Pointed Buildings on the Horizon (Is That What We’re Looking for?)
[Contemplating Together]
We see some buildings over there
They’re altering in form
They don’t have windows
But they do have cracks
When we were told “mountains”
Is this what was implied?
Need a definition
Maybe a dictionary
...It's in the knapsack!!!
[Taking Turns]
I know what a rock face is
Oh, that could offer some context
But would you say that there’s a roof?
I’m not sure I’d go exactly that far
The more I look, the less these seem like buildings
You know, for me it’s the opposite
Oh, gosh, okay, now I’m really concerned
Do you think the carabiner may have helped?
Like... maybe! But I don’t want to dwell!
I did bring a map
I know, but that’s not the point
*sigh* Yeah, I know it’s not; I’m just trying to find a bit of solace
Do you want me to grab one of the boxes? Would that help?
I... I don’t think so
Sorry, it was just a suggestion
Don’t worry, I didn’t mind it... Wait!
No, it’s okay, I’m just grabbing one anyway, but it’s for me
That’s fair, you seemed peckish during the drive
I was!
I’ll look at the map while you grab the boxes
No, I’m only grabbing one
Oh, so you’re not that hungry?
No, I... I am, but one box will be more than enough
That’s fine, though I will say that a couple of the boxes have smaller portions in them
You didn’t pack them evenly?
We were in a rush, the server offered to do it for me
And did you let him?
Of course not!
I’ll weigh the boxes with my hands before I grab one; I’d like to be able to make an informed decision here
You don’t want to just walk each one over and check with me once you’re back?
Why would I do it that way?
To give me more time to make sense of this map!
I feel like it might be a better idea for me to worry about the boxes later and for now just focus on helping you parse this whole situation
I’d appreciate that, but I want to feel the pride that comes with having done it myself, which just won’t have happened if you help me out
Okay, but I’ll be here if you change your mind
Thank you
I don’t know if we could survive this arduous endeavor without each other
I think that’s very sweet of you to say, but I don’t agree
Why not?
I honestly feel like you could have handled this on your own; you’re a very capable person
I appreciate you saying that, but I think that if I seem capable it’s only because your presence gives me confidence that I wouldn’t otherwise tend to have

So like, are those mountains?
