[winces like he was hit anyway, but the hug tightens further]

I'm sorry too.

[thornwhip]

[all her tears. because even though being here means he died, she can't help but feel happy that he's with her. and she feels horrible for thinking that.]

[not going to pull back from this hug anytime soon.]

[pyxising]

[yeah, this hug isn't ending for a while]

[thornwhip]

[never ever. quietly]

Ikki?

[pyxising]

. . . mm?

[thornwhip]

Even with all that's happened... I'm just happy to get to see you again.

[pyxising]

[. . . aaaaa hugs her tight again ;;]

M-Me too. I didn't think—i-it's been almost a year. Since I last saw you, so.

[ . . . ffff words]

[thornwhip]

[yeesss hugs wait WHAT]

A year - you were in that place for that long?!

[pyxising]

[shrugs kind of helplessly]

[thornwhip]

Why did you even go there in the first place? [because he went willingly right??]

[pyxising]

. . . [shakes his head]

Later. I'll tell you later.

[thornwhip]

[a little surprised but] ...Alright.

[pyxising]

[lets up his tight hold on her, at least, but he only frees one hand to rub at his eyes]

There's - more of us here. From home.

[thornwhip]

[oh no oh noooo] ...Who else?

[pyxising]

Kazu, Yayoi, the sharks . . . two sets of 'em.

[thornwhip]

[timewarps she saw akito and heard about the other but, shrinks a little.] I thought they were okay. I heard that they were.

[pyxising]

Sabra. And another place - Aather.

[thornwhip]

...Then they didn't get to go home either?

[pyxising]

[shakes his head]

[thornwhip]

[biting lip. not going to crrry] How are they doing?

[pyxising]

. . . fine, I guess. As well as can be expected.

[thornwhip]

...I'm glad. I'll have to see them - I haven't talked to Kazu-kun or Yayoi-chan in forever...

[pyxising]

. . . plenty of time to do that, now.

[thornwhip]

...You're right. I'll be around so often you'll probably get sick of me. [small smile]

[pyxising]

Got a year's worth to make up for. It won't happen for a while.
