"I love you, too. Okay, uh. We should get to Jeneora sooner rather than later, though. I didn't want to just drop supplies without someone on the other end to try and, uh," she waves vaguely. Keep people from desperate infighting over resources that suddenly just appeared. That. "So. It's on its way, but we need to drag it out from its underground storage room thing. And I thought you'd be better at sorting out the people element than, uh. Anyone else present."

The mental image of Nai trying to run interface sprouts in Zash's mind and he shudders. "Yep. No argument here.

"How's Morgan, by the way?"

Yvette has honestly totally spaced on keeping track of her, because there was a lot of work to do. Um. Oops.

".... Fine?" she says, but it sounds like a question. "Um. I guess no Legato or Elendira or. Anything."

Permalink

...he loves her a lot.

"I'll ask the plants." And also take this time to say hi to Nai.

[finally remembered I exist?]

Wait he meant to be teasing not to sound anxious. Ugh.

[how could I ever forget you exist? you're my Nai.]

He vanishes from psychic senses.

Yvette notices, and snorts. "He's also been having fun. Though, um, a bit anxious about you? You seemed a bit..." She doesn't know how to put it to words. Distant? Like he needed space? Which to be clear is absolutely fine, Yvette gets it and Zash doesn't need to defend himself for needing space to think or anything, especially when he's so obviously happy, just. ... Look she feels bad about not keeping any kind of track of Morgan, okay, she's maybe making up for it by trying to show how she did keep tabs on Nai!

"Yeah, I can imagine, he'd been gearing up for a Big Talk and then instead it was a Small Talk except I left immediately after, poor guy was probably really confused." And there goes Zash's brain sliding rrrriiiight past his reasoning for why he did that because he does not need to think about it. "Thank you for keeping my wayward brother company, though, I'm sure he appreciated it." Loved it, more like.

(She notices the slide, but is going to bravely pretend not to have noticed, because she supports him in his brain privacy choices.)

"He did! We make excellent workaholic buddies, to I'm sure your complete lack of surprise."

"It's probably Nai's version of a fun night out or something.

"Also, plants inform me that Morgan asked Nai for his rendition of what happened between Elendira and you and asked him to translate the plants' memories of what Elendira was thinking at the time and then went off to investigate and is not here anymore. I hope Legato hasn't killed her but I think I'm not worried?"

"Oh! Good. Uh. ... I don't know where she would have gone, though." She's not really sure how one would... set up a nebulous Trap Of Some Kind for a psycho. That is extremely not her specialty. She could try to figure it out but that sounds both difficult and inefficient, she can devote brainpower to it if he wants her to but, well. .... she's so busy though!!

Nah he's pretty sure that between the two of them he's the more qualified one to figure out how to create a Trap Of Some Kind for a psycho and he thinks Morgan has both of them beat by a mile.

Which is pretty much why he's not worried, if there's anyone who could lure a psycho somehow and survive it it'd be her.

"Though if we're all going to Jeneora we might want to leave her a note somewhere to tell her where we've gone. Or, actually, Zazi?"

Permalink

Here's a body. "That's our name, don't wear it out."

Permalink

"Do you know where Morgan is?"

Permalink

"Yep!"

Permalink

"Aaand could you tell us?"

Permalink

"Nope! She doesn't want us to."

Permalink

"...fair enough. Could you, uh, let her know we're on our way to Jeneora, then?"

Permalink

"What's in it for us?"

Permalink

This looks like a job for her, she's been pretty good at coming up with Zazi bribes so far. Honestly, Zazi is probably fishing for a Zazi bribe right now, she wouldn't put it past them.

"I could show you how to bake cupcakes. It's just chemistry and getting the ratios right, really, and then you have a delicious thing at the end of it. Several, with cupcakes."

"Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm."

"Deal!"

"I will also throw in frosting to go on top of the cupcakes if you would please also let her know that we want to meet back up with her to touch base and help her with her project," continues Yvette, who has enough practice at this to know the likeliest pitfall.
