[Hello everyone it's your fave weird smiling 11-year-old.]

I... just wanted to say — I did it, Mr. Greed! I finally got Top 10 in pinball, sir, just like you requested! [It's true, thanks to Han she's completely overtaken the scoreboards; hallelujah.] I, um, got all top 10 spots, too! Just in case you wanted me to have all ten... I'm sorry, my memory's a little fuzzy... I'm very sorry! But I did it. I'm glad I can finally move on to my next chore on my to-do list... I keep hearing these distant pinball machine noises in my head, b-but then I realize I'm just tired.

I didn't know games would be so hard! It was very frustrating... I almost frowned through it...

[She chucks very faintly, smiling wide.]

It's too bad that we're no longer near a planet. I-I think my crew would be very happy to have more games on board, like pinball. Or maybe better smelling clothing detergent. I like the kind that smells like flowers. I'll remember for the next place we stop by!

[AH, RIGHT. ANYWAY.]

Actually, I was... going to come on here for a request. If that's okay.

Ah. Well.

....

We need a new blender on the Huntress.

...

A-and if anyone has any spare table cloths, we could trade for those as well. There are large holes in the table currently.

...

And if anyone has something to help remove scorch marks...

[This ship is a f$%*ing mess.]

[................................ Oh.]

You were...?

[She had wondered. If she'd run into someone like her, outside of Mariejois.]

How long have you been... um... free?

[wolfuncaged]

I was.

[Then he totally murdered his master, it was the BEST. ]

Including the time I have spent in other worlds... eleven years now.

[Her hand compulsively reaches behind her, massaging the tender flesh there.

It's been months since the Fishmen branded over her slave brand, but it still itches sometimes, feels tight and rough.]

... Th-that's as long as I've been alive, I think.

[She smiles a little more.]

I'm glad you're free.

[wolfuncaged]

[He notices the action, but doesn't press her about it. There are some things that no one wants to talk about.

It puts into perspective. How long he's been free. It's a long time, even if it doesn't feel it. ]

As I am for you.

[And he honestly, truly means that. ]

[scrubscrub]

[She gives a genuine, wide smile.]

Thank you! We'll... We'll keep... working on it.

[It's vaguely spoken, but it's Koala... trying to accept.

Trying to restart again, since being pulled from the Sun Pirate's ship.]

[wolfuncaged]

[Fenris offers the smallest of smiles, but from him, it's a lot. ]

It is difficult, but it will come in time. We are lucky to have plenty of it.
