Come on, Ishmael! What's the harm in spending a few hours walking around taking pictures of stuff? That's the idea anyway, but I'm sure March and I will think of more things as we go... You can get your steps in.
You're really no different from March... Do you guys like rushing into these things?
I don't want to invest so many feelings onto one person only to find out that they're gone the next day. And not just because they died or anything. One day you'd see them around the base, only to find out that their rooms have been cleared out the next day. And I'm sick and tired of that.
[ she must have had it happen more than once... of course the girl who's never really made friends wants to make a lot of them. but not all of them are so easy to make, either. ]
Well, I can't force you to change your feelings on that or me, so... Okay. I won't stop being friendly with you, or inviting you to things, or anything else that comes to mind, but I also won't insist without better reasons backing me up. Okay?
[ she's lost so many people at sea, with no time to mourn for them... but she'll always carry queequeg in her heart. as far as she knows, at least rodion is still around and will forever be around. that's the kind of friend ishmael wants if she can help it. ]
Mm, that's a good compromise. It's not that I'm opposed, it's just that I want to make sure that you guys are here for the long haul. Even though we'll inevitably go on our separate ways once this is all over.

Besides, we already practice together. That's more than enough.

I mean, I'd like to do more than just that with you if possible. And before you ask why, it's because I want to be friends with you.
