text, dated to brunchtime after the third wedding

Okay so here's the deal, I ran into one of the staff members emptying the trash from carriage 48 and a whole mess of dream boxes fell out. I mean like, a lot, both the last two days.

Don't know if that's what we smuggled them all in for, but they'd all been used. And the guy was spooked. Apparently the bigger ones cause attacks to the train or whole trains to be pulled into the dream or for the user to be able to pull parts of the dream into reality.

But here's the thing, he also said that a small-scale user could take the box and rewrite parts of reality with it. Pretty cool, right? How many boxes do you think there were? 'Cause we might be here awhile.

Oh, and he also said that you can always tell when something's a living dream, because they don't sleep. No matter how hard a thief tries to get them to. Sounds kinda awful.

Wait wait, before I go, Nynaeve wants me to ask if anyone's heard anything about the herbs or the tools going missing? 'Cause we don't know when those disappeared, right?

Pledge to ask aid, as needed.

[3point0]

Maybe I'll ask someone else's aid.

[downswing]

Stubborn.

[3point0]

Do you ever say more than three words at once?

[downswing]

On merit.

[3point0]

Oh, you're good.

[downswing]

Middling.

[3point0]

Now you're just teasing.

[downswing]

Successfully?

[3point0]

If you were I wouldn't admit to it.

[downswing]

Petty.

[3point0]

How is what you're doing less petty??

[downswing]

Taciturnity is discipline.

[3point0]

Excuses.

[downswing]

Explanations.

[3point0]

More excuses.

[downswing]

You reject my aid?

[3point0]

You don't wanna aid me in this. Trust me.

Don't you have a husband or something?

[downswing]

One who sympathises.

This woman may hurt.

[3point0]

Oh jeez, and he's gonna let you go sleep in somebody else's train car?

[downswing]

Simpler manners to refuse me.

[3point0]

So your husband's.... not on board? That's not good.

[downswing]

He understands necessity. The greater good.

[3point0]

Huh, okay. Maybe he can help too.

[downswing]

Respectfully declined.
