thirty ninth dance | voice;

[motioned]

I just wanted to let everyone know that I'm all back to normal now. Um, thank you for everyone who was concerned or offered to help. It really does mean a lot.

[Still, despite that good news, her voice doesn't very relieved or happy. It doesn't sound sad, either; it's carefully neutral instead as she moves on.]

That's not really all I wanted to say, though. For anyone who knew Davesprite while he was here, he's gone home. He was, um, the orange boy with the wings. The timing seems pretty bad, I know, but I'm sure he wasn't in the hunt, so nobody should worry about that. I called and it kept ringing, so... For what it's worth, though, I'm sorry to all the friends he had here.

I guess that's all I really had to say.

i'm really sorry, then.

we don't know each other, but if you want to talk about it, i can listen.

[reassures]

What is there to talk about?

He's gone.

text

[motioned]

i just meant if you're upset, sometimes it helps to talk about things like that

i'm sorry if i said something wrong, though

text

[reassures]

No-- you didn't. There just isn't really anything to talk about. It won't bring him back.

text

[motioned]

but i think even if he's not here, it's still important that he was here. i don't know if that makes sense but he still matters, so... how you feel about it still matters, too.

it's fine if you don't have anything to say, though.

text | sorry about that!

[reassures]

Of course he still matters. Why wouldn't he matter?

I'm sorry. I don't have anything to say.

text; no worries! sorry about the edit fdhf

[motioned]

i just meant that since he matters, what you feel about him leaving still matters, even if it won't bring him back.

don't apologize!

text; s'all good o/

[reassures]

...I didn't want him to go. But-- there's nothing else I really have to say.

text;

[motioned]

that's okay, you don't have to say anything. i just wanted to try and help somehow

text;

[reassures]

I know. Thank you.

text;

[motioned]

there's nothing to thank me for

text;

[reassures]

You wanted to help. Why shouldn't I thank you?

text;

[motioned]

because i couldn't actually help even though i wanted to

text;

[reassures]

I think the thought still counts.

text;

[motioned]

well in that case, you're welcome.

text;

[reassures]

It's Ahiru, right?

I'm Nill.

[motioned]

yes! it's nice to meet you, nill. it's too bad it had to be because of something like this, though

[reassures]

It is-- but it's nice to meet you too.
