[ipod_less]

[Darcy wakes with a start. Heart pounding, head swimming. She is dead. Isn't she? Isn't she supposed to be dead? She remembers getting caught by those soldiers. And the man. The veternan man who'd never heard of a bouncy castle and was worse off for it. And he was asking them questions about Stark Tower and the people hiding inside. And then...he

voice;

...Darcy?! [ The sound of nearly dropping the phone is heard. ] Darcy. Are you really...

[ipod_less]

[Sorry, Jane. Can't hear you. Darcy can't hear anything on the voice end and frowns. Then she texts Jane.]

Did you butt dial me, Jane?

[chasesstars]

Butt dial you--I'm talking to you! Aren't I? You are Darcy, right? Not some kind of illusion or whatever else it could be?

[ipod_less]

Jane, seriously. I freaking *died*. I'd appreciate a concerned word or a look or something.

Fix your phone.

[The relief and joy on his bruised up face is something he's never let show before. He's beyond relieved she's alive and he can't quite think of anything to say at first. He stares at the name on the list, eyes wide, and then gives her a watery smile, tears pricking his eyes.]

Darcy, you're alive. Thank God, you're alive.

[ipod_less]

wibbly-ing this to after she beat the shit out of Vulpes

[Darcy's set her phone to vibrate when people contacted her and she lifts the phone, a small, broken sob escaping her when she sees his face. She sees his mouth move, but like Jane, like Vulpes, she can't hear what he says. There's not even white noise, a ringing in her ears. Nothing. Just the occasional vibration when she speaks. Then, she can't even hear that, she just feels it.]

Maggy, I can't hear you. I came back wrong. I'm deaf.

[greatmagnus]

What?

[He can't quite believe it, and he finally just goes for text, trying not to panic about everything. She's alive, he'll take that over her being dead any day.]

It's okay. I'm just glad you're alive. Where are you? I need to see you.

[ipod_less]

I'm just off the Mother's Plantation. You won't believe what just happened.

[The adrenaline's still pumping through her.]

[Thor has a bright grin, and although he's sure she's been through enough, he can't help wanting to squeeze her until she can't breathe.]

You did not miss much. Are you well?

[ipod_less]

[This sucks. This sucks big time. She gets to see the faces of the people she loves but she can't hear them.]

I know you don't like texting big guy, but I'm deaf. I don't know how it happened but I...I came back wrong. I can't hear a thing. I can't even hear myself talk.

[flipsalltables]

You cannot hear anything? Nothing at all?

Do you need help? I can come to you, take you home if you need me to. The war is over, for now, so you can rest assured you are safe.

[ipod_less]

Nothing. I can talk just fine but I can't even hear it. There's nothing.

Magnus is on his way. But I would not mind a visit when I got home. I need Thor-hugs in a bad way.

[Just wait until she tells you that she kicked the ass of the bastard that killed her.]

[Dean isn't sure about this video. He's still battered beyond reason, and she only just came back to life, it's not something she would probably want to see. But he can't text well one-handed.] The world ended. Sorry to break it to you.

Nah, I'm kidding. The jerks who took over have been dragged down kicking and screaming. We won, for now. [And Darcy coming back is a good sign, even if he's still wary and will make her drink holy water.]

[ipod_less]

[Darcy gasps softly at the sight of Dean. Thank God she can't understand him or she would hit him for the world ending comment.]

Couple things. One, I'm deaf. Can't hear a damn thing. Two, WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED TO YOU?

[likemichael]

Well, that sucks. I talked to that crazy Paula Deen clone, and she said it's a price for coming back. She said it'll only last a little while.

And a demon made me his chew toy. It's cool. Just a broken arm and some scrapes.

[ipod_less]

A price? Well, excuse me for dying. I didn't know it was such a big deal bringing a person back to life.

Well, I mean. You know what I mean.

No, Dean. It's not cool. What did I tell you about going and getting hurt?
