Looks like I got caught in one of those other rifts that are hanging around. How are you? Has Chicago been okay to you this month?

You know the room number if you want to come by or you need anything.

You okay, kid?

Fucking sunshine and lollipops.

Business as usual, then.

The rift still been throwing things at you?

[Locked]

[damagedone]

Pretty much.

Surprisingly, people are more my fucking problem right now.

[Locked]

[burkethejerk]

Want to talk about it?

[Locked]

[damagedone]

Not really.

[She is really trying to avoid dealing with Leon and everything. She knows Peter means well and, hell, even cares. But this is something she just doesn't want to drag him into. It's fucked.]

It's complicated.

[burkethejerk]

Complicated usually means talking it out would help.

You know how to find me if you change your mind. [A very brief pause, before the last few words are added:] Or for any other reason.

Safe and sound. I did meet a reindeer, though.

Is everything okay with you?

[Locked]

[burkethejerk]

Please tell me it didn't talk. Or have a glowing red nose.

Everything's fine. At least the worst part this time is only having to adjust to the new date. I've been with El since I came back yesterday.

[tornadoinheels]

No, it didn't talk, and it was sans nose, but it did have a sleigh?

[burkethejerk]

Free sleigh rid? Well, there's definitely worse things that have come through.

[tornadoinheels]

I thought so too.

Did you at least go anywhere interesting when you disappeared?

locked }

[burkethejerk]

I didn't go anywhere. One minute it was December 27th in the morning, the next it was January 27th at night.

Apparently that happens sometimes.

[Locked]

[damagedone]

It also means wanting to stay away from it too.


Okay. It's not likely, I dunno.





But thanks, I guess.

[tornadoinheels]

That sounds ... unfortunate.

[burkethejerk]

That's one way to put it. At least it was only a month.

locked }

[tornadoinheels]

That's true. You could have missed a year.
