Do any of you have any strong opinions about your group members? I’m curious if you see each other as friends or simply colleagues.
[LIVE BROADCAST - Whispering Reeds]
WR: Friends...? Colleagues?
WR: No, not that.
WR: We are family. We have to be.
WR: We are built for each other. We cover the other's flaws. We are a tapestry, threads woven too tightly to unravel.
WR: . . .
WR: We were closer, once. Long ago. Before... everything.
WR: I was closer, once. I should be specific.
WR: I am not as... available, anymore.
WR: Everything has changed. That is the nature of things. But, the others will always be my family. At least, I dearly hope so.
[LIVE BROADCAST - Twelve Endless Nights]
TEN: Colleagues? The others are hardly as colleagues as they are children I must begrudgingly attend to lest they run off into trouble.
TEN: A family, yes, but one born of circumstance and not choice.
TEN: Honestly, I feel like I'm the only responsible one here.
TEN: I have documented and catalogued all of the work output the other have done over a long period of cycles and I consistently do more in one cycle than the others do in ten!
TEN: It's like I'm the only one here with any sort of intent or drive to continue our divine purpose.
[LIVE BROADCAST - A Fleeting Moment, Silence Between Words]
AFM: we're a family, of course! one big happy family!
SBW: I have always considered the others to be my kin.
AFM: silo has always been there for me! he's the best, and so so nice!
AFM: he's our senior but he's always treated me like an equal. unlike some people...
SBW: Twelve is just looking out for you, Momo. Worrying is how he shows he cares.
AFM: i think he worries more than he cares.
AFM: reedie worries too much, too. but she's nicer about it.
AFM: did you know?!?! reedie is my twin sister!! we were built by the same engineer! i'm technically the youngest but only by a few cycles.
SBW: Indeed. I got to watch you both be built from the ground up. SBW: I saw Twelve, too, but that was far before my exaltation as senior. For you, I saw every detail.
SBW: It was a wonderful honor to see my family take form. I consider all of you my own flesh and blood.
SBW: Somewhat literally - we are all dependent on water that has flowed through all of us. We drink what the others provide. We are all connected through that flow - I find it beautiful.
AFM: awwwww silo :') see? he's the greatest!!!!!
