Oh. Was it
I mean. Did it help? Doing that? It's okay if it did, you know.

Well, I can agree the big pink tree was a LITTLE much. The crew got carried away, a little, I think.
If we're still here for my birthday, something small is okay.

[holyposition]

I don’t know. It felt cathartic, in the moment, but it’s not worth it if he’ll be following me around all riled up over it.

If we can get away with anything small and quiet in this place, I’ll consider us blessed.

[kobes]

Yes, that seems to be the issue with multiple people here. Getting angry or lashing out is what they want.
If he doesn't leave you alone, tell me, okay? I'll deal with it.

When's your birthday again? I'll make sure there's a naturally-colored tree for it.

[holyposition]

I'm not being harassed, don't worry. But I'll tell you if that changes.

June 6th. But you might not see me, Hawk will insist on occupying all my time.

[kobes]

Okay, good. By anyone, I mean. Even the crew. I know they can be
Prickly.

Soooo it'll be different from the average day how, exactly?

[holyposition]

Oh, shush. I see you every day!

[kobes]

Well, we TEXT every day. Sometimes you are otherwise indisposed, Timothy.

[holyposition]

And you're not?

[kobes]

I can't imagine what you mean by that. Not at all.

[holyposition]

You can't lie to me when I've witnessed it!

[kobes]

Hmmmm, seems like unfounded accusations to divert attention to meeeee.

[holyposition]

I know there's no diverting your attention, you little perv

[kobes]

Not when I've been INVITED to observe! I'm not going to be rude and let my attention wander!

[holyposition]

Good. Pay attention. When this mess is over, I bet Hawk could teach you some things about being in charge.

[kobes]

Is that so?

I'll wait for him to tell me to pay attention then. Since he's in charge.

[holyposition]

Alright, it’s not that I CAN’T be. He's just exceptionally good at it.

[kobes]

I can't tell if you're being informative or teasing me or both.

[holyposition]

Both 😊
