We really are.

[sighs deeply.]

S'not gonna be the same without both of them here. But, it hasn't been the same without anyone we've lost.

[polyglotti]

...Yeah.

[She sighs.]

Is this going to happen every week until that stupid party?

[ontrend]

Or until we hit twenty, maybe.

[he sighs.]

Guest list is twenty, and we're gonna be at twenty-five after tomorrow. At the rate we've been going...

[polyglotti]

It will be at nineteen in three more weeks, which ends right before the party.

[He's probably right, three more weeks of murder trials.]

[ontrend]

Yeah, so...

[he sighs. unless multiple people decide to get their murderhands on and we have a body pileup, that timing's about right.]

Ugh, this sucks.

[polyglotti]

[...]

You...have a life to get back to after this, right? Somewhere to be, somewhere happy?

[ontrend]

...yeah. I'd finally found somewhere I could really be happy, and then I up and died.

[pathetic!!]

What about you...? The fact that you're asking about this makes me worried.

[polyglotti]

I finally got to see the world outside of my small village for the first time, and then I up and died. I'd like to see more of it.

[She is pretending she didn't hear that last part whoops]

[ontrend]

[hE NOTICES THAT. but after she got mad at him the other day he is going to avoid poking at it for now.]

I hope you get the chance to. Let's both get the hell out of here.

[polyglotti]

That would be nice.

[She's trying to smile. Trying.]

My older brother was actually supposed to go on the same expedition I'm on. But he chickened out at the last moment. He didn't want me or our cousin going at all, so I had to promise him that we would be back in the spring.

I...I would like to keep that promise, if I could.

[ontrend]

...that's double the reason to get you out, then. It's important to keep promises.

[he smiles, then holds out a pinky to her. pinky promise!]

Here, I'll make one too. I'll do whatever I can to help you get out of here.

[polyglotti]

[A pinky promise! She hasn't done one of those in a long time.

She holds up her pinky too, but doesn't link them quite yet.]

Only if you let me help you get out of here too. It's a team effort, you hear me?

[ontrend]

Team effort, you got it!

[ :3 ]

[polyglotti]

Good.

[Pinkie swear!]

I'm holding you to that.

[ontrend]

Right back at you, Tuuri.
