[ Caffeine won't matter if they're all going to pass out! There are even little tea biscuits. ]

You must have many questions and I'll do my best to answer them, but I ask for forgiveness if I don't have answers to offer.

[ They gesture with a hand. ]

Have a seat.

[agamid]

[ he takes a seat... ]

Another inexplicably anomaly, I take it?

[dropoffs]

Not necessarily. You may have missed the announcement during your return, but this is a scheduled space jump to get to our next location.

[ over here. Dion can double check if he wants. ]

I can't guarantee... That there isn't an anomaly onboard, but we cannot stay on Strihira during their eclipse. [ They do not sit yet. ] Shall I pour you a cup of tea?

[agamid]

[ well, that's troubling ]

That would be most appreciated. [ yum ] You believe the anomaly is the reason behind the strange occurrences between my group and that of Temenos'?

[dropoffs]

[ They serve him some tea. It's lightly fragrant. ]

Help yourself to the biscuits. [ They will take a seat now and ponder... ] For Adrastea's group, it was in our logs that there would be a mission going out Wednesday night with the ideal return time of Thursday. The objective is to clear the flood of cosmoelectromagnetic waves, which result in a galactic storm. The more it grows, the worse the storm can be.

For your group, I am unsure. You had no senior crew personnel with you. Do you remember how you got there? Clownham...

[agamid]

[ Clownham... ]

Thank you. [ frowns ] I truly cannot say. I felt as though I had lived there for years. Though I could remember the Eudora, it didn't feel relevant.

[dropoffs]

... I suppose I shouldn't be surprised. Time is strange when there are technological advancements beyond one's imagination.

[ BUT THEYRE LIKE ???????? ]

To give you a reference, you were here yesterday.

[agamid]

Yesterday... [ his head is so full of clay ] I see. It is when I had been turned into a frog.

[dropoffs]

Yes... I had heard you were quite a large frog. Unheard of, at least for myself.

[ WILD THAT WAS YESTERDAY ]

[agamid]

You've never seen a large frog?

[dropoffs]

Supposedly, you were dog-sized? So no, not a frog that size.

[agamid]

[ how did they get here ]

I see... You mentioned the other mission as well. Are they usually expected to be dangerous?

[dropoffs]

[ He was reminiscing about times at the Eudora which was years ago and also yesterday for him. ]

It will depend on the storm's grade... Cosmoelectromagnetic waves and fields are more dangerous the larger they are. We can expect to find benign ones as well, so I cannot say that every mission will be as dangerous as Adrastea's.

[agamid]

[ oh right

cosmoelecjcgnjvdgj ]

... Was all this language and technology familiar to you before you arrived here?

[dropoffs]

[ THE CEM.... ]

It was not. Even when I was given information on it, it was difficult to absorb.

[agamid]

[ he rubs his temple ]

I see. I often feel as though I grasp merely a quarter of any given conversation. If there are any... resources that you found proved useful, I would be grateful to leverage them.

[dropoffs]

Of course, Mister Lesage... I can send you some articles on the works of space with what I think may be best to understand.

If you ever have questions or feel lost, I am here to serve.

[ They definitely understand what it's like. ]

[agamid]

[ nods... thank you

anyway, here is where i could ask about plot but weekly effect time. someone is hungry for gossip. ]

What are your thoughts on your peers?

[dropoffs]

They are all very capable, though some are friendlier than others.

[ Help. ]

[agamid]

Are you close with them?

[dropoffs]

... I still have not asked if they would consider us close.

[ How do you ask people if you two are friends? ]

[agamid]

[ ... ]

Closeness does not always need to be reciprocated. Do you feel as if you trust and care for them?

[dropoffs]

Is that so...

[ That's an interesting thing to consider. ]

I trust them. They are good people... And I wish them well.

[agamid]

But you are not close companions.

[dropoffs]

In the sense we know an intimate amount about each other, I wouldn't say we're incredibly close, but we are... Companions.

[ Or they would hope so. ]
