[saltwaterlungs]

But wasn't it fun getting to be smug afterwards? [ Smug is one of Darcy's top 3 emotions. ]

[sictransitgloriamundi]

Well, yeah, obviously.

[saltwaterlungs]

So imagine what it'll be like for things bigger than just not murdering people for a couple of hours. Weirdly, the harder you work at something, the more rewarding it is when you succeed at it.

[sictransitgloriamundi]

That doesn't even sound true.

[saltwaterlungs]

Literally like more than half of the books in the library follow the same pattern of 'someone struggles to do a thing and then succeeds in doing a thing', dude, [ she presumes, ] honest to God, it does.

[sictransitgloriamundi]

[...]

You mean my library of fiction.

[saltwaterlungs]

We've had two Dr Watsons on this fucking ship. I thought the whole different world-thing was that the stories were all true somewhere or something.

[sictransitgloriamundi]

They're real in their own realities. And unrealistic expectations in this one.

[saltwaterlungs]

So when you made this reality, you skipped plumbing or an actual sea floor or weather that changes, but you specifically wrote into the coding 'hard work does not pay off into any real reward'. Specifically. You put that in here specifically.

[sictransitgloriamundi]

That does sound like something I would do, actually.

[saltwaterlungs]

Yeah, yeah I said that and immediately thought better of it.

[ Shrug, ] Seems like a really easy thing to prove me wrong about.

[sictransitgloriamundi]

[nods firmly] By continuing to never work hard and yet somehow always succeeding.

[saltwaterlungs]

[ This more than any of their prior argument makes her wish she'd handed the contract over to the mutineers. ]

Is this what success looks like.

[sictransitgloriamundi]

It's more than you're having.

[saltwaterlungs]

In what way? [ Famous last words. ]

[sictransitgloriamundi]

Can you leave.

[saltwaterlungs]

[ Eyeroll, stands to leave, ] You're the one who keeps coming out here, dude.

[sictransitgloriamundi]

That isn't what I meant.

[saltwaterlungs]

[ She realizes what he meant and then just.

Pretends like she didn't hear him and keeps walking.

Does not look back.

Darcy 0 Captain too many to count. ]
