You can really stall out on writing a letter... there's so much time to think about what you want to say.

Even writing a text doesn't feel like as much pressure.

[outdistanced]

It's weird, right? Why is texting so much easier? It's practically the same thing.

[fightolive]

Maybe because you know you'll get a response back quickly? But a letter takes so much time?

[outdistanced]

Maybe. It's a little less pressure that way, maybe. I always felt like I needed to have something important to say in the letters, but I never really did...

You spent a lot of time baking in the healing center, huh?

[fightolive]

It doesn't have to be that important. Sometimes it's just nice to hear from a friend.

That was more baking than I've ever done before, not too much else to do.

[outdistanced]

Sure, but I'm still used to just being able to talk in person.

Yeah... Some of the cookies were a little burnt? But it's more than I could have done.

[fightolive]

Sorry about that... I wasn't sure how long to leave them in the first few times.

[outdistanced]

No, it's fine. I'm not really one to judge, anyway. I only just learned how to make rice balls, like, a week or two ago.

Honestly, I would have rather been bored than not.

[ My guy... are you doing ok.... ]

We were both learning some new skills while we had the time.

[outdistanced]

[ he's never had to cook before what do you want from him ]

I guess. I don't think they're things I'd need back home, but if it gives us something to do here.

[fightolive]

Sometimes you learn things, not because they're needed, but because they're enjoyable.

[ Pretty sure that's part of living. ]

[outdistanced]

You all keep telling me stuff like that, but I still think running is usually plenty.

...I did learn some stuff about flowers, I guess, but I still don't think I'm good at making bouquets or anything.

[fightolive]

Did you like learning about them?

[outdistanced]

I guess? [ he shrugs. ] It was fine. Kind of helped me keep the different demiflora straight, too, since I've been reading about them.

[ i'm just glad it made some of them smile. ]

[fightolive]

[Aw, cute. That's the vibe he gets in return.]

There are a lot of flowers out there. I don't know if I could keep them all straight.

[outdistanced]

[ stop that. stop perceiving. ]

It's not like I've memorized them all. I could maybe name the common ones, or the ones demiflora or named after, but the rest? No way.

[fightolive]

[ She is v i e w i n g ]

It's still an improvement, right?

[outdistanced]

[ CEASE. ]

...Yeah. It's something. Not really how I would've wanted to spend my time, still, but it gave me something to do.

[fightolive]

Most of the week was usually pretty quiet... I'm glad you found something for all that down time.

[outdistanced]

Aside from all the curses, you mean?

Everyone kept telling me to learn how to cook, too. I managed a few things with some help, but I don't think I'll ever be a master chef.

[fightolive]

How many did you get cursed with...?

You don't have to be a master at it. I don't think I'll ever get an award for baking, but it was fun.

[outdistanced]

Just a couple, I think? But they've been pretty consistent about throwing them all out there.

...I guess it was kind of nice to surprise a few people with it.

[fightolive]

I... think I was only cursed once?

[Anyway.]

It's nice to learn a new skill you can share with people you're close to.

[outdistanced]

Pretty lucky, all things considered.

It's fine, I guess. I know other people can do it better.
