Hoo, Luceti. You one and only [...sorry Azusa. This actually hurts way less than she thought it would, which makes her smile even broader.] warrens gal here.

[She's sitting atop a building in the setting sun. The journal is aimed at her side as he's sitting here on the ledge. In her hand she is spinning a tooth - the one she's holding is somewhat smaller than her forearm, so about the size of a typical dagger.]

In a bit've a broil. Got this tooth, and fig I oughta do something with it. Got some who told me to give it to meds, but don't wanna nuke it. Got any other thinks? Poss I won't get a thing, but might as well put 'em on the Grid.

[...Hah]

...Glad I got to go home. [A little contented sigh. She didn't get to stay, but even a day now that she can remember it makes all the difference in the world.]

It was home.

[It was a completely overwhelming joy] Where I oughta be.

[accepted]

Some people here don't seem to like their homes though because there's lots of war and stuff like that. I'm guessing you liked it then.

[Saying home differently still doesn't tell him much.]

[Voice]

[makeitquick]

Loved. [Fiercely] Look. I don't care what others are gonna say or think. Don't care if my home's an Aquahog's crack compared to even this rutting place. It's home. Home.

My bonds, my heart, my life, my calling, my everything is in Haddyn.

[accepted]

[See, now he understands that she loved being able to go home. That made a whole lot more sense to him.]

Okay, loved. Guess you're just more attached to your home than some of the people I've met.

[Voice]

[makeitquick]

Yeah, guess.

[Voice]

[accepted]

... Okay, really really attached because your home is your bonds, heart, life and everything else. I don't guess I know, there, how's that?

[Voice]

[makeitquick]

...That's fair.

[Voice]

[accepted]

Great, glad I remembered all that. Bonds, life, calling... Uhh, there was more.

[Already forgot most of that little speech.]

[Voice]

[makeitquick]

There was, but as long as you're not slacking on it, it's fine.

[Voice]

[accepted]

Yeah I think you got your message across clear enough for me to get what you meant, more or less... Heart! That was it, missed out heart.

[Voice]

[makeitquick]

What I mean's home's real important to me. I was glad to go.

[Voice]

[accepted]

Well I get that now, you could have just said that in the first place though. Maybe something will happen and you'll be able to go back again. ... Hopefully next time Azusa won't be all messed up though.

[Voice]

[makeitquick]

...I kinda thought she was fun like that, actually.

[Voice]

[accepted]

Maybe to you, I couldn't understand a word she was saying half the time.
