[It's a lovely summer day! Ah, so bright and sunny!

...and so there is a very pale -- deathly pale one might say, even -- young man who has just finished slopping some sunscreen lotion on himself, holding a big bottle that says "SPF OVER 9000" and contemplating it.]

So does anyone here actually know the difference between UVA and UVB?

I haven't the faintest.

Well, according to that very knowledgeable fellow over there, "UVA" is the stronger type that does long-term damage and "UVB" is the sunburn-y type. Though it's all the same to me, I suppose.

I would imagine so!

Would you care for some?

Don't mind if I do. [takes the bottle and glances at the label] I wasn't aware they made it this strong. Not that I'd ever thought to try sunblock before...

We don't have any strength of it where I'm from. But I happened to wake up early this afternoon, and it was just sitting on the floor under my head. I think Camp was telling me to get out more, and, well, I can't say that I mind it.

I'm beginning to notice this place likes subtle hints.

Oh? What has it thrown in your direction so far?
