Watch out for minor earthquakes.]

Can I have my rescue knife and my regular knife back?

[in_the_chair.insanejournal.com]

[eyes him]

You gonna be able to handle them all right?

[analyze_that.insanejournal.com]

I think so. And more importantly, I'm going to need them for getting food and stuff, so I'd rather have them back now.

[in_the_chair.insanejournal.com]

...

Okay. I'll get 'em out for you when we go back.

[analyze_that.insanejournal.com]

[nods]

Second thing, and this is another you may have to take my word on this, but you guys can stop hiding the grain ration right now. In fact, I'm going to need my share for today or tomorrow to pay someone back.

[in_the_chair.insanejournal.com]

Lemme know who it is and I can deliver it.

[analyze_that.insanejournal.com]

Uh huh. And you're going to grind it and bake with it too?

[in_the_chair.insanejournal.com]

... uh. Well, no. You know how shitty I am at cooking.

[analyze_that.insanejournal.com]

Not your strong suit, no.

Look, if you're worried, I'll let you grind it for me. I should be fine after that, but I at least owe it to Almaz to bake him something. And I was thinking about figuring out some pasta, like spaghetti next.

Of course I'm worried. The last thing I want is for you to end up in a coma again.

[analyze_that.insanejournal.com]

[slumping a little lower, and doesn't respond for a moment]

...and I don't want to be in a coma again either. But I don't want you and Mits working yourselves to death, either.

[in_the_chair.insanejournal.com]

I'm healthy again after a damn long time spent recovering. ... Mits needs to rest, though.

[analyze_that.insanejournal.com]

Yeah. At the very least, I can go back to getting wall cabbage again, and collecting the fish from the traps and keeping them working. Stuff like that. Hunting lizards with traps, if I have to.

[in_the_chair.insanejournal.com]

[... slow nod]

I can't argue with that. We need all the help we can get.

[analyze_that.insanejournal.com]

Yeah. I figured as much. I'll see if I can figure out the lizard traps--they should work with the bigger lizards if scaled right, but they'd be dangerous.

[in_the_chair.insanejournal.com]

Let's stick with small for now.

[analyze_that.insanejournal.com]

Okay. Fair enough.

[in_the_chair.insanejournal.com]

Anything else?

[analyze_that.insanejournal.com]

[thinks about it, then shakes his head]

It can wait.

[in_the_chair.insanejournal.com]

You sure?
