oK,
gOOD,
yOU ARE DEFINITELY STILL HERE,
yES, iT IS ME, tAVROS,

[Excuse her for a second, she's just... going to reread that to make sure she's not seeing things.]

I'm so glad.

[--Whoops.]

I don't mean that I'm glad that you're trapped in the tower again but [She's just happy to see him again, okay?]

I was afraid something happened to you.

iT'S OK,
i UNDERSTOOD WHAT YOU MEANT, wHEN YOU SAID YOU WERE GLAD, bECAUSE, i AM KIND OF GLAD TO BE BACK, iNSTEAD OF WHERE i WAS,
bUT, yOU DON'T HAVE TO WORRY, bECAUSE i AM HERE AND OK,

Oh. Okay.

I'll try not to worry.

Molly disappeared while you were gone. I remembered how the two of you were going to go see what was going on and I thought maybe you had both gotten in trouble for it. Did they say anything to you before you were sent away?

nO,
i AM PRETTY SURE THAT THAT WAS NOT WHY i LEFT,
bUT, iS mOLLY REALLY GONE,

Oh. I'm not sure if that's a relief or not. What do you think the real reason was?

I'm not sure

but it looks that way. Romeo was searching for her after she went missing but as far as I know he never found her.

i AM NOT SURE, bUT, cONSIDERING THE TOWER, iT PROBABLY WASN'T FOR A GOOD REASON,

oH,
eR, tHANK YOU FOR TELLING ME THAT, tHEN,

Probably not.

I'm sorry. I know it's not something you wanted to hear right after you got back. I should have waited.

nO,
iT'S OK,
tHAT IS SOMETHING THAT i WOULD LIKE TO KNOW ANYWAY,

I guess it is important to know. I'm still sorry that it's the truth.

yEAH,
iT'S, nOT REALLY A FUN THING TO KNOW, tHAT SOMEONE HAS LEFT,

Yes.

[... Well, that brings her back to something else she's been wondering about.] So your world really was destroyed when you went back? Like the others said?

yEAH,

tHAT IS WHY, i AM KIND OF HAPPY TO BE BACK, eVEN THOUGH THE TOWER DOES THINGS,

I can imagine.

Do you think it was real? After what the tower did to us before it wouldn't be that hard to believe that it might be a trick. [~~In fact it would be very, very easy to hope as much--~~]

[And then, he swaps it to video. He'd rather talk to Namine this way, rather than through text.]

... I'm not sure. It felt real, but... it is also the tower.

[--Blink. Well, okay, then-- if that's what he wants to do, she'll follow suit. She tries to greet him with a smile, but it's a weak one.]

... Mm. It felt real when it wasn't, too. [...Yeah, there's no smiling after that.]

[Nods... and he's doing it because it's easier to talk about this, exactly, through video.]

... Yeah. It's hard to trust anything, when it is from this tower.

[Firm nod.] It's... amazing, how much control they have over us. [Amazing in the Worst Possible Way, that is.] It makes me wonder what it is they're really trying to accomplish.

I kind of wonder, too. Especially after the experiments that happened.

....

... Sometimes, it seems like they could be studying the heart.

... The heart? Like, the organ type of heart?

[She shakes her head.] No. I meant the other kind of heart.

... If they want to study that, I am not sure if, er, this kind of method is a good one.

Me neither. It's just... it seems like so much of what they do is designed to upset us. [And that has to do with the heart and emotions, doesn't it?]

Unless... they want to see how much we can take?
