Re: Day 250

[mykidisthebest]

I'm not sure I follow. Do you think the ship's going to eat you or something?

Re: Day 250

[fullcursemeal]

Well, between you and I... I simply have no business on land.

Re: Day 250

[mykidisthebest]

None at all? That doesn't sound right. Did you quit your job to become one with the sea?

Re: Day 250

[fullcursemeal]

Mmm... how to put this?

I'm more interested in my previous job.

Re: Day 250

[mykidisthebest]

--! From the visions?

Re: Day 250

[fullcursemeal]

That's right.

Re: Day 250

[mykidisthebest]

...I only have one, so it's a little hard for me to understand the appeal. Do you like what you see in your visions more than the life you have now?

Re: Day 250

[fullcursemeal]

Wow. You're the first one to get it right off the bat.

Re: Day 250

[mykidisthebest]

That was really it?! I mean, from what you said, it seemed like the most obvious reason. But...they're just visions, aren't they? Even if they feel like memories you can't exactly go live that life.

Re: Day 250

[fullcursemeal]

... Even so. I prefer them to the alternative.

Re: Day 250

[mykidisthebest]

...Can I ask what you liked about them so much?

Re: Day 250

[fullcursemeal]

You mean other than my life, in general?

Re: Day 250

[mykidisthebest]

Yeah. Like, was there a specific memory that hooked you? Or was it just...everything you've seen, that you prefer over your current life?

Re: Day 250

[fullcursemeal]

...



The people.

Re: Day 250

[mykidisthebest]

Ah. I can't really argue with that, can I? That's the most important part. Do you miss them?

Re: Day 250

[fullcursemeal]

Unfortunately, yes.

Re: Day 250

[mykidisthebest]

What's your plan for seeing them again?

Re: Day 250

[fullcursemeal]

... I don't have one.

Re: Day 250

[mykidisthebest]

Hmm.

When are you going to come up with a plan?

Re: Day 250

[fullcursemeal]

Why does it sound like my struggles aren't being taken seriously?

[he doesn't sound serious himself, though]

Re: Day 250

[mykidisthebest]

I can promise you that I'm serious. If you're not, then you're just undermining yourself.

Re: Day 250

[fullcursemeal]

Why so much investment all of a sudden?

Re: Day 250

[mykidisthebest]

It's not that sudden. Or, maybe it is since I just got here. But this whole situation is obviously something we shouldn't just be sitting on our hands over. It's better to try and do something than throw up your hands and do nothing. That's all.

Re: Day 250

[fullcursemeal]

Let me ask you, instead. Presumably the visions and the process of viewing them has already been explained to you, yes?

Re: Day 250

[mykidisthebest]

Yes. I was told they feel more real after the...third one? But only your own. Looking at other people's doesn't count, for some reason.
