[Yesterday the village grew quiet, as many villagers were called on a draft, and many others began the anxious wait to see if their friends and loved ones would return to the village safely.]

[Also yesterday, a breath of warm weather arrived in Luceti. Don has been out enjoying it, trying not to dwell on those who are fighting on a flying island right now. He has enough other things on his mind, and around midday he does something about one of them.]

[There are no drivers: just randomly-generated cars driving endlessly in pre-programmed patterns.]

I love going up there. I could show you some of my favorite spots.

For serious? Awesome! But I totally have to show you some of my favourite somethings in return to make things even, y'know?

[Now what favourite things should she go with? Inventions? Nah. Banana flavoured foods? Ooh, that could be a winner.]

[i_speak_softly]

[Interesting choice.]

I'd like that.

[castbytheglyph]

Y'okay! Then we can sort out some sorta sharing time so we can both see each others favourite things. Ooh, I should bring my favourite stuff up on the mountain with me!

[That would make it twice the favourite! Favouritest? ... It would be even more special, somehow.]
