our zooky...

I'd, ah. Empathize, but...

[vague little hand gesture. city full of the horrors.]

Y'know how it is.

[ She shoots him off a glance. ]

I guess this is kinda normal for you, huh?

It's... something like a break for me and Rodya, yeah. Not a great one, but not as bad as work.

Yeah, she's told me some things. It, uh—does somehow sound even worse.

More or less.

...sorry Shoma got wrapped up in-- whatever happened there.

.... Well. That's not really your fault or anything.

Yeah, I know it's not, but it still-- sounded like they went through a lot.

They did, but I think he’s doing a little better now. I’ve been keeping an eye on him… though, he’s sturdier than he looks.

...he's seemed like it so far, yeah. Guess he's a little on the younger side for all this, but-- he's managing.

[ There’s a furrow of her brow, displeased. ]

He’ll be okay. I mean, I’m worried too, but I have to remind myself not to worry too much.
