Day 29: Returned

Madripoor is still there, just as I remembered it. Only a bit more vivid than before. the colors brighter, the smells stronger, the sounds louder. Perhaps this is what happens when a person wakes up in a new world: it feels a bit over the top from what she remembered before.

Did I miss anything else unusual happening while I was gone?

	The sounds louder - I'm almost afraid to ask which sounds you mean. Murder sounds? I don't think you've missed much though. We've all just been trying to adjust. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	...murder sounds?? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Well, I don't know - now you have to specify. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I meant the sounds of the city. Music, chatter, cash registers? The occasional gunshot and scream. ...that was a joke. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	In Lowtown, I doubt it's much of a joke you have to admit. Glad to have you back though, either way. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I forget I can't put anything past you. I appreciate your frankness. Glad to be back. Coffee soon? I miss your face. How was your date? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	At least someone does. And yes, coffee sounds nice. Or dinner or something - I hear the burritos around here are killer. It was good. Really good. You make plans for yours yet? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sharius power_broken 2021-09-02 06:59 pm UTC (link)
	Everyone should. I could do dinner. I feel like I haven't had a whole lot of time to go exploring. I'm so glad to hear it. Are you two... going to continue? No plans yet. It's fine. I'm not really expecting to. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sharius jetskiing 2021-09-02 07:28 pm UTC (link)
	It's been busy, huh? But yeah, exploring needs to happen. Or at least getting away from the Tower to sample the local cuisine. Probably going to continue but I'm not putting any pressure on him for something serious or committed just to me, at this stage. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sharius power_broken 2021-09-02 07:43 pm UTC (link)
	It has. Leading things from half-way across the world is a big ordeal. I'd love to get away from the Tower and away from my computer. Make me leave my phone in my room. Is that what you're looking for? Commitment? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sharius jetskiing 2021-09-02 07:49 pm UTC (link)
	Do you feel in over your head a little? Not saying you can't handle it. It's just a big empire - impressive, don't get me wrong. You're definitely impressive. But a big undertaking. Not necessarily. I'm open to keeping things open. Though I guess it depends on how you define commitment. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sharius power_broken 2021-09-02 07:57 pm UTC (link)
	Honestly? When I first arrived here, a part of me wanted to hang it up. It was a bit of relief--I could just... exist. In the tower. Heal my gunshot wound, "retire," and just be for a while. I'm not good at sitting still. How do you define commitment? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sharius jetskiing 2021-09-02 08:09 pm UTC (link)
	You still want to hang it up? Or no? Honesty, mainly. As long as someone's upfront about what they want and what makes them happy, then - it's fine with me. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sharius power_broken 2021-09-02 08:25 pm UTC (link)
	I... I'm not sure. That's good to know. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sharius jetskiing 2021-09-02 08:28 pm UTC (link)
	Fair enough. No pressure to give an answer. I suppose it's a lot to think about. Yeah? Why's that? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sharius power_broken 2021-09-02 08:29 pm UTC (link)
	It is. And, not to toot my own horn or anything, there's a lot more chaos in Madripoor without me. Mostly because I feel the same way. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sharius jetskiing 2021-09-02 08:39 pm UTC (link)
	I bet. You're judge, jury, and executioner over there. We have so much in common. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sharius power_broken 2021-09-02 08:40 pm UTC (link)
	...I wouldn't put it that way, but you're not wrong. We do. Burritos? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sharius jetskiing 2021-09-02 08:45 pm UTC (link)
	Burritos. ~~And maybe--~~ We can definitely get those. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Swing by my room when you're ready to go. I'll be working. (Reply to this) (Parent)
