[There's a lot of LOUD static for about a minute before a clatter as the communicator falls to the floor. The video is activated- someone's completely pink, scarred arm is dangling off the bed, fingers twitching every so often. A moment later there's a loud gasp and a boy darts up in bed, trembling.

Minato.

He must have been sleeping for hours. His

[Nill transmits an audible gasp. She had been waiting anxiously for his... revival.]

[purgatory_maren]

...Nill?

[There is a halting pause, followed by a sniffle and a soft hiccup. She just can't help herself. Ever since he had to die...

Her words are typed in slow.]

I'm so glad. ...so glad...

Welcome back, Minato.

[Voice]

[purgatory_maren]

Thank you... I'm okay, please- don't cry... I promise I'm alright.

[tinybatman]

...it's really good to hear from you again, Minato-san.

[purgatory_maren]

Ken-kun. Thank you. Is everything alright?

[tinybatman]

We're all holding up okay.

[purgatory_maren]

Good... Did any of you- ...You're all accounted for?

[loyal_credo]

It's good to see you're back.

Considering the mass hysteria during the mess yesterday, I think we did well. As I live on the fourth floor of Latimir I was already there when things went sour. I worked on helping people out of the building most of the day and night.

[purgatory_maren]

Thank you, Credo. And... You didn't get injured, did you?

[loyal_credo]

Just minor scratches, nothing to worry about.

[purgatory_maren]

Good. Keep it that way... Do you know anything about this situation? What happened, or who caused it?

[withoutawing]

[Sephiroth would reply but his communicator is making like a bad thing and not doing much more but hiss and crack so it's all Minato's going to hear.]

[purgatory_maren]

[Minato stares down at the communicator as it crackles, then checks the frequency. He doesn't like the sound of this...]

Sephiroth!

[withoutawing]

[Heck, there are words there, but the voice is so tired sounding that the cracking is overriding most of them.]

--fine. --worry just-- self and Kadaj.

[purgatory_maren]

I can barely hear you! You better be okay... I think Kadaj might be on his way here- he sounded fine, but didn't say if he was coming. I think the only thing that would stop him is if he hasn't checked on his Mother yet.

[pursuestruth]

Minato...

[purgatory_maren]

Souji... Are you alright?

[pursuestruth]

Shouldn't I be the one asking you that?

[purgatory_maren]

I'm fine... Just a headache.
