17 - [voice] Return to the land of the living

[Zuko turns his communicator on, but there is only silence for a long time. He doesn't really know what to say. After a while, he speaks, voice quiet and flat.]


I'm... back.


[.......]



I apologize for having worried you.


[And that's it. The communicator shuts off with a soft click.]

[There's an awkward silence, and a little bit of Yuuri fumbling with words, trying to figure out the best thing to say. Eventually he inhales deeply.]

[After he exhales, he finally speaks.]

I'm... glad you're back.

[forged_anew]

Yuuri...

[Guilty silence, but it seems more should be said here, so finally he manages a quiet response]

...guess this is the only good thing about this place.

[Yuuri nods, but since you can't see that, it's just more silence.]

Well... let's just hope that doesn't happen when I get my chip out, yeah?

[voice] - awkward Zuko is sad and awkward :<

[forged_anew]

Yeah...

...wasn't pleasant.

But hey! I'm back in Horton now! You should come visit when you're out of the hospital. Or I can visit you, either way.

[voice]

[forged_anew]

I'm home now, actually.

I never want to go back to that stupid hospital.

I'll come visit you soon, then!

We're still trying to get stuff organized at the moment and Wolfram wants to spend more time with me or something.

[voice]

[forged_anew]

Okay.

I'm in 115.

[Sorry to sound like he doesn't appreciate it, Yuuri. He does, but he's just very... dispassionate right now.]
