[Clove is looking... kind of terrible. She's in a forest, and it doesn't look like she's had a shower (or a decent meal, or a good night's sleep) in weeks, if not more.

She's also apparently not alone. Before saying anything, she glances over her shoulder to make sure no one is watching her, and when she does speak it's in a quiet tone.]

I need supplies. Food mostly, and better weapons-- my knives are going dull, and I don't have any sharpening tools.

... We weren't supposed to be out here this long.

Indeed. But sometimes nothing can be done to save a plant...and in that case is it not better to care for the ground and protect the rest from a blight?

[But is he derailing it? After all, Karakael knows nothing of plants...but quite a lot about planets]

[He rubs his chin.]

...never want it to happen, but yes. You're right.

[This could be the start of a mutually beneficial and practical relationship.]

[masked_god]

Unfortunate as it is, sometimes you cannot save everything.

[A beginning of a sigh escapes Stanley's lips, but he perks up.]

But we can still do what we can, and that's what matters.

[masked_god]

Indeed. Perhaps we cannot save your friend's world now, but perhaps we will have a chance to help her in the future.

[twobloomsup]

Yeah, you're right.
