Send Me An Angel

[therewerefifty]

Who: Makie and you
Broadcast: Fleetwide
Action: Caprine (or Marsiva if you find her hidden away)
When: Post shuffle!

[Marsiva]

[Honestly, this waking up on the Marsiva with a coughing fit thing is getting old.  Also confusing this time round, because she's pretty sure she didn't go home.  There's nothing to go home to.  When she checks the network, she finds she's been gone for months.

...where?

In light of feeling like death warmed up, she elects to pull the blankets up in the room she finds herself in and rest.  When she can hold a conversation without sounding so raw, she'll hit the network.  The last time this happened she hadn't been sure of her welcome.  This time, she knows.  People will have missed her.

Which is a good feeling.  She'll need to let them know she's all right.]

[Caprine]

[As it turns out, she's only on the Marsiva for a matter of hours, which is new.  The musical intro is what wakes her as she's dumped suddenly onto the bridge of an unfamiliar ship.  Instinctively, then, she shields her face, because the last thing she needs to do right now is inhale the confetti that comes raining down.  It would be a terrible first impression.

So... it's not the most graceful entrance she's ever done, that's for sure-- meet your new Tactical officer?  A thin, sickly woman in a kimono.  Hi. She'll do her best to introduce herself to the crew politely and then find a way to whichever room will be hers for the time being.  She'd like nothing more than to go back to sleep, but at this point it would be the height of rudeness not to alert people to her return.

So.]

I don't understand why this has happened, but it seems I've... been gone for some time.  I am sorry.  Is... everyone still here?

[That's a pretty vague question, Makie.]

Hey! Welcome back!!

I can't promise everyone is still here, but it's good to see you.

[Well, that's one at least. Makie smiles back, though a little wanly. It's hard not to in the face of that greeting.]

Likewise. You seem to have fared well. [She hopes so, anyway.]

video

[sassy_assassin]

No one's even tried to murder me lately. A kid from a parallel universe to mine showed up, so that's kind of weird.

[It's kind of sad she's been around long enough she can even follow what Sara means with that.]

Really? Do they recognise you?

voice;

[tsunergy]

[Whoa hey, familiar face.]

Ah- Makie, you remember! Is it callous to welcome you back?

voice;

[therewerefifty]

[Oho. It's a question that's a little amusing.]

Not at all. Hello again, Mikleo.

[tsunergy]

I can't speak for everyone, but Sorey and I are both still here. I'll let him know you're back, I'm sure he won't be far along.

[canofmanji]

Oh. You're back? Welcome back, I suppose. [It's not like he missed you or anything sappy like that.




But thank god someone he knows from his time is here again. He missed you so much lady who will likely kill him back home!!]

Video

[therewerefifty]

[Of course you didn't.

She peers at him. With the faintest curiosity:]

You're still here.

Video

[canofmanji]

Eh!? What? Should I have gone home? [Did he somehow miss his chance?] Why didn't I get sent home and you did! You already had a turn! [When confused; act angry instead.]

[Video]

[cajunspice]

[It was always a nice, and very welcomed, sign to see someone return and remember this place. Maybe that thought was a little selfish, to not hope someone was going back to a hopefully good home, but it was an easy one considering how many connections had been lost with the coming and goings of Fleet members.]

Makie, welcome back.

[Video]

[therewerefifty]

Thank you... Remy. [You can almost hear a ghostly 'Mr' in there, but she remembered just in time. She smiles a little.] How are your cats?

[Video]

[cajunspice]

[He chuckled at the slight hesitation, but turned it around to sound like it was about his pets.] Bein' brats, as always. Much like their owner, so I really can't complain.

Hope ya resettlin' in well.

[postocular]

Welcome back, Makie!

[therewerefifty]

Thank you, Carl.

[...she smiles ruefully.] Although to confess, I don't actually remember being gone.

[postocular]

It's okay, it'll be like you were never gone.

[unbearablynaive]

[The smile on the Vision's face has a tinge of relief to it.]

Makie. We're still here on the Twin Roses - welcome back.

video;

[therewerefifty]

Thank you. [She sees the relief and feels a touch guilty, but at least Makie recognises she didn't have much choice. All the same--] I'm sorry I didn't let you know sooner. I intended to call from the Marsiva, but I misjudged how long I would be there for. You're all still here, then?

[That's relieving.]

video;

[unbearablynaive]

It's quite all right - it can be disorienting, can't it?

[Though at least when it had happened to him, he'd been busy trying to reconcile the influx of new memories with the way his personality had developed. It had been quite distressing.]

We are. We've gained a new Security officer, but there's still an abundance of room for old friends.

[monolike]

Makie, welcome back! How do you feel?

video

[therewerefifty]

I've been... healthier. [It's a sort of delicate dryness. Sorey came in with her that first time when she was sick. That was a long time ago, now.] But I am doing fine. Hello, Sorey. I hope you've been well.

video

[monolike]

Things got a little rowdy for a bit, but I'm just fine.

I don't know if we can do anything for long-term solutions, but if you like I can bring Mikleo over and we can try casting some healing artes.

MAKIE! [After how long they've lived together she really shouldn't be surprised by how loud Vash is just in general. He sounds honestly happy and excited to hear her.] I'm so glad you remember us! What ship are you on? Do you think you'll come back? Or would you like me to bring your stuff over to you?

[He thinks she'll probably want her instrument back.]

Video

[therewerefifty]

[Given so little time has passed for her, his loud greeting barely fazes her, past the initial jump at the sudden increase in volume.]

Always so full of questions, Mr Vash. I fear if I did not come back to the Twin Roses, it would be grievous insult. [Dryly.]

Video

[goldenglasses]

[He would have been surprised if she didn't answer him dryly.] Well, I won't lie and say I wouldn't be disappointed if you didn't come back, but I also understand wanting to try out something new.
