[Jack is looking awkwardly into the camera--not that this is unusual--with a faint air of shame. This is a slightly embarrassing situation.]

Hi. I--

I'm just...lonely. I'm lonely.

video for once;

[forevercapslock]

That'll probably pass. But you know, if you need to hang out, I'm not exactly going anywhere.

[kindly_done]

Sure. We could hang out.

[forevercapslock]

I'M FREE WHENEVER.
ASSUMING THE CRAZY BROADS WILL LEAVE ME ALONE.

[kindly_done]

Want to meet me on the roof?

[turn4bout]

You going to be okay?

[kindly_done]

I guess so. It's only an event, right? It'll stop feeling so bad soon.

[turn4bout]

Yeah. But this event seems to be lasting longer than three of your Wonderland human days. Who knows when it'll stop.

[kindly_done]

It's harder to tell, when it's just messing up your feelings.

[paper_knight]

Hang in there. It's just the mansion.

[kindly_done]

I know, but...

I'm still lonely.

[kindly_done]

Yeah, I know.

I just wish...you know. Someone liked me that way.

aaand shameless audio

[pricesandvaules]

Want to spar?

[kindly_done]

[That sounds...great, actually.]

Yeah.

[pricesandvaules]

I'll wait for you in the hedge maze. Same rules we discussed.

[kindly_done]

Okay, I'll be there.

[He thinks about it for a second.]

No ambushing.

[postalmonarch]

[You have been feeling oddly lonely yourself, despite your general contentedness to be alone, so you're actually somewhere inside the mansion when you reply.]

Do you need to talk?

[kindly_done]

I think so, yeah.

[The weird part is, he has an odd sensation of relief--he's hearing from all the people he needed to hear from.

He just...didn't expect her to be so high on that list, considering that he's only known her a couple of weeks.]
