[ she's so sad about not going to the fairground he's like uhhhhh you should go. feels bad. ]
Maybe there's a fairground planet.
[ there is not. ]
But if they are going to be paying us the amount they're saying they will, you should do something fun with the money as well as being responsible with it. Balance, right?
There's something to be said about not having a lot of money. Not in the long run, but you know how to budget and not blow it when you actually get your hands on some.
[ genuinely excited to see what kinds of planets there are... aaaaa. ]

People would usually try to adapt to overcome their shortcomings.
[ basically git gud or die ]

... I'll be thankful for my own vision being decent.
[ Despite only having one eye. ]

They say if your senses are lacking in some way, the others work double time to make up for it. Like people with glasses have really good hearing.

no subject
[ Then things get complicated over the week, but I just wanted to put this there so that Shu knows about it FEEL FREE TO HANDWAVE THE REST OF THIS ]
