"Heeey, you've reached Yang! Well, actually, you didn't reach far enough, 'cause I'm not here right now! But don't yang up! Just leave a message on this baby, and I'll get back to you soon enough, okay?"

You can't just flop by me? I'm still ten kinds of sore...

[ She worked hard, dammit. ]

[undaunts]

[Just have a muffled:]

No.

[And then, after a moment...]

I lost you.

[And she couldn't find Yang again, after that initial meeting.]

[flaredo]

...

[ Well, she's just going to roll over and sling an arm around her sister.

Yeah, she'd been worried too. ]

You know you'd never really lose me, right?

[undaunts]

...I know.

[But it was still scary, even if she's fine now, even if she knows that Yang would never disappear on her. They're fine now, and that's what matters, and Ruby just sprawls out on the bed with a sigh.]

But I just wanna lay here like this for a bit.

[flaredo]

That's fine.

[ She's the same. Worrying about Ruby, about Naoki, who had lost a friend... it's nice to just take the time to sprawl here with her sister. ]

[undaunts]

[... And, quietly, even as she settles here more:]

Thanks.

[flaredo]

I'm glad you're safe.

[ She's just going to move her hand to stroke her sister's hair. Yeah... this is a lot better. ]

[undaunts]

You too.

[...]

Not that I was worried! ...Except, I guess I was a little worried. [She can't help it. Yang's Yang, but losing your sister in that crazy place was still scary.]

[flaredo]

I had Naoki fussing over me, I was totally fine.

Next time, though, they need to drop us in an easier place where it's harder to lose people.

[undaunts]

I think so too. It was just wayyyy too big down there. Up there.

[... ???]

O...ver there...?

[flaredo]

Just... there.

[undaunts]

Right. Just...there.

... Let's not go there again for a bit.

[flaredo]

Absolutely agreed. In fact, let's just veg today.

[undaunts]

Definitely. Vegging. Perfect. Let's veg like....broccoli.

[thanks ruby]

[flaredo]

Let's just veg like us first, okay?

[ Ruby no. ]

[undaunts]

... We can veg like us, that's fine too, I won't argue that.

[flaredo]

... We should've grabbed Zwei.

[ ... Whoops. ]

[undaunts]

[And, slowly and agonizedly--]

Zweiiiiiii! Zweiiiii! C'meeeeereeeeee!

[Don't make them come and get you, tiny corgi.]

[flaredo]

[ What, ho!

... A distant bark. ]

Is that protest?

[undaunts]

[...????]

Whaaaaaat!

Zwei, get your furry butt over here!

[Bark. Bark.

Zwei pls.]

[flaredo]

... I vote you go get him. [ She doesn't wanna moooove. ]

[undaunts]

Nooooooooo.

Noooooooo.

Nooooooooo.

[flaredo]

You jumped on me. [ slow and dramatic. ]

I'm too wounded to move.

[undaunts]

Pfffff.

Pffffff.

That's what I have to say about that.

[flaredo]

And this is why you're gonna go get him.

[ Brat. ]
