Hey... could someone... help me... build a thing...

... Or not... don't worry if you can't.

Anyway... thanks... if you do...

... Or if you don't.

Do you think so? I hope so...

... It'll be good... for the base... I hope...

[soulfriend]

Are you a fish breeder or something? I can see how that'd be good for food. And keepin' the easy, tasty ones close by where we don't have to go out with the dangerous ones to catch 'em sounds like something I can get behind!

[napstablook]

No, not really... I think I could learn though... Peepers aren't scared of me? So it helps...

But I'm glad... I was worried it was a bad idea...

... cool.

[soulfriend]

Cool! So when's this happening?

[It doesn't occur to him yet to wonder why anything would be especially scared of this guy.]

[napstablook]

Well I don't know for sure... a lot of people are offering to help, though, so once we get a good idea of what to build... I think it'd be soon?

People here are really... good at getting things done... it's really admirable.

[soulfriend]

Yeah, I noticed . . . everyone works together as a team, huh? Pretty cool! How long you been here? I'm brand new, so this is still pretty crazy to me.

[napstablook]

Only, uh, a month... maybe two... I don't know. I don't really... notice... time...

[soulfriend]

I get losin' track of time, but not noticing it at all?!

[napstablook]

I don't need to sleep or eat so I don't have a lot of those markers... sorry... it's kind of a pain sometimes.

[soulfriend]

What the hell . . . you a robot?

[He's kind of excited by the prospect, despite the confusion.]

[napstablook]

No.

[ They were surprised, and it showed in the tone of their telepathic response. ]

That's my bandmate.

[soulfriend]

You're in a band with a robot?! That's awesome . . . wait, then what are you? There's no way you're human with the way you're talking!

[napstablook]

I'm a ghost...

[soulfriend]

ANOTHER ONE?!

[napstablook]

Oh you know other ghosts? I'm the only one left... back home... it'd be nice to meet more ghosts...

... not that I'm too interesting... they probably wouldn't want to.
