"Stay down... You mean on the ground." She ponders that, "I wondered that myself when I first came to the surface. The Stone keeps us when we're below and there isn't anywhere to fall to per say, but that's not so on the surface." She looks back up at him, keen interest replacing the existential terror of space, "I've read some papers that theorize about the forces that cause us to fall to begin with. Is that what you mean?"

"Huh. Okay," Amos says, and while the words are generally cheerful, his expression remain blank. "You get some marbles, I'll get a sheet, I'll show you next time."

Amos begins to walk off. "Won't miss a date with you, Sis."
