Hard to change their minds, but not impossible, I hope. It sounds like you didn't let them get what they wanted?

[sunborne]

We sure didn't let them. We made that super clear that we had to turn it down.

[ cutting off arms and forcing others into timeout shields tends to sour possible any relationship-building attempts one will make. the only one he thinks could have salvaged that situation was his mom and.

well- he's here and not here. so. ]

But something I noticed that could be of note in the future: They only spoke when I spoke in their language. Even then it was just my words being parrotted back a lot, because they kept using the same phrases or words I used in that moment.

I didn't realise it during the whole escape thing but, looking back, that could be something to note of in the future for any future encounters?

[callada]

Strange. Like the message on the network made up of the words and voices of people here, right? That must have been them also.

I don't know how to use that but I'm sure someone will. Thank you for taking the risk to learn all of this.

[sunborne]

Definitely thank Soldat when you get the time to talk with him, too?

He was the real MVP at the final leg of our jaunt in the woods. I think if I was alone, I would have been in a lot more trouble since they had grabbed a hold of us. I don't know why but they seemed really fixated with our metal bits.

[ and since daylight is metal(ish) everything... yeah. ]

[callada]

I will.

Strange they'd go for metal parts. Like they wanted them, or just wanted to remove them from you as if they didn't belong? I wonder.

Good thing they didn't succeed, anyway. Glad you made it back safely.

[sunborne]

[ oddly enough, daylight stops speculating at this point. maybe the idea the attempt to remove the metal because they didn't belong doesn't sit right with him?

huh. ]

Me too. For a second, I really thought we were toast. I'd like to see the rest of the colours that I can still see.

If anything new happens, I'll let you and the others know ASAP. Whether it's the spirit or something else.

[callada]

Thanks.

... What's this about colors?

[sunborne]

[ oh.

did he...

not tell rosinante?

... no. no, he did not.

whoops. ]

Um. I ended up passing away at the party. During the Lighthouse expedition, the one you and the others took.

When I came back thanks to the help of our Friend, I found myself unable to see the colour yellow. Even when I recall stuff from my memories, I can't see it. Only shades of grey.

[callada]

Sorry to hear that.

Take care of yourself, all right? I'd hate for anything else to happen. We need you around.

[sunborne]

[ ... ]

Thank you.

[ for both the apology and the well-wishes. it really does mean a lot to him. ]

You too! Avoid getting into perilous situations and stuff if you can, okay? Otherwise, I'll send you a bajillion messages to your inbox like last time and you'll never be able to find anything.

[callada]

Ha. I believe that. I'll do my best.
