...this is the neatest thing I've ever seen. I want one for home so bad.

-Right! This is Sorey, please leave me a message so I can get back to you!

Then...hopefully Lailah can find someone else.

People have told me that while we're here, time is frozen. That when we make it back home, it's as if we were never gone. I can't really comprehend something like that, so I'm just trying to reassure myself, really.

[airily]

You know they'll be fine, right?

[ His voice goes a little quieter. ]

Lailah, Rose... Edna... They're all really strong. If we're gone for a while they'd handle it until we get back.

Re: voice

[monolike]

That's pretty much the only reason I can still act the way I do here. I know the world is in capable hands.

voice

[airily]

Then we've got nothing to worry about, right?

[ And here we go, back to cheer. ]

We can have fun for a little while, you and me. We can even get back to searching for those babes...

voice

[monolike]

But Mikleo's already here. [??????]

voice

[airily]

[ JESUS -- ]

Not the kind of babe I mean, Sorey!

voice

[monolike]

Plus, well, there's...someone else here you should be aware of.

...it's Dezel. He's here, alive. [sorry for the downer party dad]

voice

[airily]

[ Jaw clenched, and then - ]

Yeah. I heard.

voice

[monolike]

Did you talk to him?

voice

[airily]

Nah. Meebo told me.

Re: voice

[monolike]

...are you going to?

voice

[airily]

Sure, I guess, when he finds me.

voice

[monolike]

I could talk to him first, if you want. He might take it better if he hears about you from me.

voice

[airily]

We both know that's not true, Sorey.

voice

[monolike]

[well, but...] My pact with him, it's- it's still intact. But I can feel the pact with you, too.

voice

[airily]

[ Well, this is just as awkward as he ever imagined that it could be. ]

Don't worry about it, your Shepherdness! I'll keep out of your head so he can have dibs.

voice

[monolike]

What?! No! Why would you have to do that?

voice

[airily]

Have you ever had someone argue in your brain before? I'm sure it can't be fun.

voice

[monolike]

Mikleo and Edna are always fighting. I'm definitely used to it. Even if I wasn't, I can handle it fine!

voice

[airily]

[ Goddamnit, Sorey isn't making this easy on him... ]

And what about Mikleo and Dezel? Think they'll be able to handle it?

voice

[monolike]

-we'll figure something out. And I know Mikleo would say the same thing, so no trying to use him as an excuse! You're a part of us like everyone else is, Zaveid. You aren't just a replacement filling a need.

voice

[airily]

[ Aw, damn. Sorey goes and hits the nail on the head before he can even do anything, and Zaveid breathes out a noise. It's not that easy, and with history as it is - well. ]

Sure, whatever you say, Sorey. I'm just gonna need a little time, okay?

Re: voice

[monolike]

...okay.

But- Zaveid. If you need me, for whatever reason- promise me you won't hesitate to call for me. And I promise the same.

voice

[airily]

[ Aw, man... ]

Whatever you say. I'll call on you.
