Hey guys! I know we’re all busy right now with all the wild stuff you guys have managed to find out but wanted to get your opinion on something.

It’ll be real quick, I swear.

If I attempted to convince a citizen here to let me try out the Mass Subconscious thing out - Where does that land on the ‘good idea’ scale that ranges from one to ten?

( ooc; this post is connected to this little event of daylight's! if you have any concerns/questions/comments, please feel to leave them over at the top-level. o / )

After what we witnessed with Connor, it would be for the best to rethink how one deals with the technologies presented by this world. I own I know a grave little when it comes to such things but I should hope I retain good sense despite that much.

[ ... now he feels pretty bad for worrying elizabeth like this. ]

I promise I'll be careful when trying to do this. I swear. I won't, like, just stick my cable into anybody's port if it's available. I'm asking around and trying to find someone who I think my systems will be compatible with. There's a possible candidate or two? Hopefully.

Besides- Connor is doing better now! Thanks to you and Zari, especially. :)

[Oh Daylight. It's odd but he reminds her of Lydia in some ways, a touch reckless but well-meaning at heart. She recalls the pictures of his family and feels a somewhat bittersweet pang at the memory.]

He is indeed. That is no excuse for harm though.
I am sure there are boundaries where my healing must stop, though I own I have not found them yet.

[Bigger wounds take longer but she's always been able to heal to some degree. Her expression softens, even if it can't be seen.]

Should you have trouble, you need only ask. Take care.

[ daylight lets out the hot gust of air he didn't realise he was he holding until now. it's comforting to get her blessing since he looks up to elizabeth. he doesn't like the idea of letting the people he's come to like down, in one way or another.

... meaning that he will need to do his best to not get too injured while he pulls off this little stunt and something does happen. he doesn't want anyone else dragged into this plan of his, if possible, and he has no idea if healing someone his size will cause elizabeth to get hurt or something. that's the last thing he wants. ]

Thanks, Elizabeth! If you need anything, let me know. And if I need anything, Meddy will most likely hit you up if I'm too busy or something.

You take care too, okay? Please be safe!

We have a deal then. You keep yourself as well as possible and I shall do my utmost to return unscathed no matter what occurs.

[sunborne]

It's a deal, Elizabeth! :D

[ there's a thoughtful pause on daylight's end, almost like he's considering something.

than he sends another message to her: ] Can I ask you something? It'll be real quick, I promise. It won't be weird or anything, I swear.

[a_sharp_wit]

[It won't be weird, hm? He's piqued her curiosity.]

Then I should be happy to answer whatever I may.

[sunborne]

We're friends, right?

[ frankly, the fact he needs to ask this at all is both silly and worrying but- ] I was wondering if, it's alright with you and everything, if I could call you a nickname?? Lizzie or Liz, short for your full name?

Only of you're up for it, I mean!!

[a_sharp_wit]

[Aww. Elizabeth laughs to herself as she reads.]

We are quite good friends, I like to think. We have visited worlds together after all!

I am amenable to both. My sisters call me Lizzy; I have never been termed Liz before but I am quite satisfied with the notion of it as a nickname as well.

Though that begs the question of what is to be your nickname then.

[sunborne]

[ success! reached a level of friendship that allowed nicknames between both parties. (as agreed by both parties.)

daylight's winglets wiggle in glee and he's now starting to think, okay. alright. maybe this is a good sign for stuff to come after all. ]

Thanks, Liz! You're the best!!

[ and right- nicknames in return. ]

Plain old 'Day' is fine. It's a lot easier to say than 'Daylight' in my experience. I'm okay with being called 'Sunshine' and 'Sunny' too since I've been nicknamed that by my friends back home! And, of course, I'm open to new suggestions and pitches long as they're super cool. Or funny. Funny works too.

[a_sharp_wit]

For now then you shall be 'Day'. And once I think of something amusing enough, I'll be sure to utilize it post-haste.

[sunborne]

That's awesome!

Trust me- Any nickname you give me, I'll happily accept it and think of it as the coolest nickname ever. That's what friends are supposed to do after all. Be awesome together and make a million nicknames for the other.
