Third as well? Derp.

[Robert remembers Lucy, and she is being so damn adorably cheerful that there is no way he cannot walk right up to her and smile in her direction.]

Lucy! You're looking absolutely glowing today. It's been far too long since we've talked... are you keeping well?

[He's definitely a lot less awkward since the last time they had a conversation. Is that actual social competence he has there? ... Huh. Yes it is.]

[semper_cogitans]

In that case! [Robert smiles and turns to a new page of his journal, filtering it to himself before writing "Grocery List:" at the top of the filtered area in his neat handwriting, then scribing down the aforementioned items.]

Shall we start, then?

[semper_cogitans]

[All of these things are getting promptly recorded - and Robert looks up jauntily at the last note, grinning wide.]

Little sandwiches, huh? [He probably isn't aware of the custom that preceded it.] Why little ones? We could have regular-sized ones too, if people wanted, right?

[semper_cogitans]

[Robert's never gone to a party in his life. Save maybe... one or two of Benjamin's, and even then...]

Hey, we can always have both! [Robert jots this down in his handy-dandy notebook journal, alongside the other notes.]

[semper_cogitans]

Hmm... let's see - tea, maybe? A lot of my friends like tea. And there's coffee, and soda, and other beverages like water - or fresh fruit juices...

[... This is going to be a long list, isn't it?]

[semper_cogitans]

Mangoes, huh? [One of the crops that probably took a beating during the Great Cleansing, what with where they grow.] Those are pretty hard to find on my world - so it'd be nice to find some again!

That's the cool thing about this place - a lot of the foods here are much different from what Terra has.

[It's called cultural and dietary variation - which Terra didn't have much of.]

[semper_cogitans]

It's a wonderful place. Peaceful, scientific and technological but with a respect and appreciation for nature... [Robert's tone is almost dreamy.] I miss it a lot sometimes, here.

[semper_cogitans]

Still am! As much as I can be in this place, anyway. I try to keep up my work, but... only so far that goes, here. Can't get my stuff back to the Randi Institute...

[His smile falters, just a moment, before it bounces back almost twice as strong though more than a little of that is fake.] Hey, but, one day I'm sure we'll all be able to go home with our memories intact! And then I'll hand it over to the Institute and they'll love it.

[Robert's expression softens a little.] I spent a lot of time composing data - writing reports, compiling information - and studying the external and internal workings of various species. It's fun for me, and I dare say some parts could be fun for other people, too! ... Though I haven't met any other people who like to do reports for fun, yet. [So sad.]

I myself wouldn't mind being able to visit other peoples' multiverses entirely, and freely! That'd be really cool. And then I could be with Don and there wouldn't be any problem... [Okay, there'd still be problems. But he's glossing those over.]
