[Oh, turns out they were both heading to the planetarium. Molly is laying on one of the mats on the floor, legs kicked up and arm behind his head. Just vibing with the stars, feeling a little more comfortable. Not so cramped in here. When Primrose walks in, he’ll enthusiastically wave.]
Oh! Come over here and look at this. It’s really amazing.

I imagine you could lose yourself in such am activity.
[ But sure, she'll jangle on over and seat herself down on the mat closest to him, tipping her head back to look up. ]

I don't. [ She'll admit to that readily, shaking her head. ]
I didn't tend to let my gaze linger on the stars back home, but even so, I knew the ones that marked direction. I don't see their forms above.

Hm. I don't either. I think you can change it, but the different ones are interesting too. I wonder why they're different?
[The foot that's in the air waggles a bit while he contemplates this for a minute, but, back to the conversation at hand.]
You did mention traveling with a group before.

I did, yes. [ And she tilts her head towards him, mildly amused. ]
Were you curious about that? Or were you the same?
Were you curious about that? Or were you the same?
Yes, I'd have to agree. I think the longest we stayed anywhere was... three days.
[ And now look at them. ]
[ And now look at them. ]
A bit of both. In my case, I was looking for someone and attempting to follow their trail.
[ Good times, really. ]
[ Good times, really. ]
Oh, I very much long to encounter him again.
[ Hm. ]
[ Hm. ]
Will you tell me of yours in return? A story of travelers in exchange for a story of travelers.
[ Seems only fair to her. ]
[ Seems only fair to her. ]
I travel with a thief, a former knight, an apothecary, a scholar, a cleric, a merchant and a huntress. The huntress also keeps company with what she calls a snow leopard, a beast as white as snow with dark spots and quite fearsome unless she likes you.
[ Ah. ]
They all have their reasons to travel, and upon learning that some of us had similar destinations, we decided to travel together. It does result in fights with those who would... ah, stand in the way of their goals, but we're accustomed to that.

A snow leopard? Our wizard just has a house cat.
[A snow leopard makes that seem like TRASH.]
I suppose that's how most groups end up traveling together. I know it was the same for me. Just happened to be heading the same direction, things are certainly easier as a group in certain circumstances. Especially a fight.

Yes, very much so. How many people do you travel with?
[ Besides a wizard and a... cat. Aww. ]
[ Besides a wizard and a... cat. Aww. ]
The Mighty Nein! There's seven of us. [cool joke, guys]
Beauregard, who I assume you've seen mucking about the place. Caleb, who I mentioned. Wizard with the cat. Nott, our rogue, thief of hearts and buttons alike. Fjord, a fine friend in a tough fight. Jester, our cleric and general chaos manager. And Yasha, the charm.

My goodness... you truly do seem to have a very well put-together group. [ A badass for every role. ]
Oh?
[ She blinks, a little perplexed. ] Were you separated from them?
[ She blinks, a little perplexed. ] Were you separated from them?
[He falters for a second. How much to explain here. Or better to keep pretending, at least for the moment?]
They . . . had to leave me behind for a while, yeah. Should be all fixed by the end of whatever it is we're doing here. That's the point of all of this.

[ There's a story there, and it's evident from the way Primrose frowns that she'd noticed his hesitation. But then, firmly, she nods. ]
It is not my place to ask. Thank you for answering even as much as you did, Molly.
