* appears to just be spacing out, but snaps out of it and glances at the voice. *

Ah--hey, you're back.

[appears to be completely exhausted]

How are you doing? You're alright?

[tothelight]

* pushing himself off the bed and getting on his feet *

I should be asking you that.

[time_andagain.insanejournal.com]

I'm fine, just tired.

[tothelight]

* ...jiiiiii :/a *

You taken your memory yet?

[time_andagain.insanejournal.com]

[hesitating]

...Yes, I did. Did you take yours?

[tothelight]

* nods, smiling weakly. *

How'd it go for you?

[time_andagain.insanejournal.com]

[sees that face]

Is everything really okay, Claude?

[tothelight]

...it wasn't really a happy memory, but it's fine.

[time_andagain.insanejournal.com]

I see. I'm sorry.

[tothelight]

Hey, don't worry about it. I learn stuff about my old self from these, too.

* sitting on the edge of the bed, resting his elbows on his thighs *

I learned how we move between worlds.

[tothelight]

....That doesn't sound too bad.

[time_andagain.insanejournal.com]

Mm. Sorry, I'm pretty tired. If you don't need anything, I'm going to go to bed now.

[tothelight]

Yeah, you should get some rest. Sorry for keeping you up.

...Claude? What is it?

[tothelight]

We've got time to talk tomorrow. It's been a long day. Go on.

[time_andagain.insanejournal.com]

[hesitating]

Are you sure? I don't mind.

[tothelight]

... *shakes his head*

I know you don't, but it can wait.

[time_andagain.insanejournal.com]
