Believe me, the feeling's mutual. It's been...well. It's harder on you, I think, and I'm sorry for that. There's so much I wish I could do to make things even a little easier in this situation.

[undread]

You've been doing a lot, writing so many letters to everyone. It's so kind of you.

I suppose I was a little worried that you wanted me to come over there...

[residentflorist]

I'm sure you'd do the same if the situations were reversed, right? Seems like the kind of thing that'd happen. [does she mean writing letters, or the contents? hard to say but she doesn't quite clarify either.]

[undread]

Well. If the situation was reversed, I'd want to know you're safe.

[residentflorist]

[hm...]

Are you being safe, Laudna? How are things over here? There's only so much we actually know, and after last weekend...

[with. kate especially.]

[undread]

Last weekend was difficult. I think all of us are on our last legs, but...

[a smile.]

Most of us are the type who are good at continuing to fight to the bitter end.

[a ghost hand reaches out to touch her shoulder reassuringly, but of course it passes through and leaves behind a chilly touch.]

That's true. I have noticed that. But I can still worry about all of you burning out before we can reach the end. Even if it's not by choice.

[undread]

I won't burn out.

[she can promise that much.]

I just hope Gale won't.

[residentflorist]

Good. As long as you can stay strong and do what needs to be done...I trust you. [lol.]

Are you worried about him? I know the last few weeks have been hard on him and Lavi both for different reasons.
