OPTION 1

[she is the novice, here. still - a bucket of fish, any fish at all, is nothing to sneeze at. vi caught what she caught, and that's cool with her. she's stayed out of the worst of the crowd, spent time both in comfortable silence and a bit of not unwelcome conversation, so ...there are worse days to have.

she shrugs, nodding. gives him the thumbs up.]

Maybe, yeah. Was still a good time, and really ...cool of you.

Any time!

[ The old man smiles. ]

I'm always game for a rematch!

[ The sun begins to set over the sea. The incredible view brings Sato a light heart. ]

We'll have to head back soon. But look at the sky!

[ He walks over to the railing and extends a finger outward. No matter the challenges ahead, one thing is certain: it's important to enjoy the happy moments. ]

You know, when we get back I'll help pack your fish for you. How does that sound?

[ Sato smiles. He has no intention of keeping her hard earned haul. ]

[faceblocks]

Me too, Sato. Anytime.

[the last time she'd looked at the sky - evening, not sunset - it had been one of the worst things she could have gazed upon - this, right now, is the opposite of that. it's another indicator that things are different here. reality's different. she can be different. when she looks at it a lump forms in her throat, but it's not ...bad. it's just a lot. her face is writ in wonder and wordlessness.]

Sounds like a plan.

[the happy moments have been rare - and usually turned on a dime into heartache and disaster, so this is ...again, unexpected.]

[ Once the fishing boat docks, Sato prepares a box for the fish. He hands Vi her catch with a smile. ]

It was a pleasure meeting you. Stay safe out there!
