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.

Comments

[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.]

[endeavors]

Really? I used to live among a lot of trees when I was a kid. Not so much when I moved.

[foundafamily]

So you like 'em because it reminds you of your old place?

WOOPS

[endeavors]

... Yeah? Is that weird?

I saw nothing, nosiree!

[foundafamily]

No, I was just wonderin'. I guess it's weird that you could find something that reminds you of home here of all places.

[He means the last part as something like a joke.]

[endeavors]

I don't know if it's that weird. I mean - some people actually have been in a spaceship before, right?

[foundafamily]

I've heard of one person here... But I thought that was pretty weird by itself. Nobody where I'm from has been in one, as far as I know.

[endeavors]

We have spaceships where I'm from. But only a few get to be in them, so... it's not like I know any astronauts or anything.

[That would be pretty cool, if he did...]

[foundafamily]

You have stuff like this where you come from?

[endeavors]

Yeah, like... NASA. You've never heard of it?

[foundafamily]

Never. What is it?

[endeavors]

It's an organization that... deals with everything related to space, I guess. They've sent people to the moon.

[foundafamily]

Really?

[His eyes go almost saucer-wide in surprise. After he's had time to get over that, his look shifts to one of skepticism.]

Why?

[endeavors]

Well - [he has to admit, that reaction is a little funny,] They're scientists. You know how it goes. They're always trying to take the next step in... everything.
