...More than ready.

C'mon. Let's head back, Shin.

[With a small, satisfied grin, she's gonna nudge him with an elbow before turning to get outta here.]

[pointzeropercent]

[Nudges her back.]

What food would you have suggested for a name anyway?

[moodwrecker]

I dunno. Like I said, the guy I knew got his nickname because he liked sandwiches. But... I guess "Basil" is a food name, too.

[So is Aubrey possibly but we aren't talking about that.]

Isn't Clementine a name? Clem?

[pointzeropercent]

Clementine sounds more like a girl's name. It would be cute for Kanna, I think.

[If Kanna needed a new name.]

Basil wouldn't have been too bad though.

[moodwrecker]

...

I guess... both of you have some stuff in common, too.

[pointzeropercent]

We do. We get scared easily, don't we?

[moodwrecker]

Yeah. He's always been kind of anxious, but it really went off the rails after Mari died.

...It's weird. Out of all my old friends, I'm the one who met him first, but...

[Now? They couldn't be further apart.]

[pointzeropercent]

...I probably would have gone off the rails if Kanna had died, so I get it.

[It's easy to let the distance grow when things are uncomfortable and sad.]

When you go back, you'll have a chance to fix that at least.

[moodwrecker]

...I hope so. I hope Kel or someone was able to get him.
