[ that familiar metallic sound of an umbrella opening along with some static mixed with the wooshing of moving air and the squeaking of her jacket came into existence moments before she appeared behind him. ]

Sam, [ fragile says gently as she collapses her umbrella closed before reaching into her pack to hold a cryptobiote out towards him ] would you like a snack?

[ if he doesn't take it she will eat it. ]

Spoilers? yeah I think we can say spoilers (before Sam goes off to do the last delivery?)

[bridgingfutures]

[ Sam doesn't even budge at the sound of the umbrella. Only one person on the whole damn planet has something like that sound. He's jumped around on beaches enough to know them.

He does glance up at the cryptobite and shakes his head. ]

Not hungry. [ Which is the truth as opposed to rejecting her offer.

He looks back up at the blue sky as birds crossover. He'd call it nostalgic of their first meeting if it wasn't for an all familiar BB cooing at Fragile. ]

all the spoilers! \o/

[propositioned]

More for me then. [ fragile ate the cryptobiote before taking a few steps forward to join him in watching the sky. a gentle smile spreading across her face as she reached out to place her hand on the glass casing of bb.

word traveled fast and it didn't take long for fragile to hear about the decommissioning order. it seemed unfair with everything they had all been trough. ]


What do you plan to do?

[bridgingfutures]

[ only a sparing look is given to her eating the cryptobite. the fact they didn't need to hide from timefall rain... he was still adjusting to it.

not that he figured his life would change much. people would still need shit delivered. especially as they started to rebuild above land. ]

Same shit. People need things all across the country. [ sam looked back up at her. ] What about you?

[propositioned]

[ timefall rain was always going to be a sore and sensitive subject for fragile, something she likely won't overcome, but with time all wounds heal and she wondered how much time she had left after all they've been through. ]

I'm thinking about starting the business back up again, following through with my father's dream.

[ she turned to him, her blue eyes still tired but a small bit of hope shone through. ]

You could join me, you know. Do this thing together?

[bridgingfutures]

Hm. I do better being a freelancer. Don't really like higher ups telling me how to do my job.

[ he gives a bit of a shrug. he likes fragile, but, that doesn't mean he wants her as his boss. ]

[propositioned]

I had a feeling you'd say something like that, but I still think we would make a great team.

[ fragile knew he liked the solitary life. no strings attached to anything and the ability to disappear was what he wanted most. it didn't stop her from trying though. to give him something to be tethered to, if he wanted it. ]

[bridgingfutures]

Joint jobs would be fine.

[ that will be the closest he says to that. fragile has her dream. die-hardman has his own. sam's? he'd just be fine shacking up somewhere with lou. delivering packages. he might know people but that doesn't mean he wants to be around people.

you can't just get rid of years of being anxious around people and suddenly move into society. ]

[propositioned]

Getting soft on me now, Sam?

( most people would have given up on the world if they went through what fragile had — falling for higg's lies, the bombing, trying to stop another bombing and sacrificing herself instead of all the people of the city... any of that would crush someone, but not her.

with whatever time she had left, fragile wanted to make it count. )

[bridgingfutures]

Soft would be actually joining your damn business.

[ he makes a tch sound at her tease. yeah, he's gotten a little softer. probably because of her. lou. deadman. amelie. heartman. all of them. part of him wonders how the hell it ever happened. ]
