[ there's a moment during the hug where she thinks, it's been so long, and i hardly got to know her to begin with... but she forces it aside in favor of-- ]
Mmhm. I wrote back to Alphinaud and asked him to show you the message I wrote back for you - did he pass that on? That and the last paragraph of the letter was for all of you in the dorm.
[she pats her back and tries not to think about how mabel would have ended up in daycare because yikes, no one wants the mental image of a dead thirteen year old.]
...it's okay. This is almost over - we're going to get off this campus entirely and go back home.
I mean, not necessarily? Claude shared the information I gave him about the train, right? If there are stops in each of our worlds, that means they're connected somehow.
I mean, I guess we won't be able to know for sure until we see it, but I can't see why it'd just be one way. We had to get here somehow, right? So the fact that we're able to go back kind of implies that it's two-way.
Normally I can fly and I've got super-strength, but... apparently I haven't gotten that back yet! So it's mainly just that my physical abilities are enhanced. I'm stronger - though not as strong as I would be with that power - and faster, and more sturdy.
I can also normally conjure up illusions with my flute? ...but that's not working, either. If I had vouchers, I'd buy it back.

...d-did you use your cool costume powers thingy to help?
no subject
But I can use this once a day, so you better believe I'm gonna handle it if it turns out we need to fight anything.

Yeah, of course! We should all get one or two good punches in. We deserve that much after all the crap it put us through.

[ ...then a moment later, another big ol' hug. ]
...I missed you.
no subject
...aww, Mabel. I missed you too.
no subject
...you got my letters, right?
no subject
no subject
...uh-huh. Last night.
Did you ask Claude to join Summer...?
no subject
[she pats her back. there there.
meanwhile, there's a stray thought - what the hell went on while I was gone...?]
No, I didn't. I think he did that on his own. Has it been okay, with him there...?
no subject
He's been okay though. I wasn't there the first week he was in Summer, but it's not like he did anything bad this week or anything.

Well...as long as I get to see my friends again and I never have to deal with this place again, that sounds fine!
no subject
No one's going to have to deal with this place ever again. I'm going to set fire to every building here before we get on the train.

[im crying lila please stop encouraging the thirteen year old to commit arson]
no subject
So--what kind of cool superhero stuff can you do?!

no subject
All I've got is my grappling hook and this anti-sad power nobody wants me using anymore.
I wish I could've bought something else too, but I hardly have any vouchers left...
