That, really. [ Childermass is as equally caught off guard since he had considered that a pretty good time? late afternoon meal, a trip to a museum, something normal. ] Nothing tried to kill us, no one barged in to ruin it, we didn't argue. I honestly wish we had a chance to do more of that.

[whattaprick]

Kind of sad that’s unusual enough that it stood out, huh?

Maybe we’ll get to do that again. When this is all over.

[ Whatever the fuck that looks like. Hell if Lambert knows. ]

[atouts]

Let's leave it as 'it was nice' and ignore how rare that is. [ he knows it's sad, but whatever. ] Truth or dare?

[whattaprick]

Are you just going to chase me off if I pick dare?

[atouts]

You would come back even if I did.

[whattaprick]

Too right I would.

[ Dares would be his preference, generally speaking, but Childermass probably expects that. So: ]

Truth, then.

[atouts]

And here I had a great dare, too. [ oh well. ] What's something that's surprised you during your time with the carnival so far?

[whattaprick]

Save it for next time.

[ As for his answer... ]

Isn’t it obvious? Falling in love. Unless it’s cheating to answer that...

[atouts]

That one is a little too obvious, Lambert.

[whattaprick]

Doesn’t make it any less true.

[ But fine, fine. He’ll take a moment to think. It’s not that there aren’t any moments like that... it’s just that there are so many that without any qualifiers, he’s hard pressed to pick just one, much less decide how sincere or irreverent he ought to be. In the end, he’ll still settle for something simple. ]

Worlds look a lot smaller from space.

[atouts]

They do. [ he can only agree. ] Alarmingly so...

[whattaprick]

Think I might actually have enjoyed it if I was my own shape, but I guess we won’t be heading that way for a while.

[atouts]

I'm sure there are lots of planets with space stations out there, so you never know.
