So since no one else is going to talk about it...

Let's do a vote. Show of hands. How many of you think we're all alone here? A whole planet of pretty woods, jut for us. And how many of you think that we can't be alone. Maybe there's some city out there. Too bad you can't leave the camp.

And how many of you think that we're, like, totally surrounded. I hear that's a thing. Because there's spears, and they're stealing from us. Blah, blah. Tell me something real. If there's someone out there? I'd like to get to them first. I'd like to think everyone would agree with me, but I'm sure I'd be wrong.

Actually, you know what I'd love? I'd love for them to come by and try to get at my stuff. Consider this an invitation.

...If you don't mind me asking, where were you before?

[axeyou]

Locked up in a cell.

Or do you mean like a country? Panem. The Capitol. I already know that means nothing to you.

[notyourutopian]

Well the cell part sounds familiar.

But yeah. The rest of it doesn't mean anything. Sorry.

[axeyou]

Like I said. I already knew it wouldn't mean anything.

So were you here before we crashed?

[notyourutopian]

Yes. Though only for a few months.

The ship at least felt like something familiar.

[axeyou]

Oh, come on. This? Is just a different kind of prison. Seen one, seen 'em all, you know?

[notyourutopian]

Yes, but at least we can see the sky.

[That meant a lot to her. More than she really knew how to explain.]

[axeyou]

Wow. Aren't you a cheap date.

The sky.

[notyourutopian]

If you spent your whole life looking at ceilings and and water, you'd be that way too.

[axeyou]

No, I don't think I would be.

[and let's not talk about water anymore thanks]

And it wasn't an insult. It's cute, that you're a cheap date.

[notyourutopian]

I'm not-

[She huffs.]

Don't think I'm any kind of date.

[This last part might have been muttered away from the comm. Eleanor is so not used to this kind of conversation.]

[axeyou]

[Muttered away or not, it was just audible enough to be heard. And commented on. (Of course.)]

Don't be stupid. Everybody is some kind. And you're cheap.

Like I said: it's cute.

[notyourutopian]

[The teen makes an unhappy sound in the back of her throat and then sucks in a breath and rolls her eyes.]

Anyway. If you really do want help when you get back...let me know.
