[RING RING]

Can I come over?

Lyra? Yeah, come over whenever you'd like. ...Are you sure you want to...? I thought you'd want to stick by Clover after all that.

We're fine.

I need to make sure they put you back together right. No arm sticking out of your forehead or something.

[l-laughs]

Do you think I'd be lying around at Lily if I was messed up somewhere? It's all fixed, promise. But if you need to check, come see for yourself.

No, but.

I'll be in in a second. I was already outside.

[LYRA...........]

...See you in a second?

[whenever she does walk in there is absolutely an arm sticking out of his head, but he has both of his normal arms and it's stupid and janky enough that she can tell it's an illusion]

[Listen. She at least stopped to ask for permission instead of just barging in. And then she just stares.]

Lethe—

[makes a "come on in" motion when she just stares]

Hey, Lyra. How are you doing?

[She's going to just launch herself at him ok, wrapping his arms around him in a super tight hug.]

Better.

[hugs her back, reflexively checking for injuries as he does. is she still a cat girl,]

Good. Make sure you take it easy still, okay? Don't overdo it.

[she is still a catgirl yes]

I'm not the one that got hurt... nothing happened until Rubato launched us all back.

Yeah? Really? I'm glad you guys had such good luck.

[he sounds, frankly, relieved]

It must've still been scary, though. You did a good job holding it together.

It wasn't even good luck... that one Weed, Your Name, was the one that got us to where we needed to be. I don't really get why she helped us, but...

[she shakes her head]

You're the one that died, though. I'm more worried about you than me.

I appreciate it, but I'm fine. Really. You don't have to worry about me.

Weren't you fighting with Your Name? And she still helped you guys out?

I'm going to worry about you.

... I was. I kinda threatened her a little admittedly, because I told her that I stopped Zenith from just going and killing her... and that I wouldn't stop him if anything bad happened to us, but... I just wanted to make sure we'd be safe.

[...pats her head]

It's not a bad thing to want to protect your loved ones. Just as long as you know that you shouldn't go around threatening people all the time. Special occasions only.

I'm pretty sure minesweeper-but-real is a special occasion...

Exactly.

Did you have any of your numbers change, by chance?

[she shakes her head]

Not as far as I know. Numbers were changing?

[hmmmmmmmmmmm coolcoolcool]

Hmm. I wasn't really paying attention, so I don't know. Don't worry about it.

You can't just bring that up and say "don't worry about it"...

I can. I'm frail and injured and you have to be nice to me.

[he is physically completely unharmed still]

I'm being nice to you right now! Doubting you doesn't mean I'm being mean.

It does. It's cruel and unusual punishment.

Do you want anything to drink? I was just going to make some peach juice.

... I don't need anything. I just wanted to hang out with you for awhile.
