[she's setting up her sleeping bag in the dinosaur bones room! choosing a space in an area where there's only one entrance into the gallery and setting her sleeping bag up directly by that entrance to be a guard dog.]

Okay, we'll be safe in here, for sure.

[captainry]

[ coming to join her for a wee bit. ]

Mind if I sit watch with you for a while, Ylfa?

[honkinbigteeth]

[ears perk up!]

Yes, of course! I'm just forming a bottleneck in case I need to make a last stand to protect all of you from harm!

[captainry]

[ he reaches to pat her between her perky ears. ruffle. ]

Excellent plan. We'll keep an eye out for any attackers - I'll take this side, in case we need to cause a diversion. Won't know what hit them.

[honkinbigteeth]

[pats...!]

This feels slightly patronizing. I'm actually really good at battle strategy.

[captainry]

Weird, since it's not meant to be. Was it the pat on the head? [ he drops down onto the floor on the opposite side for now. ] I'm not the kind of person to leave anyone on their own to do a last stand, so I'll be your backup.

[honkinbigteeth]

...That's fair, that's fair. You can help. Not that we can stay awake.

[captainry]

If one of us does stay awake, let's leave some kind of sign behind. Make it easier to know we made the last stand.

[nod nod nod.]

Knock over the T-Rex!

[metacognition]

[ we're here, sitting nearby to ylfa because you know, red string! he will occasionally hold out his hand palm up for high five hand touch and or paw holds. ]

With you guarding us, I'm sure.

[honkinbigteeth]

[high five! paw holds. they are allowed.]

You don't mean that, but you'll see.

[metacognition]

[ paw holds!! though he puts his other hand to his chest. wow!!! ]

I do mean it! I think you'd be very capable.

[ trust the little girl with the claws and also the fucking axe tbh ] The circumstances being what they are do put a wrench in things, but, I'm glad nonetheless.

[honkinbigteeth]

...I know. I couldn't really stay awake. But just in case, I want to be prepared.

[metacognition]

I don't think that's a bad thing. We technically only have one week of data; it could've been a fluke, or a one time only thing.

[ being prepared is good. it's not likely, really, but, mathematically... it could happen! so. ]

Either way - if it's me suddenly all awake, we'll have significantly less of a chance of not dying, because I'm not sure I could do much but run...
