[@Lovejoy][@CollectorOfMyst] hey guys.  Lovely post, Myst!  I have been offline for a week so I only just now saw it.  I have no issues with Oren doing a lot of talking.  And his suggestions might not pan out, but that's not a huge issue either.  I should get a reply up in the next couple days (still settling back in after a rather unexpected time away.  @.@) or possibly tonight.  <3

Ziotea might notice something off, but I don't think she'd figure it out yet.  She doesn't know Oren that well yet, and while she's pretty confident she also knows she has to work with him on their upcoming mission.
