I can't believe it's been a whole year.  It feels like I've been here for so much longer than that.  I guess this place does that to you.

[She couldn't look at the camera anymore.]

Kinda can't help but wonder if people from my world would even recognize me anymore. Katara... Even Sokka-- [The list ends there.] This place has a habit of changing

Comments

[nonmetus]

A whole year...?

You know, I'm sure they would. You're stronger than you think.

[tessenwarrior]

Thanks James... [It was more than just strength; it was about forgiveness, but Suki wasn't going to say that to James, since it would be about Sokka forgiving her for being with James. So, her voice was had a hint of insincerity.]

[nonmetus]

Oh, come off it, Suki. Yes, it's been a year, but what of it? It's just one more day than yesterday.

[tessenwarrior]

That's not... [Fighting wasn't on her to do list, so she just backed off.] At least this place gives me some good memories.

[liesbysmiles]

I think life changes people, but your friends are till your friends, right?

[tessenwarrior]

I'll always care about them, even though it's been a year since I last saw them. I just wonder if they'll forgive me for some of my actions. I know they will once they understand this place, but I still worry about it.

[liesbysmiles]

... I know it's hard. There are things that happen here that we couldn't justify in our true worlds. I think that goes for all of us.

[tessenwarrior]

Yeah, and it's hard to explain things to them when they haven't been here.

[There was a long pause.]

Do you mind if I ask you something? I know we don't know each other that well, but maybe you can give me some insight.

[sergeantlight]

...A whole year, huh?

[Her eyes narrows slightly.] Doesn't matter you should give up, if you're getting at that.

[tessenwarrior]

I'll never give up. Getting out of here will always be the most important thing.

I'm sorry, instead of "matter" i meant to put "mean". orz. Sorry!!!

[sergeantlight]

Mm [A nod of approval.]

From what little I know about this place, being here a year...You have resolve. Just don't lose it. [That was the extent of complementing, rare as it was, that Lighting could do.]

[She crosses her arms over her chest, studying the girl through the screen.] I doubt someone could change to being completely unrecognizable.

lol it's ok /cuddles

[tessenwarrior]

No, I won't. I'm still determined as ever to get out of here.

And... it's more about forgiveness than anything.

[mydarkresolve]

Suki...

[A small, reassuring smile, although her voice has a hunt of sadness.] People change, it's only normal!

[A pause.] You okay?

[tessenwarrior]

Yeah I'm fine. [She smiles.] Sorry for worrying you. Just have a lot on my mind.

[mydarkresolve]

...You don't need to apologize, Suki. [Another smile]

You want to talk about it? [A pleasant shrug.] I'll always listen, if you need it. It's sometimes better to just let your thoughts out! [Says Lenalee, who doesn't do that often....]

[tessenwarrior]

[This was awkward... but-] Yeah sure. Ummm... want to meet up? Maybe the rec room?

[tessenwarrior]

Lucy! [And suddenly smiles~] You're not in my suite anymore, are you?

[tessenwarrior]

I will miss having you right next door, but I will visit.

Yeah, I'm fine. Really, I am.
