What do you when you're not lighting psychos on fire?

[Guess who? Also she's asking for her only friend: her.]

[bellare]

[ yeahhhhh this can only be one person. he probably shouldn't smile at that, but, well. he does enjoy that as much as she does. ]

I've been moving. Don't know if you've heard but the station is about to crash into the planet.

[ so what better place to be than the planet??? she's probably one of the only people who will pick up on it being a joke. ]

Plus it's a shorter commute.

[christmasmint]

I listen when it's important. [aka lurking everywhere!!]

Think it will really crash?

[bellare]

I had a feeling.

No idea. We should probably be ready for it either way.

[christmasmint]

I only care about the pods. Everything else just sounds like noise to me.

[Feel free to correct her. That's her impression of things.]

[bellare]

Haven't figured out if they're collateral or something else yet.

[ but yeah, they're important. he spent his first months camped out by maria's pod like any sane, rational person would, right? but she's not real, she's dead. she's supposed to be. and now his father is in there too. what does it mean? he had to get out, he still feels cowardly for it. ]

Who's in there for you?

[christmasmint]

Two kids. They don't belong to anyone. [Maybe that's why she keeps protecting them.]

[bellare]

We'll keep them safe. [ yes. 'we.' ]

[christmasmint]

You're going to help me?

[bellare]

I thought that was obvious when I gave you my lighter.

[christmasmint]

There's a big difference between killing bad men and keeping people safe.

[At least now she knows they're on the same page with that too.]

[bellare]

And yet they often go hand in hand.

[christmasmint]

I couldn't be sure you were interested in the other side of it.

[Riley fought the impulse every step of the way. She would get it.]

I could use the help. Maybe I could move them alone if it came down to it, but I don't know anything these pods. Dying on a planet isn't much better than dying in a tube.

[bellare]

It's my job at home. This username isn't just for show.

I'll come take a look, I'm no scientist but I've met a couple here. Picked up a few things.

[christmasmint]

[She considers asking him about that before deciding to drop it. She can't really afford pissing him off and it's hard not to sound condescending when you're talking to someone who is unironically calling themselves The Punisher.] I'd appreciate the look. I've always been better with crunching numbers.

[bellare]

I like numbers too.

It takes about an hour once I get on the transport. I'll leave now.

[christmasmint]

I'll be here. I always am.
