Found my Fluid; I can type in English which is what I suspected based on how it was working out in my head. Also, I got a gift from Sodder. Can I try it on you?
[...]
It's not dangerous or anything. I think it'll help.
Really? That's oddly comforting to know. Where are you? I wandered away from base for a few minutes. Sorry. I'm fine. I just saw something I wanted to check out.
[but more importantly: WIFE APPROACH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! he's there to greet her when she gets to their base, immediately checking her over for any damage. he's almost forgot about what he wanted to show her!]
Are you okay? Do you need anything? [barkbarkbarkbarkbark]
[He is a good husband, truly he is. She's fine, no injuries- her blanket is strapped to her back- she was giving Will some emotional TLC and the blanket helps. She chuckles, reaching out to pat his shoulder. There there, bucko. ]
I'm fine. Honestly. I'm- keeping busy is helping.
[If she doesn't rest enough to think about the fact they're in a goldfish bowl then she's winning, right?]
It, uh... [gosh, it's hard to think under all this sudden... lack of stress.] a hat.
[okay.]
It lets me have brain thoughts. [...] Read brain thoughts. Telepathy! That's it.
[it takes some considerable willpower to force himself to his feet, slipping out from the blanket to pull out the little deer themed bonnet. it is tiny. it is adorable.]

I got something from her, too.
So we might as well see what we've got.
Who knows how much we might need them soon.

[After dealing with THAT hellscape, she's glad to have a little gift for all her troubles.]
I'm heading back after checking up on Will.
You know you can wander, right? You're not stuck here,
Was it anything good?
[She's guessing PROBABLY NOT.]
no subject
Not really, no. Just a rat.
How's Will?
no subject
Was it okay?
Did it look hurt or hungry or need a scratch behind the ears?
[Jessie there are more important things here than if the animals need each scritches or food. Get a grip.]
He's... doing better.
Not great.
But he's getting there.
no subject
It was fine. It just knocked something over and spooked me; I thought one of the people that live here had found our base.
That's something. Is there anything I can do to help?
no subject
Lucky for us it was just a rat then.
Last thing we need is any of those guys finding us.
Well, I'm sure he'd appreciate a visit sometime.
Pretty sure he thinks you're really cool.
no subject
Mami will help, too.
Yeah?
I know a lot happened. I can come with you next time you go.
no subject
Wow, look at you go.
Colour me impressed.
...How's she doing? Mami?
I'm sure he'd like that a lot.
Me too.
no subject
We are small.
[yeah, like she doesn't know that, buzz...]
Alright, I think.
I've been trying to make sure Bebe found her, but I haven't managed to contact either of them just yet.
It's a date, then. [SEE HOW CONFIDENTLY HE SAYS THAT WITHOUT SCREAMING]
no subject
I think one check is enough.
Maybe two at most.
[Honey, it's okay, you can unclench sometimes.]
All we can do is keep our ears and eyes open.
Weird date but okay, Space Ranger.
[He's typing he can still be screaming!]
no subject
[unclench? don't know her.]
Are you almost back?
no subject
Sure, just a couple minutes away.
Be there before you know it :)
[She's comin!]

[ugh, whatever, wires! the gist is clear; he agrees. he doesn't like it, but he's pretty sure it's what they're all doing.]
Where did you get the blanket?
no subject
Sodder. I just found it with a little note attached. [She pulls it off her back.] Okay, keep still!
[She tosses the blanket over him, and he can instantly feel any of his worries dissolve away- swallowed in a wave of calm. Magical.]
no subject
[it's probably kind of funny how he immediately chills out. how strange! he likes this.]
Oh.
no subject
Pretty great, right? I think it makes you invisible to enemies, too- but not folk out to help you.
no subject
My thing isn't as neat as this, but I like it.
no subject
What does your thing do, anyway? Now you got me curious.
no subject
[okay.]
It lets me have brain thoughts. [...] Read brain thoughts. Telepathy! That's it.
[it takes some considerable willpower to force himself to his feet, slipping out from the blanket to pull out the little deer themed bonnet. it is tiny. it is adorable.]
I have to put it on.
no subject
So you can read my brain thoughts with it? That's pretty brave territory to step into, Space Ranger.
[SHE doesn't like living in her own head, she doubts anyone else would.]
