I was thinking that maybe we could go together to explore more of the area. I don't know how long we should go, or what we might find, but we could cover a lot of ground. I might find more plants, or information.
I don't know, it could be a silly idea to leave for awhile.
[ It takes a second for him to really have it sink in that she's asking to go on a trip with him. He stares at the feed and it sort of looks like it froze on his end, probably, until he speaks. ]
Oh.
It doesn't sound silly. The natives seem like they're getting testy in the heat, maybe it'll be good to get a break.
So you want to go with me then? [ She actually wouldn't go without him, but she doesn't want to let him in on that. She can run off on little errands too, okay? ]
Given the things we've faced back home, I doubt there's much here that could hinder us. The mental side effects that this world is fond of is something to worry about more. We'll have to keep aware of how the other is behaving.
Then we'll just use the techniques we've been practicing here when the corruption starts to overpower us. I imagine, we're more aware of it in the other. I mean, I have a harder time seeing it in myself.

I don't know whether it's wise to leave when people might need us, but getting a break has it's appeal.

Maybe I'll just kiss you often, as a caution.

I don't think my willpower will be an issue, but I guess we'll have to see what those woods throw at us.

So instead, he nods. ]
Mm. I'll see you later, then.
[ And he goes to shut off his side of the feed. ]
