[backdated last night]

[Filtered away from first gens, their allies, and people who would tell them for shits and giggles, and filtered to those in the castle area who are interested in the expedition progress]

[all of this was written with slow deliberation]

We just made it to Amber Steppes, was it? I was never good with remembering a names of places. So far, we haven't run into any major conflicts. Still alert just in case.

We made sure to avoid the Eldritch Forest. Thinking about that place still makes my skin tingle. Haven't found anything interesting yet, aside from random samples.

[He pauses in writing]

Is anyone taking care of the outdoor stage? I forgot about sweeping it until we were well off in our travels.

I didn't realize that thing was even still maintained... I guess I can give it the occasional sweep if you want.

Any interesting flora or fauna yet? I'd really have to kick myself if you guys happen to run into Joy's spiders without me there.

I try to maintain it when I can, but lately my schedule hasn't been good for doing a hard cleaning. If you're not busy, I would be grateful if you could give it a sweep.

Not so much on the fauna, but we're always picking up new flora samples to compare. So far, it all looks the same, but... there's more complicated chemical stuff to look into, right?

Yeah, I guess. That's more Raine's or the Doctor's area of expertise, though.

[ Or MOMO's, alas, but she is no longer here. ]

That's why I'm carrying everything back for them.

[he pauses]

Is there any fauna you'd like me to bring back? Like... bugs or small animals...?

Nah, that's okay. I've got enough of a zoo. Just want you guys to stay sharp! And pictures wouldn't hurt.

I don't have a camera with a power crystal... Will sketches be okay?

Don't put yourself out, it sounds like you've got enough to do. But I'm sure someone there has a camera.

It's alright! We might find it on our way back.

I'm glad it's going well, Django! Has it been fun?

And ah...I don't know if anyone is taking care of that or not.

It's... Okay. Not the same without you.

Ah... Well, thanks anyway.

Mm....it's rather dull back here too. I wish I was there.

How are you holding up anyway...?

Ah, fairly well! I am making sure to get on the next expedition though.

That might not be for a while...

Maybe not, but...I feel my chances are good for being here when it comes.

Who knows... Maybe six years will be the charm.

No.

I refuse to go home until we find a way for everyone who wishes to go home to do so.

...That is like you.

Mm!

People should have a right to choose if they wish to stay or go! I want to make sure that happens before I go home!

But... what if the castle takes away that desire to go?

It already tried that once, remember? And people stopped it!

If we all work together, the castle won't be able to do something like that again!

...We'll all need to be united first.

I know...

Though when it does matter, when people do see the problems, most unite, you know? Even if it's not every day.

Something big would have to happen...

Right...well we would just have to look for that big thing then!

[he laughs]

Or make it ourselves.
