It was rhetorical. [Stop saying smurfs. Is it making anything better?]

[pneumo]

[ No, sob ]

Oh....

[passingthrough]

[She walks in silence, but she doesn't try to walk faster or go through something solid to shake him.]

[pneumo]

[ That's a relief at least! He did expect her to kind of walk through the first available wall. But hey; he'll take it, walking quietly alongside her. ]

[passingthrough]

[After some extra silence.] Are you getting along better with your crewmates?

[pneumo]

........

One of them is still an angry ghost, and the other one calls me the creeper.

[passingthrough]

[She could point out which of his actions might be leading to this, but she's played that game before and it doesn't really get anywhere. Maybe a little commiserating.] That sucks.

[pneumo]

It's okay! They don't try to kill me or anything. [ Which is a bonus over home, technically. ]

And...I got to have a walk with you.

[passingthrough]

That is a really low bar. [Kind of a sad one. Reminds her of some of her own low bars. She looks over at him.] Why do you like me this?

[pneumo]

Having walks with people...? [ He looks over, tilting his head a little. ]

Because I don't get to do it a lot. It's way better than walking alone everywhere.

[passingthrough]

[She nods slowly.] It is better than walking alone.

[pneumo]

Yeah...I do a ton of that already, so this is super-nice.

[passingthrough]

Have you met any other vampires yet?

[pneumo]

I think I met one...but he likes biting way more than I do. [ But then again so did the vampires back home, so. ]

[passingthrough]

Sorry to hear that. ...Do you think he's biting people against their will here?

[pneumo]

Nah, he said he does it so they like it! I've never heard of it, but he seemed suuuuper-confident.

[passingthrough]

Well, you said you make it not hurt too. I hadn't heard of that one.

[pneumo]

Well yeah...but usually that's just me! I'm kinda weird.

[passingthrough]

Even among vampires at home?

[pneumo]

Yep. Every time they bite someone it really hurts! I just kinda make people feel woozy.

[passingthrough]

Are you finding enough blood here? [Safely.]

[pneumo]

[ Awwww hot!mom are you worried ]

Uh-huh! Ramse fed me--and so did the wolf♥

[passingthrough]

[No. Maybe. Fine, yes.]

Hey, that's actually someone's name. [One out of two anyway.]

[pneumo]

I told you I knew names!

[passingthrough]

Consider me surprised anyway. No good nicknames available?
