Hey there, stranger. Don't think I gotta explain the situation: you called, I didn't pick up. Leave me a message and maybe I'll get back to you.
[ Audio / Video / Text ]
text; un: odeorain - sent early in the morning on the 28th;
Tell me you're still well enough to use this damned thing, I need to talk to you.
no subject
But yeah, well enough. What do you want?
[ He doubts she's just messaging him to check in. ]
no subject
It's Angela. I don't know if she made it public knowledge that she was ill, but she was. It won; she's dead. I imagine she'd want you to know.
[ There is clearly a reason she was never assigned to be the one to deliver these kinds of things to grieving widows. ]
no subject
And it makes sense. It makes too much damned sense. ]
Were you there?
no subject
Yes.

With Moira though… strangely enough, it calls for an honesty he’s not sure what to do with. Bland condolences won’t do it. But in his own grief, he can’t bring himself to lash out at her either. At least not without proof that she’d had some hand in the way things had gone.
Which he will look for, after. But he can reign in judgment until then. ]
She’s coming back. People do that here.
[ But that’s a cold comfort, and he knows it. ]
Least she wasn’t alone.

[ It sounds so factual, like she's looking at observational information and not owning up to be afraid that she's lost her for good. In her right state of mind, she'd see it as illogical conclusion jumping, but she's far from that. ]
Do you really think that that makes it easier? Not being alone, I mean.
no subject
[ Not that it's something he's thought a lot about: dying alone. ]
And like it or not, this place has rules. She'll be back. Then we'll deal with the rest.
[ He's not half as confident as he might come across, but Jesse writes it out for his own sake much as for Moira's. Seeing it on a screen helps. Makes it feel like a better possibility. Gives him something to do with his hands. ]

I used to think so. This virus has made me question a number of things about this place. I suppose we'll see who's right.
no subject
And I guess we will. No offense, but I'm hoping I'm right about this one.
no subject
And for once, so am I.
