At this juncture I don't think its warranted to express any sort of surprise at the changing of our surroundings. I think it is entirely reasonable to assume 1) that this is going to continue to occur, and 2) that yes, it quite frightening and unwarranted, but is going to continue to happen and the sooner any of us accept this, the sooner we can,

...You aren't trying to tell me something, are you?

[stromkreis]

Neil, I wasn't speaking about you.

Strikes backspaced

[imthefavorite]

Okay. Good.

Who were you speaking about?

[stromkreis]

One of our new guests who insists on being an idiot under the guise of heroism. Its nothing short of infuriating, and it would seem your brother has been pulled into such nonsense.

[imthefavorite]

What kind of nonsense?

[stromkreis]

Encouraging the idiot I was mentioning earlier.

...God, you're so frustrating.

I'm not doing anything I haven't already been doing. Still investigating the place, still trying to figure things out in the event that something new comes up. When someone mentions that they might have an idea or might be onto something, hell, count me in.

I'm not arguing about being cautious. That's all fine and dandy. But if you're talking about being resigned to our fates, no thanks.

By even acknowledging his reckless behavior you are surely encouraging him. Understanding our surroundings, yes, I fully endorse that. However I do not, understand the need to endanger yourself simply to showboat.

I have been to the farthest point of this place, and there is no point in anyone trying to return there. It is best to stay where we are familiar. I am doing this out of an obvious misplaced concern for you.

Encouraging him wasn't really my intent and neither was showboating. I just want to be there if something's uncovered, even if it's accidentally. And if he's encouraged, what do you care? You've made it clear you think he deserves it if he manages to get himself hurt.

I'm not trying to trivialize your experience. I know you went through hell and... well, the concern's appreciated if not entirely expected. But can we really know that's the farthest point there is? We've only seen what our captives have allowed us to. And, to be honest, it doesn't look like taking the 'safe route' kept anyone any safer in that situation.
