Okay, so not to be ungrateful--because I really appreciate being fished out of the ocean and given a crash course, really, I do--but the whole time thing? Things are just frozen, back where we came from, is that it?

_{( He pauses for a moment, and huffs. Perceptive listeners will be able to tell that he sounds exhausted, more so when he continues. )}

Yeah, I find that a little hard to swallow. More than this place, even. Has there been any verification, on that? Or am I just supposed to assume the nice people fishing me out of the ocean were telling the truth?

_{( Another pause, some muttering that isn't quite audible, though there may be a curse or two in there. Something about deserving this? Who knows. And then, just as unceremoniously as it began, the feed cuts. )}

Here?

[She raises an eyebrow.]

People you know?

[arches]

Actually haven't met any of those. But the few non-natives I've talked to didn't seem to be so far off, from me.

[flawedgoods]

It seems everyone I've spoken to is from a different world or place than myself. I'm surprised you haven't found more from worlds beyond your own.

[arches]

I guess maybe I didn't want to consider the possibility.

[flawedgoods]

It does complicate things a great deal, doesn't it?

[Not that she minds now that she's gotten used to the idea. Favrielle can only hope she'll return home to take what she's seen and apply it to fresh designs in the City of Elua.]

[arches]

Well, it definitely doesn't make them any easier.

[flawedgoods]

Things are rarely easy.

[And that's all she's going to say on that point.]

Good luck finding that verification you were seeking.
