[ everyone's depressed, no one can run from it ]

...

[ shu sticks his tongue out slightly and then pulls a face. ]

Yeah, it's kinda overkill.

[piteous]

[ Bleps back at him. ]

[roseoftexas]

[ they are just blepping at each other now i guess. ]

Think this is how they make their money?

[piteous]

... A steady, peaceful job is nice.

[ Smiles at him. ]

Kinda envious of dwarves, but I don't know if mining is all that safe?

[ Looking up and around. ]

[roseoftexas]

Probably not. A cave in would be pretty disastrous.

…

But you probably find some amazing things in a place like this.

[piteous]

Like what? Is it mostly the scenery?

[ Vash sidles up next to Shu, seemingly very confident in showing he likes company. ]

[roseoftexas]

Mm. Don't people find gems and diamonds in mines? Wonder if that's the case here.

[ shu sounds very confident in this even if it turns out to be wrong. ]

[piteous]

... Think we could pawn it?

[ Confidently? ]

[roseoftexas]

Think one of the reapers would pay for it if we found it?

[piteous]

Maybe if you encrust the diamond on a weapon, Ruby would be interested, but I don't think a diamond alone would spark anything.

Got any idea on the other two?

[roseoftexas]

Make a point of how big the resale value is on it for Aika. She's really quick to try and sell you things. Or upsell you on things.

[piteous]

... I don't think any of us will buy the diamond.

Maybe Ylfa.

[roseoftexas]

I feel like Ylfa would either want to buy it, genuinely, or know you're scamming her. No inbetween.

[piteous]

A diamond's a girl's best friend? Maybe she'd buy that.

[roseoftexas]

... Diamond axe?

[piteous]

Diamond axe.

[ ... ]

Maybe it'll make her feel a little better.

[roseoftexas]

[ .... ]

Yeah.

It's been a rough couple of weeks for her.

[piteous]

It's been rough for all of us.

[ how are we both alive becci the gods are too cruel ]

You holding up okay, Shooey Shu?

[roseoftexas]

[ i am begging someone to kill shu. ]

...

[ but first the main point here: ]

"Shooey Shu"?

[piteous]

Shu?

[ it is a cute nickname ]

[roseoftexas]

Where'd the 'Shooey' come from...

[piteous]

I added an -ee noise after your name to make it cute!

[roseoftexas]

[ .... ok. ]

Okay.

Do you nickname a lot of people?

[piteous]

[ did i ever mention that most of his hair is black except for one blond streak at the front ]

I do. I think it's fun sometimes. I used to call Shenhe "Snowie," not that I've seen snow until here.

[roseoftexas]

[ i deeply hate you and am ignoring you and assigning him blonde. ]

-- oh right, desert planet. How'd you find the snow? Cold? Fun?
