Really well, actually. I could use more fabric for bandages, but I found an honest-to-goodness first aid kit the other day.

[ She's saving Steph the continued waffling over whether or not to call. She's a little relieved that she held off on it. ]

...How are you doing? Your callsign disappeared there for a while.

[ Steph was really worried. Actually, she's still pretty worried. ]

[cactusy]

It disappeared from the list?

[Huh.]

[ichoosefight]

Yeah. For a few days, even. Did something happen?

[cactusy]

Died again. My stuff didn't reset this time.

[ichoosefight]

[ Steph doesn't respond for a few moments. Maybe Shaw can hear the frown in her silence. ]

Doesn't it worry you that you might be running out of chances?

[cactusy]

Not really.

[ichoosefight]

[ It's pretty much exactly the response she expected, but it still hurts to hear. ]

Well, it worries me. And that it doesn't worry you just makes it worse.

[cactusy]

And I'm guessing saying "quit it" isn't gonna do diddly.

[ichoosefight]

You can give it a shot, but the odds aren't good.

[ She can't be too upset if she's making jokes, right? She'll keep telling herself that. ]

I'd probably worry less if you didn't die so much. I'm starting to question your abilities.

[cactusy]

That just outs you as a rookie. Anyone with a perfect record doesn't have much of a record at all.

[ichoosefight]

You got it backwards. My record is so bad it gives me nightmares. I'm living on luck, good vibes and gallows humor.

[cactusy]

Died here yet?

[ichoosefight]

Not yet. Will you send flowers when I do?

[cactusy]

Dead ones, maybe.

[ichoosefight]

It's the thought that counts. Especially if the thought is "stay down, Stephanie."

[cactusy]

How big is the group now? Is everybody gathered at the airfield?

[ichoosefight]

Seven, I think. Someone stepped in a bear trap while you were lost in the Matrix. Some of the guys went to help bring them back here, but they got caught in the storm.

[cactusy]

Any word from them yet?

[ichoosefight]

Just that they're alright, and they remember the list of things I told them to watch for. I think at this point we've successfully avoided tetanus.

[cactusy]

Good; that's a nasty one.

Cohle said he and de Guzman went looking for me; you know about that?

[ichoosefight]

No, I left as soon as the detective was back on his feet. Last I heard, they were trying to poke the crossbow-wielding bear. I didn't want to stick around for that.

[cactusy]

Bears. There's more than one of them.

[ichoosefight]

...Literal, or metaphorical? Because I was talking about a specific bear dude.
