I’m sorry… Is that person on the boat too? Or someone back home?

Silly, why are you sorry?

They're here.

It sounds like a tough situation all around, that’s all.

What do you think would make you happy then?

Not as tough as yours. And don't misunderstand, I'm trying to commiserate with you, but I'm feeling okay right now. You aren't, so I want to focus on your feelings. You're very sweet, though.

Hmmm, now that I don't know if I should tell you. I'm supposed to be listening to you, not giving you potentially bad ideas, haha!

I would complain more, but honestly I don’t quite know my feelings. I’m used to things either being too busy to process them or having my life so simplified I don’t have to face them…

[Rolls over again, huffing quietly]

If you say that, I’m going to wind up even more curious. Besides, I have plenty of bad ideas on my own, you wouldn’t need to worry about giving me any.

You can complain whenever you feel a desire to, then. It doesn't have to be on this phone call.

[ Sam laughs it muffled a bit by probably his pillow as he shifts around in his bed, trying to get comfortable with his stuffed narwhal. ]

I guess that's fair enough. One of two things would make me happy, I think.

Finding someone that loves me the same way I love them or just disappearing. I used to think disappearing would be the easier of the two, but I guess the joke's on me for that.

Careful. If you say that I may just start complaining to you all the time then. I enjoy complaining.

And…disappearing isn’t easy at all, take it from me.

I like the sound of your voice usually, so maybe I would enjoy it. I'd just have to figure out how to keep ya quiet when it gets annoying~. Have a favorite treat I can give you for that sometime?

Normally I'd say that's just because you're a super famous celebrity! ... However, considering I have the ability to make people forget and I still haven't been able to do it... I think I have to take your word as the hard truth.

What if I name something extra ridiculous just to make sure you can’t find it on the ship? Once my complaining starts, I won’t be silenced. Even by treats.

Bah?! That's soooo uncute. Everyone has a Sc*oby Snack they can't resist!!

I regret to inform you I’m not a terribly cute person.

[ very dramatic sigh. ]

Shame that. It becomes more and more obvious every day!

I just get even less cute from here on out. Give it time and exposure, you'll see.

Guess I'll just have to make space for someone uncute like you in my sea of cute.

A whole sea of cute? Maybe I should be even more uncute to help balance it out.

I guess if you want a challenge. Virga, Holmes, and Watson are going to need a whole ton of uncute to be truly balanced.

Oh, I'm quite aware. Two thirds of that ocean are staring at me as we speak. I'll strive to become the least cute version of myself then.

I'm glad you fully understand what you're up against.

What makes the uncute ocean dweller feel better, then? Since I gave my side of what would make me happy.

I'm feeling a bit better, so this counts, doesn't it?

Sure does, whatever works! I'll make note of "talking about random things" as a way to help you feel a little better in the future.

Helps me feel a bit more at ease.

Nothing wrong with that. What else you got to talk about up your sleeve?

I learned how to make marshmallows?

[ gasps excitedly. ] No. Way.

Jem showed me.
