[ They can hold hands for a while. Despite them both being gloved, just this sort of physical contact is enough for Yuri to muster energy to start speaking. ]
To tell you that we will find him and bring him back seems almost patronizing. [a little sigh.] I suppose... I hope that you have a little more hope in you.
Mm. I was working hard to see if we could bring the deceased back over here to us... now, I really can't mess up. I need to work harder than ever. So, it's alright Throne. I've been working for it... It doesn't feel patronizing.
Ah, Throne. This might be overdue, but Scien told me to get in contact with you a while ago. Many things were happening, so I didn't have a chance to properly ask... He said something about "ghosts of the past Eudora crew".
Oh - yes. [she shifts.] The people mentioned in the datapads that we have been finding - the previous crew - are with our dead, as far as I can tell. I'm unsure how to speak with them, or if it's important to do so... but they are there.
Wherever it is, there are a lot of rats who bring gifts, and the walls are made of flesh.
Good question. You can always write them an angry letter demanding they tell you. [this is a joke, judging by the way she's trying to not smile.] ... I'm sure they didn't intend for it. The dead worry for us quite a bit, I think.

... I know. It helps though. Thank you.

Thank you. I really mean it.

You are not alone. Rely on us, and we will rely on you.

Okay. I will do all I can.

Thank you. I'm sorry... that must have been uncomfortable.
no subject
What must have been uncomfortable?
no subject
[ Flesh walls and rats. ]
The rats seem to be a common theme.
no subject
[sweats]
But... yes. You're right. Charles told me a little about what happened to you, with the rats.

[ She feels a little embarrassed, but it's a good step in the right direction so that she's not full of MISERY. ]
I can only wonder whose idea that was...

[ Polyamory bird... ]
It... still feels surreal, to refer to the deceased as someone we can communicate with.
no subject
But it is keeping me moving. [...] I have to have something. I'm losing steam, as I'm sure most everyone is.
