[ if someone told clarice she'd be reaching out to the rest of her cohort almost the instant she finds her footing on the station, she'd have laughed in their face. frankly, she would have preferred to keep her head down, stay out of the way until she was needed.

but some things were necessary, and dealing with a whole set of people whose backgrounds and experiences she had no clue about necessitated some information-gathering.

reaching out anonymously seemed like a good compromise. ]

[ she's here for one reason, and one reason only. making a list of those she had to steer clear from is only going to help her achieve her goal in the long run. ]

what does that word mean to you?

[fuchsiative]

are those two separate things
or does turning into fire exhaust you?

[doze]

separate










( 🤔 )

probably

[fuchsiative]

[ well, hey. she can empathize with not knowing the full extent and effect of one's powers... ]

might be something to consider
mine can get pretty taxing



...never fell dead asleep randomly though
but i also try not to overdo it
the last time i did


it didn't turn out well

[doze]

yeah that usually happens when you overdo things
i just eat a lot of meat to recover when i push too hard
maybe you should try that

[fuchsiative]

didn't exactly have a lot of access to meat
but somehow i doubt it'd be the same

[doze]

you never know until you try it
not that you should be pushing yourself past your limits
but sometimes it can't be helped

[fuchsiative]

so do you just always carry around meat or something?
for those times "it can't be helped"?

[doze]

no
but i keep snacks in my pockets

[fuchsiative]

ever heard of beef jerky?

[doze]

yeah!
thats one thing i keep in my pocket

[fuchsiative]

that counts as meat, right?
or would you need like a dozen of those just to break even?
