Zora couldn’t help but chuckle at his claims. “I mean you’re not wrong.. you seem to have some plans and I’m excited for it.” They were thrilled to be able to spend their big day with someone they cared about so much.

They relished the feeling of the smooth turns even with it was Chris’s magic that was taking control for a little bit.

“You wild for that one. I bet you’ve been practicing that for a minute,” they were clearly impressed by the stunt.

“For sure. There’s something about chilling on a long drive that’s just absolutely perfect. The fresh air, being able to bump tunes and roam. I’m here for it.. and you’re very welcome. The Dynamic Duo were terribly sweet to me as always. It was a pleasure taking care of them.”

Fond memories of the time babysitting Quas and Dee floated through their head for a few moments.

“As for how it feels to have another year under my belt? It’s a little odd because my sense of time is just.. so screwy so it feels like it’s nothing. But it’s still something.. especially with what I’ve been trying to work through this year.”

Music shop runs were pretty interesting. They still loved the adventure of browsing through the varying albums and getting a sense of the rarities, the odd things that they should check out. And finding an occasional old favorite was a treat too.

Hearing them mention looking for a specific album, Zora listened to the description of the album.

“Ah that’s so annoying when copies ruined in the mail, it’s a real shame when that happens. And I totally understand wanting to support your friend and the shop itself.”

A small beat as Zora thought about the title. “I .. I think I have heard of it. And I do think there might be a copy of it around here, but I have to think about where to look for it.”

Zora had been really supportive, eager to see Hana make progress on learning this song. They knew that it could be tricky learning an instrument so they were genuinely excited to hear the song come together.

This was why they went for a pretty sharp high-five.

It was so sharp that they didn’t even realize how much it was until they saw her expression.
“Oh. Dang, sorry. I put a little too much into that. This was just so exciting to see..”

It had taken a lot of patience from Zora not to writhe even more roughly against the hold of security guards. They had been tempted deeply tempted to make this more of a scene than it already was. But the sudden abduction had their mind racing and them clearly on edge.

Although the idea was for them to be killed, Zora couldn’t help the nagging sense that the guards would have an unpleasant surprise when that was attempted. They have to keep some things close to the chest, perhaps that is why they had remained mostly silent up to this point.

“A sob story? ” Zora sighs with a bit of annoyance. They aren’t sure if they wanted to agitate further by practically challenging the guards to start shooting. At least that would feel interesting in the midst of all this. But remember, remember no need to push them to a point that is already expected here.

“I don’t know what you want me to tell you. I didn’t exactly plan on landing here - it was an accident when I was trying to head elsewhere… troubles of some interference driving me here versus my intended destination. I was certainly fine with gathering myself and going before you caught up with me. It’s not much of a story. I can’t pretend to make you weep or anything like that. ”

Basically saying, you might as well just get this whole deal over with. Or at the very least try to.

Zora couldn’t help but be curious about what this individual had been looking into. They had been exploring unusual places on their own time - it was inevitable that they would run into some other kinds of enthusiasts. No matter how often they tried going at unlikely times.

“..what did you notice over there? if I might ask?” they are a little cautious about approaching her but figured that posing a casual question couldn’t hurt.

“I got your letter you know.. I had been reading it over a few times, just to get a sense of what had been going on.” Finally Zora had gotten the chance to catch up with Tess more personally. It had been a while since they had last seen her and they..missed hearing from her.

Is that what they were thinking? Yeah, that.. seemed to be along the lines of it. They were not going to dig into exactly why but hey. Familiar faces are familiar.

“How did you manage to get through all of that, if I might ask?” They are sipping on a drink - as they had managed to link up somewhere they could sit for a few minutes and didn’t have too many annoying distractions. At least ones that could be easily put on the back-burner.

trying to enjoy the waning days of the warmer season, zora has been taking some time to just sit outside.

sometimes they are sketching, other times they are just watching the events of other people running their errands. getting through the day and all the activity that seems to emerge so suddenly.

when they are hearing some particularly loud conversations, they can’t help but lean a little bit towards the west, as if that’s going to give them a bit more clarity in terms of what’s actually going on.
