*Nods*
You're right, I'm sorry. She did a very brave thing. I don't think she'll tell you what it took to work up the nerve in the first place, but I expect her to be surprised that she ever gained consciousness again.

@Meta

*Takes it all in for a moment*
That all sounds right, based on the extent of what I know. And I respect that too much to ever ask her to tell me more.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Audacious>

She was trying to help you. That was hard for her.

@Meta

She didn’t just try. But yeah, it took a lot of courage to step up and face her past like that.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Yatagarasu>

I would love to listen. Please do.

<Snipped quote by Audacious>

If you don't mind me asking, I can only imagine it was a pretty bad sight? I noticed the cloth.

@Meta

Artemis’s condition? It’s rough, to say the least…

*To the others*

Hopefully she's only experiencing shock. I'll keep an eye on her as we wait.

*Keeps my fingers against your neck to monitor your pulse as time goes by*

@Malevocholy

*Closes my eyes for a moment*
I mean… Yeah, I understand why.

<Snipped quote by Audacious>

He is our dad after all. He's the best at everything to me.

@Meta

You know what? Completely fair, and correct.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Audacious>

*My mouth dimples at the joke*
You're in very good hands. Dad is the best there is, and Stella's been helping him for many years now. She's become a little expert in her own right.

@Meta

She was saying things along those lines, yeah. Not an… Insulated opinion, I see.

Alright, I'm going to have the active part of the room separated from the rest, so everybody who isn't operating doesn't have to experience the next part with their senses.

*Walks over to a keypad and presses some of the buttons, causing a large wall to lower slightly above the middle of the room*

I'll lower that fully once everyone's in place. Stella, are you okay with continuing to help? You've done great so far, but I don't want to make you keep working if you don't want to.

@Yatagarasu

*Scurries lackadaisically under the wall to the opposite end of the room*

*Smiles and takes a chair to sit*
I'll be as unobtrusive as I can be.

@Meta

Welcome to the club, there. We can help each other to try maximize how not in the way we are.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Audacious>

*Curtsies*
It's my pleasure to help you. If it's okay with everyone, I would certainly like to stay and keep you company.

@Meta

I don’t mind if no one else does. We’re the intruders anyway.

<Snipped quote by Audacious>

It is an unfortunate, immovable fact from existence. Death is all around us, the only thing we can do is come to terms with it.

@souleaterfan320

I-
*Hesitates and changes course*
You are right about that.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Audacious>

I... know how you feel, somewhat. At least with yours, you are justified. With mine.... I lost everyone I knew in mere seconds. It happened so fast, and though it was quite litteraly eons ago... I still remember it clear as day.

@souleaterfan320

I’m sorry you had to experience tragedy like that. I wish no one had to. Ever, nor ever again.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Audacious>

Sometimes a painful truth is better than a hopeful unknown. I think so, anyway.

@Meta

It’s definitely better than a false hope. Thank you again, Miss Dawn.
