>>5568859Warmth returns to your limbs as a golden glow suffuses you from below. You feel something amongst the wash of junk data and Peedee’s prickling, subconscious emotions, almost like another presence… and did you hear something earlier. You shudder, the heat bringing life and energy back to your system and shaking you out of your state of fatigued delirium.
“<span class="mu-s">DAL! I HEARD YOU! WHERE?!</span>” The thunder cracks, as orange lightning once more brightens the sky. The howling wind begins to pick up again, disturbing the glassy sea.
Now is your chance to get Peedee’s attention before her overzealous searching takes her away again.
Pulling yourself up as far as you can, you take a deep breath and focus on projecting your voice. Surely, if thinking about swimming in this place can produce results, thinking about booming out a reply could too?
>Rolled 10 (crit)>Peedee rolled 4 (5-1)>Critical success.“<span class="mu-s">PEEDEE! DOWN HERE! LOOK FOR THE LIGHT!</span>” Your own personal peal of thunder almost deafens you, but backlit as you are by the softly glowing sea you know that Peedee cannot miss you.
The clouds split and an enormous visored face appears in the heavens. Never before have you been so relieved in your life, as the tear-stained countenance hurtles towards you, babbling insensately. You smile, unafraid as she pulls up just short of crashing into you and reaches out with a giant disembodied hand to cup the ‘water’ around you. You know that much of what you are feeling is simply Peedee’s unrestrained emotions washing over you but in just this one instance it feels appropriate. You let your own weary gratitude echo back across the link and see her huge face grin in delight.
“<span class="mu-s">Did you mean it? What you said? Forever and always?</span>” She asks softly, for her size anyway.
Oh. So you weren’t just hearing things…
How do you reply?
