[Once Ruby gets a hold of the new Fluid (Which isn't called a Fluid but she's going to call it that until she gets corrected) she immediately starts it up to see what's going on. Surely she has some important and vital wisdom to pass onto the other people of Trench, right?

RIGHT????]

first



[Or she could do that.]

You? Go for the quiet type?
Hmmmm, you know, I could see you having the patience for that.

As for the bridge...
Cinder's absolutely insane, and what happened there confirmed something for me that I told Em a long time ago.
Ignoring that I was definitely planning to get her one day, she's the sort who will murder you because you didn't help her the way she wanted.
It's a long story but I did her a big favor leading up to that, and her response was to get me killed and probably get Watts killed too.
She kills people who work for her, because they barely pissed her off one time.
Always pretends it's their fault.

I'm really glad Emerald got out from under her thumb.
If you can believe this, even Salem isn't that fucking stupid.

[onekindsoul]

I mean- She can be loud when she wants to.
She just plays hard to get.
And she's got a lot of patience for me.
Which means a lot.

Yeah... I got that impression when she talked to me on he bridge.
You know when she sending us both to our doom.
That's pretty awful to say the least about it.

Yeah. I'm glad Emerald chose a different path too.
Really got to see her shine back in our world before all this.
Shame we wont get to see where she goes.

[threelayers]

Red, no offense, but the girl has to have the patience of a saint.
You're literally the very definition of a can of that Red Bull stuff I heard about in the nightmare.

We should actually talk about all of that.
Later, mostly because it doesn't change anything here, but you deserve to know a few things.
But it's amazing how stupid that woman really is.
She'll lose eventually because of how much she always fights alone.

I'm not an optimistic person, you know that.
But I hope I'll get to see emerald again, here or there.

[onekindsoul]

Pretty sure she does!
She's been through a lot back home and the fact that she can keep as cool as she does says a lot about her.
I think I'm probably the least of her worries.

That's fair- We'll find a good time once tensions are down a little and we'll talk.
I'm sure there are things on my end that you probably want to know too.
Yeah... Hopefully everyone else can find a way to take care of her.
Winter probably has the best chances of that now.

I'm sure you will.
Just keep on holding on to that hope.

[threelayers]

True. Other than your bad habit of charging into danger?
You're not exactly someone to cause a whole lot of worry for somebody you date.
Admittedly you do that a LOT, Red.

[There was also the possibility they survive the fall. Neo wasn't going to actually SAY that. She wasn't about to jinx it, and her survival didn't necessarily mean everything was fixed back there.]

As long as that crazy bitch's stopped.
And, I will Red. I promise.
That's an easy promise to make at least.
I'll wait for her forever.

[onekindsoul]

Woah, woah, woah.
Low blow there.
I'm trying to work on that-
But I mean it's kind of my thing so it's a hard habit to break.
Just kind of redirecting the energy, you know?

[Ruby had considered that too. But the warning they had received gave her at least a little pause. Was where they'd end up going to be Remnant? Was there a way back?]

My feelings exactly.
I'm glad- I will too.
You don't just give up on family.

[threelayers]

Hah, maybe, but you probably wouldn't be you if you weren't always ready to jump in.
I think we both know that's how you are, after all.

No, you don't, and she will always be my family.
You know, come to think of it, they really need to change the vows around here.
"Till Death do us part" just does not work right in this town.

[onekindsoul]

You've got a good point there.
I think even with the redirecting of energy it's just a different way to be on the front lines.

Oh my gosh! You're right.
Jeez- I'm kind of wondering what's going to happen here when we you know-
Kick the bucket again.
Hoping it doesn't happen anytime soon but-
That's going to be a whole new thing figure out here.

[threelayers]

For now, I think I'm just fine not knowing what happens when we die around here. Last time was bad enough as is, after all. And I never liked the idea of risking the memories.

Let's just try to avoid playing with that irony, eh?

[onekindsoul]

Yeah. I don't plan on rushing into anything myself honestly.
Being bed ridden for like a month was the absolute worst.

Fine fine~!

[threelayers]

Ugh, don't remind me.
I hear it's not quite as bad, but I don't plan to find out.
But alright then, I'm done being the 'mommy' today.

I'll see you around Red.
