You don't wear those all the time, do you? [ says the girl who does not take off this one jacket? ] What, too good for itchy yarn poorly braided together in ten minutes?
[ and just a little nod at the last part! yeah!! like that. ]
[ ...he will just tentatively approach the topic and say it. ]
Like it kind of feels familiar? [ the island was. bad. ghosts are bad. everything about that was. bad. but they did pretty well together that night, following each other through forests and cliffs and fields to find their people and solve their problems to leave alive. ]
[ she sighs - not because she's upset at the subject being broached but just because... it's like it's heavy. ]
Yeah. Little bit. Only that was an island I grew up going to, and this place is—whatever this place is. [ and these are strangers, and it's. very, very new, actually. ]
Maybe it just feels that way to me. [ considering, like, everything was new? his dad announcing that he met someone was new. showing up in camena was new. meeting alex was new. going to edwards island and spending the whole night exploring and trying to quell a bunch of pissed off ghosts was new.
and waking up dead and being here to try and form alliances was new. talking to people, pretending to be social and casual and like he was slowly withering on the inside trying to keep a delicate balance was new.
so. familiarity. ]
This place is...grounding, in a way. [ it's at least a constant reminder of why they're here and what they're meant to do. ]

Maybe not all the time, but enough. Besides, I think you'd have to use a lot of yarn to even get it around my wrist.
[ his arms are not that big. they're built enough, but it's more of a lazy joke than anything. ]

It wouldn't take that much, Jonas. See, this is what happens when you don't join girl scouts. You don't even know how to make a friendship bracelet.
no subject
[ don't. ]

Great! I'll keep my eyes peeled for some yarn.

[ he says, knowing alex will move on to something else immediately and forget about it. ]

[ why are you so bad at phrases. ]

[ still not entirely the point but okay. ]

That's a team motto.

Wait, maybe it should be something scarier. To, like, ward off other teams.

Or maybe even something motivational! [ what happened to team discussion...? ]
no subject
Which is it, motivation or discussion?

[ again, she is absolutely going to lose interest in all of this immediately, so, ]

Again, I'm leaving it up to you to tell Setsu and Kazuki. But they might be into it, who knows?

Nnnaaaaaah. I don't think so.
