Who: Everybody
When: Day 19, afternoon
Where: Everywhere.

[Well. Some of us may have had entirely too exciting a morning, but this afternoon, anyone going through the train will find tables set up with piles of flower crowns on them and signs reading 'decorative bond, please take one'. There's a preposterous amount of them, more than enough for everyone on the train to have their own flower crown.

There are also baskets of flowers set out in the lounge, and instructions for making your own crown, if none of them suit your fancy. This is clearly harmless stress relief, Aurora, go for it.]

Oh.

[talking :/

to people :/]

I don't think most people care about self-sufficiency.

Most people never have to be. Societies are built around the idea of working together, at least to some extent.

[Shrugging. Y'all gonna have to learn to communicate, no way around it.]

But humans--and the passengers here seem to be mostly human or human-shaped enough to behave the same--are pack animals. It'll be easier to progress if we work as a group, instead of just along these team lines.

People are... difficult. Difficult to get moving. Difficult to keep moving.

Working with them--leading them--is a skill like any other. And an unforgiving job...if you want people to move, you may never falter in their view.

[She sighs, almost imperceptibly softly.] A lot of pressure, to focus on a single point.
