[Video] [Originating from Trionic Temple]

 [The feed opens to show everyone's favourite crow girl, who...in all honesty has been in better spirits. In fact, she's nothing like how she usually is.  Instead of bouncing around, she's taken to remaining curled in a beanbag chair in her room, holding the link as if it could disappear at any moment.  Her eyes are red and puffy, her cheeks are tear streaked, it's...it's a mess.  When she realizes the feed is on, those eyes harden for a moment.]

I want to see everyone right now. Bad things happen when people leave.

[She's rather short on words right now.]

Soundwave...I need to see you. Please.

[There's a slight squeeze as she holds on tighter, hiccuping slightly.

She's been crying, okay.]

Heh...you think so...?

[Action]

[deusexraf]

...sure.

[he's not used to being the cheering up one, but he can at least try. that's a small smile if nothing else, and at least it's honest.]

My papa...sometimes he'd say that if things couldn't get much worse, they'd have to get better sooner or later.

[so that counts, right?]

[Action]

[littlecrowgirl]

That's...that's true...

[And usually she's the one cheering up. It's kind of weird and topsy turvy.]

We can only go up, right?

[Action]

[deusexraf]

Mhm. Besides...at least we don't have to worry about homework.

[this is his attempt at a joke...]

[You know, it helped. She smiles, closing her eyes a bit.]

Mr. Ratchet doesn't see it that way. He seems like an old school teacher.

He's not a bad one. He can get a little excited at times, and he doesn't know as much as he thinks he does about Earth, but...

[what can he say?]

He's like family, now.

[Action]

[littlecrowgirl]

I know that feeling...

[She gives him a soft squeeze, at least smiling a bit now.]

I have a few bots who are like that.

[heh. he leans in to her, a little bit]

So as long as we have them...

[and, well. each other.]
