[possidetur]

Are you still present in this place?
-- Vanessa

[donkeyballs]

I'm still here, don't you worry.

Doin' a little better than most, too, I think.

Glad to see you're still around too.

You holdin' up alright?

[possidetur]

I am now.
I'm relieved that you're still here. There have been people disappearing.

[donkeyballs]

Disappearing as in the teleportin' thing that Hank got footage of? Or disappearin' as-

Well, you know.

The slow route.

[possidetur]

I don't know, I didn't see it. I simply know that they're no longer here.

[donkeyballs]

I'm sorry, Vanessa.

I've noticed people disappearin', too.

But if they got teleported out, there's a chance they're still on the station - in cryo somewhere.

[possidetur]

Perhaps. I was hoping it would cause them to return home.
Can we ever know? That they're safe in one way.

( and not dead )

[donkeyballs]

I honestly don't see how, but - Apollo seems to think they might be goin' home, too.

If we ever find the device that does it, we might be able to figure out what it does and how far it can send people.

[ But he's pretty sure 'back in time' isn't one of the options. No need to say so, though. ]

[possidetur]

It brought us from our homes. Should it not be able to return us?

( otherwise she'll have to get used to this time -- this existence )

[donkeyballs]

Honestly, darlin, I don't even know how they managed that one.

So I don't rightly know. I'd just be guessin'. Best to keep hope till we actually know what's goin' on.

[possidetur]

Hope is a fine thing.
Your guess would be better than my own. I believe you could find something, or at least guess with some accuracy.

[donkeyballs]

Without somethin' concrete for me to look at, have Amos take apart and Naomi delve into - my guesses ain't that much better than yours.

I'm three hundred years out from you.

But these guys are three hundred years out from me.

[possidetur]

I haven't heard of anyone closer in time.
Have you examined the beds in the medical bay?

[donkeyballs]

Since I came back, you mean?

No.

Honestly they kinda creep me out so I keep my distance.

Might be worth you havin' a look for your friends, though.

[possidetur]

( considering that she's the "psychic" it embarrasses her a little that she hadn't thought of doing such a thing herself )

I can try. I don't know how much I could learn.
But I will let you know.

[donkeyballs]

Just be careful around those things, alright?

[possidetur]

As much as I can be.
I long to be home but not on such terms.

[donkeyballs]

Yeah I've been tryin' not to think about the implications of it, to be honest.

Let me know if you need any help.

[possidetur]

I will, thank you.
Is there anything that you need?

[donkeyballs]

For everyone to feel better and for this station to stop tryin' to kill us.

In other words, nothin' you can offer. Thanks for checking up, though.

[possidetur]

Let me know if that should change.
Even for something small.

[donkeyballs]

Yes, ma'am.
