Could be better, could be worse. Honestly, I'll reserve judgment until we reach our first stop. Strihiria, apparently?
[idk charles has just finished showering and getting changed. when he spots gregor out in the hall or wherever he waves, though wincing a bit as he does.]
[the vibes are not great! charles's thoughts are a mess like he's trying to rationalize away thoughts that he knows aren't helpful.
should've—why—not dahut too—
but he manages a weak wave when he sees gregor.]
... Hey.

[hewwo... out somewhere]
Well... I know I wanted to investigate, but still, that wasn't exactly how I like to spend my day.

[over in strihiria...]
Hey. Is your city anything like this place?
[the look on charles's face as he glances around suggests it's all very new to him, at least.]

[somehow the omega mart was spared...]
... Glad it wasn't one of us, but also, I can't say I'm happy about this in general.
[viktor ): ]

[out in the void...
charles looks tired, but somehow, he still manages a dry tone.]
... Well, we were right. That wasn't pretty.

[how much has either of them slept... probably not much, but.]
Yeah... Could've been much worse, depending on who was in there with him.

[over in hippitea...]
This place is pretty cute, huh? ... Is there some kind of connection between rabbits and moons?

you what? like, someone got cursed here and wanted to kiss you?
[he is chilling in the medbay with bandages or antiseptic tape idk whatever.]
Yeah, but I'll live.

[somewhere in the void...
when charles spots gregor, he waves and walks over to him.]
... Survived another week, looks like.
[unlike, well. sidon and ashe.]

[well this is not great as charles orders water bottles from the vending machine]
[i'm going in i'm just throwing us there
here we are in the void, and before gregor has a chance to say anything...
it's memory time for them. runs through 1:43:30 SORRY IT'S LONG YOU'RE CR YOU GOTTA LIVE WITH THIS.]

[ah these familiar hands... thinks fondly (no) to the time he died to one.
anyway, yikes. charles is frozen for a moment, before he looks to gregor...]

Two again, huh. How is Rodya taking it?

[hewwo... if gregor is passing through the north area of the mega park, he'll see charles perched on the jungle gym, holding an ice cream cone. he waves over at gregor.]
Gregor! Get some of ice cream—they've got a lot of flavours available.

[left at charles' room is a little package with the following:
-a stuffed bean
-a couple different biographies of galactic explorers
-a pocketwatch pendant that has space inside for a photo or really small object, when opened.
and a note:]
Thought of you when I found these. Rodya says I have to tell you she helped, she dragged me out- stuck me with all the writing, though, doesn't that just figure?
Anyway. Thanks for everything so far, bud.

[charles is at the junoboard, looking like he's drawing something on his i.r.i.s.]
[we're at the water park, where gregor appears to be debating the merits of just hopping into the water, clothes and all.
it's hot. he's dying. he actually has a t-shirt on, thanks to the broken climate control, which exposes... well, frankly, a mess. he's very nearly covered head to toe in that rust. it's staining his clothes.]

[I MISSED THIS I'M SORRY TEEJ anyway charles just has the rust on his throat right now but also he is rainbow-coloured. the colours shift with the lighting like a disco ball. dw about it.]
