VIDEO | Backdated to the 10th

[ The video comes to life but there's no face on the other end, just a handwritten note along with a sloppy signature. Some may recognize the last name, others may not, but she honestly doesn't care. She has questions. She wants answers (despite the fact they likely don't have them all). And she desperately wants to find her friends.

The handwritten note is just precaution. She remembers the Null, even if her memory is fuzzy. Just as she doesn't sign it with her full name or tag it with her name. ]

Run down, please. We were underground and not cooking in the sun last I remember.

I could also use some help acquiring some sunscreen SPF... I don't know, whatever the fuck will keep me from turning into a tomato, and a pair of sunglasses.

I am glad you are back! [ Curufn knows almost nothing about Sharon's world, but he does not wish her a worse place than Hadriel! ]

Yes, I'm sure I could. I'll make the circuit of all those weird shops and see if I can find the materials I would need. With luck, I'll find something that can be easily modified. Worst case scenario is that I have to synthesize some glass of the right type and tint it myself. But I can do that. No problem.

[ She's not a fan of it when people are going out of their way for her, especially with something that seems so inane in comparison to their current situation. ]

Uh, how about you give me a list and I can make the store rounds? If I'm not sure about something, I can send you a pic through text? I just don't want to put you out...

[ He knows she has a hard time asking for what she needs, and so he'll let her do some scouting for materials in order not to feel she's putting him out. Besides, he already knows she's very competent at finding things in the Hadriel environment. But her request doesn't seem inane to Curufin. If her eyes are sensitive to all this light, then she must protect them. ]

All right. First, see if there are already any sunglasses. If they were made for the gods' former hosts, I wouldn't be surprised if there were eight lenses! [ He doesn't know for sure what those beings looked like, even though many months ago somebody dredged up a body from the lake. Curufin never asked. But he's fairly sure it wasn't very human-like. ] If you find such a thing, I can modify it for human use.

But next best is tinted glass or plastics. And if not tinted, then clear. I can tint them myself. Big chunks of glass are good -- I can grind lenses, I have the tools for that.

Hmm, let me see. I still have some metal wire to make wireframes. But if you find any brass, copper, or steel wire, bring it. It would be nice to have a few choices.

Yes, you can text me a picture if you're not sure. That would be good.
