[Spoilsport. Goodness.]

Well...yes! It's kind of my job, now, haha....

[They're all going to die.]

I mean, we haven't crashed or had anything totally disastrous happen with the flight system, so I must be doing something right?

[sylphystia]

I... [Like Dezel could do a better job, honestly. He's fucking blind.] I guess.

My augment is tactical-- spying, basically. The irony isn't lost on me. [It really is good to see Lailah again, even though he sort of... fucked up her pact the last time they saw each other. Awkward.]

[sansseraph]

I'm sure that your wind powers would be better suited to spying than my fire.

[Lailah's forgiven him. Dezel just really needs to work on forgiving himself.]

Have you been doing alright on the ship?

[sylphystia]

I have no interest in doing anything Atroma wants me to do.

[No fun allowed.

... That's a good question, though, and Dezel hesitates. She's asking about his wellbeing and he's, uh, not used to it.]

Yeah. [EVERYTHING'S FINE FOR NOW............. ANYWAY...........] They're not the best. The air is stale and nothing's alive, but we've managed.

[sansseraph]

But you'd do it if we needed it, right?

[Can you feel the sunshine through her voice, Dezel? She's aiming it squarely at you.]

I guess there aren't many opportunities to get any fresh air. I'm sorry, it must be harder on you as a wind seraph.

[sylphystia]

[THAT SUNSHINE... he's so weak...]

... I guess.

[A soft huff.]

You don't have to worry about me. Don't you have a pair of idiots to coddle?

[sansseraph]

[Good because she is the Sunshine Queen.]

You're as important to me as they are, Dezel. Besides, I don't think I coddle them too much.

[....]

Ohhh, I hope I haven't been overdoing it or anything. I know they're both so young, but...

[Now look at what you did, Dezel!]

[sylphystia]

[He makes a strange noise halfway between surprise and embarrassment. STOP THAT, LAILAH, HOLY SHIT. He's going to feel WORSE.]

They've missed you a lot. [smooooooooooooooth subject change there]

[sansseraph]

[He'll take her feelings and like it!!

...Awww, that's sweet of Dezel. She's sure that also means he's missed her a lot, too.]

I'm sorry I made you all wait so long. I hope I can make it up to all of you now that I'm here.

[sylphystia]

[He has.]

You don't need to make up for anything. Just--

[He shakes his head invisibly.]

Just be there for them. [fjkflksdklf he's so bad at this.]
