holy fucking shit, these fragments. watch where you step. watch what you step in. what's that smell?

• people off grid: Parents: Ana María Cofiño Hunter, Magnus Hunter (in Chicago). New Zealand partners: Amanda Jane and George. homesick.
• Aaron: I respect you more now that I've seen you care for someone. begrudgingly. but, holy crap are you condescending.
• Alexandra: holy crap is she dark. I mean, dark.
• Arthur: I love his passion for discovery.
• Charles: I don't understand. I wasn't pretending to be in charge of you, and I wasn't treating you like a kid. This is--It's just--I--People compare notes right? All the time? Damn, people are hard. Birds? wildlife? lot easier.
• Emma: Yes. I voted for her. but she doesn't understand cleansing. Uh, neither do I but I don't understand it better than she doesn't.
• Jamila: I wonder if she's written me off?
• Jim, intern: Manages the life of a student despite working a dangerous second shift. Why this focus on vengeance?
• Kai: Why now?! I never hid anything from you.
• Maria: Talented and resourceful. Might be okay even I did fall apart. Oh god the sarcasm. Sometimes I forget how something teenagers can be.
• Maya: Working with you is /hard/. Why the fuck did you do that?! I feel like I was not so much working with you as just being in the same place while you did your own thing. No, that's not how I work with someone.
• Note: My friend who is a crow. We can do this together.
• Rei: A very exact person. I like people who are exact. Puzzling.
• Wednesday: crow friend. peace maker. family. Of course I voted for him. Vote for the one who can laugh at no one's expense. Vote for the one who works to form coalitions.
• Zach: Have you ever listened to him? There's a reverberation when he moves with reality. It's beautiful[1]. He doesn't break trails that people follow. Lives on borders. I don't know what's going on with the kid, but I'll try my best to make sure she gets a fair hearing.

Occasional Contact

• Bit aka James: A really solid person in a crisis. Alma told Bit, "I mean duh, it should have been obvious, right? right? He (her advisor - Ed.) says, He says, "The question isn't so much 'do other animals experience it?' as 'why would Humans be the only species to experience it?'" ("It" refers to "choice blindness". Alma's player send an email to a biologist she knows who writes stories about whether intelligence requires consciousness and so forth because this is related to their interests. and this was part of their reply. - Ed.)
• Bryn: A tattoo artist who was easy to talk to despite an unearthly beauty.
• that girl: oh, yay. she looked at me.
• Graham: Maybe he's that adviser that has to herd quarreling students? I hope he is good at it. sorry to cause trouble.
• J0: Research partner. Really kick-ass drones.
• James: A pleasant person to meet on a hike. He knows good things about anger. Wouldn't his mind be totally blown if he knew just really how much we can talk to everything?
