By themselves, none of them sound that impressive. But I think the overall picture is that all of these people, and other people, too, have changed a lot of how I see things. Maybe the whole idea is a happy memory itself.
Luke does not do that, but he grins, hooking his thumbs in his pockets.]
They do sound impressive! Those are the kinds of things I like to photograph, back home--the little things. They really add up when you're not looking, until you think about it and you realize you've been happier than you thought. Right?
[ sometimes you go a very long time without friends and then you suddenly make a lot :pleading_face:
but he at least seems happy with that response. ]
Right. I don't know if I've ever really thought about what happiness feels like anymore. It just kind of happened one day even when things were getting harder here. [ ... ] Taking pictures would've been smarter now that I think about it. But the memories will have to be as good.
I doubt we'll be able to keep anything on the IRISes anyway, once we're out of here... [Which is a shame, actually? He looks down at his wrist, a complicated sort of nostalgia flickering over his face.] But if it all works out like we're hoping, maybe we can put together some cameras really quickly, before everyone goes back home.
[HE'S JUST KIND OF. Talking as though they'll definitely solve all of this and get out of here because it helps no one if he does not do that.]
Well...Dahut and I were talking about maybe figuring out a way to remove the IRISes and transferring them into an actual phone or something. I don't know if that'll work, but I don't want to lose anything either. [ ...but he squints in thought. ] Don't they still make those disposable cameras? We could try those or something.
I'll have to follow up with him to see if he has any further ideas how to make it work. [ but he thinks this through... ] Maybe the mall or Omegamart? I haven't really checked.

...the ones here? [ yes, shoma. ] It's funny to think about now, but at the time it was sort of a huge deal. Dahut actually said he wanted to be friends, that first week we got here. He was the first one to do that. Throné used the simulation room to show me her favorite place, this quiet village and a stage where she met another one of her friends. I got to see Sidon's domain and learn a little more about him. Diluc and I went to the mega park when it first opened to try different ice cream flavors. Charles and I have been going to the dog park to visit the dogs, especially on Fridays. Yuri and I tried to learn a few recipes together. Sometimes Rosamund and I would pick up snacks and do a trade to see which ones we liked better. Dion came with me to Anoria to check out some of the E.L.C. mounts and take them for a test ride. Kazuki said he's going to make me a playlist later just to have for myself. Viktor told me about the things he was working on and what he wanted to accomplish back where he's from, for his city. And...weirdly, Scien gave me hope that maybe things could actually be better at home.

As for cameras--] Would anywhere on the ship have them?
