Day 238 | Closed voice/Open action
[ As shitty as Dirk feels, he really doesn't like spending so much time by himself. It would have been fine, once upon a time, but now after having gotten used to interacting with his friends 24/7 (24/10? Marina seems to operate with ten-day weeks, he thinks, if the school schedule is anything to go by) it just makes him frustrated to be by himself.

So after having spent maybe 18 hours shut up alone in a random apartment he picked out after therapy ended, he decides he needs to hang out with someone. Not Jake, though. Not Roxy, either. He likes Dave, but he can only imagine how Dave feels about him, having been raised by his Alternate Douchebag Self. Aradia would be a good choice, but she was there at that session the day before when Dirk went off on himself. Ugh, why did he even do that. Fuck fuck fuck. Not Helix, he keeps getting existential around Helix and he's sick of getting existential.

So that leaves the cherubs, who frankly he should have decided on from the start, because hey, he's been friends with Calliope even longer than Jane or Jake, and Caliborn's always good for a laugh. ]

[ Voice / Filtered to the cherubs / Early afternoon ]

Hey.

[ Action / Open / Late evening ]

[ Sometime after he and Calliope get done hanging out, he decides to go for a walk. It's evening, there shouldn't be too many people milling about. Get some fresh air. Yeah, that's a good plan. ]

	Good evening, enjoying the fresh air are we? [ Peggy was returning from the stables, trousers full of dust and hair more unkempt then usual. She'll give him a passing nod as she walks towards him, not, initially perhaps, intending to dally. ]</small (Reply to this) (Thread)

	[ Dirk was just heading to the stables; when he's down, nothing cheers him up like watching the horses. He stops when Peggy addresses him, stuffing his hands in his pockets and shifting his weight awkwardly. How to people? ] Uh, yeah, basically. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[ she pursed her lips to hide a laugh and then licked them slightly before speaking. ] I see. Well, as far as fresh air goes, the stables are a little more fresh then most. I'm afraid the bots haven't quite had a chance to clean up the yard just yet. [ although she can hardly complain. The horses are worth the risk of fresh manure. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Heh, yeah. Nature sucks, don't it? [ His mind races to place this person. Have they talked? Wait, yeah, he thinks so. She's been around for a while. Dirk needs to get out more. ] ...Peggy something, right? (Reply to this) (Parent)
