◎third journey | video;
[ he's sitting in the oxygen gardens, a wooden pipe in his mouth and large white smoke-rings curling from the end of the pipe. there's an open book in his lap and there's a lingering weariness in his posture, despite how relaxed he seems.
still, when frodo speaks up, his voice is fond, light, moving his pipe away from his lips. ]
Where I come from, smoking pipeweed is considered an art. Making good smoke-rings like this--there's nothing quite like it.
[ frodo pauses; glances at his book then. ]
My dearest friend told me that he wondered if anything we've done would ever be put into 'great stories.'
"The stories that really mattered, that stayed with you." As a lad I spent most of my life reading about stories, learning them and I'd always had my favorites with my Uncle. He went on a many great adventures.
[ he smiles quietly ]
Sometimes stories can be..quite different than we imagine them to be when we begin them. The same could be said of adventures.
Do you have a story like that? One that's stayed with you. Perhaps something you knew as a child, or one you found in a book. Perhaps it isn't a story but a moment that you've shared and relived with others over and over again. I'd be glad to hear them.

he needs him. he needs sam with him, to keep him tethered to the ground when the burden threatens to take him farther away from it all than he's ever known before. for that and more. ]
It would be better for him if he would not follow me at all, but I know Sam. As I'm told time does not pass where we're from, I hold to the hope that he will be at my side when I return, though it's a selfish hope.
[ quietly ]
I will see him again.
Video
He blinks a few times before he can find his words.]
...What do you mean time doesn't pass where we're from?
Video
[ he notices that look ]
I imagine there are some waiting for you as well?
Video
...Yeah. I can't really skip out on 'em with no explanation, and, well... One of 'em sorta needs me to be around or else there'll be a lotta trouble.
Video
Video
Yeah, I will. Guess it can't hurt just to try.
Thanks, um--what was your name?

[It's hard to tell when you're in space. Maybe he should start making tally marks on the wall like they do in the movies.]
How about you?

Video
What do ya mean by "different"? Everything seems to drag on here, is that it?
[That's probably just Firo being impatient and bored.]

[A small but fundamental change is going to make adjusting even harder.]
