[megatheorem]

Lock your doors.

[This is only half a bit; he doesn't put it past Patho-Gen to break and enter to try and study them all like insects.]

Speaking of, I won't be around the cabin much myself, so really, don't even think about doing supply runs. Bricks will have to remember to lock up.

[opposed]

[ She's of the same mind. The doors will be locked regardless but Patho-Gen's ability to assert themselves wherever can't exactly be prepared for.

Still. ]

I'll keep it in mind. Are you all right?

[ They'd spoken of it, of taking a break, but she wants to be certain. ]

[megatheorem]

No, but I will be. I'm learning about how it feels when an imprint "leaves." It's dismal.

[opposed]

Someone else? I'm so sorry. [ Shit. ] When?

[megatheorem]

A week or so.

[And a second, like, yesterday, but overlapping despairs aren't distinct enough for him to realize that yet.]

But again, I'll be fine. Silver is still in the house keeping me sane, so don't leave Jayce for my sake.

[opposed]

Viktor is here too. If this goes for much longer [ and she hopes it does not ] he can stay with Jayce and I can see you for a short time.

We don't exist in a vacuum, after all.

[ If Jayce is alive and there is little she can do, then there is still work to be done. There are still people she cares about she can help. The world won't stop for them. ]

[megatheorem]

I won't be good company. But if you insist.

[He can spare maybe half an hour away from his brooding.]

[opposed]

I do insist.

[ get treasured, idiot ]

But only on your time. Let me know. I can bring a drink of your choice.

[megatheorem]

No, don't bring anything. I'm not trying to be polite, so don't insist about a second thing.

[He doesn't want to be a host right this very second, somehow. Please bring him nothing at all.]

I'll let you know.
