Hey, it's Pidge. Sorry, can't answer right now, but go ahead and leave a message. I'll get back to you when I can.

It's more complicated than that.

Just. Don't pour it on too hard. Please.

[pidge_out]

[There's a moment of hesitation before the next message comes in.] how complicated is "complicated"?

[shiro2hero]

That's something you're going to have to ask him yourself.

I didn't tell him about your family when he asked me... I told him to go to you, so. You're going to have to do the same.

[pidge_out]

right. makes sense.

[There's another pause, and then-]

i told him, btw. if he's gonna be around as much as he is, he might as well know

[shiro2hero]

That's true.

[But he makes a pause of his own, before adding:]

I'm proud of you. I know it's not easy for you to do.

[pidge_out]

thanks, shiro


can you believe we've been here for like, 5 months?

[shiro2hero]

What, really?

... I guess I lost track once the ship crashed.

[pidge_out]

i've been trying to keep track. that's kind of where my current estimate is

and also if you count the number of darin's journals. seems like he goes through 3 or 4 a month

[shiro2hero]

Again... I'm not sure how I feel about you knowing THAT MUCH about someone else's journals.

[pidge_out]

relax, shiro. i didn't read all of them

[shiro2hero]

... well now I can't even deny I know, thanks.

[pidge_out]

you'll be fine, shiro. i wouldn't worry about it too much

[shiro2hero]

how come you're allowed to say that, but everyone always gets on my case for saying it?

[pidge_out]

well when you say it you're saying it to make us stop asking

[shiro2hero]

Not always!

[pidge_out]

9/10

[shiro2hero]

Is that an estimate, or are you actually keeping track?

[pidge_out]

it's a calculation of a statistic

[shiro2hero]

I'm concerned you're keeping statistics on me.

[pidge_out]

i keep statistics on everyone

[shiro2hero]

That's



That's actually more comforting.

[pidge_out]

well it would be more accurate to say that i keep an updated database on everyone so that i can make assessments on situations based on what i know about our team's capabilities

that's all

[shiro2hero]

Still way way more reassuring than you just having random data on people.

[pidge_out]

information is always helpful

[Including information on minor acquaintances.]

[shiro2hero]

Then I'll trust you're using it responsibly.
