Uh... I don't think all of them trust me? Or maybe that's not the right word, but I guess... They think this whole thing is weird, you know? They showed up and Wash was dating someone and had like... a life here. And it's kind of awkward. Plus, I think Tucker's pissed at him. He thinks Wash was happy here while they were fighting a war at home or something.

[lifetothefullest]

[He nods, considering all of that, finally taking a brief break from petting Lando.]

It'll probably take some time to get used to you and Washington's life here in general, because it would be a very sudden change for them; however, as awkward as it surely is it probably won't last. But does Tucker not understand how time here works?

[evocation]

Yeah, he knows. I don't know. Maybe he's upset because Wash was like...

[She frowns.]

This sounds shitty, but maybe he's upset that Wash wasn't just spending all of his time worrying and trying to get back.

[lifetothefullest]

[He nods again.]

That makes sense. Hopefully, if that is the case, it's also something that will fade with time, as he gets more used to what life is like here and realizes that isn't a realistic expectation.

Have you met Carolina?

[He's asking for a specific reason, and trusts Kyna's judgement on people.]

[evocation]

[She nods.]

Yeah. Why?

[lifetothefullest]

Because I've heard completely different things from different people but haven't met her myself, but I figured you'd have a more objective opinion.

[evocation]

She's... um, really intense? Wash trusts her. She doesn't seem bad or anything.

[lifetothefullest]

Okay, good. I'm going to presume I only need be concerned about how well she and Ephemera get along, rather than her being an issue in general.

[He's just pretty cautious about that sort of thing, especially after past experiences here, but he'd already been leaning toward the idea that Ephemera was a little too biased to give an objective view of any potential danger.]

[evocation]

I don't think she's going to start anything with Ephemera. Wash said that back home, she wanted a truce with him.

[lifetothefullest]

Good; we have enough problems without people fighting with each other needlessly.

[evocation]

Yeah, basically. Wash's team is fine, it's just... you know.

[lifetothefullest]

Yeah.

[The whole situation back in their world seems like a mess. But alright, for now Lance will just hope they're all reasonable, normal people, even if his experiences with the military types in Hadriel haven't been too great.]

Anything else noteworthy been happening?

[evocation]

[Hm. Well. She makes a face at him.]

I found out firsthand who Tucker is sleeping with, so if you can like... hypnotize me into forgetting that, that would be awesome.

[lifetothefullest]

[Lance scrunches his nose at that response.]

Unfortunately hypnosis doesn't work that way, so you're going to have to resort to regular therapy for dealing with that traumatic experience.

[evocation]

Come on, you don't just tell people that so they don't think you have mind control powers? I don't even get therapist BFF benefits?

[BFFs huh, Kyna?]

[lifetothefullest]

[Lance is quietly very pleased with the BFF comment, but tries not to call any attention to it.]

You totally would if it were possible, but you say that like people don't already think I have mind control powers.

[And in theory that'd be cool, but most of the time it just causes problems as though he has some magic mind-reading ability because he's a psychologist.]

[evocation]

[She grins.]

Maybe you do. What am I thinking right now?

[lifetothefullest]

I already used up my good answer to that awhile ago.

[evocation]

You can't think of any other jokes? Lame. I thought you were cool.

[lifetothefullest]

If it counts, I at least know you didn't actually think I was cool ever.

[Because lbr for all his good traits, being cool is not one of them and he's accepted this.]
