[BUDDY. . .]

[a small snort, but he repeats what he told Tyr]

[dadinside]

[swallows most of it.]

How strong?

[survivaltricks]

[head tilt]

How strong. . . what?

[dadinside]

Sense of smell.

[do they need an animal's sense of smell for this task, or ...]

[survivaltricks]

Ah.

Pretty strong. A human's definitely won't cut it.

[dadinside]

What's the point of finding out our names?

[survivaltricks]

Mmm. . .

[a thoughtful pause as he tries to put his own feelings into words]

For me. . . it's regaining a piece of myself, you know? It's mine, so. . . I want it back.

[dadinside]

[he... gets it. sorta. but he's in a business where his identity isn't really public knowledge.]

And if it's a trap?

[survivaltricks]

It's not.

[he says that so confidently. . .]

Which isn't to say it won't be dangerous. But I think we all need to decide for ourselves how much the risk is worth it.

[dadinside]

Seems weird they'd suddenly give us our names back.

[survivaltricks]

I don't think that's quite it.

It's more like. . . [mmm] They aren't being "given" back. We just have the ability to "reclaim" them again.

[dadinside]

[he's still ?????

but.]

Let me know if you need any backup.

[he could still help someone else get theirs.]

[survivaltricks]

[flashing him a grin]

Tyr and I are going to try to get ours back for sure. You're welcome to come along with us-- and whoever else wants to reclaim their own names.

. . . even if you don't want your own back just yet.

[dadinside]

Sure. Then I could see how it works.

[atm he's pretty sure he's not changing his mind, but since it sounds like it'll be difficult he'd like to help.]
