Yeah.

You're Spanish? Mexican? Manuel's a Spanish name, innit?

[standing_waters]

I'm a lot of things, but, yeah, a big part's Mexican.

[devoutish]

I'm sure you can't guess what I am, can you?

[He jokes; he knows he sounds British as fuck.]

[standing_waters]

I can place the accent, at least. British of some sort, right?

[devoutish]

Yeah. London native, not just living there.

[standing_waters]

I've never been that way. How is it?

[devoutish]

Crowded. Foggy, smokey, hard to see the sun.

But it's home, eh?

[ It's one of the only things he likes talking about, some days.]

[standing_waters]

*Hard to see the sun even in 1920? It must be terrible by his time.*

I know what you mean. Hopefully we'll be able to get back.

[devoutish]

I won't ask what you think the chances of that are - you haven't been here long enough to have a realistic opinion on the matter. But you'd better not ask me either, because I've been here too long for it.

[standing_waters]

For as long as possible, I'm going to try and be hopefully. Hopefully, but not unrealistic.

[devoutish]

There's a good balance for you.

[standing_waters]

I try. Its not always easy, but I try.

[devoutish]

And do you plan to help in some way?

[standing_waters]

I certainly hope so. I need to get on my feet first, but I'm not planning to freeload.

[devoutish]

What do you think, exploring? Supplying?

[standing_waters]

Any idea how many people are doing either?

[devoutish]

More explorers, I think. And not much food to be found where they are.

[standing_waters]

Once I get a better idea of where I am in relation to everything I'll see what I can do.
