We're all back from Eos. I don't know how it was for everyone else, but I got to live in a house with two beautiful women and a charming young man. There was a baby, too, but we had to leave her behind.

Now I'm in this flat that I moved into not long before we left for Eos, and it's fine, really, but it seems a bit empty. I know it won't be that way for long, since I'm very much used to living alone, but I wonder if anyone else feels a bit off after sharing a house with other people for a month.

And is it weird if I miss her? I know she wasn't a real baby, but she was so cute and sweet. Wherever you are, I hope you're doing well, little Violet.

[ .. oh.

Oh.

Fabian didn't quite expect to encounter this many weirdly relatable videos out of the blue on the network, but there it is. Reading those words stuns him enough with surprise that it takes a few moments before he can even write up a response..

Especially one that sounds relatively casual enough to not give too much away. ]

yeah it feels weird doesn't it
we were supposed to take care of those babies for ages
and now it's all just gone

[100more]

You had one, too?

It is strange, yes. All those days spent worrying about it, protecting it, and now that's over.

[maximumlegend]

i did
i mean i was not particularly attached to it
it's just

[ There's an indication that Fabian is typing for a few moments, but it takes a bit for the next part of his message to actually arrive. ]

it's complicated

either way that other place sucked
can't say this place is much better though

[100more]

Complicated is the right word for it. This place can be complicated, too, I suppose.

[maximumlegend]

a bad kind of complicated though right

do you see now what i was telling you a few months ago about this place
it sucks

[100more]

In that, we are in agreement.

[maximumlegend]

well i am glad you see it that way
because some people here still don't seem to
and it's driving me nuts

[ .. Sorry, Hob.

Seems like the teen just needs somewhere to vent for a moment.. Get his big boy feelings out.. ]

it is as if they don't even realize that some of us are having an awful time

[100more]

Some do seem to be treating this like a good time.

But for others, maybe things are so bad where they come from this is an escape.

[maximumlegend]

how could things possibly be worse than this
i come from a place where the world nearly ends on an annual basis and i assure you that this place is far worse than spyre could ever be
at least there they do not force you to do anything

[ Fabian may or may not conveniently be forgetting the concept of.. you know. Laws.

Then again, it's more that he was taught by his dad to generally disregard those. ]

[100more]

Well, someone told me they're actually dead back home. So, maybe this is preferable to.. that.

[maximumlegend]

[ .. sorry, Hob.

The next message you receive may sound a touch unhinged out of context. ]

well can't they just be revived then

[100more]

I... don't think so?

[maximumlegend]

i mean all we have to do is find a cleric
or maybe not even that
since this place already revived them by taking them here right
so they can just be put back into their own world now they have been revived and they should be fine
i have never seen a revived person suddenly die again unless there was a new cause of death

not that i am a cleric so i may not be an expert but it only seems logical this way

[100more]

Presuming that's even what would happen. I mean, I'm not divine, so I can't say where they'll go when they return home. It would be nice if they would simply continue being alive, but we can't really count on that being the case. They may go back to... wherever they were.

[maximumlegend]

well that would be even better

if they are getting out of here that way then good for them
i would even say i am almost jealous

[100more]

Jealous of being dead? I think you have some things to work out, friend.

[maximumlegend]

what would be so bad about being dead

i would just go to hell

[ .. sorry, Hob, you're just getting the absolute wildest texts at this point. And Fabian doesn't even realize how wild they might come across to any other person out there who's actually normal. ]

[100more]

[ Hob is amazed and can't help but chuckle. ]

Most would consider that the worst possible thing. Unless hell is different where you come from.

[maximumlegend]

i don't know

what is hell like where YOU come from??

[ Might as well have some comparison material.. ]

[100more]

I've never actually been. I just know the stories, but who's to say they're right?

[maximumlegend]

it's really not that bad

like yes sure some people get tortured there

but other people are having a great time so i guess it's just like any place outside of hell in that regard
