Oasis: Okay, question 6. Coffee or tea?
Jesse: Since I aged up, it's mostly water and fruit smoothies. Pomegranate smoothies.
Jesse: A bit, yeah. Spent more simoleons on pomegranates than university tuition. But it's worth it. No more questions about hobbies or food.
Oasis: Okay. Then your turn.
Jesse: Aight. Why politics?
Tell me if this tastes good before you answer.
Oasis: Mmhmm! So good. Umm, politics? It was decided for me? Mmm. On one hand, I have native coding like my life-giver, so I can do things watched-sims cannot do. But on the other hand, part of my reincarnation coding is a watched-sim... so being one of the ambassadors just fits? I'm in-between both groups anyway. More corn, please?
Jesse: Sure. So usually reincarnations are -
Oasis: Mmm! Please make this again. Umm, reincarnations are usually a baby that's 100% occult or 100% watched-sim. Maybe I'm a mess cause I'm one big, hybrid adult experiment.
Jesse: We're all a mess. But did Sixam tell you you're an experiment?
Oasis: Not to my face. But in my file, I'm called R-015, and they're all hush hush about the watched-sim side. You'd think I'd know everything that's going on but - wait, should we be talking about this stuff on a date?
Jesse: We're not going back to coffee or tea.
Oasis: Those are important questions!
Jesse: I'm trying to get to know you better, Oasis.
Oasis *blushing*: I told you don't say my name like that.
Jesse *laughing*: There's no other way to say your name.
Oasis: You know what I'm talking about.
Oasis: You do... are you sure you want to stay out here?
We don't have to go to your place. I get that you'd want to keep it to yourself. But my room is okay.
Jesse: You don't have any childhood memories on a swing?
Jesse spent our last session trying to justify wanting to see Oasis. "Deja will be in school, so I'm not leaving her like last time. And it will be rude to ignore Oasis if she's in town, right?"
I don't know if he was worried because it would be on Desiree's birthday... Or if the day doesn't matter and he only feels guilty about his feelings.
