Oh.

[Good going there, Zell. He's conflicted. On one hand, it's good the guy is gone so Stephanie isn't hurt. But she now doesn't have the chance, however futile it may be, to ever see if things can be right.

He also remembers the who conversation about Angel and her dad with both Stephanie and Angel. It's complicated is right.]

Frickin' hell, Steph. I'm sorry. [He reaches to place a hand on her shoulder.]

[spoileralert]

Me too.

[ She manages a weak smile and reaches up to squeeze his hand, blushing. Part of it is because they're holding hands, but a lot of it is because she still hasn't figured out how to feel about all this. ]

Sorry, I didn't mean to get so... grim.

[swatsflies]

[He's assuming the blushing is because she thinks she made things awkward.]

We're stuck here of all places. So, grim is expected.

[And now for new topic to keep from thinking about other grim things that happened.]

How long have you been traveling with Rhys and Angel?

[spoileralert]

[ She gives his hand another little squeeze before letting it go. ]

Just since the meeting. I wanted to stay close to Angel, just in case... [ In case her dad tried anything that Rhys couldn't be bothered to prevent. ] Just in case.

[swatsflies]

[This he actually gets.]

In case her dad comes looking for her? I still can't believe he did all of that.

[Looking over to Angel and Rhys. Sorry, he's pretty fucking obvious about when he's talking about people.]

I'm glad they seem to be doing better. [At least he hopes so.]

[spoileralert]

[ She would say it isn't the first time, but she doesn't really trust him not to shout that across the room. ]

"Better" isn't really how I'd describe it. More like "the same, but less injured".

[swatsflies]

[This is why it's best to talk to him about stuff on the network.]

Oh. Well, they have Dumpy back. [So he was useful, right?]

How have you been?

[spoileralert]

I've been okay. Flickering in and out about, but otherwise no complaints. You?

[swatsflies]

Were you hit with that one? The admin said it was in our heads.

[Maybe. He looks over to where Kain is, but he seems to be in the other room. Then the conversation turns to how Zell is doing. Shoulders slump just a little bit] I've been... getting better. We're picking up our friend from the hospital.

[spoileralert]

[ She shrugs. She's still not 100% convinced this isn't ALL in their heads. ]

Jim, right? I'm glad he's okay. I mean, relatively. Not dead, anyway.

[ Wow she is so great at this ]

[swatsflies]

[His head is a mess thanks to GFs eating his memories, but it's not that bad of a mess.]

Yeah, Jim. [He...can't really say if he's okay.]

He sounds like he's doing better. [At least compared to when they first heard from him in the morning.] He's the first to actually come back... [Which is really depressing to say out loud.]

[spoileralert]

Yeah, that's-- [ SUPER DEPRESSING. ]

I'm sorry.

[ Ugh she is so lame. ]
