hey, i get that. i'm not really the camping type either.
you can make it fun, though! there's stargazing, and toasted marshmallows...though i guess that's not really what we're in for here, huh?
maybe there'll be a chance for some of the normal variety at some point. more spooky stories by the campfire, less bloodthirsty monsters.

hope this isn't insensitive, but: are you saying you died before you came here?

[bad_habit]

oh yeah? shit, ya know anything about it at least? i legit have NEVER BEEN
i mean i KNO its a thing but
it ain't really my speed
i'm a creature of COMFORT
i don't rough it

jesus you sound like Charlie right now
we're gonna be stuck in a monster maze
and you're thinkin about toastin marshmallows to keep spirits up [It's not an insult, though it sounds a little like it. He misses Charlie something awful, he really got reliant on that endless optimism to keep him going through the bullshit and he maybe didn't realise it until it was gone.]

naw, it ain't insensitive
i mean
i been dead for like seventy fuckin' years. i been dead longer than i was alive, so like i guess i don't think about it much anymore...

[anciently]

yeah, i know some.
kinda had to do some camping out of necessity. been traveling a lot back home.

sounds like this charlie person has a good head on their shoulders!
sometimes you need little things to cheer you up when things are looking bleak. trust me.
i'm just trying to keep people's spirits up: that's all.

[ Very interesting to hear about the afterlife from Angel's world. She reads with furrowed brows, humming thoughtfully. ]

huh. yeah, i guess you get used to it.
that's really something though.
where i come from, they say you return to the lifestream after you die. become part of the planet again.

[bad_habit]

ya i thought that too, wasn't i surprised

[Actually he had never thought about it, until he was in it. If he's honest.]

not to be a downer
i dunno how it works in your world or whatever

but if it ain't, i hope you have a Charlie too. or become one
cause ya she's pretty great, even if she's being a HUGE pain in the ass

so what you're sayin is you know a thing or two about a thing or two??
good to know
what's the one piece of stuff you gotta make sure you got on ya
for 'roughin it'????

[anciently]

i'm not sure if i have a charlie or i am the charlie, but either way, i get what you're saying.
maybe she'll be brought here too, then you can introduce us!

oh...sorta?
and: shoes. some solid shoes.
trust me on that. if you're wearing holes in them, or they aren't supporting your feet, you'll be in a bad way.

[bad_habit]

well is there someone you travel with that is always obnoxiously upbeat trying to build people up or are you that person?
she'd probably make a better choice to try and be the voice of saving our world than i fucking am
for real

i do not wear shoes with holes in em
my shoes are always top notch
tho... i suppose not practical for this kinda shit

[anciently]

i guess that's usually me after all.
hey - i'm sure you're doing great. if she's the kind of person you're making her out to be, she'd be proud of what you've done so far.

gotcha. more fashion than function, huh?
no problem. i'm sure there's a more practical pair around here somewhere.
what size? i'll keep an eye out.
