I tried tellin' him that he should try being a bit more trustworthy of people, but he called me naive! Can you believe it? I was just...he's impossible!

[She huffs. Even if this is over the phone, it's too weird. She wants to like him, really. He's been helpful. Almost nice once or twice.]

I don't think he'd ever protect me, even if I wanted it. He's pretty focused on you. You guys...don't have a history or anythin', do ya?

[weda]

A history? No, nothing like that! In fact, I had only just returned home before I came here. So we had only just met. And really, even then, he spent more time with my son than with me.

I...see. Geez, that's even crazier! Why would someone like him go crazy protecting someone he's just met? And he's causin' you a lot of problems, too, right?

2/3 I'm a liar

...[hold on what]

[nankurunaisa]

W-when did you have a son?! Why didn't ya ever tell me?!

[weda]

Ten years ago.

[ She starts out cheerful enough, but slowly her tone turns just a little somber. ]

I guess I didn't mention him because he isn't here too. I heard that no time passes back where we're from originally, but I'm still a little worried. I can't just run home and check on him from here.

[nankurunaisa]

...I had no idea.

[Now she feels bad. She never stopped to think about how hard it must be for other people to be away from their families. She's glad she's only calling. She looks miserable right now.]

I never even asked what your family was like or anythin'. I'm sorry, Weda.
