[suddenlycaptain]

Right now I do.

[ Matine should have known. But something had happened to her out there. Carolyn remembers seeing things through her eyes all too well. ]

voice;

[20mentholkools]

They want us to go out there.

[As in: maybe Carolyn should stay here, if she's concerned about that.]

voice;

[suddenlycaptain]

They always do.

[ This is no different than any other time. She'll go. ]

voice;

[20mentholkools]

Ain't usually waiting for us to make the choice.

voice;

[suddenlycaptain]

It knows people will follow the ones that are already out there.

voice;

[20mentholkools]

And you're gonna be one of them.

voice;

[suddenlycaptain]

Yeah, I am.

voice;

[20mentholkools]

Letting that survival instinct slip, Carolyn?

[Not that he wasn't considering going out himself, already starting to think that moving was looking like their better option these days. But he likes to make her say these things first.]

voice;

[suddenlycaptain]

No.

[ The response is immediate, like the jaws of his jackal snapping closed on bone -- though the creature seems quite content to just listen as she pets him. ]

But sitting here isn't doing anything. It doesn't give us anything to work with.

voice;

[20mentholkools]

Haven't been finding anything to work with out there, either.

voice;

[suddenlycaptain]

Have you been looking?

voice;

[20mentholkools]

We all have. You know what's out there.

[AKA hadn't really expected Shepard's attempts to turn up anything new.]

voice;

[suddenlycaptain]

Shepard found the door.

voice;

[20mentholkools]

Thinking she found it again?

[Good thing or bad thing, who knows.]

voice;

[suddenlycaptain]

If she's unlucky.

voice;

[20mentholkools]

Think you wanna find it?

voice;

[suddenlycaptain]

No.
