... ugh.

[Ellie sounds... out of it. Not herself. Distracted, like she's been hit a few too many times in the head, or is somehow drugged up. She's finding her way but she's slow, like she's having to think about every word before she says it.]

So. Question -- how many of you guys have been in two places at once?

I think I was back in my... my world. For a while.

But I was here, too.

Anybody?

[tonsofpun]

Well, since we've still gotta deal with Surt...

[justacough]

Ah yes, the scorched lover.

[Yes, she's aware of the word she used.]

All the more reason to stay.

[tonsofpun]

[Ellie snorts through her nose.]

Be careful. Okay?

[justacough]

The same to you, Ellie.

And Ellie, one more thing, if you would please?

[tonsofpun]

Yeah, what's up?

[justacough]

Try to make sure you come back in one piece.

[tonsofpun]

I'll give it my best shot.

[justacough]

That's all I ask.

Desmond is going as well... [She closes her eyes, contemplating that.]

Don't let him do anything stupidly heroic?

[tonsofpun]

Kinda comes standard with the Sigyn idiots, Satine. Sorry.

[justacough]

Don't I know it.

It's what makes them frustratingly endearing.

Well, remind him how cross I will be if he does, that might help a bit.

[tonsofpun]

You got it.

[Says the Sigyn idiot.]

[justacough]

Now then, when will you come by for your nails, Ellie?

[tonsofpun]

Is later tonight okay? I've got to... talk to a couple of people first.

[justacough]

Alright. [She'll give Desmond his sendoff after Ellie leaves.] Later tonight.

Until then, Ellie.
