I literally just slept for like a week.

[ Jade's voice is a little hoarse, her hair wet from a shower, and she still seems vaguely sleepy. ]

Did I miss anything exciting? Any more giant attacks? -- how is everyone, anyway? Yes, hi, even people I don't know yet, how are you doing?

[ FILTERED TO ROXY: ]

Hey! I met Callie! At home, I mean.

I just wanted to check. [Plus, what was happening sounded ... terrible.]

I wouldn't want that to happen to you. Obviously.

[ She half-smiles at him, shrugging once, and clearly just pushing it aside. ]

Wouldn't be the first time.

That you died...?

Yup! I've died, um, four times, if you count the two deaths here, but I don't really count any of them. It's kind of like what I told Ellie a while back - dying is scary because usually when it happens, you're just... gone. You don't exist anymore. Clearly I still exist, right? From my perspective, it's just kinda like I've been knocked out cold four times, haha.

I think death's a little more complicated than that.

[ She fixes him with a half-smile. ]

Not for me.

Well, I guess if you insist.
