I turn away from the communicators for a week or so, just to clear my head...and what do I find when I pick it back up? More--

[There's the electric snap of the communicator followed by a hiss of pain...Simon takes a moment and proceeds to ignore the scientist's 'friendly reminder'.]More death. What a surprise

Can't say I don't agree with you. It never ends.

Evening, Hawkeye. At least you're doing a better job keeping calm about it...

[voice]

[yankeedoodledr]

Oh trust me, I've done my fair share of raging but it never worked out as well as I hoped.

People never change, there's always some nutjob out there who thinks that it's great fun to increase the workload for us for whatever screwed up reason.

[a light snort]

Stop trying to cheer me up.

[not_riku_thx]

If you want to be a doctor someplace that'd appreciate it...

Offer still stands.

For you and River both.

[keepyou_safe]

It isn't a matter of being appreciated...

I'll remember it, Prydain, if I ever need a new place. Thank you.

[paincuresall]

HA! I was wondering how long it would take for someone to recognize that.

Want to know the secret to my youth?

[keepyou_safe]

Not particularly...but I get the feeling you're going to tell me anyway.

[paincuresall]

It's no fun telling if not interested.

[mrbaseballfan]

Now you know partially why I stopped working at the clinic.

[keepyou_safe]

It seems so.

How are you these days, Ness?

[mrbaseballfan]

..Better.

I'm still sick of all that's happening, though.

I want my powers back, I wanna get my treasure to work, so I can be really strong and stop people from hurting..I could stop them without killing anyone.

..Sorry, just feeling a little helpless lately. Training at Gohl and playing with the younger kids is helping me a little, though.

[keepyou_safe]

Don't apologize, I asked...

Keep up with your training if it helps. Being able to fight even while you have your chip is a valuable skill, especially here.

I am glad to hear that things are better, even if it's slow going.

[quirky_sitar]

But Simon! If the Sneaky Group shuts the powers off again, then the water'll....we'll have to wait for rain.

[keepyou_safe]

We survived without your powers before Demyx, we could do it again. Relying on one or two people for something as critical as clean water is dangerous anyway. What if something happened to you? What if they decided to send you back?

[quirky_sitar]

You know I'm trying really hard to be useful here...

[keepyou_safe]

They've sent people back who were just as useful as you, if not more so.
