It's not cheating. It's...speedrunning! That makes it okay!
[ Sure, Jan. She pouts a little after her bonk. Such a grump... ]
I guess having someone like you around will make doing things the hard way a little better, though.
[ Wait. Did he just say--? Her head snaps in his direction. They fly now?! ]
Don't you think you could've told me you can fly by now?! We could've gone flying or something! Maybe even found a way out of this place together! [ Wishful thinking, she knows. But it's a fun thought. ] Well, probably not. But that'd be fun, imagining what it's like to be in an airplane...as long as you had a seat belt for me, ahaha. Some of us can't survive falling from the sky, you know. [ She peers around when they hit a fork, then decides to go right for them. He's welcome! ] Or from super high shoulders~
[ She spends a moment taking in all the new flowers around them, then her tone's shifted to something more wistful. ] I do kind of wish I'd met you in a place that's not here. Don't get me wrong, it's nicer than the alternative, but...I bet we could find so many other things to do for hours and hours. Even if it was just sitting at a beach, staring at the ocean, eventually watching the sunset.
[ For someone who loves to dream big, her actual wishes are very small. The tiniest wishes to do the simplest, smallest things. ]
