Ellie gets another plate of food.

Permalink

Sadde doesn't return before people start filing away from the cafeteria.

Permalink

Not really that surprising. She doesn't feel like initiating social activities, so she's going to go curl up in a corner and read.

Permalink

Sadde finds her after a while.

Permalink

Ellie looks up. "How'd it go?"

Permalink

He shrugs. "Not good. I didn't—tell them."

Permalink

"So they think you can't do anything?"

Permalink

"No, they think I can make things appear but I'm not very good at it."

Permalink

"Oh. Okay. Do you want to practice more?"

Permalink

"Yeah."

Permalink

Back to her room, then. Away from the camera.

Permalink

No cameras in sight.

"I should invent new things to believe in."

Permalink

"Um..." He thinks. "Objects? I guess?"

Permalink

"What about... armor? A shield?"

Permalink

"That would be useful. ...maybe it's easier if it's somewhere no one's looking? There could be a shield under your bed..."

Permalink

"There is a shield under my bed, you mean," she reminds him.

Permalink

"Right!"

There is a shield under her bed. His ghost looks at her...

Permalink

It's probably a big round one, like Achilles'.

Permalink

So it is! "Cool!"

Permalink

"I wasn't actually thinking about a shape, this one's nice."

Permalink

"That's the shape I thought of."

Permalink

"Oh. Makes sense." He looks around at the shield and knocks on it. It makes a dull metallic sound, and he giggles.

Permalink

"What did you make for the tester?"
