“I do what needs to be done. I don’t know that anyone would be okay with that.”

"This is true, but... I don't know. You have people that care about you, and your welfare also matters here? And a lot of things are easier when shared. It's okay to not be okay, but... pretending everything is fine when it's not is just going to screw you over later. From experience. And I don't want that to happen to you."

“Mm. 

I can’t think of anything that would help and also be a good idea. I’ll let you know if that changes. I don’t mind talking about it, but I don’t think it’s pretending to talk about other things.”

"That's fair. It's not. But I do just want you to be okay."

“…Thank you.”

"You're welcome. I'll go back to other topics now. I'm steerable, promise." Bounce bounce. "Also easily bored, did I mention that I'm grumpy, I'm grumpy because emotions are hard, but also the bottom of the ocean is boring. I ran out of neat things to look at pretty quickly."

“I can find you more neat things to look at if you’d like that.”

"Sure! I want to build a house at the bottom of the ocean, so I think I'd appreciate getting to see materials and building designs. To steal from."

“Sure. I’ll show you Foolish’s summer home. —It’s faster if we go through the nether.”

"Sounds good!" Bounce bounce.

Behold: Foolish's summer home.

"Ooooooo," she says of it.

"That is extremely pretty. Also significantly more showy than what I wanted to go for, but. Extremely pretty!"

"It's one of the best builds on the server. The best, maybe, depending on what you're judging them on."

"It's really nice! But I think I want something a bit less. I don't know, intimidating? ... Maybe some intimidating, just. I think I am plenty intimidating already, you know?"

"....Yeah, I can understand that.

My house isn't a building, it's hidden in the side of a mountain four thousand blocks away from spawn. Otherwise I'd show you that."

Giggle.

"Aw. That's adorable. Yeah, you don't have to show me your home, it's fine. I can teleport, not telling me about places is just reasonable."

"--Oh, no, I don't mind that? Most people know where it is, it's not secret. But it won't help you with building designs."

"Oh! It might help with interiors, though. I'd want it to be a homey place for me and visitors on the inside, too, not just nice to look at."

Shrug. "If you want to see it you can. Coordinates are around -3800 X -3900 Z, I don't remember the Y coordinate off the top of my head. It's not particularly homey either, really, but I like it."

"Well now I just want to see it out of general affection. Shall we go? I'll teleport first to figure out a safe Y coordinate for you, I am a responsible teleporter."

"Go for it."

"I'll bring you once I'm done falling out of the sky hilariously!" she says brightly, and then away she teleports!

Wheeeee!

And then, once she's safely on the ground: here is a Sam, at the appropriate Y coordinate.

Sam goes up to the side of the mountain, hoes a very specific patch of grass, and then part of the side of the mountain comes down. The walls and floor are mostly polished stone, with periodic shroomlights and quartz. There's also a lot of chests. Sam shows her a couple hidden rooms, some redstone contraptions he's made, a small automated wheat farm, and the rooms where Sapnap and George stayed back when there were only six people on the server. His voice goes very soft when he shows her his dog, Fran.

Yvette is delighted, especially by all of the contraptions. And Fran, she is very delighted by Fran.

"Who's a good puppy," she coos. "Who stays back here to keep safe?"

"That's right! You are!" He gives Fran a bone.
