To those concerned, I have returned relatively intact and fine.

If I discuss it with you, I discuss it with you.

If I don't, you don't want to pressure me.

..

However, most of you don't want to be around me right now. I'm fucking drinking myself into a healthy oblivion, please and thanks.

And Li? In regards to our world, unless it's a customer, I don't want to be bothered for a while.

It is good to hear from you, I hope you had rested better then I had. I can say the floor provided very little support, and with my flatmate's horrid little terrier deciding that my clothes make a good chew boy.

[im2sexy4mysnark.livejournal.com]

I managed to teleport back to my place and the boy who works for me helped me inside.

If you could call it rest, in a sense, I pretty much was in a dreamless unconsciousness.

[foresight2020.livejournal.com]

I'm relieved that you made it back in one piece.

Next time, leave a note before you go.

[im2sexy4mysnark.livejournal.com]

As am I.

I'll be sure to leave a note the next time I'm abducted, darling. It'd be the considerate thing to do, after all.

[foresight2020.livejournal.com]

Abducted.

(The implied question here is, "Whose ass am I to kick?")

[im2sexy4mysnark.livejournal.com]

Mm. Yes. Abducted. An entire section of the Nexus more or less sealed itself off in a pocket universe, cutting me off from the outside of it.

This implies her shop, as well.

I couldn't power my way out of it, or I'd risk it collapsing.

As for the implied question, she doesn't miss it, Banded together with a few of the others, and managed to beat the fellow responsible for it, which allowed us to find a way to freedom.

Although she's flattered. He's not her Clow, but yet he's willing to defend her.

[foresight2020.livejournal.com]

Mm. Well, I'm glad you're back safe.

He has no idea what else to say. It sounds as if there should be more, but he can't think of anything. Except-

If you don't mind my asking, who was the gentleman responsible?

The word 'gentleman' is clearly used in a sarcastic manner here. Clow won't do anything to him - he just wants to know.

[im2sexy4mysnark.livejournal.com]

I'm glad I'm back as well. Believe me, there was a point I was worried I wouldn't

It was in the Sloth area, where the rain of it beat her mood down, drained her of her energy...

Made her want to give up even then, more than ever.

A man named Zebediah Killgrave.

He should already know she doesn't want him to do anything to Killgrave anyway.

He'll get his through karmic retribution, after all.

As everything has its price.

[foresight2020.livejournal.com]

But you did.

Unsaid is the implication that you are a stronger person for it and blah blah. Also unsaid is the fact that he understands. He may have been in a similar fix himself once or twice, albeit when he was younger.

Interesting name. I shall have to look him up.

Odd thing about Clow: without that second sentence there, it might have meant that he intended to possibly do something to the man. The second part simply expresses an intent to stalk dear Zebediah, not harm him at all.

[im2sexy4mysnark.livejournal.com]

Indeed.

Man, these two imply a lot at each other through text, don't they? Because there's more to this, as well. She's aware she's a stronger person for it and all that blah-blahing. Probably why she was 'fated to be', 'fated to see', as the Twins put it for young Li.

An interesting, if twisted little man.

Which also means: Keep your distance, darling.

And if he can ever be found for that matter. For all Alta knows (and she's not really bothering to look, as she doesn't particularly care at this point), the man's dead by now.

The following is hand-entered by messenger in the nearest terminal to the Aristan door. Because the Aristans still don't think they want to give PINpoints another try.

Ms. Altalita Bastion:

The Aristan government is relieved to hear that you are as well as can be expected under the circumstances, and would like to extend its thanks for your role in the safe return of one of its citizens.

[im2sexy4mysnark.livejournal.com]

Speaking of, is he doing alright as well?

[aureliaofarista.livejournal.com]

He is reasonably well and being observed by physicians for now, thank you. Ours, rather than Nexus ones.

There's some debate about that going on between Her Ladyship and the General, but nothing the boy typing wants to bother Ms. Bastion about.
