Oh wow.

[fromthesurface]

I turn my back and all hell breaks loose.

Homestar's gone. Though he has Malaise's mailing address; I'm sure he'll write explaining things... and I can make other friends. I'm an adult, I can do that sort of thing.

And the man from before... he... he's...

I never responded to him. Funny time to remember that, Quote.I think I need to sleep this

You hanging in there alright, Quote?

[fromthesurface]

Yeah, I'm fine. Just surprised, really. And the comment thing is a silly thing to feel guilty about, so I'll get over it.

If someone hadn't died today, I might feel worse about Homestar being gone, but it kinda puts things into perspective. He's just going home, not dead. I can live with that.

[physical_jesus]

Death is never a silly thing, so don't feel like it is. It's alright to grieve, even if you don't know that person. That's what grief counsellors will tell you, at least.

You two were pretty close, huh? I'm sorry your friend had to leave, but I'm sure he'll send you letters. Maybe even come visit.

[fromthesurface]

Mm. Yeah.

At any rate, I'll be fine. Just a bit worn out.

[strahlpilot]

Homestar had me get sonething for you when I went into town earlier. I'll look up your room and bring it to you shortly.

[fromthesurface]

Did he? Alright. I'll be here.
