[Harper's slumped back on his bed, dangling a piece of string down for his mongoose to chase around his sheets. He looks kinda calmer than usual, maybe a bit more subdued.]
Sometimes it seems like one step forward two steps back in this place. Kinda weird how... uh, how-- [No, mongoose, bite the string! Not the engineers hand! Harper makes a brief escape, then goes back to dangling.] I mean, anyone ever notice how sometimes the shittiest days come and go the quietest?
[He pauses for a minute, then scoops the mongoose up in one hand, and drops the other down to stroke across it's back affectionately.]
So how's everybody doing? Let's all here it for the people who aren't vanishing, comatose, or struggling with the silent ache of loss and heartbreak!
[And he shoots you all a wry little grin, as if to say: Like me.]
[Private to Rex]
Hey, I'm coming over to see you, so brace yourself for my immanent arrival.
[ooc: Sorry Barge, IT'S BEDTIME! Tags will be got at tomorrow!]

Uh, yeah, about that...
[Pause]
...Uhura and I have... we've decided to just go back to being friends, for a little while. I mean, she still really likes you, and she still wants to hang out with us from time to time, but... well, if we ever go camping again, you and me get to share a tent, instead of me and her sharing.
