Finally. I was beginning to see the hospital walls in my sleep.

Um, I haven't gotten a chance to meet most of you yet, but I wish to offer thanks to those who had helped me back when I was fighting. I know it's been a while, but... I only now have been deemed healthy enough to wander about. I would also like to offer my services now that I am well. Though I don't know how much use I will be, but I'll try.

... I don't suppose anyone can catch me up on what's been happening? I kind of missed out on most of the news while in the hospital.

[[OOC: OMG sorry for blipping off the internet for so long. Let's just say Wendell was in the ward until now to excuse my stupid absence. GHH let's start catching up]]

Yeah.

...So, why are you fighting them? The Colossi, I mean. I'm here with Imber because it's as good a place as any, and I care about all the other battles we get in, but I haven't heard from you before.

[A brief darkness flashes across Wendell's smiling face.]

I... lost someone.

[bakaribbon.livejournal.com]

Oh.

...if it's any consolation, you're not the only one...

[hold-r1.livejournal.com]

Heh... I suppose not. It doesn't hurt any less, knowing that. But thanks for trying.

[bakaribbon.livejournal.com]

Oh...

...Who were they to you?

I-if you don't mind me asking.

[hold-r1.livejournal.com]

She is...

[He flinches.]

She was my world. I don't think I'll ever stop loving her.

[Wendell suddenly looks self-conscious.]

Sorry...

[bakaribbon.livejournal.com]

Oh...I don't think I've ever had anyone like that.

But...if you ever need any help, moving on...I'll be here for you.

[hold-r1.livejournal.com]

You would know if you did.

... Thanks.

[Wendell doesn't sound like he believes he'll ever wish to move on.]

...

Wendell...I've been to a place like there before. And while it wasn't as bad as what you must be feeling...you're going to need to heal the wound in your heart if you want to enjoy life.

[hold-r1.livejournal.com]

[His expression hardens.]

Right.

FFFF TALKING ISN'T WORKING

[bakaribbon.livejournal.com]

...I'm sorry if this is a bit dark, Wendell...

[This...isn't going to get me anywhere...]

uh...What sort of stuff would you do for fun? Back home, I mean.

BAIL OUT BAIL OUT

It's not your fault. Life sometimes is cruel.

[Wendell does seem eager enough to latch on to the subject change.]

Archery, I guess. Though it isn't solely for fun.

[bakaribbon.livejournal.com]

Really? That's cool! I never got into it, but I admired the people who did.

It started from a need to hunt for meat, but I found it a relaxing hobby as well. It's not exactly complicated, but it's not easy either... Same as any skill.
