[goodbye post]

Last night I dreamed, and there was space and light and we were dancing again out in the black. The wall isn't a wall anymore, and she isn't held.

...Oh, xiao mei-mei. I hardly got to see you.

[litl_albatross]

[hugging, yes]

I'm sorry. I didn't know.

Try not to be mad at them.

[using_wiles]

*hugs back I have no hugging icon wry*

It's all right. These things... well, they happen in cycles, don't they?

I promise.

[litl_albatross]

Everything does. Nature of things. It's unfair.

They need looking after. More than I could.

[doctorquincy]

River?

[litl_albatross]

Ryuuken.

I think I have to go.

[cling. also, wearing your dress and necklace]

I won't ever forget.

[dont_go_smooth]

... River?

[litl_albatross]

Captain. Can you go through?

[dont_go_smooth]

I surely want to. Where's it at? Can y'show me?

[using_wiles]

River? You'll need shoes. Here, take mine, you don't know what you'll encounter until you go home.

[litl_albatross]

They're too big. I'll be all right.

[...and failing at the being strong thing. cliiiing]

[sisterskeeper]

They're better than you being barefoot. You could step on anything. We can stuff the rest of it with my shirt or something similar.

*hands over a bag. awkwardly, but you get that.*

In here's your medication. Tell Zoe to give it to you three times a day. And don't cry, I hate it when you cry.

[litl_albatross]

I'll get mine. You need them.

You can't go through, can you?

[peachykeenlife]

*is somehow standing on both sides of the barrier at the same time*

It's that time, is it?

[sisterskeeper]

You're taking her home?

[peachykeenlife]

I'm seeing her home. Not quite the same thing.

[sisterskeeper]

She's the last, you see. And I - I need to know that she goes home safely.
