not saying it to be mean, but is more thinking out loud.]

[endeavors]

Well... It's - it's not like they can bribe me here. I don't have any money.

[he's trying to sound humorous. It's better than being worried, right?]

[foundafamily]

True, but do you really think that'll stop some people?

[He's trying to be helpful. Really.]

[endeavors]

I hope so! [pause.] Are you trying to tell me something?

[foundafamily]

[He laughs.]

Nothin', except that you sound way too trusting.

[endeavors]

... Sounds like something my wife would say.

[foundafamily]

Your wife sounds smart. I imagine you make her worried.

[endeavors]

We... make each other worried? I mean - in a good way, I think.

[foundafamily]

I guess that's what family is, huh?

[He does worry about his family a lot, and Ennis especially--even if they're not actually dating or anything, he's sure it's similar.]

[endeavors]

Guess so! [he says so with an optimistic ring.] Won't have much to worry about up here.

[foundafamily]

[He's taken aback by how the guy doesn't sound too worried about that.]

...Yeah, I guess me too. It sucks.

[endeavors]

[a few drinks will do that to your common sense. Or just Andy's.]

You know what else sucks? Everything.

[there goes that optimism.]

[foundafamily]

[There's something he can agree with.]

No need to tell me that. The biggest perk about this place is that there's breathable air.

[endeavors]

... I like the gardens.

[foundafamily]

Yeah? How come? Even I saw a few trees back home.

[Okay, he thinks the garden is pretty cool, but it's not worth all this.]
