> "Well, it's not super clear, but not usually, no. It's the masters I normally get the sense of. If it was the master I saw, though, that was one hell of a master."
> "Oh, except for you. Whenever I see myself, you're there too."
> "Did Georgia give you any trouble?"
> Settle for cheetos and a beer.

>You decide on breakfast.

> "Oh, uh, when I see myself in the dream, it's not from my point of view. Like, I see myself in third person, and you're there with me. Actually, I think I might not have even realized it was supposed to be me if you weren't there too."
> "Anyway, yeah, you were there talking to me while I was kind of like, dying dramatically or whatever."
> "Uhh I think there was just one other time, I want to say it was from Koch's point of view? We were building a shelter and having fun and he was thinking we were just street scum or whatever."
> "Actually, huh, that's what we're doing now, isn't it?"

>She produces a piece of paper and hands it to you.

Man, if the Curse client weren't defunct there would have been a great joke there.

>Speaking of, it seems he has sent you a picture of a golden retriever laying on a sidewalk, seemingly asleep. Judging from the quality, you assume it was taken from his phone's camera, or at least a phone's camera.

> Add Georgia. Send her a picture of Archer's charcoal burning mound. "If we stay here long enough, maybe Archer will build me a house."
> Return to our conversation with Lancer. Consider telling him about last night's events, but decide against it. If he and Kimimela knew that they didn't have to do anything special to get rid of Command Seals, Kimimela might be encouraged to kill Archer with a clear conscience.
> "Good morning, Lancer. Are you a dog person?"

While potentially illuminating, I don't want to tell Lancer about our time slowing thing.

>"That makes much more sense," Lancer replies. "But do be mindful. Something your people never really came to understand are that dreams are messages from the world you cannot see. Perhaps they are garbled because you are not able to see, perhaps they are not garbled at all? Consider everything carefully. And whether we can help is also in question. I may have no insights, but...I wouldn't gamble on it."
