Phase Twelve: ...And Back Again

[emorangerpink]

[The Chalice is still moving west across the Pacific when a few familiar faces arrive in the hangar, hot on the heels of a familiar ship heaving in to range over the horizon. The Nirvana's back to supplement the Chalice's mini-fleet again, and it doesn't take long for a shuttle to bring the three tourists back aboard, along with the supplies and souvenirs they've brought with them. The three are as refreshed as you might expect after a couple of weeks' vacation in a place like Meijire, but Laura's also looking concerned at what she could see of the ship on the way across, and what she sees in the hangar.]

So - what happened while we were gone? We didn't get much news after leaving London... and it looks like the Chalice has been through a lot...

((OOC: Laura, Lily and Dita have arrived back on the returned Nirvana! This thread is for people wanting responses from Laura alone, or for more than one of the trio. Dita and Lily will both have individual posts up shortly.))

I'm glad. Things get a little rough here... it's good to be able to take a step back every so often and just take time for yourself.

[She shakes her head.] You missed... a lot. New aliens coming to kill us all, me finally getting my act together, Celestial Being getting in a big fight, us finding those people that live in the underground villages again, it turns out Mad is actually Hana's younger sister, I'm actually in a marginally more healthy relationship with Hana now, and I spent today recovering from having a vivid nightmare of Mad murdering Hana right next to me.

[The girl takes a breath, and sighs.] ...I was doing better, you just happen to have come back on a bad day for me. [She's shaking just a little, but she seems to catch herself, and it stops.] This was, um, kinda why I wanted to talk about you. It's less depressing.
