... 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?

I mean, we're best friends, so.
[Not counting Riley, sorry Riley.]

[That would make sense!]
...It wasn't something bad, was it? She's okay?
[The details don't worry her so much as knowing the results, honestly. It sounds like it could be something scary...]
[Video]
[Whether she's okay is another matter.]
Re: [Video]
...Sometimes that's all you can do.
[She can understand that much.]
[Video]
[Ellie smiles, but it looks like it belongs on someone far older. It's too tired. Hell, she's too tired.]
Re: [Video]
[That's... about the best she could do. And she almost didn't make it, if she hadn't been found...]
...Either way, I hope things go well. For the both of you, in your worlds. O-or if they aren't... that it gets better.
[Video]
Don't worry too much, okay? We'll figure it out.
[Video]
Every day.
...Are things easier in Asgard, at least? [Even though that in of itself isn't exactly a pleasant thought, considering they're in the middle of a war, but...
It could grant them some reprieve, at the bare minimum...]
[Video]
Re: [Video]
I'm glad to hear that. Even if you won't remember it...
It's nice. While it lasts.
[Video]
[Video]
[Even though it's hard sometimes, knowing that all her experiences here will be forgotten eventually...]
Things aren't really bad where I'm from, but... I learned a lot of things here that I don't think I'll ever get to once I go back.
[Video]
Remembering is weird, because it's like waking up all over again. I'm different.
Re: [Video]
I wish... I could take those memories home, too. If I did, maybe I could help people there, too...
[If she could just remember all about Asgard's magic, never needing sacrifices like the type her own world uses...
Maybe, just maybe, she could help find a magic that truly didn't require sacrifices.]
[Video]
[Maybe others' lives are different from her own. Ellie has felt powerless, often, but never like there wasn't something she could do.]
[Video]
...They have a lot of troubles that I don't know how to help. Not when I'm there.
[Video]
Besides, you can't worry about what you can't do.
[Video]
[She wants to do something for her friends, at the very least.]
...I'm sorry. I shouldn't complain, but... they all looked out for me so much, I--
I want to be able to do something in return, too.
[Video]
[Video]
[Her tone is too serious to be an exaggeration - or at least, not a knowing one.]
[Video]
I bet you're good at -- listening when someone needs to talk.
[Video]
[Video]
Sometimes that's the thing people need more than anything.
[Video]
E-even though I'm not doing anything...?
[At least, that's how she sees it.]
