"There were some movies near the computers, I think. You could go look, I think it's too close to the people for me."

"I don't feel a huge rush, but maybe sometime."

Permalink

"It's close to the people I was going to show you."

Permalink

"Oh, okay. Do you want to split up when we meet them?"

Permalink

"Yeah. I'll draw you a map when we get close and meet you afterward."

Permalink

"That works. Thanks."

Permalink

"Ready to go?"

Permalink

"I think so, yeah."

Tromp tromp tromp. She plays wikipedia readings as they go, hitting 'random article' at the end of each one until it gives her something passably interesting.

September seems to have attention span problems when listening to something, and keeps missing large chunks and needing it rewound, but does seem to enjoy the information.

Permalink

Rescue doesn't seem to mind the repetition; she doesn't seem to be paying much attention to it anyway.

She calls for another break after a couple hours. "Do you want lunch?"

Permalink

"Yeah. I get hungry pretty easily..."

Permalink

This gets a very concerned face, briefly, before she zones out to listen for food again, and again she gives the other girl first pick of what appears.

"I will always make food if you ask me to. It's okay to do that."

Permalink

"Alright! There were some weird rules around food in Fairyland - here it's just listening for stuff?"

Permalink

She nods. "Yeah."

"I don't know if the people have rules but I don't."

Permalink

"But their rules aren't, like, if you eat even a single seed you'll be bound to return every summer, forever, type deal."

Permalink

"I don't know." "I don't know anything about magic rules."

Permalink

"This doesn't seem super like Fairyland so far? So I bet it doesn't have fairy rules."

Permalink

This doesn't seem very reassuring, but, "okay," she taps, and then puzzles over the phone for another minute before coming up with "ask them about it when we get there, please?"

Permalink

"Yeah, I will. Asking about the rules isn't usually dangerous."

Permalink

"That's good."

Permalink

"I think I've got a pretty wide risk tolerance, too? Wouldn't have gone adventuring if I didn't... So I'm alright even if the rules are weird or mean."

Permalink

 

"I don't know what that means but it sounds good."

Permalink

"Just - I don't think it'll be bad for me, if asking about rules is dangerous or if there's unfair food rules."

Permalink

She puzzles over the phone again, gives up, shrugs.

"Some rules are really bad."
