Excuse me. For those familiar with Emperor Peony, he is no longer in the village. All of his things are also gone, so I can only assume he went back home.

[As if she could've missed Dist's previous entry. Anise sees this written one not too long after, and her heart just. Breaks for you, Nephry.]

[Normally, Anise would opt for a voiced reply. But seeing as Nephry wrote this out, she might as well keep it that way.]

At least he's finally back with his real rappigs at home?

[written]

[offallingsnow]

I'm positive he's much better off there.

[written]

[galddigger]

He'll be back to his country, too! But ruling a country's hard work. I hope he remembers not to slack off.

[written]

[offallingsnow]

He has my brother to keep him in line.

[there's a bit of a pause, before Anise starts writing again. Because it's not fair to think that both of them are back home, now.]

I wish we could go back, too.

[voiced]

[offallingsnow]

[The only way the right sentiment will come across is if she says this one]

So do I.

[voiced]

[galddigger]

[Voiced replies are good.]

Are you gonna be okay? I heard Dist over the journals, so...

[voiced]

[offallingsnow]

I'll be fine.

[voiced]

[galddigger]

I wish I were there, Nephry. Sounds like you really need a hug. And somehow I don't think it'll be nice hugging Dist of all people.

[voiced]

[offallingsnow]

[something of a smile] I think I'll last until you come back.

But right now, please try not to say those things about Saphir. He may not show it in the same way, but he's upset about His Majesty too.

[voiced]

[galddigger]

But he's always upset about something. And hugging him is just weird...

[voiced]

[offallingsnow]

I don't recall saying anything about hugging him.
