catchall; lambda
how many times will I forget there's a B in her name
[Kaveh's calmed down a little after All Of That; he's sitting somewhere outside with a half-finished latte next to him, drawing something on a little IKEA notecard. He looks up when he sees Lambda and stops doodling, though he doesn't try to hide the picture; it's clearly some kind of building, which probably isn't surprising. He looks a little wary when he sees her, but he nods cautiously in greeting. He can be nice...]
Did you get a chance to talk to them?

[ will kaveh dislike lambda by the end of the weekend? let's find out.
she does peek at his drawing, but she doesn't invade his personal space or anything. she prefers to keep her own distance. ]
I talked with the one who looked like he wanted to talk to us least. It was informative enough.

[Maybe he already dislikes her... a mystery...]
Oh, yes. His name is Kiichi, isn't it? [Kaveh checked the profiles after.] I can't say any of that was what I wanted to hear, but at least we have a point of contact with someone now.

[ that'd be amazing. then it will become will kaveh dislike lambda more before the weekend's over let's find out ]
I don't think much that starts with you're dead would lead to optimism. They all at least seemed willing to answer questions frankly enough. It's a start.

Yes, that's true. [A sigh.] I'd like to believe they're lying, but I can't see why they would be.
[It seems like it would just be more trouble for them in the long run tbh]

[She is correct, honestly.]
Well, Nahida and I need to finalize our team. We're still confirming our fourth, but we've talked it over.

I doubt anyone will be sure about people they don't know this quickly. But Nahida and I both spoke to Hikari separately, which means we both saw merit in having him with us for separate reasons. I think that's a good sign. As for the fourth... well, my main concern is finding someone who can help me look after Nahida. She was primarily concerned about people who seemed willing to tackle this alone, but that may have changed now.
Doesn't everyone need looking after, from time to time? [He worried about her even back home, before they really spent any time together.] But typically, no, I wouldn't be that worried. But without our usual abilities...
[Kaveh looks openly skeptical for a moment, but he politely doesn't disagree with her. He's got a tiny smidgen of self-awareness, maybe.]
...I try to maintain that belief anyway. But these are very extreme circumstances--it would be foolish not to acknowledge that.

Yes. [He sighs.] I do think that if it were possible, most of us would be willing to work together and figure out a way to ensure all of us could make it out of here safely. But given that those three said it's impossible to speak to the person who's reviving us... I'm not coming up with any alternatives.
[ god. (that's her.) he really is the type to believe in the goodness of others. at least he said most and not all. lambda is thinking about rang 'i'll say things in the most inciteful way possible' lee. ]
Kiichi said the erased will stay erased, by default. He said that to me and at least one other person.

[Fortunately he has just enough realism to him that he knows not everyone is kind. Or smart. Or not an asshole. He's an idealist out of stubbornness and spite, not naivety.]
Yes, I heard. [He chews on his lip for a moment.] I'd like to speak with him further, or maybe one of the other two.

What do you mean?

[NOOOO BETRAYAL. It's really funny though she's truly being very nice to him right now]
...Someone mentioned that it's possible whoever's reviving us simply doesn't have the power to bring everyone back. If that's the case, there's truly nothing to be done for it.
[Which is... heartbreaking, really. It's the worst case scenario for someone like him.]

[ he's being reasonable right now, so she can be reasonable in return. ]
If they could bring back everyone all the time, no one would stay dead, but if it's a matter of power or points...
[ she does think that's an avenue to think about. ]
Chances are slim but not impossible.

[Hello Lambda!! Kaveh is here in his new fit, drinking a milkshake and studying Puppy Play from the outside. He greets her with a little wave, though he edges away if she gets too close, like he's trying to spare her from experiencing his Emotions.]
What do you think? [About the new place.]

[ this is such a spicy outfit.
she won't force him to share his emotions. at least she has the mind to think that it's that first, but she wouldn't be surprised if he also shifted away from her because he didn't like her. ]
The pets or the entire place edging on dystopia?

[He's gonna get banned on Tumblr. ALSO HELP LAMBDAAAAA HE HAS NO REASON TO DISLIKE HER in fact after Tuesday he thinks she's genuinely just cutely got a crush on someone here, though I don't know if he ever noticed she was love arrowed to Shu specifically, very funny.]
I meant the pets, but--you don't like it here? [Aside from the creepy house nobody likes]
