[Out of habit, her greeting starts with a sigh. Hey, for a long time the only person who called her was Sylens, and it really set a tone for phone conversations. Be glad it's just a sigh.]

What do you need?

[othellovonryan]

Bootyyyshaker9000: Ah.
Bootyyyshaker9000: Do you? That you can ask me for help?

Re: Late Day 99

[despitethenora]

aloy: I'll be asking for your help with the hunt.

Re: Late Day 99

[othellovonryan]

Bootyyyshaker9000: And in the future?

Re: Late Day 99

[despitethenora]

aloy: We'll see what comes up.

Re: Late Day 99

[othellovonryan]

[A delay.]

Bootyyyshaker9000: What do you want our relationship to be, Aloy?

Re: Late Day 99

[despitethenora]

(...)

(...)

aloy: Right now?
aloy: We can be allies.

Re: Late Day 99

[othellovonryan]

Bootyyyshaker9000: And in the future?

Re: Late Day 99

[despitethenora]

aloy: I honestly don't know.
aloy: Maybe we'll be friends.
aloy: Maybe we'll stay allies.
aloy: Back on Earth, there's a man I've frequently threatened to put my spear through. It wasn't so long ago, I started wondering the same thing about him.

Re: Late Day 99

[othellovonryan]

Bootyyyshaker9000: Its funny how that can happen.
Bootyyyshaker9000: Including the threats phase.
Bootyyyshaker9000: Allies or friends though, we do need to communicate.
Bootyyyshaker9000: And not just when we're in a high stress situation.
Bootyyyshaker9000: Which is honestly something I have struggled with in the past, making sure to communicate, and I intend to correct that behavior.
Bootyyyshaker9000: Since I may have waited longer than I should have in this scenario.

Re: Late Day 99

[despitethenora]

aloy: We've been talking. It's been fine.

Re: Late Day 99

[othellovonryan]

Bootyyyshaker9000: If you think you can't ask me for things, then it hasn't been fine.
Bootyyyshaker9000: I make things.
Bootyyyshaker9000: I make things for people I have personal investment in, its what I do.
Bootyyyshaker9000: If you thought you couldn't ask me to make things, especially something as simple as a spear, then communication has broken down hard.

Re: Late Day 99

[despitethenora]

aloy: I also didn't have to make a deal for spear.
aloy: I could have just asked Airi to pass one along.

Re: Late Day 99

[othellovonryan]

Bootyyyshaker9000: Why did you go for the deal?

Re: Late Day 99

[despitethenora]

aloy: I wanted to.
aloy: The hunt will be good for the team.
aloy: And whatever we've said here, you still have other projects.

Re: Late Day 99

[othellovonryan]

Bootyyyshaker9000: Actually, I made sure my project load was very light by the time spring decided to kick my butt.
Bootyyyshaker9000: So when I'm not in a pit of misery, I won't actually have much.
Bootyyyshaker9000: Most of them are actually Tryse's suggestions.

Re: Late Day 99

[despitethenora]

aloy: As far as I can tell, Tryse makes suggestions that benefit the team overall.

Re: Late Day 99

[othellovonryan]

Bootyyyshaker9000: Yes, but she also wants it to be part of bonding.
Bootyyyshaker9000: So I will have free time.
Bootyyyshaker9000: And even then, I fully encourage you to ask for items, that is what I do.

Re: Late Day 99

[despitethenora]

aloy: I’ll consider it.

Re: Late Day 99

[othellovonryan]

Bootyyyshaker9000: I'll also get to your last request when I am no longer dealing with spring misery.

Re: Late Day 99

[despitethenora]

aloy: It’s fine.
aloy: It won’t be that useful with the general layout around here.
aloy: It would have been good to have after one scenario, and that’s long past.

Re: Late Day 99

[othellovonryan]

Bootyyyshaker9000: Never underestimate when and how a good grappling hook will come in handy.
Bootyyyshaker9000: Or pullcaster, I believe?
Bootyyyshaker9000: My brain was in snek juice at the time, so things get a little fuzzy.

Re: Late Day 99

[despitethenora]

aloy: Pullcaster.

[. . .Grapple gun, for sure.]

Re: Late Day 99

[othellovonryan]

Bootyyysjaker9000: Spring unpleasantness should be done in a few days, so I can finally see what we need to do, to put one together.

Re: Late Day 99

[despitethenora]

aloy: I think Tryse is trying to wire that new room to power it. That’s probably more important.

Re: Late Day 99

[othellovonryan]

Bootyyyshaker9000: I'm wiring it because she still needs to learn more to do it safely. I can still multitask. I honestly need multiple projects, it keeps me properly grounded.
