Resilience

"Anything going on this weekend?" Sloan asked casually, sauntering through the cube farm. "This is the weekend to actually be seen in public on a date with some beer; gonna catch some live music at the pub," Dev responded, rubbing their hands together with glee. "Sounds like a love connection," Sloan grinned. "Pandemic paunch is the enemy; I'm going back to the gym," Al groaned. "Happy tortures, man," Sloan replied. "Break a tendon ... and ... how about you, Kelvin?" Pale and serious, Kelvin pivoted slowly in his chair. "It is time to reinforce the wards and check the barrows for wights." Not knowing what to say, Sloan eventually just gave Kelvin the "thumbs up" and kept moving. Everybody built resilience a different way.
