nightchild | holds up ruby... baby... baby girl

[STOP I REGRET SO MUCH!!!]

'Course. I'd have still wanted to check in on you, even if you hadn't gone today.

[since it's thursday.... he'll sit next to her.]

...I'm glad you're healing. Te-kun and Crow were being pretty stubborn for a second there.

[ she smiles, very happy to have him here. ]

Those two...[ sighs ] I'm glad they gave in and did finally get help. I worry about them.

[ ruby just: MY BIRDS ]

We could probably bring the prism down with all our worrying.

[he's smiling though, but also like he means it too? why are they like this???]

But enough about them -- what about you?

[ they're both so cute, please. ]

Me? I'm...[ she would try to lie, but it's pretty obvious she isn't doing great! ruby your arm. ]

It was scary...there were a lot of things that happened, that I won't be able to get out of my head, ever...

[ frowns. ]...I'm just glad we made it back, alive.

...I'm glad too.

[quietly, his gaze soft]

I heard a little about it from Clarte. ...That's not something you should have gone through, even if it was for Shale-chan's sake.

[ she nods, sighing a little. ]

The reason we even ended up there was to save missing people, from here...which I guess was never real in the first place?

[ it clearly was not, but the prism has it's ways of making them believe things that aren't. frowns. ]

...It's hard. We know in the back of our minds that it's probably an illusion, but... there's no way we wouldn't take that risk anyway.

You're right...this place has so many ways of making us believe things. I just think none of us wanted to take the risk...especially after the dreams we had and not being able to get ahold of anyone.

[ it was all likely a dream, but in that moment, they just had to be sure. ]

I heard about the phone part from Crow, but he didn't mention a dream.

[dreams.... knife emoji]

We all had different dreams, about home, before we woke up and found out they were missing. They started off really nice, happy, safe...but then turned into nightmares. We could hear them calling out to us in the dream, but when we look they were no where to be found...

[ shakes her head. dreams bad. ]

That's why we all ran around trying to find them, once we woke up. There was a butterfly, that led us all to the central node and that's where the archway was...

[...he pinches the bridge of his nose]

So it's not enough to just whisk us away anymore, huh. We have to suffer a little here, before we get whisked away.

[ her fist curls in the blanket a little. ]

I really don't like it...seeing my friends suffer like that.

[ she sounds frustrated. ]

[can't believe ruby has to discover crow tomorrow]

...Me neither. Whether it's illusion or real... you still end up feeling helpless.

[ closes my eyes so tight. it's fine...! ]

Exactly...which is why none of us hesitated to go through the archway...

[ she sighs ]

...Somehow it all worked out, in the end...

[IS IT???]

...I'm glad it did. [and he means that! even though team ruby + clarte + percy + crow are all traumatized....] And I'm glad you got to see that they were safe.

[they meaning ruby's person,]</small.

[ LOOK IF SHE HAD A NICKEL FOR EVERYTIME HER UNCLE C(Q)ROW ALMOST DIED. SHE WOULD HAVE TWO NICKELS!!! ]

Me too...[ she closes her eyes for a moment, then smiles a little. ]

Seeing Vin there, when we got back, was such a relief.

[i forgot that qrow does the same thing im losnig my mind]

It's a good thing she wasn't on a Thursday adventure too.

[their vin... sweet vin...]

[i had that realization and started yelling out loud.]

Definitely...I was so worried that would be the case, too.

[ :stressedbun: ]

I know Clarte and Crow were panicked when Damien and Garou weren't there...

[ruby and her found family of bird men who run off to get hurt]

Right... [garou and his stupid CHEST HOLE and...] ...I saw them both earlier, and they both looked okay. Except Damien lost his memories of Crow, so.

[he sighs]

[ they stress her out so much. sighs. ]

I'm glad their both alright....oh no.

[ hateful!! ]

Hopefully he remembers, after a few days...

...Yeah. My memories eventually came back, so I'm sure his will too.

[even though damien doesn't seem that bothered by it]

That's good...I know Crow will be antsy until they do.

[ frowns about yall forgetting your bfs. ]

[look at least buzen is deda...]

...He's a pretty lucky guy to have you looking after him.

[HE MEANS THIS IN A PLATONIC FAMILY WAY]

[ our widower itsuki... ]

He reminds me a lot of my uncle, back home...they even share a name.

[ except for the 'q' ]

They're both incredibly stubborn too. [ she sighs. ] But they care a whole lot, and that's what I love the most about them.

[ a soft smile. ]

[this is so softe.... crow why did u end up on a mountain and traumatize ruby,]

He definitely is incredibly stubborn, so it's a good thing you're here.

[it's good to know that Ruby has Percival and Crow with her, he wonders if Chang Geng feels more at ease too...]
