[sabigoe]

Huh? Oh! Um... you can pin it wherever you want on the band.

[sictransitgloriamundi]

[a pause. probably too long of a pause. definitely too long of a pause.

...

just fucking stabs it right into the hat.]

[sabigoe]

[ That's an awkwardly long pause that makes Fio feel comfortable just standing around. But she's very quiet and patient! She jumps a little when he finally stabs his hat... ]

Uh... yeah! Like that! Now you can wear it on your head for everyone to see the pretty seashell.

[sictransitgloriamundi]

[places hat back on his head.

...

. . .]

Cool.

[sabigoe]

[ Now he and Skulduggery can match! Still, a little embarrassed to openly express too much joy in front of him, but there's another small smile, as well as a light bounce on her heels. ]

Uh-huh! It's really cool. I'm glad you like it. There was a snail on the island with a shell kind of like that one...

[ Speaking of the island, that reminds her about the nice things she wanted to bring up. There's a lot of scary, horrible things that she still remembers... but a lot of nice things too. ]

Um... I liked seeing the ocean again. And I got to pick seashells... I used to collect seashells with my family! Then I finally got to do it again with my new family. It made me really happy. Thank you for bringing us there.

[sictransitgloriamundi]

[oh god those were so many words and he barely listened to half of them. how are conversations supposed to happen when you're not actively just terrorizing someone. that's so much easier.

oh god he's been quiet too long again she probably expects a response.]

... Okay.

[that was terrible skulduggery is gonna divorce him.]

[sabigoe]

[ Unsettled by the silence once again... but she waits expectantly. ]

Yeah! [ Beaming, unbothered by that short response. Look, she's happy again! And thinks he's listening. At least he said something. She has a friend that's not much of a talker either. Quietly she hopes Levania shows up on the ship someday...

And now Fio is going to say even more words. ] And I enjoyed the camp too! I liked the flowers... I didn't really recognize any of them, but I liked picking them!

[sictransitgloriamundi]

They... Probably wildflowers. North American. Doesn't really narrow it down...

[he's dying. this is what dying feels like.]

[sabigoe]

The wildflowers were super pretty. [ Even if they might seem like poor imitations, she genuinely thought they were lovely and had an enjoyable time flower picking... that's all that matters! She hopes she can do that again someday. ] If you don't know their names, it's okay.

[ A brief pause, then she realizes she should probably ask questions too. Asides from talking about "nice things", she remembers Skulduggery telling her she could ask questions too. At first, she thought she was going to bolt off after dropping off the gift. But now... she doesn't look ready to leave yet. ]

Um... do you have a favorite flower, Mister Captain?

[sictransitgloriamundi]

... I've always liked the idea of orchids.

[sabigoe]

Orchids! I've seen pictures of those! I like them too. [ It seems she's fond of most flowers though. But orchids sound good to keep in mind for future gift ideas. She wonders if Skulduggery knows. ] I also really like white roses, sunflowers... and forget-me-nots.

[ This doesn't feel so bad, asking questions like this. At least for her, anyway. Still, she shuffles her feet a bit nervously. ]

What about... a favorite color? Do you have a favorite color?

[sictransitgloriamundi]

... Black, I suppose.

[...]

... Do... you, have a favorite color...

[sabigoe]

Me too! I like black! [ Especially since it gives her a fond reminder of her dark monster bestie from The Cage. ] My favorites are also... um, gold! White... [ A pause. ] Oh!

[ She pulls up her sleeve to show off her friendship bracelet from Darcy, woven in those three exact colors. It's hardly ever removed, along with the capacity core from Jade. ]

Darce made this for me, back at the camp. I heard you got one too?

[sictransitgloriamundi]

Yes.

[... wait.]

... It's. Inside. Right now.

[it's on his wrist.]

[sabigoe]

Oh, okay. Maybe you can show it to me next time.

[ And she's almost accepting of that answer...

Wait. Looking down, she finally notices the one on his wrist. That sure looks suspiciously like the one that she watched Darcy make at the camp. ]

Didn't Darce make that one?

[sictransitgloriamundi]

[. . .]

... No.

[sabigoe]

...oh.

[ Strange, this one has similar colors to the bracelet with the bad word that she's already forgotten by now. ...She's not going to lean in closer to further confirm this though. ]

Who gave you that one?

[sictransitgloriamundi]

... No one.

[fuuuuuck]

[sabigoe]

... [ A pause. She's having a hard time believing that. But maybe... ] I think I get it. It's a secret, huh?

[sictransitgloriamundi]

[VISIBLE RELIEF]

Yes. A secret.

[sabigoe]

[ She thinks he just owns two friendship bracelets now. How nice. ]

I understand then. I know secrets are important!

[ So she won't ask about it anymore!!! ]

[sictransitgloriamundi]

[...]

Okay. Cool.

[. . .]

[sabigoe]

Yeah! [ ... ] Um...

...

[ She's not out of questions. She's just thinking of which one to ask next. ]

[sictransitgloriamundi]

[. . .]

[sabigoe]

[ There is a lot of favorite things she could ask about. She thinks long and hard. ]

...

Mister Captain?

[ That's it. Staring, as if waiting for permission to speak yet even more words. ]
