Tell me about it. But Tooth's pretty passionate about her work…it was nice seeing her so happy. [A little fondness? A little fondness.] Can't say I envy her job though.
We had a lot going on. Tooth and Sandy work every night of the week. North and Bunny have one day a year, and I'm seasonal. [Shrug.] But it was nicer than watching everybody else go about their lives around the world.
[He shakes his head.] Don't get too close to the edge. I could catch you, but I'd rather not risk you plummeting ten stories.
[A while ago, Jack said he didn't really get why he was named Merriment but that he thought it maybe fit. This is probably suddenly very obvious given he's floating up as high as he can, zipping around, doing a few flips and generally spreading metaphorical wings. As it is, he's going to eventually lap around the 109 and stop in front of Taka again. He hasn't landed yet, but there's a small, icy breeze following him.]
I really hope the new world has this much space. [He knows it will, but he's very pleased. Hi Taka, your god's kind of actually also childish.]
it's so nice. he's so different, from their first meeting, and taka wasn't sure that he could feel so very happy for another person as he does right now, watching jack fly. ]
[He's still flying lazy circles around Taka just because he can...]
You think? [He's actually grinning? This is absolutely the happiest he's been for week.] I think...maybe I really did know all along and I'd forgotten.
Let's go with both. [He's still flying but now he's floating through the air on his back instead. He's staying in the air, but he doesn't seem to stray too far from Taka anyway.]
uh. the answer to what he would do for a while weekend here is unfortunately not a conversation he'd want to have with jack because it involves uno boy and a lot of application of concealer afterwards. ]
I think back home... I'd want to go to a music festival.
[Thanks Taka. Granted he can probably guess? Was Jack a teenager that actually had people to make out with when he was alive? We don't know and I don't want to know. Anyway, so he's allowing him to skip the weekend in the temple and focuses on the answer.]
Ever been to one before? [It's hard to say because Taka's so young, but also he's not sure what would really stop him otherwise.] It sounds exactly like something you'd like.
[ thank you for allowing him to skip that embarrassment ]
I've been to concerts, but not a whole festival. I'd want to go to one overseas... the ones in America are super famous, you know? They get a lot of cool acts that we don't see as often.
Yeah, I've heard of a few of them before. Never been because most of them are held in the spring and the summer, but they get advertised a lot. It sounds like it'd be fun.
I can't promise you something like that here, but...I'm thinking about stuff in the new world. Things we can have to remember you guys by, or things other people might like.

...let's see how this goes. [And with that...he steps off of the edge and disappears from sight.
...but luckily a few seconds later he's soaring through the air like the dumb whimsical fuck he can actually be.]

Cool...

that's so. cool??? ]

Tell me about it. But the game's starting to wind down...let's hope next week's maybe an easier one. I'd like to go out of this thing on a high note.

What are your ideas so far?

My memories were used against me once. I'm going to use them to my advantage this time.
