text; after the babadont plot

[bothbarrels]

θ: Who here is an artificial life form? How were you created?

θ: Who here has siblings? How do you get along?

θ: Who here has a close friend who you consider closer than family? How did you develop that bond?

θ: Who here knows you died back where you came from? How are you dealing with that information?

[ Yes, it's the middle of the night and Theta is bored. Plus he just wants to know more about the people here. He hopes everyone who responds sticks to text; he doesn't want to awaken North. ]

Oh, wow. That makes sense to me though. I didn't trust anybody at first but North. I pretty much only talked to other people through him.

[zerofield]

It sounds like North is a good person to have around.

[inner_child]

He really is! Do you know about how he's the one who confronted the monster?

[zerofield]

I figured someone must've done something to shake it out, but I didn't realize that was him, no.

[inner_child]

He did. He's really brave and strong.

He already had his sister and his best friend yell at him for how he did it, though.

[zerofield]

I'm glad someone got it out into the open, even if that fight was...nervewracking.

[inner_child]

I'll let him know you said so.

[zerofield]

If he's been yelled at, I think he ought to get at least a couple of thank yous.

[inner_child]

I think so too! He deserves them.

[zerofield]

It was a nasty fight, but it was a fight and not a straight up ambush, so he has my thanks.

[inner_child]

Thank you for telling me, too. I really appreciate it.

[zerofield]

If it helps, I'm glad.

[ It's still kind of a "wow" moment for her when she makes a positive impact at...anything, really. ]

[inner_child]

It does! It really does.

How are you doing after the whole thing?

[zerofield]

I'm in one piece, and it's not the worst thing I've ever seen. So...it was certainly no fun, but I feel okay.

[inner_child]

I'm glad. Hopefully it's not the kind of thing where you start feeling bad later...
