[arora]

I cannot request a status update, but I can reassure you that everyone who has left here has returned to the moment they left their homes.

[levelshift]

[He should just leave it alone, there's no way anything good can come from prying, but that stupid hollow ache that pops up whenever someone he likes leaves isn't letting him.]

Have you ever tried requesting one before?

[arora]

No.

[levelshift]

Then can you? It's only a couple names.

[arora]

I will make an official request but cannot guarantee a response either way.

[levelshift]

Okay.

Asuka Langley Soryu
Laura
Fio

That's all of them. It's a pain in the ass, seeing people come and go constantly.

[arora]

Asuka had wanted to stay.

I am sorry she was unable to.

[levelshift]

[It really, really hurts to read that. She should be the one that's been stuck here for a year and a half, not him. It's unfair.]

She told me her home was shit.

You ever get tired of all these fucking people coming and going? The constant churn?

[Well, it's less about that and more about him missing important people that have left, but admitting that is a level of emotional openness he can't manage.]

[arora]

Yes.

I miss many of those who have left.

[levelshift]

It's really fucked.

[It's lonely is what it is, and if she misses them then he doesn't doubt she feels that, too. Whenever he felt like this back home Last Order was around to cheerfully insert herself into his day, but she isn't here so there's just a big void instead. He can't stop thinking about that, as exhausting as it is, so after a couple of minutes he sends another text.]

You know any card games?

[arora]

No. But I am quick learner.

[levelshift]

I know a few, so I can teach you sometime, if you want.

[arora]

I would love that, thank you.

[levelshift]

Ok.

[It feels so strange reaching out to someone, let alone doing it for normal socialization reasons. But it'll be good for both of them.]

I'll grab a deck of cards next time I'm at one of the convenience stores.
