[They tell her it's safe here. However, she has been told many times that a place is safe, and many times such a statement has been proven false. In other other world, such caution would be viewed as paranoia.]

[On Alternia, you sometimes cannot be paranoid enough. Especially not during war.]

[So while she smiles politely to her guide and thanks them for all that's been done for her, the Dolorosa's first act is to immediately hide away as quick as she can. It's a skill she's practiced long and hard on after so many years of being on the run. There's still 'royal' blood on her clothes, after all, stuck beneath her claws and on the edges of her skirt. The state of her weapon will have to be checked on soon.]

[But her main priority is inspecting this curious little device they gave her. There is some experimenting, and she remembers some old tricks Psiioniic once taught her. She never quite caught onto computers and hacking like he always excelled at, but she knows enough to get on. Finally, she has it figured out well enough, she thinks, or at least as much as she's going to at this rate. So she starts to write her words on the mirror, script fine and elegant.]

[But it's not jade. And it's not her quirk. She has enemies everywhere, might even have them here. So until she can find her own allies or evaluate new ones, well...]

oOo Well well well this certainly is interesting. oOo I never thOught of myself as a spacertrOll but here I am On an entirely different wOrld. oOo Name is Natkun Zavija, denterrOrist at yOur service. oOo Any Other trOlls abOut? oOo Might get a bit lOnely if I'm the Only One of my kind. oOo

oOo Retry Of that, actually. oOo
oOo I give nOthing but respect tO my hemObetters but yOu need nOt answer. oOo
oOo Maybe I'm a peculiar sOrt but I prefer my blOOd on the inside. oOo

[She writes and erases quite a few times before finding the 'voice' for this fake individual, this imaginary denterrorist, satisfying. And if any of her allies are there, hopefully they'll spot her little message in the last three sentences. The little nickname her not-so-young charge had given to her a long time ago. As she waits for messages, she inspects herself. Goodness, she hopes this doesn't stain...]

[What's that? Well, it looks like that is a video coming on! Dolorosa is doing her best to keep the mirror focused on just her upper body and face- no need to upset him with the blood on her hands and dress.]

[Even without that, however, she still looks a bit tired and worn, her hair not done as neatly as she usually would do it.]

I am more than alright. [She's not dead, that counts, right?] Especially now that I know what situation I am in and your location.

-=he follows suit, and it looks like he might cry, and he very nearly does. it's more than obvious that he hasn't been getting anywhere remotely close to enough restful sleep. he's worn and pallid, but forcing himself to stay strong=-

And Psii is with you? You're not alone?

-=because he's still ready to come after her, even if he does look relieved enough just to see her=-

[Considering she wasn't taken from the verge of torture, Dolorosa looks to be in much better condition in comparison. She wishes she could reach through the mirror and touch her boy on his cheek, hold him close. Her mind has to remind her that she'll get to do so in due time. Until then... She does her best to keep a smile on.]

I'm in a safe location, and he's in the nearby vicinity. [Probably. She hasn't checked, but she also hasn't moved.]

Look at you. I am forcing you into the nearest resting area when I can get my hand on you.

-=between the stress and guilt over everything he's heard since coming here, he's been making himself sick=-

Theres too much that needs to be done still. I'll rest later.

[Dolorosa makes an exaggerated thinking sound, tapping her lip.]

What an utterly peculiar occurrence of the mind, I swear I have heard such utterances from you before. Oh, that is correct, it is because I have.

If you try to do everything that reaches your ever eager little aural canals, then you will exhaust your poor bloodpump completely and end up getting nothing done at all.

-=he chuckles softly, having said that very thing to someone else not long ago=-

I never thought I would have ever missed your prattling on so.

Prattling? I am insulted that you would think of it in such a manner.

[But she's teasing as she says it.]

I could almost go on to say it was incessant.

-=and which one of them talks the most?=-

Incessant? Just for that, I do not believe I will partake in the creation of a certain jellied confectionery which I believe you like.

[Still Signless, it's the Kankri in him. But being raised by Dolorosa probably just made it worse.]

Now you're just being cruel.

-=poor woman had no idea what she was in for=-

Fair retaliation, my dear, for unkind words on your own part. Perhaps if you ask in a suitably polite answer when I arrive, I could be persuaded to make a batch.

You need to arrive first. Safely and unscathed.

I will. I have always been able to handle myself come what events may. Now just rest your head, close your oculars, and I will be there when you open them again.

-=if she thinks he could possibly sleep while she's on her way, she is sorely mistaken. or deluded =-

I'll see what I can do.

[It is more just old habits that never die. She knows it is kind of hopeless with him. Gently, she touches the mirror with her fingertips.]

Stay safe, my little grubmonster.
