I did! I brought him some boba tea earlier, actually. Or, well, I tried to. I can't actually make stuff as well as I could before I left? But it was totally sort of technically boba.
I'll talk to her, but I think I think we're both going to want to stay I want us to stay If I can help, or if- the thing I'm going to tell you about can help, let me know.
I'm hoping the study of the Singularity will help us get the answer. Anchoring ourselves to it may be the easiest way to keep us to this plane of existence, but I'm not there yet. Still working on ideas.
If all goes well, we'll still be here decades from now, and you and Lucifer may even get along by then. Unless you can live centuries too.
We haven't had a ton of time to talk about it, but Sabine mentioned she's been studying it with you guys? That's probably good. It seems like something she might be able to help with.
( Considering what she is — which Jack has only recently learned about himself. A keeper of that which is but shouldn't be; something that applies to Jack, but seems like it could easily extend to the Singularity, too. He really needs to ask her if other people know about that yet. )
Frankly, if you ask my doctors it's a miracle I've lived THIS long, so. Who knows.
We don't know entirely what inspires it, but sometimes the Singularity gives visions and reacts stronger to certain individuals. Chooses them, basically. Sabine is one of them.
[ Not Istredd, unfortunately, but that is his lot in life. ]
I haven't pushed. I like to give people the chance to tell their story on their own terms. But I know she's not human. That's not difficult to suss out.
Sometimes humans care about a lot of things that shouldn't matter. They can be racist, sexist, xenophobic assholes. Thankfully, I'm not most people. I'm also not sure I'm completely normal myself, so it's not like I have any room to judge.
She's Sabine. That's all I care about. I'm sure you can probably relate.
[ Maybe in that first month, although he hadn't made assumptions either way. ]
Sabine and I have talked about going to the Singularity in person. It's possible during the Dimming, it's coming up in a few weeks. She might have a chance to really engage with it there.
I think I was going to ask Kyle, he is well-trusted around here now. Ambrose wouldn't allow just anyone to go with us. I need assistance because I plan to bring back soil samples this time.
Rhy also has a special relationship with the Singularity and his experience was comfortable, from what he told us at the time. It seemed to recognize him.
( Okay, that's... good, actually. That's comforting. He trusts Kyle implicitly, and he likes Rhy. If Lucifer were going he might have more concerns about it, but this group seems... pretty safe. )
Speaking of common ground, I feel like I should warn you in advance: don't let him trick you into eating pineapple pizza. Also, I'm sorry if he tries to incite a faction war with smutty Winifred/Ellya fanfic.

I'm not sure how much she's told you about herself, but that... kind of tracks with her... job. Back home.
