[ iris definitely hadn't meant for it to be a joke, but hearing wilhelm laugh about it makes him kind of wish he had done it on purpose. then maybe there'd be a better justification for how he feels so damn proud of himself for prompting it.
anyway, iris is getting a lot better at filtering his thoughts because when wilhelm trailed off like that, his first thought was definitely: there used to be more of us but... they DIED??? yeah. ]
Kyle? Yeah, that'd be great!
[ truthfully, iris doesn't know if he really wants to be a courier. while it's true it's probably a good idea to land himself some kind of income, if he's really going to make his way around this place, but it's not like he has any real desire to spend most of his time cycling around and — no offense, wilhelm — getting scrubby for it. but he's excited at the prospect of meeting more people here. excited, too, that he hasn't put wilhelm off enough that the other guy even still wants to do something that nice for him.
later, wilhelm says. so many things can come from that later. it even sounds like a promise. ]
