Melody No. 13 ~ An anticlimactic return.

[thelittlecanary]

I-it's snowing outside!! [ A small pause as she returns to her bedside to snatch up a blanket and wrap it around herself. ] Last I remember, it wasn't this cold...

[ She's back at the window now, marveling at the deceptively cheery sight that greets her eyes. ] ...How long was I gone for? Zidane, Jecht, Dias, Hachibe... [ And she's about to go check

Garnet. ( there's a sigh on his end. ) I'm glad you're back.

[thelittlecanary]

Glad to be back, Hope. [ It's true. Regardless of what misery they're all bound to face sooner or later, it seems a bit more bearable knowing they'll face it together. ] Have you been well?...It's been a while since we last spoke.

[avengesthesky]

Yeah, I've been fine! ( he tries not to think about the last time they spoke, when he found out she had been killed in one of those attacks by the hazmats. instead, he tries to focus on better news. ) Oh, um, something good did happen; I got Alexander back.

[stephen_owling]

Glad to see you're alright, Garnet.

[thelittlecanary]

It's good to hear from you too, Nagi. How has everything been?

[stephen_owling]

Things have been quiet since Thanksgiving. One wonders what Christmas will bring...

[thelittlecanary]

...No matter what happens, we'll all survive it together.

[Dias had been worried about Garnet, so it's a relief to hear her voice. And she missed his getting murdered by Albedo, which is further relief...although it might be awkward to explain how his hair's already grown out so fast.] ...I'm still here. You alright, Garnet?

[thelittlecanary]

Dias!! Yes, I feel fine... [ W-well, that's a bit of a lie. ]

...Jecht is gone, but it's for the best that he is.

[the_bloody_road]

I'm sorry.

[thelittlecanary]

It'll be alright. He had quite a fight to finish back in his world... [ And here's where she falters into silence. ]

...How have you been since - [ you sucked my blood.

More silence on her end.

THEN, FINALLY: ] I want to see you.

[Making a snow bear, while her own regained teddy bear sits nearby]

[thelittlecanary]

[ Spots the ongoing shenanigans from her bedroom window and hurriedly bundles up in winter clothes that totally weren't hanging in her closet before so she can go join her not!sis outside. ] Pamela! What are you up to?

[no_bullying]

Making a snow bear, of course!
