"H... hello? Um, this is me-- ah, Noire! I'm Noire, and I'm very sorry for missing you somehow... I promise I'm not avoiding you, unless you're scary or you're Mo-- trying to curse me. U-um, so when I can figure out how to-- ( beeps ensue, followed by a shriek of fright ) O-oh, no! What did I push, how do I-- make it-- oh gods, did I break it?! W-why can't we just talk in person?!"

As nightmare-inducing as the thing is, it seems like a shame destroying it. It isn't every day you come across ways to revive the dead.

[bloodandblunder]

It's not a very good idea to look into too deeply... even if you revive someone, chances are that they're not who they used to be. Mother used to say that.

[memlost]

Hmm. Your mother would know best. Now that I think about it, all of that time in the dirt would probably leave their bodies a little rickety and unsavory anyway.

[ And maggoty... blegh. ]

[bloodandblunder]

... C-could we maybe not talk about corpses so much? Please?

[ she just woke up from being dead after being in a room with dead statues, she's looking a little ill. ]

[memlost]

Oh, right. Sorry.

[ She did just get back... think relaxing thoughts!! ]

Um... So Morgan should be back today as well! She'll probably be a little miserable too, so I was thinking about lugging her here once she pops up so you guys can recoup together.

[ misery loves company?! ]

[bloodandblunder]

[ Her poor friend, dying... after a short, thoughtful pause, Noire nods. ]

As long as it's not any strain on her... I'd like to see her.

[memlost]

I'll find a way to get her here strain-free! And this way, it'll be easier for me to tend to both of you. I can try to drag Gerome over too once he shows up, but something tells me he won't be the most willing patient.

[ As in he'll explicitly say "DON'T LOOK FOR ME"... that gerome ]

[bloodandblunder]

He never really liked recuperating around anyone other than Minerva... but don't push yourself either, please.

[memlost]

Never.

[ lies ]

Anyway, I'll stop by her house and see if she's made it back yet. Is there anything else you need before I go?

[bloodandblunder]

[ The look that she gives him suggests that she knows that's a lie, but she sighs and sets her cup down. ]

I'll be fine... so you don't need to worry about me.

[memlost]

[ The smile that he gives her suggests that he knows she knows, though it tries to be assuring. ]

... All right. I'll get going then. Stay cozy!

[ AND AWAY HE GOES. ]

[bloodandblunder]

... Stay safe. [ Except he's gone by then, so she'll finish her water and curl up again.

... And likely doze off, sorry. ]
