Godsdamn, why now? Why does this have to happen now? Stupid question, but is there any way to tell if someone's gone home for good, not just been droned for a period of time

I don't see what all the fuss is about, honestly. All I've seen is a couple people with missin' eyes and finger. Took care of one little lady missing hers.

[resurrectinto]

Usually, a lot of people don't appreciate missing limbs. Funny thing, that.

[ponypuncher]

But they're just fingers! I lost mine and I feel great! A guy I know lost his eye, and he's doing just fine, nephew lost his fingers, he's fine, that girl I helped out lost hers and she's fine as far as I know

[resurrectinto]

Yeah, so? I've lost an eye -- not here, I'm not fucking stupid -- but it's still a shock.

A-ah, that depends… I noticed that when Sniper was droned, and then Natu was, the name on our mailbox kept changing...

A-and… and… Massimo, he… he went back to being human again… [He trials off. He's obviously having a hard time with this.]

[resurrectinto]

Dammit. She didn't really have any... I guess if she's not sick...

Nadia's gone again, Crowe. Better you hear it from me than find out for yourself.

[perfektsymmetry]

[There's a long pause followed by a light sigh.

Quietly:]

...I-I see. Let's... let's just hope she's gone home, eh?

[resurrectinto]

[The tone of her voice is kind of scarily resolute.] She's gone home. I refuse to believe anything else.

He took my kidney, but I signed the paperwork for it, so it's alright.

[resurrectinto]

Well you sound pretty alright about it.

[rogue_pineapple]

I got back the power to cast illusions. Not having them was like missing an arm, so you could say I got an arm back for a kidney.

Not a bad deal. I wasn't using the kidney.

[resurrectinto]

And I could have gotten any one of my elements back, but losing a vital part of myself hardly seems like a fair trade.

But I suppose to each their own.

[a_gentle_boy]

. . . I don't think there is. Mr. Netherlands was gone for more than a week and came back anyway.

Who is it?

[resurrectinto]

Yeah, which is why I'm asking. You never know, right?

My sister.

[a_gentle_boy]

Miss Nadia? Oh, no . . . I-I'm sorry.

[resurrectinto]

S'fine. If it means she's gone home, then it's okay, right?
