[the evening after he wakes up]

[wildguardian]

Hey, Jedao. I can drop by and get that key back from you any time.

... and? Seriously, thank you for grabbing it when you needed to.

I grabbed it when Nanaki disappeared. Without a back-up, it was an obvious target.

[You could shove a warden in and once they were locked, with no paired warden or arresting warden of their own, the key would be the only way to get them out.]

[wildguardian]

You're not wrong. Though anybody could pick up the back-up role if they had to, better safe than sorry.

[He rubs a hand over the back of his neck.]

How are you doing? Looks like some shit went down while I was out.

[He shrugs.]

A little frayed at the edges. I'm organizing playdates for myself about it.

Re: [the evening after he wakes up]

[wildguardian]

All right. You tell me if you need someone to pinch hit for you while you're taking some time for yourself, got it?

I owe you one.

You know the crazy thing? Justine just graduated.

[So he really has to take a break now.]

[exhaling in a rush] Ah, what, really? Congratulations! What does that make, three?

Re: [the evening after he wakes up]

[deuceoftears]

Yes.

[He's so proud of her.]

And she beat Walter by at least twelve hours, I'm pretty sure.

[He's aware this is petty and dumb, but right now he's rolling with anything that makes him happy.]

[Yunlan laughs, and adopts a teasing tone.] I'm not sure you're supposed to be comparing like that, nephew!

But still: congratulations to her.

[deuceoftears]

I'm only privately smug, I promise.

[wildguardian]

I guess you're allowed to be privately smug.

Are you planning on sticking around for number four?

[deuceoftears]

Yes, of course.

Sebastian's maybe hit his halfway mark now, so we'll see if I can bag six. That won't touch Iris's high score, but it's not bad.

[wildguardian]

Well, I figured the answer was yes, but I thought I'd ask anyway.

What is Iris's high score by now? I don't think I've ever asked her.
