I've been wondering, Scorched.

[ Arthur has been training since before the sun rose: it's visible in the flush across the bridge of his nose, the way his blond bangs are sticking dark to his temples, the slouch of his usually straight-backed posture. But he needs a break, a distraction from his own mind, from the questions that have been plaguing it without concrete answer. ]

Say that the Door started — temporarily — working the way that all doors should, and we could all trip merrily back to our own worlds.

[ A breath, considering whether he's really going to ask. Despite his slightly laconic tone, he knows how depressing some of the answers he'll get will be. But he still wants to know: ]

Would you stay here in Anatole?

Or would you go home?

I thought you would like to return.

I see.

For the same reason you think it is good that I will choose to stay?

[ For a second she looks as if he had slapped her, that he would use her nightly terrors like that. There is evident hurt in her eyes before she narrows them. ]

I do not. In fact, I am sorry that I ever spoke to you to begin with. About the future or about the result of my so called naps. Not a mistake I'll make twice if this is what they've been reduced to. I learn from my disappointments. You need not concern yourself, I see no reason for us to talk if anything anytime soon.

[ she ends the feed with that. ]
