[Max trots over to say hello to Lela, barking excitedly.

Yeah! Melody's person know him too so maybe when everyone's getting along again the new person can live with them.]

[York can kind of guess what's going on in the conversation, but they've moved on from what might be educated guesses to either Wash's making things up or his actually understanding Maine's growls. He tries to work out which as he bends to pet Lela.]

Uh, yeah, the dream eaters can be a big help sometimes. So you've met Lela - this girl - already?

[York glances sideways at Wash, especially after he opens the private channel and responds on the same.]

Okay so then later you'll tell me how you're having this conversation, right?
