Summary: Wilbur has a talk with Sally, and Schlatt and Wilbur move from the campsite.
~~~
Wilbur was starting to get tired of their campsite. Sure it wasn't like it was the worst thing in the world, but he missed having a roof over his head. Like at L'Manburg....and maybe Pogtopia.
He cringed inwardly at the name. He wondered if he came up with it.
"I didn't...Tommy did." His inner voice whispered to himself.
How did he know that?
A memory flashed in his mind. A ravine, hanging up lanterns. He heard the laughing of Tommy and Technoblade in the distance.
It was slowly coming back.
Wilbur smiled to himself, a warm feeling blossoming in his chest at the thought of his brothers.
He carefully looked down at Schlatt, who had his head nestled on Wil's shoulder.
The sun had started to come up. Schlatt'll wake up anytime now.
Wilbur didn't want him to.
This feeling that he was beginning to have.....it reminded him of only one other being.
Sally.
....Yes. He needed to see her. Wilbur missed her so much.
And she didn't even know that he....
A spear of pain hit him.
He had to visit her today.

Schlatt yawned, arching his back and throwing out his arms to stretch.
He almost hit Wilbur in the face.
"Hey!" Wilbur blurted out.
"Oh, sorry babe." Schlatt replied sleepily.
Babe?
"Are me and Schlatt on 'babe' level?", Wilbur thought as Schlatt sat up, rubbing his eyes, "I mean we've kissed a few times...and cuddled...and slept next to each other..."
Schlatt finished waking up and flashed Wilbur a smile.
"What if we are? Is that so bad?"
"Good morning Schlatt." Wilbur shakily responded.
"Anything on the agenda today, Wil?" Schlatt asked as he got to his feet, walking over to their chest and shrugging on his jacket.
"I was actually going to see Sally today."
"...Sally? Your old girlfriend?" He looked over at Wil, his brows furrowing.
"Yeah. I haven't seen her in a while...." Wilbur looks at the ground, "She doesn't even know I'm dead. I need to tell her so she can..." He clenched his fist. "Move on. You know?"
