It seems there's been quite a lot to discuss this past week. ...I'm curious, especially about those who come from my world, but I won't force the issue if your decision is private.

...Though if you are going to answer, please speak. I don't have my glasses. [or the faculty to give written replies]

[Have a soft knock on your door.]

[Action]

[silversnowfall]

Come in.

[Peony enters your room, closing the door gently behind him. Despite probably checking on you every hour or something:]

How are you?

[Action]

[silversnowfall]

About the same as I was the last time you asked me.

[Well, as long as she can manage teasing him, she's fine. He takes a seat on the edge of her bed.]

Do you need anything? Tea? Food? I can always whip you something up.

Nephry-san! Um...are you feeling any better, are you?

[voice]

[silversnowfall]

Yes, I am. Much better, actually. ...Thank you for helping me, Rena.

[voice]

[flower-of-hell.livejournal.com]

Really? I'm so glad to hear that!

Um...it wasn't any problem! Rena was glad to help!

[voice]

[silversnowfall]

I can quite honestly say I don't know what would have happened if you hadn't answered me.

[voice]

[flower-of-hell.livejournal.com]

[There's silence on her end for a moment, before:]

You would have been okay, Nephry-san! I'm sure Peony-san would have found you before something happened!

[...No, she doesn't want to think about that possibility that he might have been too late. D|]

[voice]

[emp3thy]

How are you, Nephry-san?

[He's probably stopped by at least once since her last entry, since that was worrying, but might not have gotten to talk to her directly then.]

[voice]

[silversnowfall]

[no, she's been mostly asleep, or too out of it to really talk for long. Today's the first day she has really felt well enough to do things]

I'm much better. I apologize for concerning you.

[voice]

[emp3thy]

That's good to hear.

[voice]

[silversnowfall]

How have you been?

[voice]

[emp3thy]

All right.

My decision should be fairly obvious, I'd assume. Though how about you, Nephry?

[Private]

[silversnowfall]

Professor... [aww. Poor Gelda]

...It may not matter. I'm not exactly in the best condition.

[Private]

[fonon-professor.livejournal.com]

If you truly wish to go home, I'm certain someone would be able to help you get to the portal. This opportunity may never come again.

[Private]

[silversnowfall]

[you are the last person she expected to back up her decision]

I don't feel I have a choice. It's my responsibility. ...And though I have made friends here...the situation is impossible.

[Private]

[fonon-professor.livejournal.com]

[After her talk with ANI's creator, Gelda's not quite so sure whether this letter is a trap or not. If Nephry wants to go home, this portal might be her best chance to do so.]

I don't believe responsibilities should affect your decision. Governors can be replaced. What matters most is your own happiness.

[voice]

[baranodist.livejournal.com]

I see no reason to go back.

[voice]

[silversnowfall]

Really?

[voice]

[baranodist.livejournal.com]

Of course. Even if the letter could be trusted, which it likely can't, I'd rather stay here.

[voice]

[silversnowfall]

You like it here, then?

[does he even know she's been in bed for a week because of the Malnosso?]

[voice]

[baranodist.livejournal.com]

Well, it's certainly better than that dreadful cell in Grand Chokmah. And the Professor's here.
