[messianic]

Oh... yeah, I can do that. It shouldn't take long, either. You're keeping some of the geese as pets?

[windeity]

dave caught 24 of them but luckily he only wants to keep four of them as pets.
i am making a goose coop?
and then the other 20 are for whoever wants geese i guess.

[messianic]

[...Dave why are you so much all the time.]

24 geese is so many geese... but got it. I'll make the collars different colors or patterns so you can tell the difference.

How's that?

[windeity]

that's what i said! originally i said two but we compromised at four.
that would be perfect! we still have to pick which ones we are keeping anyway.

[messianic]

[What a compromise...]

What basis are you picking them on, anyway? Personality?

[windeity]

the mildest ones, yeah. four girls.
we're hoping they'll lay eggs for us that we can eat too.

[messianic]

[... J... john...]

You're keeping four girls and hoping they'll lay eggs?

Don't you need a boy goose for that?

[windeity]

...fuck.
ok well! we will figure it out and find the least lethal boy goose.
gander? whatever.

[messianic]

[Oh my god John.]

Probably a good idea, yeah... Good luck with that, by the way. I don't even know how you tell goose gender.

[windeity]

shrug.
i'll make dave do it. he's the one who caught them and i have no idea how to tell either.

[messianic]

Sounds like a plan. I feel like trying to figure out all of this "living with nature" stuff is more complicated than I expected.

[windeity]

minato have you ever actually dealt with nature before...?
like before we showed up here.

[messianic]

[Don't sound so judgemental.]

I've lived in cities pretty much all my life.

[So.

No.]

[windeity]

oh. that makes sense.
i think dave has too.
i mean i lived in the suburbs but i know about camping and stuff.
...we might have to outsource for geese gender identification.

[messianic]

[They should outsource for everything, since Minato doesn't know anything about geese or wildlife.]

I wish I was more prepared for stuff like this, but it's not like we learned about geese or living in the woods or wildlife in school.

[windeity]

same here. not really, anyway.
but maybe that is why we are here now? whoever brought us here (mr. f or whoever) probably knew we would have no idea what's going on.
which is terrible.
but it makes us have to ask people for help and team up.
the teaming up thing, i think, is something he values a lot.

[messianic]

I think you're right about that. You've noticed it too, right? That a lot of the quests make us work together in new ways or with new groups. Like that's somehow something important here to Mr. F too.

[windeity]

you think maybe it's because mr. f doesn't have friends of his own?

[messianic]

I guess it's possible... or Mr. F knows that we need the power of friendship to resolve some sort of issue here.

[Can't knock the power of friendship, after all; he's seen it at work for himself.]

[windeity]

well it would be nice if he told us what the power of friendship could do in this case? if it is solving an issue, i wish we knew what KIND of issue.
besides the color thing.
but i wonder if there is something bigger than that.
what with the shadows and other monsters and stuff.

[messianic]

There's definitely more than just the color thing.

There has to be, right? Things like this don't just happen without there being some sort of reason. We just have to figure out what it is for ourselves.

Don't worry, John. We can do it.

[windeity]

i believe in us a lot more than i used to! which sounds bad, but i just mean we have all been working together for a while now and we are getting used to each other. so it means we are making progress and making friends.
trusting each other? that kind of thing.
and i think that is really good.
we will figure it out.
i just hope it is not too long from now.

[messianic]

Yeah, I guess I never really asked, now that I think about it... do you have something you need to get home to ASAP?

[windeity]

um.
yes? kind of.
but it can wait still i think.
you?

[messianic]

["Kind of"?]

No, I'm not in any real hurry. There's nothing I'm in a big rush to get back to, which helps, I guess.

What do you mean by "kind of"?
