[Well he's not wrong...]

I don't need them worrying about me...

[freedom_engineer]

Is that what you think? If Keith's here, Allura already knows you're here. Better to tell her that you're rooting for her than to leave her wondering, hmm?

Don't sell yourself short, Pidge. You're not a burden, you're an asset to any team you're on.

I can see you've got the skill, you just need the environment to let it grow. Have some faith in yourself.

[bliptech]

[Normally Pidge wouldn't doubt herself so much, but Shiro's words from the shadow encounter still rang in her head. "I can't lose another Holt..." She had never thought about how painful it must have been for Shiro to be a part of a team that had the sibling and daughter of the crew he had lost. She really didn't know what to say to that, because he was right.] Sorry... [cough]

[freedom_engineer]

Don't worry about apologizing to me. Just worry about getting yourself back into functioning order, and kicking some puzzle ass.

I'm almost done with this application, it'll have a replay feature so you can see exactly what you did when you solve it.

[bliptech]

[There's a soft sigh that hints at wheezing again, an uncomfortable bubbling happening in her chest.] I'll do my best.

[freedom_engineer]

[A few moments later, her phone beeps.]

[Attached: Puzzle Slider]

I know you will.

The controls are easy. Swipe with your fingers, or use your keypad. Four cardinal directions only.

You can set save points if you know you're on the right track, or if you want to go back to a set point. There's a tutorial if you need it.

Anything else I can do for you?

[bliptech]

Thanks. [She's quiet for a bit, going over the puzzle a few quick times just to see how it works and how it lines up with the current actual puzzle in the floor. Something beeps, and she sucks in a sharp breath.] ... Shiro is calling me.

[freedom_engineer]

[Colin smiles.]

Take it. Talk to him. His voice will do you some good.

[bliptech]

[He's going to worry, but that's natural. Hopefully there's some way she can convince him she'll make it out of this.] Alright. Thanks, Colin.
