A little.

I'm... working out what to make of everything.

[mygod]

[ she holds her hand out. ]

Want to go over it with me?

[cumulative]

[he takes hold of her hand.]

I do.

...Lavi's theory is that Kanda's ability to heal himself has been suppressed, but that the consequences of that ability haven't been. That it's those consequences that we were seeing, without any beneficial effect to show for them.

Do you think that it could really work that way?

[mygod]

[ she scratches the back of her head with her free hand. ]

I don't really know much about Kanda's situation back home. He doesn't speak with me much.

[cumulative]

Lavi said that he would ask about it, as well, so I'll... let him give more details.

[it's not really mathis's place to, he thinks, when lavi is closer.]

But when he brought up that theory, I wondered about it mostly because... I'm still alive.

[local little guy doesnt know that sometimes you cannot just die a single day into a game]

[mygod]

[ she will nod at the first thing, and won't pry further.

the second one though, ]

Back home, how long would you normally last?

[cumulative]

I actually don't know for certain...

Jean was updating my memories every night, but even with that, I was unstable. If he needed to do it that frequently, then... likely a day or so.

[mygod]

[ hmmm. she's just staring at him intently. ]

You know, I am an expert in genetic research. Although, I guess the equipment we have here isn't really the best...

[cumulative]

You are?!

[PESTIIII]

Scien says that he's fixed me before, in his timeline, but...

[mygod]

[ pestilence every time someone implies the other ones are the smart ones: fuck you i graduate college as a teenager ]

We can't really promise anything outright or quickly, since we're lacking a lot of what we usually work with. But we can try.

[cumulative]

[he thinks she's smart HE JUST DIDN'T KNOW THAT WAS HER FIELD helppp]

If you would, then... I'll still provide whatever assistance I can. I know that Scien told me to just be patient, last time.

[mygod]

I think you already have enough to worry about with what's going on here, to also have to worry about that.

[ murder is already stressful without the added weight of your EXISTENCE ]

I can discuss it with him.

[cumulative]

[pausing for a second...]

Oh, you've probably been asked about things like that already since he was researching genetic disorders...

[and if scien hasn't said anything then ~oops~]

[mygod]

Hehe, well, we asked each other what sort of fields we all work in... The four of us are pretty similar in that way.

It's probably part of the reason we got along.

[cumulative]

Right... it's only been a few weeks, but it still almost feels strange to hear you say the four of you.

[sweet furry we knew you for one whole week of the time we were here,]

[mygod]

Ah.

Sorry, bad habit. We knew Death for longer than that...

[cumulative]

...is it strange, being here without him?

[mygod]

... we were all prepared for potentially dying, so that part wasn't really a surprise.

But it's always a bit odd passing by his room now.
