Who: Hermione Granger and you!
Broadcast: Fleetwide
Action: Vanquish
When: Today!

[ The feed starts out with Hermione sitting on her bed, looking absolutely miserable. It's obvious that she hasn't slept, not really, and when she speaks her voice is quiet and, more than anything, sad. ]

Cisco isn't here anymore. [ She's lost people before, but she never gets used to it. It's never fair, and it's not right. It's not right that you get to be this close to people and then they get taken away from you. ] I don't think he's the only one that's gone this time, but it's - I don't think it's my place to talk about anyone else.

[ She's doing this because Cisco was her partner, after all. Her boyfriend. She'd been so happy.

I'm not sure what's left in his lab, but - I didn't want to touch anything. I'm sorry for anyone that knew him, but... He's probably happier at home, so it's okay in the end.

[ The feed cuts off, abruptly, because she didn't want to think about it anymore - it was easier to just turn it off and put the device to one side and pretend for a little while. ]

It is. I don't have notes to leave. I never have. [But she told him every day. Maybe she should make some for the others though. She's not alone just because Winn is gone.]

Persisting is my specialty. Keep walking. [Something a different Allen Walker told her once.]

I honestly didn't think about it, but now... [ Now she thinks that, maybe, she ought to try and pen some of her own letters, just in case. She knows how sad it is to be left behind, now, and...

At least they have people that understand one another. ] Keep walking. I think I can do that.

I might too. [But not now. Not yet. It's too fresh and painful. Then again taking to the ones she'd be leaving behind might remind her just how many people she still has here who care about her and who she cares about.]

Good luck with everything.

You too. If you ever need someone to talk to I'm here, okay?

Same for you. Maybe even in voice or video or person one of these days. [Just not yet.]
