LAST SEEN SOMEWHERE IN THE WOODS

[Envy would be perfectly happy to forget that creepy news broadcast. Hypnos are the last thing he wants to worry about when there are already flying dinosaur skeletons and killer glitch Bidoofs out here.]

This time doesn't seem as bad as the last one...not that it's much better, but still.

[There's a pause as he takes a moment to put a hand to his face. And then he lets out a brief, quiet laugh. It's not a humored noise, and it's tinged with exhaustion.]

I've gotta wonder if this kind of thing happened in this world before we all showed up.

[audio]

[foolishwren]

Yeah, no. It's not as bad. But I still don't like it.

_{[At that she trails off, though. With a sigh.]}

... Yeah. It does make you wonder, huh.

[audio]

[exeggutorhead]

Us foreigners, always breaking everything, huh?

[He pauses, and then just sighs. Man, he's too tired and too sick of being lost to be funny. Then he mutters more quietly:]

I'll look out for Henry.

[He's not the best person to be looking out for anyone when he can barely look out for himself out here, but he'll do whatever he can. Henry and Heather are his friends, after all, some of his last remaining.]

[audio]

[foolishwren]

Thanks.

I-- ... dad AND I will really appreciate it.

... Henry's like a brother at this point, y'know?

[audio]

[exeggutorhead]

Figured as much.

We'll be out of here before you know it.

[At least, he really hopes so. He sounds confident as anything, but in reality not so much.]

Just watch out for skeletons in the meantime.

[audio]

[foolishwren]

Heh. I'll try.

You too, okay?

[audio]

[exeggutorhead]

Ha, you don't have to tell me twice.

I'll see you around.

[He puts down the phone. BACK TO SURVIVING.]
