[ she doesn't think he needs more than two things. she is still trying to figure out what's wrong. that would be so funny during thoughtshare.... if only!!!!! ]

No, of course not. It could have been only Nadia, and I would have understood. Didn't I tell you your dedication to both your sister and your students was what made you beautiful when we first met?

[ one of their first conversations. ]

[faithkept]

[IF ONLY... He would happily tell her about what an evil insane bad satanic creature Scien is.]

Ah—it feels like it was such a long time ago, somehow... But I do recall. I'm glad, then... I assume your reasons for wishing to return are also the same as they were, and that you're still going to make the same choice?

[florescences]

[ he should do it in our next inevitable thread this week.

there's a beat. ]

Yes. I shouldn't waver from it.

[faithkept]

[grips you. okay consider it done.]

—Shouldn't?

[A little curious, since the wording and that brief pause makes it seem as though she may have considered otherwise.]

[florescences]

[ thank you aki love to see insanity on the daily

she smiles. ]

Yeah. I shouldn't. [ ... ] I won't. It'll be okay.

[faithkept]

[u know i am here to deliver]

...Is there something that you'd rather do instead, though?

[florescences]

It's not a rather. It's not a matter of want. It's only a matter of doing, now that we're near the end.

[faithkept]

[His head cants a little to the side.]

Well. You do suit decisive action.

[florescences]

[ she flashes a peace sign. ]

I do, don't I? That's how Elysia should be.

[faithkept]

[Uruha is here...]

I hope that it's how you would like to be, as well, and not just what you think you ought to be.

[florescences]

[ is uruha the originator of the peace sign to lucas.... ]

Of course it is. I will always and only ever be Elysia.

[faithkept]

[HE DOESN'T KNOW ANYONE ELSE WHO USES IT.]

I suppose that's very true.

[florescences]

[ SHE IS RIGHT HERE. ]

I couldn't stand to betray myself like that.

[faithkept]

[Maybe so........]

I can't imagine that would would. [But this is edging too much into thinking about clones territory so he's running.]

In any case - why don't you tell me a bit about what you've been doing over here?

[florescences]

[ would would.....

coward!! but that's fine... she'll let it go for now. ]

I don't know if I'd say I've been doing overly much. It's nothing different than what I've been doing on the other side. I've been learning about the other angels and writing.

[ it's a lot of letter writing. ]

[faithkept]

[you are merciless]

Ah, yes... I'd imagine you get a lot of them.

[ara your fucking letters]

I suppose it's better this way, though. To be able to have time to write letters and rest a bit, especially after all everyone on this side has been through.

[florescences]

I appreciate every letter I receive. [ sincerely! ] I want to write more people sometimes, but even here, the time gets away from me.

[ because i spend over two hours writing letters and then i'm like that's enough ]

Maybe... I do like to be able to do more, but I'm also used to waiting for others to find a way.

[faithkept]

[YOU JUST LIKE ABSOLUTELY NOT fair and valid rip to the plentiful long letter writers elysia and yves.]

I'd think it would actually be a bit easier to lose track of the time over here than over there, so that makes sense...

[But he nods at that, because he gets it, too.]

Unfortunately, it feels as though there's a great deal of waiting for others here.

[florescences]

We don't have to move by as regimented a structure as the other side... for better or worse.

[ it makes things easier to deal with in some ways, but also... she knows it makes others feel as there's not as much autonomy or ways to help. ]

At least I've become good at that, too.

[ waiting, she means. ]

[faithkept]

[There's just a little nod at that. He will hate not having as much autonomy or ways to help even though i aki am crying in joy over being able to sleep through one whole trial]

For better and for worse, I suppose... [But yeah! She sure has, huh!] ...Does waiting ever become easier, though?

[florescences]

[ only one whole trial and then endgame ]

Easier? It depends on how you view it. Eventually, it becomes part of your everyday, and whether that means it's easier or not is up to you.

[faithkept]

[coughs blood my naps

He thinks that if it were him, it would probably not get easier. But he wouldn't judge anyone for either of their reactions to an endless wait.]

I suppose there are some things that don't ever become easier, no matter how much of it you experience... But adjusting is something that people often do surprisingly well.

[florescences]

[ you may nap today.

waiting had become elysia's normal. easy or difficult is not how she'd describe it. it just is. ]

Adjusting... That's it perfectly. You're taking the words right out of my mind. This is why I like you so much, Lucas.

[faithkept]

[clears some of my tags before going back to sleep not the 4am party aftermath

There's a light and chiming laugh at that, though.]

You're going to make me blush if you keep complimenting me so kindly. I'm glad if what I say can resonate, though.

[florescences]

[ you all were just up.... for some reason.... it's normal for you but everyone else. ]

That means I'll have to keep complimenting you. You're so cute when you're flustered.
