[ he's not sure which of these fools he's meant to be watching more. ]
You don't have to appraise the space, man, it's not like they're putting the lounge on the market. [ teasing. ] It's kinda cute, Siff. Stars are a good theme, but I feel like we should've picked rocks for ours then. We upgraded, too. [ but while you two are doing this, he will toddle off to go sit down and curl up on one of the sofas to get comfy. ]
[ Seriously what is Jacopo doing. Just hands Jacopo the water while peering over at the corner he was at like ??? ]
Oh... mmm, maybe we should move a light over there..?
[ Taking this advice seriously. Perks a little at that mention, still looking a bit embarrassed. ] That's true... sticking with our gems theme might've made more sense. Is your lounge's aesthetics space themed too?
[ The look of someone who wants to see... Will come take a seat nearby after. ]
It doesn't feel like too much time has passed yet.. but, then again, I think my sense of time is still a bit. [ Well, shrug. ]
[ i see this is one of your missions. anyway he sort of stares at this clover like he's not sure what to do with that but he figures this is siffrin's problem now. ]
We went with stars and kind of industrial? You guys can come by another time and see, we just swapped over on Monday because we got bored with the beige, too. [ but he does sort of frown a little. ]
Jacopo's right though. We have a pattern that's gonna happen each week now that we're here. Thursdays are the lockdown days, and if I have to guess probably the day people are going to come back from some shitty trip with all kinds of injuries or missing limbs. We just need to be careful. But I get it. Sometimes days blend together.
I get that some people don't want to personalize things while we're here because it's a sign of getting comfortable, but if we're stuck here we may as well be a little comfortable? [ just a thought. ]
But yes, those. Has anybody explained those to you guys?
[ he is including siffrin solely because, uh, he's not sure how much they may remember from theirs at any given time. ]
[ What the fuck. Goes to include this in the status change I GUESS!!! Too bad Siffrin is a bit distracted and will have to just notice this later. ]
I'm not too used to having them so I forget to keep track on them most of the time..
[ The phones, they mean. Timeloop problems and lack of technology and more just magic stuff problems. But otherwise they can keep the conversation going, Siffrin actually seems to have no problem with that? They're vibing more with just listening actually. Staying quiet as they do, but peering over at Jacopo's now apparent irritation.
Nodding in agreement to the comfort. May as well. It isn't a permanent home but it's nice to see everyone else making the most of their lounge to be comfy. They do take a moment to think about the trips. ]
..Some of them will have you feeling like you spent your entire life there. And make use of people you care about. I remember both of mine being that way.
There's a difference between being less miserable and settling in.
[ So he agrees with you, Jonas. SIFFRIN YOU COULD HAVE WIPED THIS OFF? Okay. Well, it's there.
Jacopo is understanding that Siffrin is probably not used to phones... It's hard to become accustomed unless you start using them a lot. He doesn't know that he himself in Heaven just never used the phone much. ]
I've talked to a couple of people and East about them. I'm going in with expectations and it being worse than what I expect.
If you don't get too comfortable you can't be complacent, but not getting comfortable at all means you aren't going to notice certain things, too.
[ glad there is just a clover now. but he nods along because siff was bad about using their phone in heaven, too, and it's a relief (?) they recall these details. ]
That's probably the best way to approach it. I've seen a lot of you come back from these things not even having a clue who you are, let alone who must of us are. They do something to your mind that... even logic can't always break. We just have to be prepared for anything and know we still won't be ready.
[ It's fine, they'll wipe it off when they leave. Also the talk of phone does make them start to pat their pockets, which they take out a silver small coin first. Stare at it for a bit before pocketing it again and finding their phone.
Oh, okay, it is here. Peeks at the network, makes face, puts the phone away. Though takes a moment longer absorbing and listening to the explanation anyway. Even if they've gone through it, the mess of looping since then does jumble up a few things. ]
The risks of going on one more than once, too... [ Sinks into sofa chair. ] The excursions really do make it hard to prepare for but I know some have gone on trips where they still remember everything.
There's that, too, yeah. [ a nod to siffrin's point. ] It's going to be hard to say until we're there. And we don't know who is going, or who they'll be with, or if they'll be able to keep it together to get back out. I don't... think I've heard of anybody dying on these trips, but that doesn't mean it hasn't happened.
... we did have someone not even a part of the project suddenly come back with a few of you on one though. That was weird.

The trips that apparently we can't really prepare for. They just spontaneously happen.
