Mess Hall mingle post

[moextispicy]

[It's Tuesday, everyone's favorite day in the Mess Hall. Today, camp has decided to accompany the soup with a generous supply of various anti-nausea remedies, from a wide variety of ginger flavored things to Pepto Bismol. It would probably increase the ominousness of the soup to noncannibals if anything actually could at this point.

[Does not recognise modern anti-nausea meds, but she can recognise the signs of a hangover. Also steadfastly ignoring the soup.]

You don't look very well.

[moextispicy]

Mi- the usual assortment, I guess. A few very good friends, some more casual friends, lots of friendly acquaintances... I like it here, overall.

[runstowardsfire]

You don't mind home at all?

[moextispicy]

I'll return there eventually, anyway. Why shouldn't I enjoy being here while I am?

[runstowardsfire]

You're very certain you'll be going home . . .

[moextispicy]

Everyone does eventually.

[runstowardsfire]

SO it's just a matter of when we're let out.

[:(]

[moextispicy]

Mm-hmm. Why, do you have something important to go back to?

[runstowardsfire]

[That's deflection.]

My family. And my steading.

[moextispicy]

[I'm good at that!]

Steading?

[runstowardsfire]

The place I'm responsible for.

[moextispicy]

You know that time doesn't pass for most people here, right?

[runstowardsfire]

So I've heard.

It means that I won't miss anything happening at home, but I'd miss home anyway.

[moextispicy]

Mi- I guess there's no way around that.

[runstowardsfire]

But it's still there--I can feel it.

[moextispicy]

Feel it?
